Watched a little football last night. A linebacker made a very routine tackle. Then he got up, did a little dance, pounded his chest and strutted around like the stud of the stadium.
Watched a little baseball last night. A short stop dove across what seemed to be half the field to knock down a line drive, then, sprawled on his stomach, he somehow managed a backhanded flip to second for a force out to end the inning. A spectacular play! Then he got up, dusted himself off, and trotted off the field. Not even a smile.
Too many football players showboat. Baseball players still have class.
In the 1950s, football players used to have class, too.

You never said truer words, brother! And that's one reason I can't stomach football.
I hear you. College football isn't as bad as the pros but it's getting there. It's laughable to think of Jim Brown doing a dance after a touchdown. What a bunch of jerks play the game today.
