re: LSU player assaults Ole Miss fan on the field last night

The field of play is for the fans. These players and coaches must do a better job of getting off the field so the fans can carry on their traditions. Nothing bad has ever happened from friendly, exuberant, fun-loving fans running onto the field. Taunting and threatening opposing players and staff. Stealing equipment. Climbing the goalposts. Tearing them down and taking them. Taking pieces of the turf or the shrubbery. It is tradition. Harmless tradition. The field is for the fans. It is the player’s fault for being there.
