it's really horrible that this story is getting that important. now, a man, who maybe only reacted on the impulse of catching a foul ball has his name displayed in view of everyone; and basically did nothing wrong.

>> only reacted on the impulse No. He did more than that. He showed his true colors when given the opportunity to act like a responsible member of the human race once his "impulse" was over. And like many MANY people these days, he "choose" to remain a Jack Ass that goes through life with no consideration of others. He is a devout member of the Nomewe tribe.

He dove over the family - risking injury to the child - to get a foul ball. He then sat in his seat and smirked about it on national TV. This was a local game - I was watching it when it happened - in toto - not the selected bits that are getting national coverage. He is - was - and always will be - an idiot. Richard

he did something stupid, but nothing that warrant his face and his name being placarded everywhere; god, we treat him the same way way criminals are.

Such an event can teach a child different things: a) He can get everything he wants because he is so cute b) concious sharing can makemakes this world a better place c) the bigger bully wins d) You can win everything if you get the masses up against your enemy e) people are stupid f) a society has unwritten rules

This child was endangered by his reckless and callous behavior. I saw the game also. He had no regard for anything but his own selfishness and maintained that attitude. I do not mind getting old. It beats all the other options that can think of.

It is not common for fans to dive over seats to get a ball, Yes reach and grab but not what actaully happened here. Taking your agrument to the next position would say all parents should lose the children if they let them get in a car. Have you ever allowed that. Or let you kids go to school, they may get hurt.

Typical Anti American presentation I must say. Reaching with a glove is not pandemonium. I do not mind getting old. It beats all the other options that can think of.
