Report: Antonio Brown threatened to punch Mike Mayock in face
Pro Football Talk ^ | September 5, 2019 | Darin Gantt

According to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, the argument between Raiders wide receiver Antonio Brown and General Manager Mike Mayock didn’t get physical, but it included the threat. Rapoport said that after screaming at each other Brown told Mayock that he’d hit him in the face, then punted a nearby football and said “Fine me for that.”

Another reason I’m done with the NFL.

That and rewarding thugs, like Ezekiel Elliott with big contracts, when he’s likely to be suspended again down the road.

There does seem to be more thuggish behavior in the NFL with each passing year.

Mayock is always serious. Brown is a prima donna. Pro football/sports should be fun. Mayock’s work is behind the scenes. Brown has to be seen. Oil and water.

So Jerry doesn’t learn?

Not to sign these guys with his money?

I read somewhere that the Raiders can get out of their contract with Brown over this incident. It would save them thirty million smackeroos and lots of headaches. Let the critter try to peddle blinged out donks to the brothers at that dealer out on the Martin Luther King.

AB is too crazy.

He is talented.

But crazy.

I’m sorry, but I’m going to laugh if Zeke is unable to play for one reason or the other.

Stupid to give a running back, especially one with such a checkered past, that kind of money, when there are more crucial players that need to get paid down the road.

Jerry thinks this is his last shot to win a Super Bowl, he’s desperate.

I wouldn’t be surprised to learn that Mr Brown grew up fatherless.

Jones is aging.

He may retire and let his children run the Cowboys.

He’ll never retire, he may not run the day-to-day operations, but he’s going to make all the big decisions.

Not impressed with Zeke. At least Dak and Amari Cooper showed up to training camp and didn’t make spectacles of themselves. Character matters greatly. Jerry will regret paying Zeke an insane amount of ‘ransom’ $.

Quit watching TV. It is an inbound sewer installed in your living room. Find something else to do with your time. We gave it up years ago. Our lives have improved. Listen to music, read a book, do whatever. Stop watching the boob tube / Idiot box. Your grandparents were right, it does rot your brain.

They did an analysis of running backs, on Third-and-short effectiveness, Zeke was right in the middle of the pack of NFL running backs.

They are going to rue the day.

I wouldn't be surprised that using Conduct detrimental to the team clause, Brown will be suspended and eventually cut from the Raiders. And likely no other team will touch him the rest of the 2019 season.
