Oh see and I assumed the brushing off is because of his love story because I’ve seen talk of other football players that did not go this way But also I think the NFL sucks and allow a lot that other sports won’t. This behavior would not have been ok with basketball unless of course you are Draymond green but even he gets suspended Brushing off what? There's a lot of behavior I dont like during football games but here we are only talking about Travis. And somehow Taylor is to blame for him acting shitty. I dont even care about their love story or talk about it this much IRL Someone said it’s because of Taylor? Because all I’ve seen is that its a pattern and has been over years

Coming in at awkward point in the convo, but… our team didn’t win, but H and I did net $80 on squares with the final score, sooo… that’s fine with me lol. I wanted SF to win but mostly I wanted the scores to be where I was on the bracket. Of course I was never close and didn't come home with any money.

Draymond Green had a guy in a headlock for a good 10 seconds, pulling him along the court. Travis yelled two sentences to his coach and grabbed his arm. And TBH, it looks like he grabbed his arm because he realized he stumbled.

I think the issue many are having is not just about Kelce but the use of aggression whether it be in sports or otherwise. We need to show our young people that when things don’t go their way or when they are frustrated that getting angry and then physical (even just a little) is not ok. We need to teach them that there are other better ways for dealing with these emotions. We should not be excusing such behavior as “passionate.” If we don’t start calling out behavior like this it’s going to continue no matter who you are/what team you’re on/sport you play. Again back to my earlier comment, if we wouldn’t allow it at kid levels why is it acceptable here other than we say it’s just part of the game.

Ok but this is not an intellectually honest approach around the media and social networks today. People are not, as an overall observation, linking this to "violence in sports and role modeling for the children." That is not the conversation that is going on today, generally speaking.

Also, he grabbed his arm. I don't think it was that violent. It's loud AF in a stadium.
And tossing a helmet in frustration is not violent either.
But as I said, UO.

There’s literally been games where players have jumped in the stands and fought fans. A star-player yelling at his coach that he wants to play at the biggest game of the year does not even register to me as anger management issues at sports games.

And TBH, it looks like he grabbed his arm because he realized he stumbled. This is an odd comparison to me. Draymond is a known problem - no one is brushing it off. He was suspended indefinitely and completed counseling to be reinstated. It is talked about endlessly and his reputation is completed ruined.

Right, but people are acting like what Travis did is on the same level/should have the same repercussions (all over, not specifically this thread). And that's...no.

This is when I wonder if I'm just on Twitter more than others here, bc man do I see different discourse than is often referenced on this forum. On a lot of topics.
And my algorithm should just be pinko lib stuff and HW, so if it's breaking through to my timeline, it's bad.

I think it’s somewhere in the middle. It wasn’t behavior we’ve never seen before but it was notable. The crowd I was with definitely noticed and took as a sign that KC was in meltdown mode. Which they were for the first half. They played a much better second half.

I want to be a friend and respect boundaries, but that makes it challenging.

I would say I would listen to sports radio this morning and report back on the dialogue around Trav but I can’t do the cry in my beer stuff on a Monday. It’s going to be rough.

It’s going to be rough. I feel this is the benefit of being a Cleveland sports household. We only know crying into our beer on Mondays.

You are reacting solely on emotion (the very thing you are lambasting him for doing, by the way) and not taking a step back to analyze rationally.
