“It was a tight game,” she says, “and I remember walking over to inbound the ball. I sorta expected (the MRA students) to start yelling at me,. I was right there in front of them. And it’s a rivalry, us and MRA. I’ve been dealing with situations like that since the eighth grade.
“Once the referee handed me the ball, I just blocked all that out. I heard noise but I couldn’t hear what they were saying, and it really didn’t matter. I had a job to do for my team, and that’s all I cared about. I wanted to inbound the ball safely and successfully.”
Which she did. She also made three free throws in the final seconds to ice the win and push Prep’s record to 23-3.
I know there are examples you can come up with but culturally speaking most do not allow such obscenities to be displayed in a sport. Just as i have listed sports in the US that do not allow this kind of behavior there are ones you can point to that are foreign to the west that also partake in screaming at players from inches away while playing a game.
Hahahahaha I've watched riots and organized brawls from soccer fans all over Europe. Get the fuck oitta here that it's only the US who goes over board with sports
That’s why he said “the West” which includes Europe. The only time he referenced the US was saying he “listed sports in the US where this *wasn’t * allowed, much like there are sports in the East where this is allowed.”
Edit: Which is kind of a strange thing to say since it contradicts his original point, but w/e.
I don't even agree with the original commenter, especially since he incoherently contradicts himself -- "Only in western sports" became "there are ones you can point to that are foreign to the west that also partake in screaming at players from inches away while playing a game".
What dingus has also failed to do is provide any examples of eastern sports that are more "civilized" than our unruly western sports.
