Todd, the problem i see with this is, we don't know whether they came up 
because
their manhood was challenged by his radio taunts, or whether they just came 
up
to attack because it was their job anyway. This sounds a bit too movie-like, 
not
him making taunts, but an actual "A causes B" response to it. Sounds like a 
John
Wayne movie. -Hue
