neat you pointed something out to me that was clearly typing itself and me pressing the space bar… wow you got me.
also, nitpicking an analogy despite the point being absolutely clear shows… well, I expected this. I’ve been getting this level of discourse for a while around here.
It did not take long for this thread to start shaping up to be an INSTANT CLASSIC.
Will this be another KNOCK-DOWN, DRAG-OUT affair? Who will prevail, the USPORTSMANLIKE GLORY BOYS or the bastions of integrity that PLAY THE RIGHT WAY?
Can I work more sports euphemisms into this post? Probably!
No you haven’t. You haven’t outlined a single level of competition/celebration or delineated the upper and lower boundaries, let alone defined or determined “show boating” in any meaningful way.
No I’m not. I was using the men’s sport celebrations as a foil to the women’s because there isn’t even an analogy to be made. The difference is too great.
I mean, shit, Tyson used to celebrate victories with month long drug benders, buying a pet tiger and raping a couple of women. Not to mention his celebratory face punches. Dude still doesn’t know how to high five.
You ever hear of a coach throwing a couple of the jv team into the lineup so that they could get their varsity letters once they know that the game is essentially a live practice?
I watched this game live and people were pissed they kept scoring, and celebrating. Makes no difference if its men, women or children, no one likes it.
I would never tell a team to stop playing, but don’t celebrate like it’s the first goal the team ever scored. That is the issue here.
You shouldn’t be considered misogynistic for saying so but the times we live in today, wow.
I guess but this is such a bad tournament competitiveness wise that I find it dumb. Women sports tend to be terrible, this one especially.
Don’t get me wrong I love the game, but not so much that I’d watch under 15 year old academy boys play, which is what women teams usually practice against, and get routinely humiliated so I’m definitely not wasting my time watching women barely manage to kick a ball in a net.
The fact that many of the players are suing to be paid as much as the men leaves a bad taste in my mouth. Women’s soccer doesn’t bring in anywhere near the revenue of men’s soccer. End of story.
Right, and I think this adds to peoples temperament when they see them demolish a team and start jumping all over the place.
Here’s a group of women, to use SJW speak- incredibly “privileged” and mainly “white women” complaining they don’t get paid like the men when actually being subsidized by the men’s team while most of their peers can’t even get jerseys. Brazil one year had to borrow fucking jerseys, and they had the best player ever in women’s soccer, think about that.
Yet here these little princesses holding up the sexism the world isn’t fair card and then running up the score while laughing and jumping in the air vs an incredibly far inferior team they knew they’d spank. Now we have the league of cuckboys here on T-Nation doing what they can to defend this fucking behavior. No wonder women want free shit all the time.
here’s a more relevant example for ya. This Norwegian dude scores 9 fuckign goals in this game and he barely puts his hands in the air. No one overly expressed “jubilance” I think they gathered around each other maybe once or twice, the rest of the time they were meh about it as you normally are when a game is so out of hand like this.
That’s bullshit. A bunch of those clips of goals were cut short, and if they weren’t-the guys were celebrating. And if they weren’t “running up the score” on a far inferior team, then who in the fuck does?
Sorry you can’t be more articulater in your non dumb talk and video finding, but none of that supports your pointingist.
