The Wiz Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 Not much "trading" if you ask me. More like "United airlines worker receives beating from passenger" 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PonyBoy Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 Remember in the 90's United's slogan was "Fly The Friendly Skies"? They don't look so friendly to me anymore. Their new slogan could be "Fly The Friendly Skies with United... Or We'll Kick Your A**"! 😃 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain_Quint Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 My guess is that the employee will get fired and will turn around and sue the guy as well as United. Probably won't win anything since he had a chance to step back and walk away. He'll spend a couple of years fighting for a payday, only to come away empty-handed. Best of luck!

wppete Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 The airline is a big boy but lesson here is don’t mess with professional athletes especially in violent combat sports like football… And he was a CB imagine if he messed with a LB or DL?

John from Riverside Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 Wait a minute......why was Langley arrested? Did he even start this? You shouldnt get arrested just because you finished it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BADOLBILZ Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 This is not good for his football career...........a grown man taking a handicapped person device to move luggage to save $5 is in very poor taste.........but then beating an airport employee senseless after you get caught is just idiotic. One of the dudes in the USFL got cut for telling a foodservice worker at their hotel that it "wasn't OK" that they didn't have pizza on the menu. When you are a scrub you gotta' be extra careful not to do dumb sh*t in public. 2 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

msw2112 Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 (edited) From the segment of the altercation that I could see, it looks like there is fault and very poor judgment on the part of both parties. And even if Langley isn't completely at fault, this will hurt his NFL chances. Teams take chances on guys with "issues" if those guys are good players and/or players with perceived upside (like Tyreek Hill, Frank Clark, Ritchie Incognito, or Tyrel Dodson, just to name a few). If Langley is not currently on a roster, he's probably not one of those types of guys. There are plenty of end of the bench, practice squad, and/or training camp fodder guys who don't have this kind of baggage (pun not initially indended). And the United Airlines guy is next level stupid. You should never fight a) while on the job, unless you are a boxer or hockey player; and b) with a guy who is younger, taller, and clearly much more physically fit than you are.

Offside Number 76 Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 (edited) If you've flown since 2001, you know that it's about 75% that the airline employee started it. They all think they're junior gendarmes now. Edited May 24, 2022 by Offside Number 76 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They all think they're junior gendarmes now. "The customer is always right" is actually the opposite. Usually always wrong. Looks like Langley threw first punch and then cries like a baby: "You see that!" When he got stung. Yeah... Stupid for the employee to advance on him after he was hit. Gotta back off. Hope he doesn't get fired, looks like Langley deserved it. Probably why Langley got arrested, for being the instigator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
