    I hope he gets kicked in the nuts and banned from attending future games. Guy seems like a royal douche.

    Will someone explain to him that Metcalf never spoke publicly about the incident?

    I'd love to meet his lawyers because they sound like some real winners. Once he realizes the opposing counsel will get to depose him and he will have to divulge the reasons he was at the game and why he was attempting to provoke Metcalf, he just might think about dropping the case. Do they have slap laws in Michigan?

    How big of a loser do you have to be to provoke a professional athlete into extorting money from him?

    Yeah, unfortunately know a handful of people like this walking through the business life. Sucks. The kid that pokes the bear then sues when the bear gives him the claws. Super awful archetype of human being... Coward and a douche lol Unfortunate.

    Yeah sure DK went ballistic because this guy called DK by his legal name, perfectly logical lol

    unfortunately this scumbag a-hole will get alot of money through a settlement, thats just the way it works unless multiple witnesses come forward to confirm DK’s story

    This is a distraction Metcalf doesn't need going into next season. He already can be hit or miss on game days.

    Hmm… I seem to remember a video that of the “superfan” telling the other fans near him something like “that was the goal” immediately afterwards.

    Exactly. To win a defamation suit, you must prove that the defendant a) made a false, defamatory statement of fact; b) published it to a third party; and that c) it did damage to your reputation.

    That you're experiencing C, does not make A or B a reality. The lawyer taking this up must be really hard up for that retainer.

    I think he’s just hoping for a settlement. If I were the Steelers and DK I’d bury him in legal fees, filing motion after motion.

    But he looses nothing

    If DK sues him then he has to hire and pay an attorney and he could be forced to pay

    You have seen the ads in tv

    Lots of lawyers will work on a percentage of what you win

    That scum bag isn’t paying a nickle out of his pockets

    Now if DK sues him it’s a different story

    Exactly. DK should just be on defense here. Any countersuit would be non consequential for Dk if he wins unless that clown is rich.
