The obvious answer is he was drunk but nothing about the story makes much sense. Not defending Sanchez at all but what the fuck happened? https://nypost.com/2025/10/06/sport...ng-stabbed-in-fight-with-grease-truck-driver/ He was running wind sprints in an alley at almost midnight and got pissed because an old guy parked his truck there? So he tried to whip his ass, got maced and a knife fight ensued?
As an alcoholic coming up on 6 years sobriety having worked with others who suffer with their addictions, yeah I can attest something like this could be very likely.
The whole thing is a head scratcher to me. Today on the news they said there is plenty of evidence from security cameras and that, get this, BOTH the 69 year old guy AND Sanchez were filming. why would Sanchez film himself beating the shit outta someone? He's drunk I get it, but thats odd.
I just saw the photos of the old man. Goodness if the man didn’t have a knife Mark could have killed him. Unless there’s a big change in this weird ass story he’s definitely losing his job, gonna be losing millions, and should lose his freedom.
also, clearly Sanchez did mess that guy up but it still seems like a thin 69 year old guy shouldn't be able to physically stab a 38 year old former NFL QB. If it was a gun it would be one thing but knife you gotta get close. Like 5 dudes tried jumping Revis a couple years ago and they didn't get anywhere. Seems like Sanchez could've knocked the knife right out of hand easily. He mustve been really drunk or details are missing or both
That guy had a big gash going up the side of his face. I'm guessing Sanchez got pissed off when the guy stabbed him and took the knife away and stabbed him back or something. Doing sprints in the alley.
I've been "pick a fight and try to beat the shit out of someone for no reason" drunk. I was in college. I wasn't 38. Hell I stopped drinking at 37. Clearly Marky had himself a night.
I doubt if it was over a parking spot because I doubt Sanchez had a car there. Just another lousy drunk being an asshole. Who the hell would want to climb into a grease truck? We'll see.
One of the charges was called something like "Forcing his way into a vehicle" which could explain why Sanchez was close enough to get stuck - he did it himself!
Mark Sanchez. Man was filled with promise but had a catastrophic end to his careers. Alcohol, anger, violence, entitlement, Sanchez needs to deal with a lot things and be responsible for what this 70 year old man had to go through. Gonna be a wild documentary
IDK--people who would do such a thing don't grow out of it--its inside you and it leaks out in your posts. One day you will go postal.
Can’t wait for that one. I hope they also address why the Jets never tapped into his unique ability to shake off pepper spray.
Oh wow that video is going to be GOLD one day. From what I've read, Sanchez body slammed the guy onto some pallets, which caused a lot of the injuries. I need to see those vids!
If I were Zuckerberg, I'd be sending Meta Ray Bans to every remaining NFL broadcaster. Imagine the POV bodyslam?
Can't happen. That would constitute cruel and unusual punishment under the Eighth Amendment. If Sanchez does wind up in prison, Butt Fumble could take on a whole new meaning.
