The player that's happy is the one who punched the other girl in the face, they stopped talking about her.

That was someone from a no name school playing in the consolation tournament IIRC.

So it's situational manners.

It should matter as much as the championship game - manners are manners.  Unless the situation changes the level of importance, that is.

That's great.  What did I post that led you to think a player sucker punching another in the handshake line doesn't matter?

I got your implied point.  What I didn't get was how you inferred based on anything that I've posted that I don't think a player sucker punching another in the handshake line matters.

Your post can be read as a dismal of the importance of the act rather than an understanding of the media's lack of interest. I read it the second way, guess PDH read it as the first.

The bruhaha is completely manufactured.  It is entirely possible that the dogpile on Reece was because of her skin color.  None of the players thought anything of it.

Yes, he was!

Look, I'm older than some here, younger than others, but all I can say is that they don't make chocolate malts like they used to.
