Wrestler attacks a coach after elbowing the opponent

Have Brands or Goodale offered him a scholarship yet ?
This crap is starting to become a real problem. I don't get people that think the taunting, etc. has entertainment value. One of the biggest appeals of wrestling to me was always that wrestlers and coaches (usually, there were some exceptions) exhibited really good sportsmanship. You fought hard - but with respect. If that's all going out the window, I don't want any part of it.
To quote Mayor Willie Brown on the Sprewell coach-choking incident: “HIS BOSS MAY HAVE NEEDED CHOKING. IT MAY HAVE BEEN JUSTIFIED…“
Edit: I’m kinda serious. Without knowing the facts, it’s hard to assign 100% of the blame.

Physical violence is almost never a justified response to a verbal altercation. Almost never. Let me provide one of the few times that a punch to the face was totally justified.
i've heard it said as "if you ever throw a punch, you're in the wrong." obviously there are exceptions to every rule, but that's one that i abide by.
One video is not convincing. Physical violence is never a good response to a verbal assault. Not until one feels threatened with harm, anyway. Real life experience.
I wrestled through the 80's and never witnessed anything between a wrestler and a coach (own or opposing) in addition the teams I was on don't recall any excessive celebrations and very little unsportsmanlike behavior. Times changing I guess
If it would help ol' Buzz, any decent bystander would rightly remember seeing the bible poke. It would be the decent thing to remember. In fact, I now remember seeing the bible poke on the video, now that I think about it.
Fightin' mad? You'd have to ask Mrs. Roar, or the best of my friends here.
I was standing right there and saw the whole thing. A Bible poke and a shove. I feared for Buzz's safety.If it would help ol' Buzz, any decent bystander would rightly remember seeing the bible poke.

Apparently, that's about how it went down, because no charges were ever filed against Buzz in spite of Sibrel's efforts to press charges.
Yes, looks like an Iowa prospect. The best talent to come out of Arizona was RBY and Chester Bennington so they can have him. Lol

This reminds me of the story about roaming gangs of thugs roughing up fans leaving the Prudential Center in Newark, NJ after an NCAA basketball regional tourney. The first thing I thought/said was that the gangs were lucky it wasn't a wrestling tournament.
Why? Some moron publicly pesters you with ridiculous questions about you, your profession and your life while having another moron following with a camera recording the interaction and you think you are going to take him serious and engage in a conversation?
This is really good advice for members of these boards. When some moron comes on here and makes a comment that is clearly designed to provoke a reaction the first, best, most effective reaction is to completely ignore it. THIS is what drives trolls crazy.
Of course he'd say that, everyone knows Isaac Asimov had no punching power and I won't even bring up his suspect chin!
Some time ago I heard it as "editorial comments" in reference to "engineering design information" from a self-effacing manager, whose feedback was limited in this way.
But he was smart enough to get out of the Soviet Union when he was only 3 years old. After that, no need for any punching power.
