I am sure people will be upset by the act, but I kind of like it. I don't mind a little showmanship, especially if it riles up the opponent and makes the games more intense and interesting. There is obviously a time when that sort of thing can cross the line (see, e.g., Avery, Sean), but lots of times it's just good fodder for a rivalry.
