I still haven’t seen anything wrong in what he did. He called out another player by name. People seem to be reacting to the fact that he was ranting in an interview with a small woman. How is her size or position as interviewer his fault? In a way, it was refreshing to see the unbridled passion for excellent play for a change, instead of the PC, “Well, I got lucky,” or “They played well and we were fortunate.”
And actually they interviewed Erin after it happened, she said something to the effect that she was never scared, knew what he was talking about, and kinda felt lucky getting him to talk when he was so charged up.
That was a rant? That was going off? Sheesh. What a tempest in a teapot. That didn’t even make me blink.
I saw his response right after the game too. He came off a little crazy. But anyone could tell he was pumped because he thought Crabtree was disrespecting him on the field and he answered Crabtree by knocking the ball out of bounds. I wondered what Crabtree said to him to make him so angry but I didn’t think he was nuts necessarily, just really pumped with adrenalin. I wouldn’t categorize him as a thug because of what he said. I think we over dramatize things.
