Southernmn Posted April 12, 2006 Share Posted April 12, 2006 You really can't defend anyone doing the jersey pop, or any other type intentional display, whose sole purpose is to piss some one off. Hockey (and most sports) are a very emotional undertaking, and letting emotions go is just fine. But these gestures have no place in sport no matter if the athlete is on your team or the the opposing team. It's just plain immature and wrong. I would have no problem with players getting unsportsman like conduct penalty's every time this happens. As far as the spitting goes.........we need to just get over that. Irman has never said that he was spit on in the penalty box. Taunted...yes, but that happens in every arena, at every game. Not even sure how that rumour got started. There are security people around every penalty box, and i doubt they have let that happen. Let's just get over it...please Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
