Re: Football season USA
My absolute favorite part of today's NFL are the touchdown dances/celebrations.

Re: Football season USA
I'm 50/50 on that. Sometimes it's pretty funny or entertaining, but I also have a serious appreciation for a guy like Thurman Thomas, who would score a touchdown, hand the ball to the ref, and then just jog back to the sideline. Every time. Poker face. All business. Act like you've been there before. No need to bebop and scat all over the opponent, it just seems disrespectful. Let the fans celebrate, sure, but watching a multi-millionaire "get jiggy with it" just for doing his job kinda rubs me the wrong way sometimes.

I just remembered my dad's other favorite player (sorry switching sports) was Don Mattingly but he was not happy when Don grew his hair long either. "It just looks ridiculous " he would say about both of them.

Re: Football season USA
My dad didn't much care for sports—professional sports, on tv and all that—and I suspect part of it was how "scruffy" (his preferred word) athletes looked. Someone like Thurman Munson should have been ashamed to go around looking like that.revbob wrote: ↑16 Jan 2024, 9:01amI just remembered my dad's other favorite player (sorry switching sports) was Don Mattingly but he was not happy when Don grew his hair long either.

Re: Football season USA
I understand, that professionalism about acting like you've been there before and all that and that's cool, but I just love these grown men playing an incredibly violent sport letting themselves have a bit of fun upon a successful score. I really like it when the whole 11 guys get into it together, it shows a sense of fun and joy at playing the game, and seeing grown ass giant men doing the cha cha together is just awesome.Kimmelweck wrote: ↑16 Jan 2024, 7:10amI'm 50/50 on that.

That Jets D front with Gastineau was top notch and I admit I too disliked the "sack dance", I don't like how everyone does the "first down" sign when they make a catch at midfield, scoring points with a TD or a safety is worthy of a celebration but not every single play. Easy for me to say since i'm not putting my body on the line to entertain the masses of rabid drunken violence worshippers.

Re: Football season USA
We were in NYC this past weekend. Not wanting to miss the Green Bay / Dallas game, I searched "Green Bay Packers bars in NYC" and ended up at a place called the Kettle of Fish in Greenwich Village. The bar itself is famous (though the location has changed a couple of times). It was popular with the Beat Poets back in the 1950s. The current iteration has a wonderfully "divey" feel to it and it was jam packed with Green Bay fans! It almost felt like I was watching the game back home.

A Buffalo/Detroit super bowl would be an all timer in property damage. I'm here for it.
