On Cable: “I have no idea about what the coach did or didn’t do, nobody does,” Romanowski said. “All I know is I just talked to him for 10 minutes and I like him. I’m going to tell you that straight up. He’s a straight shooter, and I said, ‘Hey, if you need anybody to help you out, I’ve got your back.’ It’s one of those things where when emotions are high, logic is lost. I don’t know what happened and I don’t even really care. All I really care about is the Raiders going out and playing good football. If it takes 100 fights out at practice to do that, great. I don’t care. I’ve never been in a training camp where there wasn’t a fight.”
On San Diego Chargers running back LaDainian Tomlinson: “LaDainian’s done, I’ve been saying it and he’s done, OK? He’s done.”
On the Raiders organization: As far as football goes, this is my team. I played for both of them but I’ll tell you a true story. When I left and retired, I got one call and only one. I was close to a lot of people, close to a lot of organizations, and it was from Al Davis. He didn’t thank me for just being a Raider. He thanked me for what I did in the NFL. He spoke as an owner and as a part of the NFL, that ‘guys like you made the NFL what it is and I appreciate that.’ I love Mr. Davis, I do. Sometimes when you’re in the media and you have to talk and do interviews, you have to be somewhat critical of things you see out on the field but at the end of the day I want to see this organization kick ass. Because at the end of my career they let me play for another year and a half.”
