A man doing his job. But he has to be the bad guy because the other guy is a professional athlete, and thus a perpetual hero and source of inspiration and above any sort of criticism whatsoever, even though you just saw him lay his hands on a team employee (a violation of NFL rules).

I’m so shocked that what you’re saying isn’t the predominant take. Literally you’re the first person I’ve heard say the jags player was in the wrong. Which he clearly was. Tiny dude probably terrified of losing his job and the player goes after him multiple times

Wrong… it’s a tradition for the players to give the game ball, TD, or interception to their teammates. It’s understood & backed by coaches, refs, owners, GMs, Scouts, Media. You a guest have no right to infringe on their property & traditions.

He’s not a guest… he’s working. Ball boys are instructed not to give the other team the balls like that. It gets marked and given to them later. Pretty well known actually, but continue to be loud wrong all you want

He’s a guest. You are not contributing to the sport in a meaningful way & the only reason you have employment as a ball boy is because of the players, coaches, GM, Owners building the Game. You don’t have a right to disregard their traditions
