They showed this on “Fox & Friends” this morning and were wondering if the person in the costume could have been hurt by being tackled without warning from the back. Obviously at that point they didn’t know. Jamal Adams announced he was doing it for all Patriots haters out there.
The person turned around at the last second and was hit from the front, then pancaked by 200 lbs of muscle. People who pooh-pooh that either didn’t watch it or have no idea, none, about physics.
They also said the mascot later tackled him, but we don’t know if it was the same person in that outfit.
He sounded like a bit of a jerk and then walked away, but I just saw that as ‘showmanship’, I don’t think he knew the person was hurt at that point.
I know he is a Jet, but I give him the benefit of the doubt and assume he was trying to just do some showmanship, but didn’t realize his size and weight as he did that on some PR pffice person inside that costume.
I admit I could be giving him too much leeway, but...I really don’t think he meant to hurt the person.
