Karma........and cell phone video, social media.😉

The most disgusting thing about that video, beyond that guy's disgusting and reprehensible behavior is that none of other bystanders didn't step-up and shut him down (in some way, shape or form). And, I'll not presume that the woman's 'friend', sitting next to her was necessarily in the wrong in not taking more assertive action. Quite possibly with the hope and desire that the guy would cease (and not exist). I've seen scenarios where that can be a preferred inaction so as to not escalate and ruin what was supposed to be a pleasant (and expensive) venture.
Please, don't start on the whole overgeneralization of "all Philly fans...". It's not true nor accurate. Despicable humans are all around.

PA-PLAYA But Greg Olsen's voice is like fingernails on a chalkboard to me.

His voice doesn't bother me. His shared "thoughts" can be quite annoying. And, I can get quite perturbed when my eyes see a bad call or worse, a bad no-call and then the 'commentators' endorse the BS.

rsvman2 And Romo's voice is more annoying.

Ironically, while I subjectively despise Aikman, I like Romo. Maybe it has to do with their success or lack thereof? I enjoy Romo's football-informed-descriptions and explanations.

Local sports talk guys were kicking this event around this AM. Apparently the girl's fiancee was wearing a body cam of some sort. The offender was indeed a despicable person, or at least his behavior was.

Philly fans are barely top 10 worst in college and pro football anymore. It is funny the old Vet had a jail in it.

I dislike all of these teams.

From what I see, there are no 'real men' in that pic anywhere. Try that around me, and small/weak as I may be at this point in life, I'll die trying to kick your ass. Even if I don't know her.

I never blame whole groups for what 1 person may say or do.
I'm not in politics.🤣😄

"You're exactly right, Jim." Drink every time you hear Romo say that during a game and you'll be dead.

Here's an unofficial teams ranking based on fist fights. They include a number of categories like most likely to start a fight, stop a fight, win, lose, etc. 😂

An understandably sensitive issue for Eagles fans but that's a team that nobody wants to see do well unless you're an Eagles fan unless they're playing Dallas. It's just true.

I feel bad for Colts fans. Most likely to lose a fight. Don't travel to Philadelphia Colts fans!

sdandrea1 😩gawddam.....more stats!
Will the fighters be bracketed?

Who "wins" a fight when they paid $$$ only to be charged and convicted of a felony, lose your job, face your family who counted on you to support them? Got it. What a useless ranking, proven by what method?
Truth is there's a tiny percentage of people who don't know how to act in public and are definitely making alcohol-based decisions.

That's the ticket, right there!!! We'd all be so much better off. Now, about the Chiefs they're not all Patrick Mahomes.

WTF is wrong with people? Can't we just go to the game, cheer for our team, respect others, be nice. Why is everyone so angry?

Par4QC

sdandrea1 It's why I don't drink....go into bars, even if not drinking. Not even for 'bar' food.
Always 'that' person in every one, and 100s of 'those' people at any/every game.

Unfortunately, there's more to this story. The backstory doesn't change the pathetic behavior but, adds a bit more context. The culprit remains the culprit. But the woman's male partner initiated some low-level smack talk that escalated... It all sucks.

I'm fairly sure, that ranking article was in jest. I certainly didn't take it seriously.

Sad truth. 😮‍💨

Par4QC

professor 😄Yeah.....no there's also Travis & Co..

This next game, imo, we should see the real Mahomes. Not the wannabe from the regular season. That guy....wasn't much.

I'm not surprised. He went to the game with a body cam. Could be he trolled the whole incident.

professor

Par4QC That guy....wasn't much.

Strength of the team remains the defense. Just like all Andy Reid teams.

Hence him not stepping up to stop the abuse? Regardless, one can't blame the troll if you keep on taking the bait, right?
