From a more than reliable source involved in this case... The kid was in a scuffle with another teammate and they were fighting and the coach stepped in to break it up and caught a punch. After the kid hit the coach he knew he was in trouble and went and sat on the bench and waited because he knew the police were going to be coming to get him. Now in my eyes, I dont see it as bad now that I know the whole story. If you have ever played competitive sports, had a competitive job, or anythign like that - you know that tempers flare up (especially in football). This kid effed up and accidentally popped his coach. Had he reeled back and knocked his coach out then I would be right where most of you are in the fact he shouldnt have made it to the bench... Does anyone know my last name?
