[QUOTE="Calvin, post: 1490685, member: 4069"] Yeah, I read that and I see very little to blame Groce for*. A basketball player punches another bball player, and the lawyer immediately thinks, who can I sue? I sure can't sue the guy who did it, because he doesn't have any money. Ah, the coach and the school, they have money, we'll sue them because they witnessed it, and have responsibilities we can tie to the incident. *I'm not taking a position, just that the accusation needs evidence of how Groce made it happen, or was negligent to somehow allow this guy to punch him. The claims in this seem borderline outlandish, although there are circumstances that could establish a degree of negligence if he has a pattern of seeing this behavior and doing nothing meaningful. Lawsuits, especially ones for large amounts of money for emotional distress, need a dose of skepticism before joining the justice mob. [/QUOTE]
