After an impressive dunk, NBA players release primal yells. NHL players raise their stick and a skate into the air and do a one-legged jig after scoring a goal. And more than a few baseball sluggers have stood at home plate admiring their work a little longer than usual.
Tiger Woods ... you know, back when he was Tiger Woods... pumped his fist, his face contorting whenever he dropped a big putt in a major championship ... you know, back when he won major championships. Such displays were the antithesis of accepted conservative golf decorum. The old guard considered it tacky and in bad taste.
What Alburquerque did was nothing compared with the competition.
Who is Josh Reddick to stand as judge and jury in regards to respecting the game after he showed up the home-plate umpire by angrily flipping his bat after a disputed called third strike?
