This story should be about beer, but its still sad and pathetic any way you slice it.

According to The Jersey Journal, Michael Charles was watching the NFC Championship game this past Sunday and was upset that the 49ers were losing.

He was watching the game with his 50-year-old brother and elderly mother.

They had been drinking but had run out of beer, so Michael went to grab the last can of Pepsi from the refrigerator.

His brother told him that he wanted it which prompted Michael to respond "go f#%k himself," then bashed him over the head with a metal pipe.

Things escalated further, and by the time the incident was over, both men had multiple stab wounds.

Michael ran off, and he is being charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.

Police are still looking for him.

His brother was taken to the hospital where he was treated for stab wounds to his chest, neck, and stomach, as well as the knot on his head from the metal pipe.

As of Monday, he was listed in stable condition.
