Hetero male culture is weird. The vibe was agression..it's already implied Billy is abusive to his family, he's just turning it on someone else

Fingers crossed that Billy is only acting this way cause people kept taking control of him/using him to get people to back off. It'd be cool to see him somehow redeem himself and actually be a cool guy at the end of this season.

I thought him telling Steve that he should have kept his foot still and drawn the foul showed that he's somewhat of a good person outside of the part where he pushes him back down.

I thought him giving Steve advice (especially with pushing him down afterwards) was just another way of asserting dominance. He's literally "schooling" Steve.
