EXCUSE ME if this has been posted....

While we're on the subject, I cannot stand to watch a player scream or yell while running back on defense after making a good play or a dunk. I understand that he would be excited, but it seems so childish to me. That's probably just me and my conservative bent. Unfortunately, AJ does it and when he does I just wince. It's just like a football player acting the fool after a touchdown in my opinion.

I don't think there's anything wrong with yelling. I've seen both JT and AJ do it after a dunk.

Celebrate the success. One of the few problems I had with Mark is that he didn't seem to enjoy winning enough...that's why they play the game.

Nice pull on that one, Doc, and you're right.

I wish we could tell when Marshall is having fun and when he's not? :D

In defense of MT, he definitely enjoyed the good moments. Remember against Vanderbilt when Jamar got the missed rebound and put it back? MT was higher off the floor than any of the players. Just sayin...

P'Rod.

P'Rod Poutypants (for those of us with young kids into SpongeBob).

Right, it's the kids! ;-)

You're right and that's kind of my point. I think Mark believed he had to act a particular way and that way was reserved (just like his mentor Larry Brown). When he opened up and let loose he was great and still professional. When he allowed his natural fire to come out, he was at his best.

Remember the home SIU game? Turg with emotion was tough to beat.

Hey, it's not for everyone. Some have it, some don't and some don't know how to use it.

Fortunately, we have it all right now.

I love the display of emotion as long as it isn't disrespectful. Ramon does it and it's what we love about him. He is always yelling after a dunk, or getting fouled after going up hard...etc. It's not selfish at all and can actually pump the rest of the team up....ALOT...along with the crowd. I say keep it coming! Thumping your chest a couple times and yelling after a hard nosed play is a good thing IMHO. Sliding across another team's logo or other forms of "showboating"...not a good display of emotion.

I LOVE a yell or scream after a dunk or big block.

I also would love a "most muscular" pose after a big dunk or block.

The dancing in the endzone I don't like.

What is YHO re P'stink running half the length of the court with his nose in the air, screaming with his mouthpiece clear for all to see?
