Did Tom Cable Take A Swing At Coach...??? ESPN Version Goes Against Everything Else

Here's their version of the incident...
Steve Levy ringmasters Adam Schefter and Mark Schlereth


Which brings us to the other side of the equation...
David White of the SF Chronicle:

In typical Raiders fashion, coach Tom Cable simply said: "It's an internal issue that we are dealing with and that's all I'm going to say."

If you asked some other folks with knowledge of the incident, they'd tell you that it was Cable who clocked defensive assistant Randy Hanson earlier this month, a punch that sent him to the hospital.

If Cable did indeed land the blow that broke Hanson's jaw, he wasn't saying when meeting with reporters after practice today in Napa.

"Yeah, I can address it," Cable said. Asked if he was involved in the Aug. 5 incident, Cable repeated his previous quote verbatim. Asked a third time over the loud objections of a team official, Cable said, "I'm not going to comment on that. No comment."

Asked if Hanson was still employed with the team, Cable said, "I'm not going to comment on that."

Nancy Gay from Fanhouse/AOL has more from Napa, including how the Raiders brought out the "Rumble in the Jungle" battlecry from Muhammad Ali to back up their coach...

Now, those of us at OSG HQ ask...
Why in the world would the ESPN version differ from everyone else's...???
Again... even when Chris Mortensen's Twitter account yielded the following...

"The Cable latest scoop came from @MoveTheSticks" and "@RaidersBlog: Scoop on Cable fight from very reliable source. Marshall (dc) & Hanson were in heated discussion & Hanson got pretty nasty."

You tell us...
