"drug deal" idea- No Way! If a drug deal was going down or went bad, u think the cops would have been called? The victims aka people involved in a drug deal would stick around to wait for the cops to get there? Maybe ask the cops to retrieve their dope because it was unfairly taken from them?
I would have to assume this kid knows first hand the passion, love, tradition and loyalty of our fan base. On the other hand, i would also assume the victims are aware and a little afraid of the few crazy idiots that call themselves fans. People that would somehow blame these innocent young adults for loosing a few football players. People who might send death threats to someone who is not playing up to there potential. It is unfortunate but almost every large entity of people have extreamist.
I think this kid handled things very well. Btw the police report is not the same as an offical statement.
