Re: Haslet and Torrence sideline altercation.

As he was talking, Haslett demonstrated how he used his forearm to fend off Torrence.

"If he is going to run me over, I was going to get him," Haslett said. "I got a good shot on him. I didn't want to get run over. You see those coaches get toppled. Yeah, that wasn't going to be me."

Asked if he was concerned about getting into a physical altercation with the 5-foot-11, 182-pound Torrence, Haslett, who played linebacker for nine seasons in the NFL, said, "I'm bigger than he is. He's not that big, so I would have been all right."
That's pretty funny, even if it was against a Redskin.
