Put it this way: Nobody (with a brain) says that the NFL needs more people like Terrell Owens. Nobody saw him run to midfield, dance around on the Cowboys' logo, and said, "Man, that's what we need more of. People stirring up controversy and animosity, making better television and getting the fans riled up." It isn't that hard to show people a little respect and be civil. Really. This isn't to say that people shouldn't celebrate; of course they should. That's what you do when you win. But you don't have to rub it in the face of the people you just beat. There are plenty of ways to win, celebrate, and not act like a dick. | ||

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goal_celebration It's not like Chalrenge is walking over and laughing at Midas in his face after he lost. He is celebrating and acknowledging his fans. | ||

And when I see Terrell Owens doing funny shit I say to myself, dear god I want more of that (not really but if I actually watched football I probably would). "People stirring up controversy and animosity, making better television and getting the fans riled up." Controversy isn't boring like civility is (people don't watch Canadian parliament, they watch Jerry Springer), I don't care about animosity because it's just a fucking game and the losers are getting paid to play it too, and the key phrase here is better television which is one of the only things I care about when I'm watching TV. | ||

No i thought that was Rofl, even tho I bid on OGN. It sure was funny to see that to turn the mood. The dick implies to Zeus and Yarnc for after doing all those shit (and beat SKT). Getting a 3-0 got them good. + Show Spoiler + Also, remember how Zeus tried to cannon camp on Sync? It was funny to see that he got camp afterward with no zealot or dragoon to defend it I agree that chalrenge is like a kid. "Did you see that? I whup Midas's ass." | ||

I'm just too strong for you, you can't do anything against me just give up." Edit : And i've NEVER seen that on any professional sport. Even Guillermo coria when he was toying at Rolland Garros is like nothing compared to his. lol are you kidding? chalrenge just makes a hand gesture and walks off, and thats suddenly like insulting midas' ancestors or something. he beat one of the best tvp players in the world, makes a grand gesture, and somehow it's awful and childish? its fucking AWESOME is what it is, when i saw that it instantly made chalrenge one of my favorite players. you're actually comparing it to tennis, where the crowd has to be quiet and the players have to wear certain clothes. tennis is more like golf, where the fans have to behave a certain way and be quiet while the match is being played. when you look at other more crowd-intense sports like soccer, football, etc, you have the crowd chanting if victoria beckham does anal, holding signs that kobe is a rapist, etc. terrell owens pulled out sharpie and signed a ball he caught for a TD. if chalrenge's hand gesture is the worst thing you've seen you havent watched enough sports. someone post a vid of the samsung 2v2 team. and who was dissing on terrell owens? yes hes a dick and a bad player to have on your team, but him and chad johnson and steve smith's endzone celebrations are absolutely great for their fans. fans and progamers are forgetting that if they hate someone's ceremonies, theres a very easy way to stop them from doing it: BEAT THEM. | ||

Some people seem to think it was really offensive towards Midas but I don't even know what he is doing ... it just looks cool with his cocky smile. Also the commentators laughing always makes me laugh too. edit: Hot Bid just posted right before me saying it was just a simple hand gesture. I was wondering why people like RaiZ thought this ceremony was so bad, if there's more to it, but if there's not then stop overreacting -.- | ||
