Re: Language at Championships

I remember going down the hallway (I called the "stinky hall", everybody probably knows which one I'm talking about) to the arena during quarterfinals and hearing this team just yelling obscene words. It was extremely unprofessional. I've heard a lot of other things that really disappointed me this year as well, but not NEARLY as bad as the f-words coming out of their mouths.

Even language aside, I noticed a lot of people not really being very sportsman-like nor FIRST-like. I've seen people get so upset that they bust their safety glasses into pieces on the floor and yell at their other team members.

I'll close up saying that I was disappointed when I heard all the people laughing when the speech announcing the Chairman's Award was taking place. I thought it was very unprofessional and childish to say the least. I'd like to see any of the people laughing at the speaker (over something as silly as just having a running nose, which is what it sounded like) stand up in front of an international event and make a speech.
