While screaming: “GO BUCKEYES! WOOO HOOOOOOOO!”
This is not a debate, (or much of anything else), but it is more a collections of odd opinions than anything else.
Off to IMHO.
Your honor, as God as my witness I thought a drunken, rioting, “cheese head” could fly!
yes, that’s right…all that energy just has to be released. Nothing wrong with that…After all, energy is energy, and E=mc2
Now for a few facts:
When I was in college (1975), our team won the championship. Result: mayhem and violence in the streets.
As Einstein would say: E=mc2, plus a million dollars in vandalism.
But the last time our team had won the championship ( a generation earlier, 1950), the students all lined up neatly and formed a snake dance that wound through the streets, with NO violence…
As Einstein would say: E=mc2, plus a lot of happy people dancing.
Maybe the laws of physics have changed ?
They haven’t. You’re right.
You’re spot on with this.
And frankly it’s not hard to understand.
I recall when I was a little kid there was an old house with windows that were broken. We kids would go over and throw rocks at the windows. Even though most of the window was already broken, we wanted to see if we could break it more.
And you know what? It was FUN. Yes it was fun to throw rocks at a broken window to break it even more.
Of course I was eight at the time, but I think when you get drunk, you tend to revert to simpler times. Then even if you’re not drunk you suddenly get caught up in group mentality.
Then the line of reason goes like this
Drunk guy breaks window and non-drunk guy is happy and he says “Gee you know what, that window is already broke, so why don’t I throw a rock and break it some more.”
What I never understood is why people yell “We won.” You didn’t win, the players won, you watched. I think Seinfeld used to do a routine about this.
