You would have a hard time getting to proof beyond a reasonable doubt of either.
The fact that Adams was pissed off about the game mitigates intent. The clumsy mother****er caused the encounter and Adams was entitled to use his hands to protect himself. He pushed him too hard, but how much time did Adams have to decide how hard he would push the stupid clumsy mother****er that was not supposed to be causing collisions.
And there ain't no ****ing way that nebulous ass injuries like headache, whiplash and possible concussion are provable beyond a reasonable doubt when everyone knows the financial incentive the clumsy mother****er has to lie about these medically undetectable injuries.
cmon man. He already confessed twice plus there is a video. Jfc it is just misdemeanor assault and will probably be plead down to something insignificant. He will have to pay the guy a nice settlement though. [Reply]

Oh. My. God. What if it was a black/Hispanic/Asian tranny? That identified as a spoodle?
You are being a complete dumbass. If it was a woman he would be roasted over the coals. I’m trying to prove you you that the excuse of it just being an emotional reaction is complete bullshit. [Reply]

So what? Is there a rule somewhere in CP that says I can't be facetious? i must've missed that one.
And if we're going down that rabbit hole (which would be stupid), what kind of woman are we talking about? Does she look like Gracie Hunt? Or does she look like Roseanne Barr?

If she was female she would have watched where the fuck she was going or dropped the gear when losing balance instead of death gripping it.
Death gripping it may have protected the clumsy motherfucker from a sprained or fractured wrist, but it was interesting to see how much effort the clumsy motherfucker put into not dropping the gear. Too bad his dumbass made no effort to pay any attention to where he was going. [Reply]

You're a fucking moron.
Davante Adams is a growm ass man and has no right to shove someone because that person just happened to be crossing in front of him. He was able to stop and that's where it should have ended, but the entitled little bitch was throwing a fit because he lost. He acted like a child throwing a tantrum. [Reply]

In what world does being mad about losing a game justify battery? [Reply]

But I've had whiplash twice, both from car accidents. My father was my physician for the first one because i was still in HS. The thing about whiplash is that for a young healthy adult it usually requires an acceleration/deceleration moment that's hard to replicate by being pushed to the ground by another human being. Even a NFL WR. If it were that easy to induce, you'd see NFL players suffering from whiplash during every game.
Now, it's possible the kid had some prior injury/condition that made him more susceptible, but then why doesn't he ever grab for his neck? Whiplash hurts. A lot. You're going to reach for your neck when it suddenly feels like someone shoved a red-hot nail into your neck. That's just basic reflexive reaction.
I would've bought the sprained ankle thing, or even maybe he broke his tailbone, since he fell on concrete. But whiplash? Concussion? having experienced both multiple times, I just don't see anything in the videos that support those claims, not even close.
I agree. Camera guy is a pussy.
Doesn't matter though. Adams was very much in the wrong there. He should be suspended and he should be fined.
I'm sure he'll be found guilty of the ordinance violation.
Beyond that though, I sincerely doubt the camera guy had any legitimate injury and more than likely faked the shit out of it hoping he could score a few bucks, which he undoubtedly will.
In the end, is what it is. He didn't push himself down. [Reply]

All true. Except I won't call the kid a pussy. he is seemingly a money-grubbing unethical pos, but apparently that's worthy of hero worship these days.
Just a little surprised that so many are just "drinking the Kool-Aid" this kid is spouting, when there's almost no evidence to back any of it up. I mean, I get we hate the Raiders, but come on . . . [Reply]
