You're willing to go to jail in New Orleans over a ball?

 

The man is being honest with you.

 

I guess the question all of us men have to ponder (ponder is my word of the day) is how much will you let another man "abuse" your woman in your presence before you act?

 

And for me, if someone takes something that belongs to my girlfriend and they elbow her in the process (even if the elbow is unintentional) that someone better be one bad dude.

Yeah, opposing teams players always walk over to opposing fans on the road and give them the football after they score...

 

Did he clearly see her? Or was he focused on the ball and trying to get the ball? I don't pay that much attention to the people around me when I'm at a ball game. If I had been him, I probably wouldn't have paid a bit of attention if I was trying to get the ball.

Y'all have fun in that NO jail. :lol2:

In my mind the jerk knew exactly what he was doing and what was happening. And even if he didn't, he should have.

You and I have been out in public before (as friends everyone) and if someone took something that belonged to you and elbowed you in the process I would go to jail defending you.

Well, while I thank you...I would urge you to just let it go. Nothing I own or MAY own is worth anyone going to jail over.

Same here...

You are welcome.

From her radio interview she said she didn't even know he had elbowed her, so it clearly was minimal contact, and that the guy was very polite and was just as entitled to the ball as she was.

 

I guess I don't see an accidental elbow as abuse. Maybe that's just me. :idunno:

RM would have laid tail out...And would have taken her football back home.:lol:

Inquiring minds want to know.

Funny story:

 

The Athletics are my favorite baseball team and have been since childhood. I went to see them play the Astros in Houston this past year as a graduation present to myself. I was 2 rows behind the A's dugout, wearing my Joe Morgan throwback and A's hat to show support.

 

Top of the first inning and Coco Crisp fouls one into the dugout. No children are around (Astros games are dead). A manager gets the ball and turns around. I stand up in my A's jersey and he looks at me and tosses it up, clearly to me. Ball falls short into the first row. I could have done one of two things: a.) dove over the seats and covered it like a fumble, b.) just bend over and try to reach it before seeing it bounce to a guy who has going balls out after it coming down from the end of the row to a seat at the opposite end right in front of mine.

 

I go with a.), tell the guy congrats with a "good hands" or something like that for the way he covered it like a fumble, then go on with enjoying the game anyway.

 

Guy who did that ends up sloshed and leaves the ball in a cupholder a few seats down from me that he and his buddies have moved into as they got sloshed. Well after the game and it's obvious he isn't coming back (i.e., post game interviews were over, nothing else like a jacket or souvenir was left there, so I give him a solid 5-10 minutes to come back and get it, and once it's obvious that he isn't coming back, I take it and leave.

 

I don't know the dynamics of how I'd react if it were a girlfriend and the contact was incidental, but I do know that if someone did what the Saints fan did to one of my children or something like that, then it'd be much more likely that I'd blow a gasket.
