I still remember the first game I went to as a kid...Bengals fans cheered Kenny getting injured, writhing in pain of the field with his wife watching in the stands. He later called the fans 'stupid and classless'. I guess that has always stuck with me, and why I don't think it's funny to make jokes about injured players.
My first game was in Cleveland. I was spit on and another Bengals fan that they replaced with the Browns fan that spit on me (and was kicked out of the game), was replaced with a Bengals fan that had a black eye. This isn't baseball. It's up in the air how the fans are going to interact when I go to Bengals games, but I'm also used to Browns fans - lol. They're kind of terrible and that's part of the fun, the "dawg pound" isn't meant for non Browns fans.
I think it's poor taste to make fun of anyone injured, true. I mean AJ missed 53 games with a broken toe nail, so...lol.
But it's pretty hypocritical that you can't be sarcastic about something with someone you will never interact with, but you can be sarcastic (and rude) with people you are currently interacting with.
