Fake softball energy trend

[The Man In Blue]

Twofold situation
OU and other teams like them that excessively celebrate every moment....

1. Think their behavior is fine. And how they see themselves maybe the most important part of what they are doing.
( regardless of what other people may think of them)

2. People watching and possibly players on the teams. See the behavior is inappropriate.
Maybe even classless.
Possibly even taunting.

Can understand why there are two different perspectives.

However IF #2 is acknowledged,
The NCAA could create rules to restrict some of this Behavior.

Which NCAA Baseball has stepped in and done. I don't think you will see NCAA Softball follow suit though, because the issues it causes don't have the same results in softball. That said, it is still equally as classless at times. When the opponents start taking exception and retaliating, then something will get done.

More detail please

Is that what happened in baseball?

It's hilarious how you dig into
the bottom of your pocket to
pull out a piece of dirt from the lint....

Don’t try and use analogies until you do what I suggested.

I think that TMIB is saying that women athletes aren't as quick to lose their minds over a perceived taunt as are men. And that is to the credit of women's sports. The only time I thought there might be bench-clearing brawls is when Haley Fagan was at Auburn and Auburn was playing Florida.

When I played in regionals against Fresno State there was a bench clearing incident that was nearly a brawl.
But it was because of the call of an Umpire. Not because someone cheered/taunted inappropriately.

You win..cannot match your wit and extensive grasp of the English language.

It looks like crap..optics are horrible. Did you not watch any of the pro league games where they did this?

They turn Angel Stadium into a motocross track and a monster truck event. So I am pretty sure they could make it into a softball field. Maybe two.

The answer to @pattar is the answer @Rolling Hard provided. I agree with you, pattar, that it generally terrible when done the way the Olympics did it. But if a facility knows they are going to have something more than a one-time event, it is amazing the transformations they can make. I'm saying they half-arsed it and can do better.

Maybe. However unless they can draw 30 to 40K the optics of a half full stadium would be bad enough..

Yes ^^^ they decided years ago to have it in one place and that was that.
