Police mace Chiefs tight ends coach before loss

~ Before this, I didn't even know there was such a thing as a TE coach. Who gives a crap about TEs?? Can't the WR coach handle this?

~ This wins the award as my favorite NFL crime event of 2005 season. A guy went postal because someone told him to use a different entrance to the parking deck! If he gets suspended, the Chiefs could always bring in the guy who beat someone on the street when he asked what time it was:

Police mace Chiefs tight ends coach before loss
------------------------------------------------
October 3, 2005
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) -- Police sprayed Mace on Kansas City Chiefs tight ends coach Jason Verduzco before Sunday's loss to the Eagles after he became combative when he wasn't allowed to turn into the stadium entrance he said he normally uses.
The 35-year-old Verduzco also was cited for trying to harm an officer.
According to a police report, the altercation started when police tried to stop Verduzco from turning into one of the gates because of heavy traffic from arriving fans. But Verduzco turned anyway, and police said he got so close to an officer that the bumper of his sports utility vehicle was touching the officer's leg.
The coach is accused of refusing to back up the SUV and cursing at officers, telling them he's a coach and frequently turns at the intersection.
Eventually, police said two officers tried to remove him from his vehicle while he slapped at them and pulled away. That's when another officer sprayed mace at the still cursing coach, police said.
Police issued a general summons for the coach that alleges he ``did intentionally attempt to inflict bodily injury'' upon the officer and refused to stop his vehicle.
After an ambulance crew washed out his eyes, Verduzco was released on a signature bond.
