Yeah, I agree, it's not just sports, it's just people with a weird herd/"group think" mentality.
Lived in Long Beach during the LA riots of 1991 (?) when the cops that arrested Rodney King were acquited..folks burned down their OWN neighborhood ...there was no diapers or formula available for MILES and they were asking for help ...let alone beat the tar out of and nearly killed that innocent truck driver.....Bizarre, I'll never understand it.... 'nuff said....
