This most recent melee has to be the most comical of all. Apparently, Heyward and Villanueva had varying opinions on how the final season of “Game of Thrones” played out.

It’s none of the media’s business as to what causes fights at training camp and, for that reason, players keep fairly tight-lipped; so, it’s doubtful the medieval fantasy series was the real reason for the feud. Onlookers say that Big Al threw some hard hooks before the fight was finally broken up. Talk about passionate GOT fans.

“There’s no place for fighting in training camp. It’s childish and unprofessional for both of us,” Villanueva told the media. “Again, it’s just a very different opinion that he has of the show.”
