He responded specifically:
“I didn’t move; I was standing still in one spot, watching the final play. I wouldn’t say it was disrespectful on the players’ part, because they were celebrating, and the first two aren’t to blame—it was just a commotion that ensued with the rest of them, who didn’t realize I was there too.
I don’t think the guys did it on purpose; they just bumped into me, and I pushed them away. It was just a reaction. Of course, I heard that an attempt was made to press charges against me for assault. So it will be interesting to see what happens.”
