Did I miss the JBo KO thread?

[TrianglePlace]

I have on what I'd consider to be extremely solid authority that the person who hit Bohannon was, indeed, a former ISU football player. That same authority informs me that the stories of Bohannon chucking ice at people are also on solid footing.

Between a sucker punch and throwing ice from the 2nd floor of DC's, I know which one is the bigger douche move.

It's weird how people are calling out the 23 year old for being a drunken douche, and rightfully so, but are not saying a word about the 29 year old being a bigger, drunken douche.

 

[longliveCS40]

They used to stand up and go musket to musket with each other too. Honorable, absolutely. Smart, not so much. There are no rules in street fighting. Only consequences. Both parties.

There are actually rules in street fighting. Laws actually that differentiate between mutual combat and assault. Sucker punching someone is assault and cowardly, Mutual combat is a fight between two willing participants.

Also, your war argument holds no water. Civilized countries announce their intention to go to war and then go to battle giving the other country a chance to back down. No different than a fight between individuals. Starts with a disagreement of some type, words are exchanged, if neither party back down, a fight occurs.

When a guy is having words with another guy and a 3rd guy comes up and surprise punches him in the face, that's completely cowardly. The fact that people are chalking that up to "anything goes when there's a disagreement between two people" is ridiculous. Really shows people's true colors with an opinion like that.

If jbo through ice he assulted the other person. I beleive some guy through water on steve king and got a assault charge. If he did it he got what he deserved a lesson in life

I hope you're on the other side of the world, because it's pretty early in the States to be this wasted.

Not that it really matters much, but I wonder if anything happened before the alleged ice chucking. If I had to guess, words, comments, or asshatery of some sort might have bred a desire to chuck ice. Maybe not. And again, it doesn't matter. Stupid comments don't justify ice-chucking. Ice-chucking doesn't justify sucker-punching. It's all just stupid. Nothing good happens after midnight.

Yes, but former Iowa State football player would make "drunken douche" redundant.

I'll take "Knee-jerk Overuse of 'Cancel Culture'" for $500, Alex.

May want to re-read this thread. The smug approval of JB deserving this is dripping from the those who dont ‘like’ his opinions. Clearly stated over and over. Your cute deflection is typical.

May i add therr is no fair in fight

Indeed. Strike first, strike hard, no mercy

This is as close to factual as the thread has gotten and still doesn't make it a fact, so lets wait until we know something.
Also....did he chuck ice or toss ice? Were they ice cubes or shaved ice. Lot's of variables here but it would take some serious ice chucking to warrant a sucker punch.
We have WhiskyAgogo here equating it to when he punched another 10 year old and we have many others who think when you get punched that a bubble appears over your head with the words "POW" or "KABOOM".
Throwing a close fisted punch can change lives.

I don't believe I said anywhere "anything goes when there's a disagreement with two people". You will also see my comment had no reflection on the JBo incident. If you are going to try and argue with someone, stay with that person's opinion and not mix with others. And also - there are ZERO rules in STREET fighting. There are in fact consequences.

If you think anyone would stand in front of another in war in today's world, then you were the guy that said "hit me".

It wasn't a "street fight" between JBo and the other guy(s). It was a disagreement where guys were arguing and then one guy punched him when he wasn't ready for it.

You can try to spin what you said however you want but it is very clear.

At that point JBo should have been ready for it.

That happens a lot you know. Despite what you mentioned earlier there really are no rules in a fight, and most countries don't follow the laws of war either (even though they won't admit it). We no longer live in the age of the Jets and the Sharks or the Socs and the Greasers. Stay Cool Boy and Stay Gold Ponyboy.

Anybody elevating it to violence is the worst of the two. People don't care about the 29 year old because he's not on the Iowa basketball team.

Then why don't you cut and paste what I actually wrote? And once again for someone who obviously can't understand the written word, my comment had nothing to do with the actual incident. I wasn't there and doubtful you were either. You want to read between the lines something that isn't there.

 

[Tim Dodge Rules]

You did justify why people were applauding him getting hit. Funny you use Tim Dodge as your forum name. Another Hawkeye that at times had taken his hits on this board.

Loudmouths, jackoffs, jerkoffs, dbags, and assholes who rile ship up intentionally deserve it.
I don't care if it's a Hawkeye, Cyclone, Piston, Oiler, or your mom.

 

[Tim Dodge Rules]

I am glad to hear that you are not hoping for long term ramifications for Jordan. That is a pretty low bar you have set.

You set it.

By that reasoning, you deserve a beating. But you are an anonymous jerk on the internet so you are safe. At least for now...

Thanks for confirming it.

 

[KFsdisciple]

Yeah if you want to get into it with the guy, you say "drop the phone because we are throwing down" If he doesn't drop the phone and you want to fight him that badly, knock the phone out of his hand, then square up.

It's a sucker punch when you punch someone that isn't ready to be punched...plain and simple.

Someone is talking trash, you talk back. You want to take it to the next level, you make your intentions known and go there.

Anything else is just you preemptively hitting an unready combatant because you're worried if it's a fair fight you're going to have a harder time.

said every woman ever.

 

[Tim Dodge Rules]

I wonder what Jbos phone video would show?
Perhaps he was just conducting post bar interviews?

What was your beverage of choice this evening?
What are you going to eat?

JBo was engaged with the man directly in front of him. JBo was looking into his phone & recording.

Jbo did not see the guy from the side & his sucker punch coming. That guy likely faces assault charges & I hope he enjoys paying the lawyer fees that will be required to get him out of this mess.

 

[KFsdisciple]

Indeed. Strike first, strike hard, no mercy

winner! end of thread.

 

[Tim Dodge Rules]

Jbo did not see the guy from the side & his sucker punch coming.

He didn't? Isn't the guy trying to talk to Jbo, for the second time, and pulling him back? Surely Jbo didn't think a poltergeist was interfering with his interview?

 

[anon_qczsdwtnv6esw]

Judge Judy could settle this entire thing in under 15 mins including commercials!!

 

[Rifler]

Why do you believe that if you are a fan of team you have to 100% support every player on that team? I don't owe the players anything. Are you a big Pierre Pierce fan? Are you still mad at the girls who turned him in? "I can't believe those girls call themselves Hawkeye fans and turned him in for sexual assault, I support the players 100%." Oh I know, you think I'm comparing Jordan to Pierre, which I'm not.. I'm pointing out the fallacy in your logic. Fans do not have to support/defend/like every player on the team. If Brad Davidson was a Hawkeye I still wouldn't like him.

Chill dude, I'm simply stating a fact,.. A lot of the negative shit being tossed around in this thread is coming from self identified Badger and Cyclone fans that come to this site to smirk..

I get your point, but the example might not be the best. Bernardo and Riff both pulled knives and ended up dead

True, and a great point. I was thinking very few would catch the reference. Nice work Lone Clone.

 

[Tim Dodge Rules]

Oh man, lots of people tried to defend Pierre at the time.
Awful.
A old roommate had a friend over back in college who worked in the ER and had some pretty horrific details about the girl.

 

[TrianglePlace]

So you're telling me if I go over to CF there will be people calling out the 29 year drunken douche former ISU football player?

 

[mooresville hawk]

You set it.

This is not correct. The bar that I set is that violence is not warranted to settle a dispute. I have not condoned or condemned the actions of JBo as his actions have not been confirmed. There has been speculation of what he did, but no confirmation. Those who are arguing that JBo deserved to be punched because of his actions or that he was not seriously injured so the punch was OK are coming in under the bar that I set. You sir are under that bar.

Your comments in a thread on an Iowa basketball message board about an Iowa basketball player that got into a physical altercation weren't about said incident? You just accidentally wandered in here and coincidentally start posting about street fights?

None of us were there but there is video of what transpired. Let me recap: JBo is holding a phone and presumably arguing with a guy. After a couple seconds, another guy comes up behind/beside him, taps him on the shoulder, and cold cocks him. He then he proceeds to punch him after he's fallen to the ground.

They also don’t need to talk shit to them on social media or Twitter.

The person with whom I spoke didn't share any of those details.

And again, it doesn't matter. Stupid comments don't justify ice-chucking. Ice-chucking doesn't justify sucker-punching. It's all just stupid.

Agreed.

Nothing good happens after midnight.

Disagree. There can be some good things that happen after midnight on the pedestrian mall . . . but I'm waaaaaay far removed from being involved in that game. HA!

Meh, dude should just request a jury trial. No way U’d find 12 hawk fans let alone cyclone fans who’d all find him guilty

You need to rewatch the video. Puncher was there longer than your spinning it. And presumably the puncher came up to JBo, tapped him in the shoulder and said with fair warning “I’m gonna F u up”

May want to re-read this thread. The smug approval of JB deserving this is dripping from the those who dont ‘like’ his opinions. Clearly stated over and over. Your cute deflection is typical.

I've read the thread.
It's one thing to have an opinion. It's another thing to express that opinion. It's wholly another thing to be arrogant, smug and act like you are smarter and better than other people. If there is anyone on here whose posts could be interpreted as "approving" of Bohannon getting punched or that he "had it coming" is not because they "don't like" his opinions. It is because they find him to be insufferable in the way he carries himself and recognize that if you are out in public acting like a 12 year douchebag when you are, in reality, a 6th year Senior, someone might take a shot at you. That applies to Jordan Bohannon or any other 24 year old. Douche bag conduct has a tendency to attract other douche bag conduct.
There are also a number of people posting on this thread who are leaping to the conclusion that JBo's initial conduct (chucking ice cubes at people) excuses getting punched. There's a difference between excusing conduct and pointing out why conduct took place. I'm willing to bet very good money that if JBo wasn't chucking ice and people and engaged in conduct on the pedestrian mall that was sufficient to have someone record it and comment about how JBo "knew that he was going to get" punched, this never would have happened. Something was brewing and it ended in a very bad way. And pointing out that JBo's conduct leading up to getting punched qualifies as being an entitled douche bag doesn't excuse the bad ending. It merely offers context.
Laying blame at "Cancel Culture" misses the mark. Widely.

Accidently wandered - no. Made a comment about a street fight - yes. Just why is that so hard for you to comprehend? If I had specifically referenced this incident in my comments you would have a point. I didn't, so you don't. So rather than you continually assuming what I meant, why don't you just accept what I have explained to you now on several occasions. At some point you're just being obtuse.
