Collinworths says Haynesworth should be arrested!

[sjordan6]

Chris Collinsworth says Haynes worth should be arrested and charged! I so much agree with this. This was a premeditated act against a defenseless person. I hope with the T.O. mess and the unfair assault on Andre that this only rallys the Boys and have an us against them attitude.

That could be classified as assault. If it had happened on the street, he would have been arrested and charged on the spot.

I mentioned the same thing when I first saw it.

He should be suspended for a long time but that's ludicrous to say he should be arrested

You'd also get arrested and charged for assault if you threw a 100 mile an hour fastball at someone, or ran them into a wall on the highway with your car... the point is, it didnt' happen on the street so he won't get charged with assault and he shouldn't. Poor argument

Just curious. What to you would be an arrestable offense, if anything?

Would it have been as horrible if it would have been Collinsworth's head?

So if you hit someone laying on the ground helpless with a baseball bat ....it ok if its during a game?

please.

Hitting someone with a fastball and maliciously stomping on someone's face to the point of almost costing someone their sight are two completely different situations. The play was over, it was not during the game.

He should be arrested for it, just like that Hockey player was 2 years ago for slamming a guy into the ice and breaking his face

We know if it happened on the street it would be a crime, but so would laying someone out at full speed. The football field isnt the street, and cant be judged as one. 4 game suspension, 75K and whatever Fisher wants to tack on.

What about maliciously hitting someone with a 90+ MPH fastball? I think that was his point, and it happens quite a bit. That could certainly lead to loss of eye sight.

 

[zrinkill]

So I guess if Roy Williams pulls out a knife and kills someone its ok ..... as long as its on the field

When pitchers intentially hit players to make a point, they don't go for the head. Guys who get hit in the head were not intended to be hit.

No, but I'll bet Sean Taylor has checked into it

...and I'm sure Haynesworth didn't intend for Gurode to lose his eyesight. What's your point?

 

[JGalt]

The fastball comparison falls apart when you consider that the pitch is thrown in the course of game play. If the pitcher threw one at a player in the on-deck circle, I think he would be arrested. When facing a player in the batter's box, he can always say it was accidental. There is no way to prove malicious intent.

The MLB is and always will be an exception to the rules. It's the only legal trust in the US. It is America's past time, no matter how popular football gets. Why do you think the government took such an interest in the MLB steroid issue? It wasn't because baseball was the only one with that problem.

But he did try to step on his head
