He should have just let the Red Sox beat the shiat out of the Angels on the field.

I'm sorry, but when some guy assaults me, I'm going to beat the shiat out of him, too...

Shouldn't the other guy get an assault charge too?

just because he got his ass kicked doesn't mean he didn't break the law too. Hitting a person with anything is considered assault. Even a bucked of water can get you charged. (of course, the punishment should reflect the severity of the crime).

This will be a badge of honor for him when he walks Yawkey Way again.

I think the other guy has to press charges.
 
2008-12-04 10:43:29 AM
Yeah, he had the right to defend himself after getting "assaulted" with the balloon thing, but throwing the dude down a flight of stairs and then kicking him on the ground? That sounds like jail time is the right call to me.
 
2008-12-04 10:43:39 AM
Seems to me that grabbing the thunderstick (seriously people, if you can't make noise by clapping, stomping your feet, and yelling, you don't deserve to attend sporting events...I'm looking at you Rays fans...) and either deflating the thing or returning the "bopping" would probably have sufficed, but I can't really say I have too much sympathy for the "bopper". WTF did he think the guy was gonna do? Just sit there and take it?
 
2008-12-04 10:43:40 AM
DNRTFA, but that's bullshiat. If some asshole was hitting me over the head while taunting me, you better believe he's walking away bloody.

What's even more bullshiat is that pussy-ass LA fans didn't roll the Sox fan out once the brawl started.

This story, like the AL in general, is full of fail.

Douchebag Red Sux fans? Is nothing sacred?
 
2008-12-04 10:47:38 AM
Who hasn't wanted to hit Red Sox fans with anything you happen to have in your hands when you see them?
 
2008-12-04 10:48:50 AM
Both are idiots, but one is a "Star" and therefore should know he's going to be held to a higher standard. Sounds like roid-rage to me.
 
2008-12-04 10:48:55 AM
And the judge said..

Little Boston Sox fan I don't wanna see you picking up the Angels fans and bopping them on the head.

This is going to be one of those 200-post long "tough guy" threads, right? Where a bunch of fat Diet Dr. Pepper-drinking, computer-job-having Fark nerds talk about how they'd "kick his ass, too!" Sounds like yet another winner.

Did the Sox fans pointy head pop the baloon?

I was going to say something along those lines.

Thundersticks are the worst thing to happen to sports.
 
2008-12-04 10:53:06 AM
Wow, this guy totally broke protocol. Sox fans are only supposed to beat the shiat out of Yankees fans.

I have a computer job.

I drink Diet Dr. Pepper

There is absolutely no way I would have, or could have, kicked this guy's ass.

Some of us are realists, even on the internets.

Sounds like a good Budweiser commercial. 'Here's to you Mr. Fark thread tough guy! You may have peeled away from your xbox just long enough to type out some threatening remark in the internets, but your not fooling this FARK crowd. Not today, and not tommorrow. Because WE know your pasty ass drinks diet Dr Pepper and lives in your mom's basement. So put down that soda and grab a cold budweiser because, drinking is all you've really got, Mister.'

Cue the Internet tough guy pic.

While the thunderstick guy should have expected a strong reaction from the Red Sox fan to be sure, there's no question that the Boston fan went WAY over the line.

violence was in the cards from the beginning.
Such violent names these gentlemen have. Should have been a wrestling match:

If this guy gets three years, the person who started it with physical contact should get some sort of punishment as well. If he doesn't this will be completely b.s.

In the last twenty World Series' the AL has won 12 and the NL has won 8.

In the last twenty All Star Games the AL has won 16, the NL has won 3, and there has been one tie.

Yeah, I'm fairly certain it's the NL that's chock full o' fail.
