Oh Jebus, he didn't call Phillips a million dollar N, did he?

With all the dogs in the stands, that would be the perfect way to honor her memory.

Aaaand Brandon Phillips has now said that it was a "misunderstanding." He and Hughes spoke today and everything is A-okay now.

"Nothing to see here...."

He said they spoke about what was said. He also said he realizes people say things in the heat of the moment. He certainly doesn't backtrack on his statement from last night.

I don't know, but you throw out some vague cry of racism....they talk and now it's all good just like that? Then it must've been nothing major to begin with and turns out it was a big overreaction on Phillips' part.

Oh no!!

So he "thought" that he called him "boy" and then took to twitter to cry racism.

C'mon, man.

lol..that's it? Man, you'd think someone who'd call out another team for being little bitches wouldn't end up showing he's one, too, but that's life.

Pretty weak on BP's part, if that's true

Would it have been better to be called 'girl'?

In bp's defense being. He's from georgia the second worst thing you can call a black male is boy, right behind the million dollar n word.

This.


Wasn't there an NFL player a year or so ago who said a ref called him boy too?

Absolutely. Phillips views on that word, growing up as a black man in the south, are a lot different than ours, growing up white men in the north.
