This was a dick move. Even if it had been by the female Saints fan sitting next to the dick in question.

Oh it was a #### move no doubt. But the outrage is more because of the context.
Players get to keep the ball when they score a TD and do what they want with them.Apple Jack said:
They weren't in his seat. They were standing in the aisle, the ball was clearly intended for the woman, he knew that, waited until it was tossed and then used his size to push her out of the way and take the ball. Clear **** and classless move.
Coming down to the front row in your away gear is a #### move too. Again, go back to your seat girls.
It's a ### move to come down a few rows to catch a football that your team is trying to throw to you? Please. The fact that it's a road game doesn't mean a damn thing. It shouldn't make any difference at all that the game was in NO. Quit defending this dbag and trying to place blame on the victim.
I'm sure there is a tv in his local area. If this is getting national attention I'm sure it's even bigger wherever he is.
Agree. Victim in the true sense of the word may imply more harsh actions but I was at a lack of better word. Regardless of how anyone wants to spin it she did nothing wrong and this guy was clearly in the wrong. I can't believe anyone would try to make it like she did something wrong.mikel0254 said:
I actually deleted my post to avoid get into a pissing match with someone on the definition of "victim". Good to see we agree.
He looked like he spends the whole week sitting in his stadium seat, waiting for another game to start.

It didn't seem to me that he was saying anything other than "I'm a selfish jerk". The ball was clearly being given to the lady and he snatched it away. That makes him a doosh in my book.
One way to look at it, but I forget in the rule book of life rule 126 says: A person must let a fan inside your stadium get the ball that the rival team is trying to give to them as a celebration. In no way should a fan defend its home by not allowing a team to showboat in your house of fandom by taunting by going up to the crowd and rubbing it in.
They're not showboating. She's a person who roots for the Bengals, is excited to see them doing well for once, probably travelled for the game, and is getting a touchdown ball from one of the guys on her team. That's what sports is about.
There are no rules for class, you either have it or you don't. The Saints fan in question clearly doesn't.
brohan it is only hard to imagine if you can not for some reason imagine lambeau and the good people of the state of wisconsin take that to the bank bromigos
brohan was not giving it back even when your own fans were cheering for you to give it back also just instinct long story short the only stint in htis one is how bad that guy stincs as a human take that to the bank brochachos
Right, actually the Mad Hatter and Batgirl sit near me, so does Rob Ryan, not kidding.
Truth. You don't know "old man strength" until you've seen "old man parade strength."
That would have been hilarious....
I think leaning over and popping open a Tom Benson umbrella to deflect the ball at the last instant and then doing a little Benson Boogie to celebrate would have earned him instant enshrinement in the Sports GIF HOF.
This actually happened to me on a much smaller level 3 years ago in Arizona. I was in a Texans jersey around maybe 10 people in Cards jerseys at the tunnel where the players went back to the locker room after the game. One of the texans linemen (no clue who it was) saw me as the only texans fan, took off his wristband and tossed it to me. One of the cards fans grabbed it and refused to give it back. Not sure why he would want the armband (not really sure why I did either, but I did!), but he was a huge d!ck about it and it almost caused a fight.
When I was a kid an elderly lady in a lawnchair drilled the tip of an umbrella into my hand as I went down to get a doubloon. I'll never forget that.
I have to laugh at anybody remotely promoting the concept that fans somehow have to defend their house from opposing fans. No respect, none.Jerry Curl said:
