Jets fan arrested for cheering at Chargers game (UPDATE with Colts' game bust)

Re: Jets fan arrested for cheering at Chargers game

It doesn't matter that he didn't do anything. He's going to be charged with resisting arrest. Sort of sucks. It was nice the Chargers fans stuck up for him.

 

Re: Jets fan arrested for cheering at Chargers game

If so, then why do you suppose the Charger fans around him were defending him and repeatedly telling the cops that "he didn't do anything"?

 

Re: Jets fan arrested for cheering at Chargers game

Man, that one Charger fan was awesome "Thanks for wasting my tax dollars! He didn't do a fucking thing!"

If that guy really was doing nothing than cheering for the Jets in an obnoxious way, those cops should be fired.

The cop "who wanted to talk outside" should--and will--get it the worst.

Look at the couple behind the man who stopped the wife to exchange #'s. They're dressed in Charger blue and look like the All-American suburban couple. That's all I need to see to know that this guy was railroaded.

 

Re: Jets fan arrested for cheering at Chargers game

Yea, gotta love when cops arrest a second guy for questioning the shitty job they just did.

 

Re: Jets fan arrested for cheering at Chargers game

How was the guy resisting? The cops bent him over double to put cuffs on him. I counted four with hands on him. Must have been one big-time badass.

And did anyone else think he bore more than passing resemblance to Joe Namath?

And this has me really worried. I'm supposed to attend an NBA game this weekend with family who root for the visiting team. Should I bring bail money?

This post alone reminded me that I don't have any interest in covering high school basketball anymore.

"Three seconds! Three seconds!"

Parents are annoying as hell.

 

Re: Jets fan arrested for cheering at Chargers game

Wow, that was bad. Those cops come off looking like Rambo-style bullies abusing their power.

How would Coach K be able to do his job?

 

Re: Jets fan arrested for cheering at Chargers game

Maybe they didn't see it? Maybe they were part of the same group? It could have been many reasons. But it is interesting how quick so many people are to jump on the police officers when there is clearly part of the story missing on the video.

 

Re: Jets fan arrested for cheering at Chargers game

Ben, have to agree about your Coach K post. lol

I *know* a Tarheel isn't taking a shot at Duke's coach on a thread about opposing fans being thrown out of a game. I just know that isn't happening.
