If I'm in his shoes it's like this say whatever you want about me Idc but the moment you bring up my family it's on I wouldn't apologize one bit if I were in his shoes.
If this was any other team, y'all would personally be writing Goodell to have him kicked out of the NFL, but since it's the Eagles, this sub is like 'ehhhhhh idk Jim...'
Regardless if something was or wasn't said can we all agree that the "shove" was super innocuous and not a big deal? If you watch the video it wasn't a violent push.
Hard not to give the benefit of the doubt when you're talking about Philly fans. They've cultivated their reputation over decades. It is well earned.
It's just an innocent mistake, the Philly fan probably just confused Shaq Lawson for Santa.
In Europe, teams are often penalized by being forced to play in complete empty stadiums when teams are unable to control unruly fans. I would love for this to happen should this ever happen again.
If it is true that Philly fans were threatening to rape athlete's family and rattling off addresses and security did nothing than the team definitely deserves severe punishment.
That's what eagles fans do talk shit and get popped
Goooo Birdssss!
If the fan was reported to security and security did nothing than this really should be a BIG problem for Philly and the NFL.
certain lines shouldn't be crossed
Like shoving fans?
Wish he hadn’t stopped with just a shove. Philly scum needs to be checked
Im confused as to the story Lawson is trying to spin here. If there were repeated credible threats against him and his family members in the past then this is something to take to the police and not the internet. I also question his ability to somehow be able to pick out this one fan by sight. If this is a fan talking shit on a sideline then bro you have to tune it out addressing it is just going to make every single away game you play living hell because fans now know who to heckle.
As an Eagles fan. Lawson didn’t seem like he did anything. He shouldn’t have been over there…But a warning to the player should be enough. I don’t care what happens to the fan either way.
I'm genuinely curious if this is another one of those cases where wishing harm onto someone is somehow considered a "death threat".
The old, "Look what you made me do!", defense strategy. AKA: "Yeah, I used sticks and stones. But words hurt".
Most people learn how to deal with being a part of a greater society in kindergarten. Most pro-athletes realize that fans want to get into your head, and distract you from paying attention to what you're being paid to pay attention to. You let them distract you, they win. If you don't want to them win, act like they don't even exist.
"I apologize but actually I don't"
He’s a liar and an even bigger bitch now lol
This guy is 100% incorrect unless he was physically assaulted The Fan did not cross any lines. This dude is a giant, spoiled, entitled prick. and I want everybody here to think of a combination of words That would make you assault a person and risk a $30 million contract get back to me with the answer. Shoot give me the 30 million I guarantee to volunteer eight hours of my day 6 days a week helping needy people until the day I have to go back to work lol.
If I was that Philly fan I would press charges against Lawson. That’s assault.
Enjoy those fines douchebag
I'm honestly surprised r/nfl is giving this asshat the benefit of the doubt. Do you not really believe the players pov?
it’s bc it’s the eagles honestly. this subreddit has a hate boner for them
"I'm sorry, but..." means I'm not sorry.
