re: Video of Postgame Altercation - quality is terrible ETA - new Krag “punch” video

So that's what we can objectively deduce from the videos, now for some subjective takes. To me it looks like Faulk confronted Fisher (probably in retaliation for assaulting Krag), they started shoving each other, then Fisher took a swing at him and got his arse beat in retaliation.

I would say the most you can take away from this to refute Krag's claims is he might have been shoved in the chest and dislodged his pacemaker, but thought he was punched. If the dude isn't medically ok then enough force even from a shove can cause problems for him. Faulk got pissed because one of his own was getting fricked with by a college kid who wasn't using his head, and then some blows were exchanged.

Am I missing anything here? This doesn't do much to make Texas A&M look better. It doesn't change that they denied even knowing who Cole Fisher is, that an altercation on the field even happened even though Krag needed medical attention on the field, or that A&M coaches were on our sideline jawing off trying to start a fight. Did the man with a pacemaker go to the team doctor and then schedule an appointment with his neurologist just for attention or because he's a sore loser? Occam's razor says no, he probably got hurt at some point on the field.

Use your god damn brains

see this is the problem with the whole thing. Craig was an arse, the kid was apparently trying to remove him, Krag comes running up to them mouthing off, kid shoves Krag away, Faulk gets mad, Faulk and kid fight, Battle with a cheap shot.

Now I don't blame the kid for shoving him away, hell the kid probably had no clue who Krag was. 99% of this board probably couldn't identify him if he was sitting next to them at Starbucks. So shoving him was a typical response, Faulk didn't see what Krag did only the shove, so he goes hulk and gets punched while punching, and Battle just did a cheap shot.

You very, very clearly stated where the fault lied, and nowhere in that statement did you assign any fault to LSU. So that would be where I got that from.

Do you know what the word fault means?

It’s Craig’s fault this all started and the boys fault for bringing it to a physical level.

That has nothing to do with what I think of anyone on the LSU squads response.

The most important detail is who was at fault. Notwithstanding the fact that we just went through a contentious ending to a game.

Nobody wants to hear that Faulk could have handled it better. No shite. But it’s understandable where he was coming from

Shoving someone is a typical response that you are ready to get physical. He shoved a man with a debilitating disease and a more able bodied individual subbed in for him.

I know that’s not the point you are making, I’m just trying to give some context as well

Yes, he totally knew who it was running at him and that he had Parkinson's. Shoving someone is also a typical response when you want them to get away from you.

Oh and it is also a typical response when you are trying to keep people away from others.

The kid was pulling Craig away, Krag came running up to them yelling, he shoved Krag in an effort to push him away from Craig. If anything Krag knowing his own condition was the stupid one.

This is what I see, at least in that video.

People are acting like he knew who Krag was when they probably couldn't identify him public

I think we can all agree that Krag's didn't get punched in the chest out of nowhere

That makes me call the validity of everything he said into question, honestly.

You mean where he is jawing in the kids ear standing behind him? The kid turned around and gave him a shove to get away. Nothing about that shoved indicated he wanted to fight, he wanted the person mouthing off to get away.

You do know that not only is it possible for multiple people to be at fault, but also assigned levels of being at fault too, right?

I think given the situation, the preponderance of fault weighs heavily toward Craig and boy Jimbo
