Uhm, if I got blindside tackled by a padded athlete, and then speared in the side with a helmet from another athlete, IF I was able to even get up to eject them, I'd be doing a lot more than yelling slurs at them. Why that ref didn't go and beat the ever loving shit out of them I'll never know.
With people like that within the sport, it makes me just wonder how much people think a game is that serious of business. 'He needed to pay!'? Holy shit, it's a sport, not like he embezzled your money or murdered your dog or something.
But if a fat red neck with a mid-back pony tail dropped an n-bomb on you, it make take a slightly different tone. Again, completely out of line, especially the second dude coming in hot, but makes slightly more sense then just being mad about a call or two.
Probably because he's a grown man with enough capacity for rational thought to realize that would be both wrong and a terrible idea. Yep, an ambush of physical violence is certainly going to show that racist how wrong he was in his opinion of them.
I've seen plenty of bad calls lead to some criminal charges here in Canada, in the good old hockey rink. Race doesn't have to come anywhere near it in order to make people react stupidly or violently.
I'd be floored if there were any racial slurs thrown, or even if they find out race played a factor in any part. In San Antonio you're legitimately more likely to get into a fight with someone being a Lakers or a Mavs fan than you are for any kind of racial.... anything. With 60% of our population being hispanic, our street names require you to roll your Rs and you learn what the little squiggly line is over the "n" in grade school. At least in San Antonio, race is just not something that comes up, so it's never something I've considered fighting about. If anything it's more in playful shit talking during pick up ball like "Hey Del Negro fuck you mother!" "Yeah El Chapo I fucked her all over those enchilladas you gonna serve me after the game."
This happened about 45 minutes away from me. Apparently she's never heard of a purse. http://www.wacotrib.com/news/police...cle_e9fe2a9e-13f1-5d26-9fff-ac9fc8bf72d1.html
If the ref were a woman, she'd be able to use her vagina-pistol to murder them and then shout a primal female shout at everyone else to sit the fuck down and calm the fuck down. I bet the poor guy couldn't shit his ass-revolver in time from its safe, feces-coated Ziploc bag in his lower pyloric canal.
Unless of course they're completely full of shit, and are using the race card as an excuse for having sand in their vag over their teammates being ejected. It's so easy these days for someone to do something psychotic, and then say "Blah blah he used my TRIGGER blah blah what choice did I have?" Even if he was using racial slurs, you file a complaint, you don't try to severe the spine from the skull.
