Re: Cheering, standing ovations, and required team actions during matches and awards

Enthuastic cheering for other teams...man, what a bunch of jerks. Haven't these people heard of gracious professionalism?

At many sporting events (the Indianapolis 500 comes to mind), all of the spectators stand at exciting points such as during the start and finish of the race, or when something exciting happens on the track. Nobody tells anybody else to sit down...if you want to see, you have to stand up too! Why should FIRST be any different?

Perhaps a location should be reserved for scouts or media people wanting to videotape matches, but for the most part complaining that you can't see because other teams are cheering seems silly. Especially during the award ceremonies...what exactly did you want to see, anyway?
