A 49er player was called for a personal foul in an altercation with an Eagle security staff member

[AbeBeta]

The unsportsmanlike PF call for the initial tackle was the BS part of it all. They were still in-bounds when he hip tossed him out of bounds. That should not have been a penalty. But even though the coach sort of went at him and pushed him, he went hands at his face and that is deserving of a PF call IMO. I didn't think they were even going to do anything to the coach so I'm glad he got tossed too. He, the eagles and Greenlaw should all be getting fines for this one.
NFL needs to make sure they all know that's a big no no

Not. A. Coach. Please read the thread before chiming in.

WTH?
who the ***** cares if hes a coach or just some random igglets employee? does that matter? NO it doesn't change anything that I said
stop worrying about useless facts that do not pertain to anything of substance

If that Security Guard steps on to the playing field at JerryWorld, we should arrest ham and eject him!

 

[MRV52]

Not a fair exchange. A 400 lb security guard for a player. The 49ers should have been able to pick which Philthy player to have removed from the game.

I agree with the ejection on Greenlaw. Violence in sports inherently comes with a hard boundary where that violence stops.

If you are a boxer or MMA fighter, you can hammer away on your opponent in the ring all day. But if you go after their trainers, that's going to get you a license suspension or criminal battery charges.

Even in football, there are limits on how and where you can hit players. Can't horse collar them, can't dive at their knees, etc. And if you hit a non-player like a referee or a medical trainer, like that idiot Quay Walker did, that's an ejection too. I don't see how a coach or staffer is different than a referee or medic. They are all unpadded and basically exist outside of the violence of the game.

But by the same turn, that staffer has to remain outside of the game as well. He has no business putting his hands on players, and he interferes with the game on the field by doing so. If Greenlaw hadn't put his hands in the security guy's face, I would have penalized Philly 15 yards for failure to control their sideline, and ejected that staffer. Then I'd talk with Goodell about whether a suspension from his job is warranted.

Cowboys need to hire some “security coaches” to get in the middle of stuff and provoke our opponents.

I mean, the player gets ejected and the players team gets an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty.

The coaching staff gets … dude has to go crack a beer open and watch the game from the locker room?

Sounds reasonable

I thought the same thing-ish... what's to stop teams from just having sideline people provoking players into getting ejected every time they get the chance?

Agreed on the player ejection, but man is it s fine line... I know in soccer if a fan runs on the field and a player on the field hits them, the player can be red carded.

..that was hilarious while watching the game. I was laughing.

I was saying Greenlaw in back of cop car fighting the K9

How is this possible? The league needs to come hard on the Eagles. No way in hell a staff member should be involved with any one-field activities.

It wasn’t much, but he struck him in the face.

SFO CAN GET STUFFED. HE DESERVED TO BE EJECTED!!!!!!!!
SECURITY DOOD DIDN'T DO ANYTHING.

 

[G2]

Crappy security if you ask me.

 

[bottleKids]

Security is usually not anywhere near the sideline.

Exactly my point! This clown needs to be booted for life from on field games... wait in the tunnel you bum.

 

[bottleKids]

Dude could give our Coach a run for his money on the buffet and fat jokes.

So appropriate that it was an Eagle staff member to be the first one to do something like this.

I wonder if we can convince him to come play swing tackle for us

maybe we can hire a guy to punch Hurts in the face when he runs out of a bounds as he usually does?

 

[JustChip]

Isn't that Rowdy's job?

I know he scared the crap out of grandson the first game I took him to. He was 4 years old and wanted no part of that Stephen King character.

Hello. My name is Dom DiSandro and I am the Senior Advisor to the General Manager and Chief Security Officer of the Philadelphia Eagles. I love my job. And my only responsibility overseeing security is to escalate confrontations. Pass the cannoli."

this exactly, if not why not hire a goon every week to taunt the other teams best players

The only thing I’ll say is we don’t know what was said. What both said may have led the officials to feel ejection of both was needed to preclude anything further. Something like “better keep your fat *** away from the sideline ‘cause I’ll roll it if I have a chance.”
