    Disgraced former Raiders head coach Jon Gruden is back with his own show

    I guess enough time has passed since Jon Gruden was run out of the NFL because he has resurfaced and is back in the spotlight.

    The former Raiders and Bucs head coach and Monday Night Football analyst was most recently seen in Chiefs camp, decked out in Chiefs gear as a guest of head coach Andy Reid. Ok, they’re friends from back in their days together in Philadelphia with the Eagles.

    Well, turns out that was just Gruden dipping his toe in the water. And now he thinks he’s ready to jump in head first.

    Gruden announced Thursday that he will be hosting a new show on Youtube called Gruden Loves Football. The first episode is already up.

    It was six years ago that Gruden left the Monday Night Football booth to take the Raiders job — the same one he had held for four years from 1998-2001.

    Gruden was in year four of his 10-year, $100 million deal when several racist, sexist, and homophobic emails came out between him and a Washington executive during Gruden’s time in the MNF chair, leading to his forced resignation.

    Whether he’s forgiven for what he said — or for his terrible mismanagement of the Raiders — will be up to the viewing public to decide.
