I could be wrong but i remember Brian Dozier going completely ape shite about it when a player did it to his team a couple years back.

Dumbass.
If you had ever played any sport above the Participation Trophy level you'd understand.
Go back to your Sewing Board and bitch about something you are familiar with.

I can’t stand when some people bitch about a team running up the score.

Tony The Drunk managed the A’s during the “Bash Brothers” era. In the ‘89 season when they won the WS, they had their share of blowout wins. Hell, during that entire era I guarantee they beat the living shite out of teams. I guess the drunker you get, the more sensitive you become.

The "you can't bunt if a pitcher has a no hitter" is the dumbest. My ego won't let anyone flex on me. 3rd inning and my team is against a no-no, I am bunting.

Yermin was in a hot streak when this happened if I not mistaken. After that, he went to shite and was back in the minors not long after.

Baseball is by far the worst
And fans who want players to " act like you've been there before". Even Soccer fans & players aren't as soft & offended by opposing team celebrations.

Does that apply to Coaches too?
2 biggest advocates of "act like you've been there before" I can think of are Bear Bryant and Nick Saban.

Someone disrespects you and slow trots a homerun, and you can't get angry.
After you slow trot a homerun and then get plunked your next at bat, you are allowed to get angry.


The problem is hurt feelings manifest into physical hurt. I am sad that you trotted slowly so I'm going to throw a 90 mph baseball at your teammate. You missed the most important part of the issue. Everyone can have feelings or whatever, the problem is the lack of emotional maturity that transforms it to physical violence.

Agree! If you don’t like it, stop it. If you can’t stop it, eat your shite sandwich & go cry in the corner

I like when they go for 2 up by 25 and use a trick play.


For the win. LSU fans were butthurt when this happened and some of those same fans loved the Zion dunk. Can’t have it both ways.


I'm an LSU fan that had no problem with UGA going for 2. LSU fans upset at that are soft. BK went for 2 just before that so whether Kirby wanted to return the favor, or just wanted to get to 50, or just wanted to run a fun trick play with the game already over, it doesn't bother me either way. Who cares if it's 50 or 49?

It's all about context. The Pelicans thing is a culmination of a lot of things, most notably the national media shitting on or ignoring us, and CP3 and his teammates being total bitches in the playoffs last year.

Georgia was a dick move just to put up a symbolic number. And so was their DT carrying an obviously injured QB around like a trophy. Why did they do that? Because Joe Burrow embarrassed them (but did no bitch moves) 3 years ago?
god i love LSU fans

I don’t know why exactly but I don’t like Chris Paul.
