Fan Smart shoved has apparently had incidents b4 & whispers are that he called Smart a "monkey". If true I wish Smart would have done more.

I can believe it.

I agree, I'm just waiting to see what was actually said before I just assume Smart is a pos.
And it's one thing when some guy out in left field is yelling at the outfielder, it's another thing when your standing face to face with them
ETA: if early rumors are true, then the fan is just as guilty IMO. Old arse needs to grow up, IF TRUE

Was Smart ever interviewed about what was said to him? Also this fan seems to have a track record of doing this kind of stuff vs TAMU

I don't understand justifying his actions based on whether a racial slur was used. Regardless, he shouldn't have done what he did

yea a guy on twitter without any evidence is a terrible source.

He only pushed him. He didn't go full blown Artest. Props to someone that can keep their cool better than that, but if the fan called Smart a monkey, he got off easily.

Smart is going to unavailable to the media for a while.

Obviously the fan was in the wrong if he used a racial term, but Marcus was in the wrong too.

It wouldn't excuse Smart at all. It would just provide a reason for him doing what he did. Both would be wrong

I didn't go to college. I'm not saying you're defending him I'm just baffled that a super fan yelling at an athlete is even part of the discussion. We've all seen and heard shite like this, who the frick in their right mind shoves them? "Hey a guy yelled at me" would NEVER be a good enough excuse to a coach and for good reason. Who the frick gets mad at that sorta thing???

McNamara is an amateur writer for some shite pelicans site I think. Really dialed in to this.

Not shocking. But, clearly something set Smart off in this situation and this fan has a history of making an arse of himself.

Time out, did you infer this from reading the first two pages where a couple people said he must have been called the n word for Smart to push him?

Who is mad that the fan said something? People obviously know that happens
It's what the fan said that people are trying to figure out
