I'm glad Denver won last night. I haven't really been into sports very much in 3 years, but I seemingly can't avoid it.
This was crazy though. The MVP of the league, the media darling, the guy always boisterous and bragging, dancing and making himself the spectacle ups and walks out of his interview clearly frustrated and butthurt.
Now a lot of people well see this as a problem with one of the following: being black, being a millennial, being a black male millennial. However, while parts of all of this are likely true, I think it is indicative of a larger problem of over all decay of American/Western values and there isn't I feel a better example than this.
Like I said earlier, this guy had a career year shown by how he celebrates, dances on the field after every success, had a cinderella type story in college a few years back but was kind of a fuck up in his youth.
In victory he's overall exuberant and comes off as quite arrogant although he's just showboating and not really doing it towards the opponent.
But in defeat he is utterly cowardly. A glass jaw totally. He gets hit once and just buckles.
Completely despondent, curt, rude when 48 hours before he's all smiles, dabs, and superman. He comes off almost like Low Ti3r God if you're familiar.
What do you guys think, not get all /sp/ on here but why does it seem like we only see overly celebratory big kid type winners and overly despondent or apathetic big kid losers. This applies to politicians, businessmen, people working in fast food, anything really. They want every little victory celebrated on social media and even the relatively minor failures completely erased.
How do you pin down and combat this problem.
Sorry if this is to /sp/ but I feel like it touches on a larger issue of our age.
