Dallas Cowboys and Oakland Raiders Brawl during practice

The Dallas Cowboys and Oakland Raiders had a joint practice on Tuesday, and the action got out of hand toward the end of the session. The two sides got into a huge fight during one of the drills, and many players rushed in to defend their teammates. A pair of brawls -- one of which involved an altercation between a Cowboys' player and a Raiders' fan -- highlighted Tuesday’s practice between the Cowboys and Raiders. A melee between the Dallas defense and Oakland offense almost spilled into the pro-Raiders portion of the crowd. The Cowboys’ offense and Raiders’ defense brawled after the final play of the practice. “That passion, that’s mostly what I’d hoped what we would get out of getting these teams together,” said Cowboys owner and general manager Jerry Jones, who half-jokingly praised the remarkable power of Raiders offensive lineman Austin Howard's uppercut punches. The players pushing and shoving appeared to get very close to fans during one of the fights. They weren't done after that, either, as the two teams fought again when the Cowboys offense took the field and a backup reserve had his helmet ripped off. Though it's hard to tell from this recording, Pat Doney of NBC Dallas-Fort Worth says it spilled into the stands where Raiders fans were watching practice. And they weren't finished; there were actually two fights at practice today. This one was between the Raiders offense and the Dallas defense, but after everyone settled down, the Raiders defense and Dallas offense got in on the act.
