It doesn't seem fair from what we see, but its just that we don't see what actually happened because of the cut out. The SD fans around him saying nothing happened is persuasive but I'd like to see what actually happened before passing any judgement.

But Christ, if thats the entire incident there's bound to be more people on the field than in the stands if this continues.

About 2/3rds of the way through the video, I posted here and say that I was surprised they hadn't taken out the second guy who was speaking up for the Jets fan. I should have waited until the end. :lol:

Ugh . . . I can't stand scenes like that.

First - about the SD Jets fan. He was just being ignorant clearly. They had fans on the local radio shows talk about how the guy was chanting jets, jets, jets and there were a lot of people who were telling him to be quiet. Well, he went on cussing and raving. Unfortunately if you're drunk, you can't be a jerk. It's against the law - plain and simple. The other guy who was cussing out the cops probably deserved to get arrested more than the Jets fan but either way, it's about a good enjoyable environment for everyone.

I don't think that either deserved to be arrested. There is nothing on the video (doesnt show everything obviously) that indicates that either fan was doing anything illegal.

J-E-T-S! = J-A-I-L!

A rabid Jets fan ticked off the wrong person -- an off-duty San Diego cop -- by loudly cheering his team's playoff upset Sunday against the Chargers.
In what has become a YouTube sensation, several San Diego officers are seen roughly handcuffing New York native Bill Carroll for allegedly being drunk and resisting police.

Carroll -- who had been shouting "J-E-T-S, Jets! Jets! Jets!" near the off-duty officer -- told The Post yesterday, "I wasn't doing anything wrong. I was just watching the game.

"What's wrong with me saying, 'Jets, Jets, Jets?' "

He said he had just three beers over four hours and cops refused to let him take a Breathalyzer test to prove he was sober.

The officers "were just totally out of line, and they wouldn't listen to reason," said Steve Sevigny, a Charger fan who witnessed the arrest.
"The poor guy was just totally busted for nothing."

Carroll, 43, a construction manager from Mission Viejo, Calif., spent 15 hours in jail.

In the YouTube video, which had been viewed more than 180,000 by last night, the former Albany and Long Island resident and his girlfriend, Brooke Powell, are seen wearing Jets gear as they stand in a sea of San Diego fans in the Chargers' stadium.

Carroll chants "J-E-T-S!" and pumps his arms.

About 13 seconds into the video, Carroll is shoved onto the seats by two burly San Diego cops as a Chargers fan yells, "He didn't do anything!" and others boo and protest.

"It was completely awful," said Powell.

Assistant Police Chief Bob Kanaski -- insisting "we don't arrest people for cheering for their teams" -- said Sgt. Jeff Sterling approached Carroll after the off-duty cop sent a text message reporting a drunk causing a disturbance.

Sterling said he asked Carroll three time to "come upstairs" to talk, but he refused and made a fist.

Carroll said Sterling only asked him once and he refused to leave the stands because he didn't want to miss the game and wasn't misbehaving.
"The second I turned around, I got pushed down and attacked by those four officers," he said.

"They took something from me that I don't think ever could be replaced," he said about missing the end of the Jets historic victory.
But Carroll is convinced there are more victories to come. "They're going to the Super Bowl, babe!" he vowed.
