Re: ***OFFICIAL*** New England-Buffalo Thread
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] I don't want to start a whole American vs. European sports ethics argument, but this whole concept of running up the score being unethical would be unthinkable in any European sports. It's just not thought about. [/ QUOTE ] I don't want to debate either, but I'm interested in hearing about this....are you saying that "running up the score" is a notion that only exists in America? [/ QUOTE ] It certainly doesn't exist in any sports I'm aware of in Europe. Of course, subbing key players and stalling when having a lead frequently occurs, but the concept of "running up the score" (with the implication that doing so is somehow unethical) simply doesn't exist afaik. [/ QUOTE ] Well it exists in Basketball and that's widely played in Europe same with Hockey. I mean what European sports are there? Isn't soccer the only one widely played in a majority of countries? |
