Oddly enough, that's the serious argument one the local sports talk hosts (who played college football) offered up yesterday. A guy called in and said he was a youth coach, and always taught his players to set the ball down and go to the sideline. You can celebrate there. The host then jumps in and says, "But it's
football. It's an emotional game. [yadda yadda]."
This stuff is why I don't listen to much sports radio anymore.
