Eagles Head of Security Banned From Field Sunday Night

[CanadianCowboysFan]

I feel bad for the guy.

He's likely going to be suspended or terminated.

well as the saying goes "consequences"

 

[Brooksey]

Is this the guy that lets the visiting teams fans get pelted by ice balls? Big tough guy

 

[FuzzyLumpkins]

Vigilante? Please stop. This is why everyone thinks our fan base is the biggest bunch of Karen's in the league. It's embarrassing.

Did he grab Greenlaw and get in his face?

Vigilante means to take the law in his own hands. It is very appropriate. In this case the NFL officials and security handle onfield incidents. He had no right as a security professional to do what he did.

I get how vigilante is used in other context but this is not that.

 

[HanD]

Vigilante? That?

This issue is if you don't draw a clear line here you risk all sorts of future problems imo.

Team staff baiting players to get them ejected. He made a mistake by getting involved and touching a player. Non players should never impact a game like he did.

Think about it, if he never got involved we are not talking about this at all. Player vs player minor dust-ups happen all the time near the sideline. PLAYERS generally break it and everything is cool. How often do we hear players getting into it with other team coaches, rare, very rare but here are talking about not another player or coach but a non-football staff employee.

B TW.......ever noticed when players are aggressively tackled out of bounds, how fast referees attack the situation?

This x 1000........all 22 players during live play.

That last bit is what gets me. He is a security executive. He has no excuse saying that he did not know better than to get involved. He knows how those sidelines are run.

His best excuse is that he got carried away but that just means he has no business down there particularly in that role.

 

[Flamma]

The NFL controls what happens during game time. It is what it is. He got blackballed. He should not have grabbed an NFL player.

He didn't grab. You can see what he does here. Which is akin to nothing. Lets not pretend it's more than it is.

That is just the end of it. He grabs Greenlaw off Brown before that.

 

[Risen Star]

It was, but nothing really happened. A little bowing up.

Boys used to just be boys, but we all know that's not true anymore.

The problem is his own team benefitted from it. They lose their head of security for the rest of the game. So what? The opponent loses one of their best defensive players.

Exactly. I wouldn't even call that a parry but more of a shield to protect himself from another strike by the 49er player, which the 49er player already had done once already.

Soprano wannabe….

This is the dumb quetion... What is the difference between the teams "head of security" vs cops on the field? Does the teams head of security have arresting powers? I honestly don't think so.

He can send you a sternly worded letter. But being from Philly I don’t think that baboon knows how to write.

 

[ThreeandOut]

Since the game is in Dallas, let him on the sideline. I’m sure the crowd would love seeing him escorted out of the stadium in handcuffs if he starts anything. In fact, they could put it on the Jumbotron. Then he can spend the evening in the Arlington jail.

I'd say you are correct.

 

[Big_D]

it’s one thing to be security, there’s no situation at all he should be that close to the field on the sidelines. He’s not there to protect anyone from nfl personnel. He should absolutely be banned.

 

[cowboyblue22]

you cannot have people on the side lines putting their hands on the players and then player gets thrown out they cannot allow this to happen

 

[Nav22]

Good.

"Big Dom" seems like a total dirtbag.

He’s from Philly, I there any other kind there?

No he doesn't. He grabs the Eagles WR.
