"Pilot was coming in 10 knots faster then he should have been [on arrival into Lubbock], co-pilot then radioed tower and told them, which started argument in cockpit as they landed."
I'd believe the scenario where the FO said go around for missing the gate criteria, the CA did not go around, and now you've got an issue.

Tell us all what you know please. Can you give us at least ONE other hypothetical situation that makes sense? Or do you think speculation should be verboten here? You seem awful touchy about this...you ok??

A spokesman for ExpressJet, the regional carrier that operated the plane, said Monday reports indicated that police were called. Airport police did not immediately respond to messages seeking comment.
Who can ACTUALLY validate that it EVER got close to "fisticuffs"?
ALL you have is this;
There was no fight ... there was no physical altercation thankfully
I'm NOT defending ANYTHING that happened. Simply pointing out how dumbed down society (NOT YOU) has become for taking things on the internwtz and face value.

Assumptions, all too true.
But sadly, you can get the police called to a plane for just about ANYTHING.

AGAIN, pilots can be a funny breed.......

So maybe target +20? I would have said, "yo bro, you mind slowing down," but that's just me. Obviously there is more to this story.
