The father was accused of restraining the boy for an hour with tape and also taped a jersey onto him during that time.

Crazy cheeseheads...

At least it wasn't a Buffalo Bills jersey. That would be downright child abuse there.

Good lord. Makes me glad that I chose not to get involved in the crazy Packers cult-like mentality of most of the people in this state... >.>

Sure, I'll cheer for them, but I sure as hell won't obsess over them. Who wants to bet that this probably happened in at least 4 other homes, and it just wasn't reported?

[Eaglestrike]

I blame video games.

Hehe, I'm a Bills fan. I like to kick my own team when they're down.

Agreed 100%. Don't get me wrong, I'd rather the Packers win than some random other team that I don't live anywhere near, but some people just take their adoration way too fucking far.

[Selamis]

I wouldn't wanna wear a Packers jersey either, kid is smart. <_<

[Myst]

[Shuemue]

other domestic issues have surfaced

Looks like it's not just a dumb sports fan

[Mizango]

My dad is the same way. He actually bets against the packers in every game, just for fun... I think he lost a lot of money this year. >.>

“We’ve been unable to uncover any evidence to suggest that this boy was not a Packers fan,” Smith said.

wtf lol

[Jeny]

Just wow... Crazy Americans and your football! D:

But seriously, I don't blame the kid for not wanting to wear it.

wtf lol

That's the part that got my attention the most too, lol.

packer fans are insane. I was listening to the radio and they mentioned a tv station was going to pre-empt seinfeld on Saturday since it's Manning's favorite tv show and they don't want him to feel welcome.

Well, given the charges (that the father forced the son to wear a jersey for a team whom he allegedly did not support), if they can show reasonable doubt that the son was against the Packers, then the father's lawyer might be able to get him off. Innocent until proven guilty; it's the son's lawyer's burden to prove that he was not a Packer's fan at the time of the incident.

Kowald was taken to the county jail and held until today, when he pleaded no contest, paid a fine of $186 and was released.

Either someone didn't read the whole article or I just got whooshed.
