We love the movie Office Space. How can you not? And the performance at the end of the half this past weekend by the now-fired Lane Kiffin screamed Office Space! to us. So, the main character in Office Space, Peter Gibbons, gets hypnotized and never gets snapped out of it. He starts to not worry about keeping his job at Initech, and basically lives his life the way he wants to - circumstances be damned. In carrying out this lifestyle, there’s a great montage where he knocks down a wall of his cubicle so he can see out the window and comes into work mid-day only so he can clean a fish on his desk.

Well, this past Sunday, we’re pretty sure Lane Kiffin was cleaning the proverbial fish on his proverbial desk. Up 15-0at home on the Chargers, Kiffin’s team had the ball at their own 36 with about 30 seconds left. JeMarcus Russell completes a pass over the middle for 6 yards to the 42. The Raiders have one timeout left, but Kiffin holds on to it. He doesn’t urge his team to get up to the line and run one more quick play either. Of course, everyone assumes, then, he will let the clock run out and be happy with a 15-point lead.

Then, with 1 second left, Kiffin calls timeout. OK, fine - it’s well known how strong Russell’s arm is. On last Hail Mary heave, right? This is about the time when Lane Kiffin brings in the wet, slimy trout on his desk and pulls out the filet knife. Kiffin sends out the field goal unit so Sebastian Janikowski can attempt a 76 yard field goal. That’s right, 76 yards. The longest made in the NFL ever is 63. Even Kim Jung-Il has never claimed to have made a 76-yard field goal.

Janikowski’s kick comes up woefully shirt, not even reaching the goal line. Of course, then the Raiders have to try to tackle Antonio Cromartie, who last season ran back a failed long field goal attempt for a touchdown. They did manage to keep Cromartie out of the end zone (it would have been awesome if Kiffin ran out to make the tackle!).

We can only imagine that Al Davis sat up in his box, watching Janikowski trot onto the field, and said, “Ummmmm, yeah, I’m gonna need us to tell Lane not to come in this week, mmmmm-kay?”

Unfortunately for Kiffin, it looks like this week Al Davis had a case of the Mondays. If only he had worn more flare!
