And yeah I'm totally serious.

If the antics that went on in the NFL, and to a lesser extent the NBA, came over to MLB I'd be seriously turned off as a fan. But hey I'm a traditionalist.
Except you hear about a grand total of like three players that are assholes and have obnoxious end zone celebrations. Most of the sport is just guys doing what they have to do to win.
