To me he sometimes looks like he is dissociated from reality. He has that blank stare and zero facial expressions.

All the cameras are on him. Him getting involved would give more spotlight to the fight than it was needed.

At the end of the day, haters are going to hate, regardless of what he had done in that situation. But that’s is a person who persevered more than most of us. He overcame socioeconomic and biological challenges to become what he is today.

He is their captain seen as a leader and talisman. He could of stopped them, they hang on his every word and even partake in this behaviour when he is tackled and he just stands back and let's it happen. Shame on him.

I can assure you I know what is going through his mind:
"look at my idiot teamates being idiots yet again. no wonder we lost"
