Look at Ray Ray Run Posted April 18, 2019 Share Posted April 18, 2019 35 minutes ago, Chicago White Sox said: Good...dude is a coward for calling out Tim like that. A hitter siding with a pitcher - not on his own team - throwing intentionally at a batter because he was jacked up about his homer is so embarrassing I genuinely feel sorry for Grichuk. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I'd be more concerned about teaching kids that if someone does something that hurts their feelings, they can react violently and that's okay because of vague unwritten rules. Correct. This is why Keller should have been ejected and not Anderson. I'm not saying anything that actually happened in the game was right or wrong. I can just saying I don't agree with the lack of professionalism in celebrating a mundane moment. A game winning HR in the bottom of the 9th, sure. But not the mundane activites. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baker Posted April 18, 2019 Share Posted April 18, 2019 I think this is easy enough. Celebration is fine, taunting the other team is not. Umpires discretion. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have specific rules on who can do it, when they can do it, what props they can use. Who cares if it's 2019. Professionalism isn't arbitrary. This isnt your office job pal. Trying to compare the two is impossible. The competitive nature needed to br a professional athlete is immense. Competitiveness is instilled in emotion.

OmarComing25 Posted April 18, 2019 Share Posted April 18, 2019 I asked a few people on Twitter yesterday who said that Anderson "had it coming" if it would be OK for Anderson to charge the mound if a pitcher pimped a strikeout against him and they always fail to see the double standard. Violence is OK apparently but only one way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is not exaggeration, an average person would face criminal charges for that, regardless of whether it hit them in the butt or not. At some point, I think the legal system cleans this up.

Chicago White Sox Posted April 18, 2019 Share Posted April 18, 2019 25 minutes ago, ptatc said: It depends on what you celebrate. Winning a world series is one thing. A home run in April with two bad teams that's not a special moment, isn't a reason to celebrate. He is just doing his normal every day job in a normal moment. Nothing about professional sports is a “normal job” though. This is an entertainment field and the players should be putting on a show for us. Emotion only adds to the product. There is a reason the No Fun League changed its policy around TD celebrations and now allow guys to be as creative as they want to be whenever they want to be. Doesn’t matter if that TD celebration comes in a tie game or when a team is down 49-0. Let the guys have some fun out there and actually entertain the legions of young fans who find the game to be somewhat boring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it fair to say your position would be you would support the mlb giving umpires some say in regulating on field celebrations if they also eliminated player retaliation measures in earnest?

Just because the NFL or NBA allows for 5 minute dances in the end zone doesnt make it right. I got mad when the Bears players did all types of silly skits after they scored a TD.

JoshPR Posted April 18, 2019 Share Posted April 18, 2019 I don't agree with the showboating from anybody. Probably why I hate LeBron James, but grichuk needs to STFU.

It’s so fucking ridiculous. These guys cite “professional” and serving as “positive role models” to support the idea that celebrating a job well done is some sort of problem but are somehow ok with a man throwing a 90+ MPH at another person who made them feel a little butt hurt over a god damn bat toss.
