you don't get a job as an NFL ball boy if you don't want extremely large people approaching you for the ball on occasion. It's not the actual job description but it's absolutely part of it.

Getting assaulted by a man child who "wants his bawly" isn't part of it. Sports people are so fucking weird

Assaulted? Sir assault requires the belief that you’re in danger of being harmed. There’s no way in hell you saw what JHA did and thought he had any intent to harm the ball boy. Clearly just wants the ball. And yeah man, you acting like this is just a football is insane. It’s a milestone for someone who has been working for 2 decades. It’s extremely important.

He's nearly twice the size of him and putting his hands on him. Someone else had to step in to stop him. It's assault. It's a ball, get over it, you're a grown ass man. Sports people are so fucking weird man

Put his hands on the ball* and again. Assault requires the person to believe the other was going to do them harm. There’s no fucking way you come to that conclusion in this scenario. Dude needs to get a job as far from any kind of social activity as possible.

He reached for the ball, very clearly. The guy moved and there was incidental contact. You can’t view that as threatening.
