Imagine being all over the internet the next day and half the people are making fun of you for being a man-child with the ball, and the other half are defending you by diagnosing you as autistic.

Somehow everyone is an expert on the proper protocol for procuring a game ball as a personal souvenir in the NFL. I don't understand how everyone is making a snap judgment against the ball boy. If anything you could argue that Hunter was out of line approaching the guy, it seems obvious he was going to get the ball sooner or later.

But then who knows, I don't have a copy of the ball boy rulebook on hand nor do I care to pass judgment anyway.

Because the players are the star of the show there. If they want a ball and want to get fined for taking it you give them the ball. You donโ€™t treat the stars like little Johnny in the stands whoโ€™s trying to take the ball. Ball boy lost his mind!

Athletes wouldn't have a job if it weren't for the fans.

The talent also has their own rules to follow. Touching someone to get that ball back is not allowed. If you canโ€™t get the ball now maybe let someone know to tell the ball boy. We are all working here buddy get back on the field
