B
I remember a basketball game on our homecourt at Senn High School in Chicago.The kids from my school began booing (向……喝倒彩) the visiting team.After a minute or two, Senn's coach, Cap Leighton instructed us that booing the other team was impolite and therefore unacceptable, and it needed to stop immediately.Such was Coach Leighton's authority that it did stop straightaway.For the rest of the game we restricted ourselves to cheering on our own team.
How many people remember sportsmanship? I remember it and now think of it chiefly as something missing from contemporary sports.Sportsmanship was once central to tennis.The famous players, such as the great Australian generation of Rod Laver, Ken Rosewall, and John Newcombe, set an example for us.Harry Hopman, the Australian Davis Cup coach between 1939 and 1967, might send a player home for saying dirty words on the court.
However, some players dealt a blow to sportsmanship with their bad behavior on the court in the name of heightened competitiveness.And it's rude of me perhaps to point this
out on the weekend of the Super Bowl, but no sport has become more bereft (失去……的) of sportsmanship than football generally and professional football in particular.There is what is sometimes referred to as the 12th man in football.This 12th man is the home crowd who begin a burst of uninterrupted screaming when the visiting team has the ball, so that its quarterback can't hear instructions from the sidelines and his teammates can't hear his signal calling at the line of mixed fight.
Sportsmanship matters because without it sports are an empty proposition (命题).Sportsmanship implies respect — for the game, for your opponent and for yourself.A great part of the justification (理由) for sports is that it's a forcinghouse for building character.Accepting defeat with grace is one of sportsmanship's characterbuilding components.Without sportsmanship, sports are little more than grown men playing children's games.
