Young and Stupid

I was gonna post it, but didn't. Parents must be awfully proud.

I thought Neal had a shot at him right before Jonesy tackled him.

Personal foul. Unnecessarily slammed the defenseless kid down after his forward progress had been stopped.

Of course Neal missed the tackle.

That reminds me of what TD is doing to Dum Du Arrigo and Fail-Ka-Rong today. Try again.

Sad thing is if this idiot was hurt by Jones guess how long it would take before a aturdney was hired and Parentals went after Jones/Packers?

Can only imagine the future young Goober has. I imagine we'll somehow be paying for it.

Right up to the point the camera zoomed in I thought it was Schwartz on the field.

I thought this was in reference to Dez Bryant and his debt management problems.

I'm sure it's coming.

Since Jones is white at least it wasn't a racist tackle.

Originally, Finley tried to grab the kid-------aw, you know the rest.

Is the kids name Daniel Muir by chance

He was wearing a Muir jersey.

Sadly, that might've been the best tackle by Jones this season.

At what point in the game was that?

I always think it's stupid when an adult does that but the kid cracked me up. kind of Home Alone-ish.

Article said at 3:44 PM, so near the end of the game. Looks like Packers are setting up for a KO after the Finley TD.

When someone gets arrested at a game do they lose rites to their season tickets?

I believe it is a distinct possibility. I would guess that it's a decision reseved by the team and printed on the back of the ticket. I know I have read warnings to that effect before on various pro sports tickets.

"Rites"

Freudian slip by a former altar-boy with "issues"?

He took it a lot easier on the kid than Mike Curtis did in a similar situation ~40 years ago, as old-timers might recall.

Hawk was trailling the kid by 10 yds.

Remember it well!

I'm pretty sure you can't sue someone when you are trespassing.

Not a lawyer, but not certain you're correct. Would imagine it varies from state to state.

Was Jones allowed to act on behalf of the Packers/security?

Were Jones' actions reasonable?

I remember Ditka leveling some fan also. The guy went flying about five yards through the air.

A Packer in the 80's leveled some fan also. There's a vid out there somewhere. Forgot who it was.

It's happened about a million times in every sport. Something tells me precedent isn't going to be set here.

My civics teacher 35+ years ago used the example of a kid trespassing to climb an apple tree. If he falls out of the tree & gets hurt, can the tree-owner be held liable?

A: Yes.

Sort of like the requirement to fence off a swimming pool for safety reasons.

My guess is that courtesy of this kid, some season tickets just became available.

So jumping out of the stands onto a football field equates to falling out of an apple tree 35 years ago.

That would be terrible.

I'm reasonably sure it varies from state to state. But many years ago when I worked as a rent-a-cop, part of our training from the Tucson PD was in gun safety and I remember the cop telling us that if we had to shoot someone make sure we killed them as that way they could not come back and sue us. So yes, a criminal offense does not prevent being sued for damages.

It sure doesn't - if a lawyer can make a case that unreasonable force was used. That case is a lot easier to make if the guy was shot and permanently maimed by a rent-a-cop who hasn't necessarily been properly trained and the guy winds up in a wheelchair.

GBF is right - he's a trespasser, reasonable force was used, and if this guy even tries for a quiet settlement, it's one of those issues where the GBP and the league would spend the money to get a claim dismissed to avoid an expensive precedent.

That kid should just explain to the ticket owners why they no longer have season-long seats and STFU. There's no claim here.

Is the apple tree on kworst's forclosed duplex?

I feel dummer for having read this thread.

Oh, you didn't need the help of this thread.

Lobbed that one.

Don't you have a full body conditioning treatment to do or something?
