There ...Oh, and FYI: Puig sliding into home was BS. There is no "cultural" thing - if you play the game, you know you don't do anything that shows up the other team. EVER.<br /><br />If I remember, a couple years back, Kyle Beach of the Blackhawks was playing a game in the AHL. He had an open net and hot dogged the shot. He got jumped for doing that, and rightfully so. Yes, he is a member of the Hawks farm club and I think he deserved to get jumped for breaking that rule.<br /><br />When Chad Johnson did that dance on the Cowboy's center field logo, he deserved to get drilled. When players stand and get all cocky about a home run they hit, they deserve to get brushed back off the plate. If someone throws at Puig tonight, he has it coming. BTW - is there some rule you have to jump on the plate on a walk off? Just jog in a touch it, duh.<br /><br />Phenom or not, learn the rules and don't be an asshole.
