Booing a player doesn't show your support for your fellow countryman/fav player, it shows you're bm and have no place in an event like this. Hopefuly this doesn't happen again, if puma goes back to korea and they all hear that foreign events are a bunch of bm mindless idiots who will come play?

Team sports and individual sports are different though. Team sports, such as soccer, basketball, football, booing is expected for guest team. But for individual sports, usually there is not much booing at all, it will just get too personal. And also, these kids are only 20 years old, and they are not making millions like Kobe.


I don't buy that reasoning. If you want to be center stage, you take the jeers with the cheers. Just as long as they don't cross the line.

elaborate on why you don't buy that reasoning?

Booing in individual sports is rare. Booing a golfer is generally unheard of unless he is getting media coverage for bad behavior

Picking and choosing examples. So Duke fans ;chanting overrated while Harrison Barnes shoots free throws isn't personal because he is on a team? Or there is reasoning behind it? Because a kid "not making millions" who is "twenty something" played for a rival school?

There is nothing wrong with it. It's normal.

you are still obviously missing the point


No... I got your point. But, it's not correct.

There is booing in every single college sport in America whether individual or not individual sports.

These are all young adults who do not make money.

Your point just is not correct.

There is nothing wrong with booing. In fact, why don't you read articles about players saying they love being booed because then they know they are getting to the other team's fans or such. Booing isn't bad. It's taking it beyond booing, threats and acts of foul play.

Professional athletes have a city where they are liked and everywhere else they are hated. They go into different cities expecting to be hated by the fans. They enjoy making their haters unhappy. I doubt a professional gamer flies into IEM cologne expecting to be hated and booed and I doubt he was thinking "I'm gonna make those haters hate me even more LOL" while still having an entire established fan base elsewhere to fall back on.

Also, You continue to give examples of team sports when refuting a point about individual sports. Please, give me an individual sport where its acceptable to boo players solely because of their nationality?




To further the ridiculousness of your argument, the fans at IEM weren't booing Puma for being Korean. They were booing him for being the favored opponent against their national German favorite. His nationality made no difference... he just wasn't Socke. End of story.



finally someone who understands it


Its still a bad thing.

totally agree about it being bad thing. the blizzard event in poland was so godlike, fans cheering HARD for everyone, was so good. mr. bitters comment yesterday was so stupid, if you ask me that should have consequences.


Trying to recall what I might have said to prompt this discussion.

I was definitely pushing the crowd to support Socke, but I don`t recall asking anyone to boo Puma...

There wasn't a single person in the audience that didn't want to see Socke win yesterday, but there were still a lot of cheers for Puma win he closed out his 3-0.

That said, if I'm overlooking some comment that was way out of line, please let me know, and I'll be sure to address it on stream today.

You were not telling anyone too boo, that's true. Maybe you remember what you said after reading http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=256858&currentpage=68 and on. As you can see most people were wtfing at your words, even if they were your honest opinion i don't think it's good to say that as a caster.

Is that line from Mr. Bitter on the VOD? Anything more substantial than a forum post? Because that's pretty unprofessional if true.

What an insensitive, retarded thing to say. Shouldn't an english/american/australian have won this tournament then, by your 'historical' logic? Seriously grow up and learn what's appropriate.

Sockes mum didn't want the mighty PuMa to hurt her little son so she started to boo and point at PuMa but his radiant skill and charisma reflect it off and hit Socke in the eye and he forgot to FF the ramp and lost game 1

After that Socke felt abit sad and couldn't perform up to 100% agaist the agilie PuMa and got ravaged 3-0.

Woop Woop!
