Arizona Cardinals star defensive end Darnell Dockett was injured for his team's game in Oakland on Sunday, meaning he had to stand in street clothes on the sideline while Raiders fans hurled insults at him and his teammates all afternoon.
Dockett, however, got the last laugh -- and then some.

The Cardinals won, 24-13, to drop the hilariously pathetic Raiders' record to 0-6. Raiders fans are the only ones whose NFL team hasn't gotten a win yet this season, and Dockett used a whiteboard and marker to remind them of this sorry fact in the game's closing moments.

Come on, people -- let's get a slow clap going for Darnell Dockett here. Way to hit it out of the park, big fella.
And lest you start feeling bad for Raiders fans, Dockett offered this bit of explanation for the sign after the game via Twitter.
Raiders fans talk about mother , father , all types of shit come out there mouths, and on top of that throwing things. But no surprise to me— DARNELL DOCKETT (@ddockett) October 20, 2014
Raiders fans threw coins and ice at us, called us every name in the book. That's what made me write the sign.— DARNELL DOCKETT (@ddockett) October 20, 2014
It's the smiley face is that really puts that sign over the top, and earns Dockett our early vote for the NFL's MVT -- Most Valuable Troll.
