I don't know about the US sports scene, but here in the UK when sporty people are happy they start bouncing, and I just wondered why? And while I was looking for a vid as an example I came across this . . . https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ybmSvacv9GQ I invite anyone who has a few minutes to spare to watch it, then tell me that humankind isn't going insane?
It's just having fun is all. What drives me crazy is the sports fan that goes too far and gets seriously angry. I can understand sad and some tears in those crazy moments when your team loses, but (*)(*)(*)(*) man there is no point in fighting or breaking stuff lol.
Soccer hooligans are far from human.Syria was said to have violently declined an offer to exchange them for refugees
After watching them in action against a bus carrying a team of footballers through a town centre by chucking bottles of booze at it, I began to wonder how much of the Hillsborough thing was a cover-up with compensation in mind, and (although far be it for me to support the police) that the police commander who stood down was in fact being made the scapegoat. For a long time now I've seen football as being the precursor to nasty things around the corner for us; I see it as a vehicle for tribal-related and alcohol-fuelled violence, and that usually continues on to raw nationalism, and we're seeing signs of that all around us these days. Ah well - que sera sera, but I find it rather ominous!
And you haven't noticed that it's got a lot worse since then? Oh I've just noticed - you're Scotch. That explains it!
That was when hooliganism was a regular every day thing. In fact trouble at the game was part of the game itself.
Lol now you say adults can't have fun? Seriously wtf lol? Life is too short to live with a rod up your butt.
No, not 'can't have fun', shouldn't need to have it. But there's obviously no point in trying discuss with you the difference between 'fun' and 'humour' so I won't.
