Saw a first in high school football tonight. I won't mention team names but, this was a truly classless, dangerous act of anger by an out-of-control individual.
Visiting team was getting spanked by home team 24-0 in 1st half. Home team runner is tackled around the neck by visiting team defender. Visiting team defender literally puts a choke hold around the neck of the runner (aka World Wrestling Federation). Despite continuous efforts of referees, they could not pry defender off runner. Finally, players and refs frantically pry defender's arm off from around the runner's choking neck-hold. Runner is out cold, 100% UNCONSCIOUS! Lays on ground for 10 minutes gathering breath.
Referees toss the defender out of the game (obviously) but, he keeps charging back in to the fray wanting to continue the fight. Coaches and players had trouble holding the strangler down. Finally, he is escorted out of the stadium and to the school's bus.
Me thinks that this horrible spate of anger might end this jackass' high school career either by the MHSAA and/or his own school and, might possibly result in criminal charges. Folks, it was THAT ugly.
This was beyond mid-field bickering, sucker-punching or even a team brawl. This player crossed way, way, way over the line. Too bad. So Sad.
