We have, the HQ is sure, all had run-ins with siblings...
Maybe, we've been shot at with BB guns or had to be pushed out of a tree or something...
But this one is a little new...
Tampa Bay Bucs receiver Mike Williams was stabbed in the thigh and the suspect is still on the loose...
His brother...
Here's the overnight report...
FOX 13 News
The Bucs reaction is understandably tepid:
"We are aware of the situation that occurred at the residence of Mike Williams and are working with him and the authorities to get additional information. While we have limited knowledge at this time, our primary concern is for the safety and well-being of all involved. We will refrain from further comment until we can get a better understanding of the situation."
Keith Morelli's coverage for tbo.com is hyah and he caught up with first-year GM Jason Licht:
“We’ve reached out to Mike; we’ve yet to hear from him,” said Licht, contacted Monday at the NFL owners’ meetings in Orlando. “From what I understand, he’s been treated and released, so that’s a good start.

Thiago Silva Arrested After SWAT Standoff
((HT: WSVN-TV))
MMA'er Thiago Silva allegedly made threats at a jiu-jitsu studio late last night and, then, eventually created a SWAT standoff after he barricaded himself in his home...
Silva was arrested after the standoff and was charged with aggravated battery with a deadly weapon, two counts of committing and/or attempting a known felony that could cause death and resisting an officer.
Prior to being booked into jail, Silva spoke to a photo journalist, as he sat in the rear of a police car. "She wanted my money. She wanted my house and she wanted my money," apparently referring to something with his wife.
Silva is being held on $10,000 bond and is expected to appear for a bond hearing later Friday...
