White, Nickey spark player brawl during Titans' practice
By JIM WYATT

CLARKSVILLE – A brawl broke out during Titans’ practice Thursday morning after running back LenDale White spit on safety Donnie Nickey.
Nickey and White collided at the end of a play, and after they were separated, Nickey accused White of spitting on him. Several other defensive players stood up for Nickey, claiming they witnessed the same thing.
Minutes later, at the end of a play near the sideline, White was knocked out of bounds by Nickey after an incomplete pass. White elbowed safety Vincent Fuller, and several other defensive players jumped in, including Nickey again.
Titans Coach Jeff Fisher sounded off to the players, and accused Nickey of a "cheap shot."
At the end of practice, Fisher called the entire team to the middle of the field, and among other things told the players to leave the incident on the field.
Nickey and White declined comment.
As for Fisher, his comments are ridiculous. You'd think that a coach would have enough of a clue to figure out what actually happened before he makes a misinformed statement that one of his own players was guilty of a cheap shot. No wonder his team has been a non-factor for the past few years.
True. This is from the article from buckeyeman91's link.Coach Fisher apparently apologized to Nickey after he found out what happened, according to what I heard on ESPiN earlier...
Fisher said later he found out what happened, what he called a violation of the code of ethics, and he apologized to Nickey.

i didn't click the link, but the vid that i saw showed Nickey eventually taking off his helmet and clubbing White with it... :o
That's a person of color spitting on a person of pallor....Woody was talking about Romo spitting on a 'person of color,' and said 'now we have a person of color spitting on a person of... white.'
I didn't, and if he actually had said that, it would've been even more absurd than it already was.you can't expect Woody Paige to know the word 'pallor.'
