Like I don't know anyone that would just drop a guy based on this. Was the dude being a jerk? Abso########lutely, but the 'lesson' you teach this guy pales in comparison to the risk you're exposing yourself to. The vast majority of the population show restraint in these moments, not this eye for an eye highschool BS.
Factoring in how much these guys have a magnifying glass on their every action in a DRAFT year? It's ludicrous to defend this, and this kid should rightfully be pressed on this during every pre-draft interview.
People want to call this grit or truculence? No, it's stupidity.

You know you're talking about a high school aged kid doing this right? He literally experienced highschool BS in real time...
