No one gives a shit about your life experience and your fake percentage numbers. In my experience, I always talk back when someone is talking shit to me.

Standing up for yourself means you’re letting the bully know you’re not gonna continue taking that abuse lightly. If it becomes a fight, so be it but that doesn’t mean that’s what you want.

I clearly won. You keep insisting that I condone unprovoked violence when I’m just defending the Rams fan who was assaulted first and defended himself. I don’t give a shit about the support you’re getting.

And I thought you went to bed.

Who is no one? I'm adding to the discussion, you seem to be the only one who doesn't give a shit or others that I respect like RP, Ziggy or Ibleed would tell me so. As far as fake percentages, how many people attend sporting events every year and how many end up hospitalized, how are my percentages fake?

I don't consider someone talking shit about my team or me supporting said team to be abuse. I laugh it off for the exact reason that others have said in this thread that you are "winning". I (and most sane people) are not going to potentially ruin our lives by getting into a fight at a sports venue because someone is insulting us or our teams. If you want to be one of the 1% that everyone laughs at and rolls their eyes at go right ahead. That is not me, just not worth it, my life is to good and happy to risk physical harm or jail time depending upon the outcome.

Myself and others called you out in this thread because you typed "LMAO!!" upon hearing that a human being ended up in a coma as a result of a fight at sporting event. Most people react differently upon hearing such news.

No one, as in no one. And it’s annoying that you act like what happens in your life is what happens in everyone else’s. Numbers like 99.9 % are fake. Should I feel left out or something that I’m not one of the other posters you “respect”? Oh BTW, I did report ibleedwhatever for his personal attack post. Respect lol.

Fighting at a sporting event is not worth anyone’s life. But you have to consider the situation. The emotions and adrenalines are high and things are going too fast for you to get the right reaction. You go by your instincts. Someone who appears to want to start a fight pushes you from behind, you retaliate. it’s that simple.

I admit that my Lmao reaction was wrong. It was my immediate reaction because of my hatred for disrespectful Niner fans. But I still stand by not feeling sympathetic about him being in the hospital because he started the whole thing. It was a small fight that ended up badly. Rams fan defended himself and he was not a clown for that like you claimed.

Again, I thought you said Good Night?

brother i got no dog in this race and i'm glad you're admitting that the lmao response was a step too far, but i gotta chime in that like, not feeling sympathy "because he started it" is kind of a shitty thing to feel and especially to say. i'd get it if the guy had some dental bills but being put into a medically induced coma means some serious damage has already been done and if he's lucky enough to come out of it alive, his life is almost surely going to be a permanent state of suffering from this point forward. over a football game.

you can feel the way you feel about whether or not the punch was justified, and i get it, mutual combat is a thing and that's for the courts to decide, but brother that guy's got a family he's probably never going to be able to provide for again. i think there's some amount of sympathy warranted here.

This is the kind of mentality that will get you killed over road rage. I think you should reconsider your philosophy.

It goes both ways. Your life is automatically at risk when hostility comes to you. So you either stand up for yourself or run away, which shows the aggressor your vulnerability.

Or one realizes that there are consequences and one avoids the altercation altogether

Imagine being an adult and getting into a physical altercation at a public venue. I think those types of people are widely considered to be assholes.

Imagine being an adult using the imagine being meme. If you’re referring to just Luna, then you have a point. But I can play this game, too. Imagine armchair quarterbacking a situation they weren’t in as if they would’ve reacted exactly the way they claim they would have. We don’t know the full details yet. But witnesses have been interviewed. The cousin of Cifuentes, the so-called suspect, was telling the media that a drunk Luna started being aggressive and for no reason pushed Cifuentes from behind. Cifuentes retaliated and punched him right in the face as an act of self-defense. Of course, that was only one side of the story. The cousin may or may not have been telling the truth. If it was true, then there was absolutely nothing wrong with the way Cifuentes reacted. The only mistake he made was not calling 911 when Luna got knocked cold. He shouldn’t have been left lying down on the ground bleeding.

Semantics. You weren’t the one that got physically assaulted first when you’re just there to have fun with family. You have every right to defend yourself if you feel threatened. If you want to walk away, good. But it’s not frowned upon if you want to defend yourself. It’s a situation where a quick snap decision is required. You can’t just simply game plan it like it was choreographed.
If it does turn out true that Cifuentes was really just defending himself, some of you need to take it back when you labeled him as a “moron who wanted to start trouble.” He turned himself in FFS, so he probably feels confident about his case.

Yeah, but would Turcotte beat up Brown now, or should he be traded for a guy who would park in a better spot?
 
Then there's this (kind of lame and a bit disturbing) SNL skit that is 40 years old. Interesting...never saw this before. Then again, I've never been into SNL all that much.

 
Curious to know the SoCal view on the NFL after not having a team for so long.
Did any of you guys continue to follow the Rams or Raiders after they moved? Before moving to LA, Chargers much?
Now that the Rams are back and the Chargers moved there, what is the general NFL vibe these days?
Thanks

49ers fans stayed 49ers fans. Raiders fans are still Raiders fans. No one accepts the Chargers.

I was a Rams fan as a kid - and as a kid I switched to the Redskins in '82 a couple of years after they moved to Orange County. When the Rams came back to LA, I switched back to the Rams.

The Rams should never have moved. I always thought the Raiders belonged in Oakland. It's still weird that they were once in LA and now are in Vegas.
