The following report is by The Fresno Bee:
Sunday, athletics director Terry Tumey said in a statement, “a member of the coaching staff broke the window in the coach’s box above a seating section.”
That coach has been placed on administrative leave, Tumey said.
At this point, we’re trying to figure out what’s going on with all that transpired, but I can definitely tell you that the individual that acted in that way will be placed on administrative leave, effective immediately.
We have to have some disciplinary action until we can figure out what transpired. But our biggest concern right now, quite honestly, is our fans and the young women, the child, and her mother.
Tumey said in an interview at the game.
Tumey declined to identify the coach but said they would not have any contact with the football program while out. It was not one of the Bulldogs’ 11 on-field coaches, a source said. The woman and the young girl received treatment at Valley Children’s Hospital, Tumey said.
The extent of the injuries was not known, but both received lacerations from the falling glass. The glass in the press box window is not tempered or safety glass, which breaks into smaller pieces less likely to cause injury if it were to break. There were shards of glass from the left side of the window, large and small pieces with jagged and sharp edges, on a ledge under the window.
Coach Jeff Tedford was unaware of the incident immediately after the game, a 17-10 victory that snapped the Bulldogs’ four-game losing streak.
That’s very unfortunate. That breaks my heart to hear that. I’m sure I’ll find out about it, but it’s very unfortunate that happened.
He said.

[3] A stone is heavy, and the sand weighty; but a fool’s wrath is heavier than them both. [4] Wrath is cruel, and anger is outrageous; but who is able to stand before envy?Proverbs 27:3-4
On the first of this month I talked about one of the worst stadium accidents that have happened in history, where 129 people initially died during a stampede at a soccer match in Indonesia, with another 180 reporting injuries that night. As I said in that report, sports is one of the primary ways to control and blind the masses. Playing a particular sport for fun in of itself is not an issue, but the sheer idolatry of it is a problem; and yet another unnecessary reaction was created because this country invests insane amounts of time and money into throwing and running a ball.
So long as they (the Proles) continued to work and breed, their other activities were without importance. Left to themselves, like cattle turned loose upon the plains of Argentina, they had reverted to a style of life that appeared to be natural to them, a sort of ancestral pattern…Heavy physical work, the care of home and children, petty quarrels with neighbors, films, football, beer and above all, gambling filled up the horizon of their minds. To keep them in control was not difficult.

[7] Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock? [8] Say I these things as a man? or saith not the law the same also? [9] For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen? [10] Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope. (1 Corinthians 9:7-10).

That coach is going to have explaining to do, what he did was involuntary assault.
I’m so sick and tired of sports idolatry, and the professing christians idolize sports as well even (I know, what a shock) and if you’re not a fan especially of football they look at you like some kind of weirdo or treat you as an outcast. Why? Because sports are their god.
Bread and circuses is all that it is, and when disaster strikes and the nonexistent economy finally collapses, China attacks/war with China, those that are jabbed start falling over dead when the 5G frequencies are accelerated, let’s see them talk about their sports gods.
