The preseason has brought out the nastiness in some people apparently. During the Redskins and Ravens preseason game on Saturday night, Washington linebacker Keenan Robinson started a brawl between the teams by straight up pile driving Ravens’ Kamar Aiken.

Steve Smith and Chris Culliver got into it and both got ejected. John Harbaugh couldn’t leave well enough alone so he ran across the field trying to get Smith out of there but ended up going after Jay Gruden, because why not?

Steve Smith went and joined his family in the suites following his ejecting, to the enjoyment of his son, who tweeted out thanks to the NFL for letting him watch an NFL game for the first time with his dad. It’s hilarious when Dad doesn’t know how to act and always results in family bonding time.

Harbaugh could have probably used some family bonding time to improve his mood because he took his frustrations out on the sideline reporter just before halftime. Now the usefulness of NFL or any football sideline reporters is completely zero because there’s only so many of the same questions the reporters can ask.

A head football coach would rather give out his own social security number on live TV than give any pertinent game-planning information but the reporters have a job to do and the coaches typically play along in the schtick. No such luck this night with Harbaugh. He ran out of all effs to give.
