Report: Antonio Brown confronted Mike Mayock in middle of practice, called him 'cracker'

We know a little more about the dust-up between Antonio Brown and Oakland Raiders general manager Mike Mayock and, not surprisingly, the details aren’t pretty.

Brown saw Mayock, who sent Brown a letter informing him he’d be fined for missing a workout before the Raiders’ preseason game in Canada, watching practice on Wednesday. So during practice he initiated an argument with Mayock, according to ESPN’s Josina Anderson.

During that argument, he called Mayock a “cracker,” Anderson reported. A day later the Raiders leaked a report that they were considering suspending Brown, who wasn’t at practice Thursday. The Raiders listed him as not participating in practice due to “conduct.”

What comes after "cracker?"

Watch Richard Prior and Chevy Chase on SNL to find out.

Seeing how the league had no problem with ty hill and his child abuse allegation of I seriously doubt they would back up the raiders if the suspended this bum. Management 101: never kowtow to a prima Donna. The stealers did and eventually just dumped him.

I don’t believe this because I’m told blacks cannot be racist. It has to be the “white boy’s” fault.

Yep. His guarantee didn’t kick in until he plays. They can free agent his behind and he’ll have to sign for much less money.

They knew what they were getting when they signed him. No sympathy.

Supposedly, he showed up at the clubhouse today apologizing profusely. Finally figured out he may have made a $30 million dollar mistake.

That guy ain't right in the head.

it’s sad cause there are some good guys that donate a lot of time to kids and other things but there’s TOO MANY with issues.

And that’s the spotlight and you DONT WANT issues in your sport because people like me stop watching

Maybe the good guys should step forth and open their mouths or maybe they’re just too afraid.

In that case shame on them

I think Cheese Nips are racist - little yellow slanty-eyed crackers. Did they think nobody would notice?

The Raiders will win four games without him.

With him, they might win as many as six !

Jordy Nelson wanted to play one more year before retiring ... but the Raiders had to cut him to make room for this thug Brown. Jordy was getting some age on him when he reported to the Raiders and got off to a slow start. But by season’s end he was showing a lot of his old Packer form.

Still, Jordy has been guilty of the one unforgivable crime for an NFL player ... being white!

Being a White wide receiver is the sin.
You can be a quarterback, kicker, or offensive line.
Occasionally a linebacker.
