What I don’t get is this: Some people spend $100 for a ticket, then are so wasted even as they’re walking into the stadium, they aren’t going to remeber anything about the game.

At home, or at Buffalo Wild Wings (which is within walking distance, so I don’t have to worry about driving), oh heck yes, beer me. At the stadium? No thanks. Live football IS The Drug. Nothing else is required.

I just don’t get why pro athletes make it seem so hard to get home with a safe ride.

This is one of them.

I understand the media should report the story and have an opinion, but to me its crossing the line to propose a monetary fine of any size for trivial comments made by a player. In no way can it be proven that these comments will result in more drinking that will cause out of the ordinary criminal behavior.

Nerds.

Encouraging the public to be substance abusers,

insisting the public break the law regarding public intoxication; Sunday liquor laws,

encouraging disrespect to ticket holders (viking customers).

It is bad enough these corporate welfare hounds keep importing criminals into the state of Minnesota,

now they want to corrupt what little morality exists in the community and their customers.

Greenway’s immoral and antisocial remarks are disgusting.

This is obviously quite criminal!

Jeez louise, chill people.

NFL: Of course we want fans to be controlled and respectful to help the experience of all in the stadium.

…but be sure that beer from our sponsors that we make tons of money on..

Fans: Hey man. Let us do what we want. If we want to drink and get drunk, then we can. It’s part of the experience of going to an NFL game right?

…until a major incident happens that ends up hurting or killing someone. Then we’ll assume that was just an irresponsible idiot fan (that we’ll judge more harshly based on what team he roots for). We’ll dismiss it as an isolated incident and while complaining for better security and shaming those who get out of hand at events.

…but don’t touch the beer.

Maybe all the commenters who are spitting at this post should think twice…

Mmm…packerfan1000, correct me if I am wrong but no one made that guy get totally drunk and he didn’t have to try and find his way home either. It is sad what happened and his brother/or the person with him (don’t recall now) probably should have left the game as well just to make sure he made it home safely.

This is exactly what is wrong with America. Greenway is just having some fun and joking…hell some teams are so bad (I should want to drink being a buccs fan but Choose not to) that is how they want to enjoy it. In America, it is still about the dollar and the owners and vendors don’t care because they get rich off everyone willing to pay for a product. Not that I agree with the excess prices or high costs, but people continue to show they are willing to pay so that is the cost. People need to grow up, take responsibility for their own choices and actions, quit relying on the government to fix everything and do it all for us, when they clearly can’t do anything for themselves besides lie, steal and further sink this once proud nation and yes, Quinn was right the other day. People need to get off the damn Facebook/Twitter/out of reality TV and unplug from the “Matrix” but that just won’t ever happen. Like sheep being led to the slaughter. Wake up people. More important things out there in this world and we need to let our loved ones know everyday that we are there for them and we care and we need to learn to lead and live our lives through love, not fear. Only then can things truly get better…but I digress…my $.02!
