are taking over our sports!

 

Just recently Baylor & Iowa State had a major brawl. Punching, knee to the chest and more.

In NCAA basketball a disgusting deliberate foul is shown below.

Who wants to see this? Are the players themselves ruining our games??

Dude, the violence in sports is NOTHING today compared to how it was in the 70s and 80s.  NOTHING.

I watched football & basketball in the 70's - 80's - - what are you talking about?  Legitimate hard hits were OK then.  Not continual taunting, cheap shots and then general lack of respect for the game.

I remember NBA players going into the crowd to fight. I remember an NHL team going into a crowd to beat up fans.

 

Motive for OP?

Excellent point, had some pretty vicious baseball brawls in the 1960's; nothing has really changed!

Using code words to hide racist content?

 

Why don't you take that racist garbage to reddit.  You SHOULD be banned.

Pretty racist of you to think that all punks are minorities.

Coach, I tried but failed to see any racism in his post.

 

I too am seeing lots of folks who I consider to be "punks" in the news these days and a huge majority are white people wearing masks.  Does this mean that I am a racist?

 

Peace! :)

The worst part (imo) is that he looked back to see if the ref was watching.

 

I wonder what his motive was. Seriously, has anyone explained that?

Bill, I’m referring to Shotgunner’s post and if you don’t see it, fix your glasses.

People are acting the same way they always have. It's nothing new, especially in the competitive world of sports 

 

You're simply seeing what you want to see. Creating your own narrative to describe your surroundings in a way that makes sense to you. You're getting old and the world's passing you by. 

 

No, it can't be. You can keep up. You're fine.

 

Everyone else is wrong. They don't fit. Why don't they straighten up.

 

Punks.

Good Gran Torino reference.  To think brawls are new maybe speaks to you’re age OP.  I don’t know, and not criticizing you, but remember Rene Robert beating an opponent into the stands through the plexiglass in the 70’s.

 

I agree it’s not right, but it is not new.  This is why hockey changed the rules b/c the fighting was getting out of hand in the 60’s-80’s.

 

To me it’s a lack of discipline.  I was a top competitor years ago, but my coach always told me lose you’re cool and they win.   I still believe this to be true and have drilled that into my sons.  My oldest is a phenomenal lax player, and when he would come to me after getting cheap shot, I would tell him, instead of hitting the guy for taking a stick to his neck, slip the guy next time and score.  That will drive him nuts. It’s why he was cheap in the first place.  Beat him with the game so badly the other team leaves humiliated.  That’s how you win.  That is why I always take the opposite when I read take Brady’s knee out.  No.  Sack him, force pressure, picks, and you’ll see how out of control he gets on the sideline.
