Not saying what may or may not have happened there was right... just that the atmosphere is a lot different now.As for booing at halftime being "classless" - how??? You're supposed to sit there and be all "golly gee, they're really trying their best, I just hope that nobody gets hurt"? Bullsh t. You pay >$300 for a ticket, plus whatever else they get you for, you have a right to expect a good performance, and to voice your displeasure with the product you just paid to see. Throwing stuff at the players? Spitting on kids? Flipping off 14-year olds? Wrong. Booing a team for a poor performance? Fine.This.Too much emphasis is put on "class". In fact, what the hell is "class" anyways? Everyone's individual interpretation of "class" is different, so what comes off as "classless" to one individual would be acceptable by someone else.Just ask a St. Louis Cardinals fan.

Unocal Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 When the Chargers travel to the New Meadowlands Stadium in 2011, Lights Out will be 100 percent rooting for the Chargers.Besides, it's not like there's a rule that says if your team isn't in the playoff, you must not support other teams IN the playoffs.What's Lights Out supposed to do- not pay attention to the playoffs just because the Bolts didn't make it?

When they arrived around 9 p.m., cops found Larsen unconscious and lying and the street. He was taken to Staten Island University Hospital South where he was pronounced dead, according to the NYPD.The driver of the 2006 Hyundai Santa Fe was not charged, police said.The Associated Press described the driver as a 61-year-old woman who happened to be driving her car past the spot when Larsen was hit. www.sportsecyclopedia.com For the best in sports history go to the Sports E-Cyclopedia at http://www.sportsecyclopedia.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Today we are all classless fans.Brandon Phillips is not classy, but Yadier Molina, the man whose overreaction caused the brawl of 2010, is. St. Louis baseball fans...That said, I've told sports fans to keep it classy before, but it was in cases when their behavior was indisputably not classy. These days I'm beginning to think that every fanbase is exactly the same. Some are skewed towards one extreme or the other (such as some being more obnoxious than others), but given a certain circumstance most every fanbase would react similarly.
