    Haven't seen this posted anywhere on a recent brawl between players and fans between the Hamilton Hurricanes and a team from Montreal. Watch the Youtube clip. One dude in the stands gets STOMPED. But no charge? All I could think of was that fight a few years back involving the U of Miami (Welcome to the OB baby!)

    That was just ugly. Especially when the guy in the red sweater got thrown down a couple of rows, stomped, punched and finally K'd TFO starting at about the 50-second mark.

    "Police said by the time they arrived on scene, around 7 p.m. Saturday, much of the brouhaha was already over."

    No police were on hand beforehand? Hell, you'd think anything with a public gathering would have at least one officer present.

    I got a kick out of the dipshit (without his shell on) at 1:35 throwing his helmet at the kaos from the field, and the referee right next to him continuing to have his thumb up his ass.

    There goes Hamilton's chances of landing the Jaguars. Maybe they could concentrate on getting an NHL team. Ohh, sorry ...

    Wasn't a CFL game - a junior game of some type.
    I was waiting for someone to go Peter McNab and beat somebody with a shoe.

    I thought that was Terry O'Reilly.

    Didn't think Canadians got that fired up about anything.

    McNab was the biggest animal in that brawl. It's always the guy you least expect that gets the craziest.

    It was a game in the Ontario Varsity Football League. Kids are between the ages of 16-20. All three of my sons played in the league.
    Games are mostly attended by parents, friends and relatives. Number of kids go on to play Canadian college ball, a few get Division 1 scholarships. Good developmental league.

    Trust Hamilton not to have security guards there during the game.

    Canadians are uncivilized savages. That could never happen down here.
