“Here is a sense of how quickly things are changing in Oakland: Yesterday, #Raiders coach Jon Gruden told people AB was not in their plans for Monday. Now, I hear… there is a real chance he not only does not get suspended but actually plays. Wild times”

Racism is ugly regardless of the target

Dont ever bite off the hands that feed you

Give me my money Gruden!

@johnniebeee if i walked into my hot bosses office and called her the N-bomb i’d be working at pizza hut doing deliveries on a bike

I traded Mike Williams straight up for AB yesterday.

Is cracker more or less derogatory than n-word-er?

@GamblingDebt87 it's very true

@androo829 way less

What’s the n word?

Fair is fair. You aren't a slave and I'm not a slave owner. Let's squash this bullshit race shit

@GamblingDebt87 no doubt bro

AB IS SMART to a certain extent, he thought about that 30 mil and started begging

Cracker is like red kneck, so not really a horrible word to use. The N word stands by itself, no comparison.

@Double Discount yo self! Haha you still can’t say it to your GM

@NATIONALLDAY I guess that blow up the other day was that Cracker Ben Roethlisbergers fault?

I smell BS. I think this whole thing -- the helmet, the threats, the tears -- it's all being staged for the benefit of Hard Knocks, which is being staged for the benefit of the Raiders' brand to nationalize it before their move to Las Vegas.

I know you can't, but it's no where near the N word.

Hard knocks@is over

ABCTE

the latter is more derogetory than the first because of it's negative connotation used throughout history. as well as people's use of the word today -- it's more negative than endearing -- even though most people still use it in that light

Doesn’t matter what the words are. Its the intent

It’s all about his guaranteed money, he clearly didn’t read his contract and once he found out they could void all his $$ the apologies came flying

@gdelisle no one would ruin their reputation for viewer ratings...
