I could see Reid viewing that as a situation having the potential to get ugly. The guy was within his rights, but what's the use acting within your rights and wind up still being wrong? There are several different ways of looking at a situation like that.

lol @ calling him a jackass compared to most Philly fans

a jersey.. at CAMP! I mean maybe he was trying to keep a scuffle from breaking out or maybe he just got his panties in a bunch, who knows.

This could be true, but we do not know for sure. I hope this is the reason and not for other more selfish, insecure and stupid reasons. We saw how it backfired for Snyderatto and Redskins Stadium last season when people were forced to remove Dan Snyder and Vinnie Cerratto shirts.

Which is why I am hoping that Reid did it for "selfish, insecure and stupid reasons."

I find this story upsetting and unAmerican. I highly doubt Reid was worried for one fans safety either. If the man Delvin is an Eagles fan why worry about retaliation. He is a fan making a statement. Leave it at that.

I want to bring an army of folks to Iggles camp wearing DMac jerseys and see what happens.

I've heard that he had some sort of credentials to be on the sideline and it's policy for them not to wear other team gear. Not sure if it's true.

A favor how? I mean sure they're certain instances where a skins fan mite get jacked up but I go to that game in Philly and where my skins gear in eagles country all year round and heckling is the worst that's happened ... and yes I have my mcnabb Jersey and worn it out a few times already.... I think wats "distasteful" here is Andy . Jerk.off move by him.

The guy is now sporting a red Kolb jersey that he bought at the facility.

It's been clarified that he was in a VIP fan area that's the same area that media has access to.
