4EverydayPlayers: Do You Celebrate If You Clinch

[@legendm0de]

...a playoff berth, or division title.

I sure as hell would, lol. In light of the Dodgers diving into the Diamondbacks pool today, How far have/would you go in a celebration for such a event. It's at least worth a rare beer for me while I kick back on my couch, same for you? or would you take it even.. further?

I'm jumping into my own pool if I clinch the division. As for my Dodgers, I am happy now, but the job is not finished. World Series Champions or bust.

If I had champagne I'd probably pop champagne in my own bedroom.

If I was an Arizona player....I would have drank a quick pot of coffee......a whole bar of laxative and dropped trou in the pool while they were in there.

Personally I don't see the big deal with LA celebrating, but that's just me.

Players celebrate after road victories all the time, especially in other sports.

If you don't want them celebrating, don't give them something to celebrate.
Sometimes I feel like baseball needs to man up, collectively.

Celebrating....on the field for a while and in the locker room .....of course.
Going out to the other areas? Out of bounds IMO.
YOUR field....have at it anywhere you want.

As PTI Wilbon said, "I don't see the deal with the sanctity of the pool. If you don't want the Dodgers celebrating in your house: next time beat them."

It's not about sanctity...it's not about the pool itself....it's about class and sportsmanship.
Things that are SORELY lacking in sports these days.
IMO when you win on the other guys turf....you shake hands...and celebrate in private like a nut.

Here is an example of class......Chuck Foreman....Minnesota Vikings...would score a touchdown and simply walk over to the ref and hand him the ball. Like a man...not like a little child.
