Pro atheletes get heckled all the time. Greg needs to deal with it. Ignoring the retards and not encouraging more of them to take shots at you is the best bet. If his family is genunily unsafe, call security.

wait till you have a daughter and see what happens if a stranger approaches you and starts asking questions about her. A death threat is about as mild a response as you can expect.

So does this apply to parents only, or can we conclude from this that all those elderly people with "Ask Me About My Grandkids" t-shirts are just looking to pick a fight?

Raymer just threatens the guy? Jeez.

He's sitting on about 5 million bucks. If he really loved his daughter he'd peel off a couple c-notes and pay someone to kneecap the guy.

Maybe Raymer is a lightweight after all.

I'm still trying to figure out how inquiring about someone's daughter is grounds for a death threat.

He has alredy been the victim of an attempted robery involving a gun. He has money and celebrity status. There are a lot of desperate people in the poker world.

I don't blame him one bit for threatening the guy.

Family Guy

A guy from the crowd was asking Raymer's wife about his daughter... Mrs Raymer informed the Fossilman who got a tad irrate and threatened to kill the man if he went near his family! It took a good few minutes for him to compose himself and get back to the game. (allegedly)

In case he said: "If Fossilman wins, I'm gonna kidnap and kill your daughter", I'd say it's pretty relevant, as opposed to: "Hi Ms Raymer, good day to you and good luck to Mr. Raymer, and I hope your daughter is doing well too."
