Professional football

It is getting harder and harder to watch pro football...the players spend so much time at the end of plays drawing attention to themselves with childish antics that it really gets on my nerves.

I'm watching the Broncos vs Carolina Panthers.

1st quarter. Just saw a Bronco - think it was Von Miller. He sacked the quarterback, then did a ballet movement where he hopped on one foot with his other foot up in the air. Looked so stupid. And eventual result of the drive? Panthers scored a touchdown.  Why celebrate a single play, with a drive from your opponent that is still going? You moron. Save your celebrating for the end of the game when you know whether your team has won or lost.

In the same drive, some humongous running back for the Panthers had a good run. Instead of getting back with his teammates immediately - intent as he was on getting his team a touch down, eh?, he stood on the sidelines and posed, deliberately brushing grass off his uniform. Once he'd milked it for a couple of minutes, then he deigned to join his teammates.

Childish behavior that just annoys me.
