Apparently "Extended Home Run Celebrations" now means all celebrations, anybody that shows emotion or anyone considered a hot dog in any sport.
Ever hear of a guy named Deion Sanders? Or the 85 Chicago Bears? Reggie Jackson? Usain Bolt? How did those guys perform under pressure?
And when I was growing up you know who the most hated "hot dog" in MLB was? Pete Rose.
The Houston Astros won a world series a year ago, and they are celebrating all over the field. Running out of the dugouts to feed players gummy bears for hitting home runs. Conga lines in the dugouts. Bouncing on the field like kids after victories.
I used the word "usually" in my previous post, which, does not mean 100%. You then came up with six, mostly poor, examples, from multiple sports, stretching back over 50 years. *golf clap* And a little FYI, Pete Rose is still one of the most hated people in all of baseball.
fredtoast math . . . 1 home run in the first inning by the, 5 year running, last place, Cincinnati Reds equates to a first time ever World Series Championship by a team playing in a city recovering from a natural disaster. Emotions are exactly the same on that one, good call, bro.
