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.”

Who knows what the NFL policy is until Colin Kaepernick gives his final approval.

Brown is going to lip his way right out of millions of dollars.

Why are they screwing around with this delusional fool. If he does play he will probably just go through the motions. Can't he be sued for breach of contract?

The punishment is having to watch that crap...live, on game films or otherwise! I actually tried to watch that game last night and it was impossible! Imagine if you (I) paid top dollar to go to the stadium to watch that! A HS footie game is more entertaining!

Nothing. They talked about making that a rule, but ran into the problem that half the league uses them in a way society largely approves of. Of course that rule would have only applied during games. Practice has only the rules the team wants.

If you believe the latest on Twitter, the team isn’t going to do a damn thing to him.

If so, looks like the inmates continue to run the asylum

I guess you're right. Jay-Z rules the NFL and Kaepernick, Nike.
