I've sometimes wanted to vent after games, but a lot of people seem to go completely unhinged. Weird.
Those that live to taunt the opposition go crazy. They become the taunted rather than the taunter. Trapped in a habit of taunting, they go after a player or a coach or a fellow poster to take it out on. The forum, as a vessel, becomes an echo chamber amplifying group unhappiness. One might characterize this as a kind of taunting derangement syndrome.
It's now Wednesday when the the national media's group thought begins to move from the past tense of last weekends games to the future tense of next weekend. That will help as the national media show moves on to other business.
But forums, as echo chambers, can reverberate for some time. This forum would really benefit from a stronger sense of good sportsmanship at the expense of less taunting. Heck, it's essentially impossible to talk about great plays or great calls by an opponent without it being shouted down by self inflicted echos of bench the Seahawk or fire this or that Seahawk.
Oh well, guess our forum has some things to work on the way to getting better ....... one post at a time. :229031_shrug: I would like to think we can grow out of bad behavior and cultivate good forum sportsmanship.
