I agree that such fights are foolish and stupid.

However, I believe that this is another example of government working to control *all* events in our lives.

On principle, this should not be allowed to stand.

Most of these stadiums are public property.

Keeping the peace and protecting public safety on public property is a valid police function. The very opposite of the overreach you describe.

Seahawks fans are not like neanderthal fans of other clubs.

Then why the need for cops?

mostly well-behaved San Diego fans

Funny, I've been to most NFL cities, and the only place I had my life threatened for the crime of supporting the other team was at Jack Murphy Stadium.

I was at the game with some Packer fans, including a family with little kids, and the abuse was so bad we had to leave.

To keep the 49er fans from being stupid.

Sounds like the Seahawk org. is more concerned about it's own fans

The Seahawks say game day staff will intervene against unruly behavior, foul or abusive language and verbal and physical harassment of opposing team fans
