... that's not the whole story:

A New Orleans Saints fan was sentenced to six months of court supervision Tuesday after he was found guilty of shoving Chicago Bears owner George McCaskey during an argument over seats last December, the Chicago Tribune reported. It was reported after his conviction that Saints fan Richard Kohnke, 58, of New Orleans, upon leaving the courthouse, reportedly pointed in the general direction of the Soldier's Field scoreboard and muttered, "Who won the game, McCaskey ... who won the game?"

Nice.

I hope that wealthy owner felt like a dip **** sitting in an actual court of law, suing a middle income fan of a visiting team for shoving him.

I wasn't there. I don't know the details. But c'mon man...

This is the first I've heard of any of this. Shoving is a crime now? And it wasn't even a woman he shoved. I don't know what words may have been said... Maybe this McCaskey guy deserved to be shoved or maybe the fan acted poorly, but either way that's a ridiculous thing to take someone to court over.

The mid west stadiums I have been to have had tighter security than an airport. Some games have seemed to have more people in security shirts than in team colors. Visiting an away stadium, sitting in the wrong seats and pushing a home towner -regardless of economic status- in the back no less? That's pure dumb ass and should be taxed. He's lucky he didn't end up in the pokey as well.

The owner could probably afford better seating anyway.

If he'd shove a over-privileged pr*ck like George McCaskey, wonder what he'd do to Roger Goodell?!?
