The majority of people on here seem to be supporting an ex-bobcat's actions. If anything, one would expect the bias to skew in the other direction. That alone should tell you something, AWF.
"If I didn't do anything, I would look like a punk." As opposed to how you look now, kid? Obviously, he is a disrespectful person both to his coaches and teammates. Admittedly, I would have just dismissed/suspended/benched the kid for his arrogance and poor attitude towards another team member (depending on occurrence). But sometimes you can't reason with an arrogant and disrespectful person and maybe the shove will be a wake up call to him.
It's scary thinking that there are people out there that think this little shove is too extreme an abusive for an appointed disciplinarian and leader to do. It's why we have so many spoiled, entitled kids in this nation today. They would rather concede all power to a kid throwing a tantrum than to spank them on their bum (where it might sting, but isn't going to do any damage - I don't condone bodily beatings, BTW).
Here's a question: if Graves had called his girlfriend fat and not good enough for him (a likely scenario based off his attitude and lack of humility) and she slapped him on the face (doing more damage than Kramer because it was bare skin contact), would you be enraged over the girl's actions?
