A New Year's Resolution For All Players

Stop cursing on the court! It's ignorant, it's unprofessional, and it's not sportsmanship-like. Players now just say it like saying hi and bye. Saying the "F word" after you miss a lay-up is not going to make the next lay-up go in.  What can you possibly gain from throwing belligerent profanities out on the court for everyone to hear? If I was a coach scouting a game, and my recruit displayed a lack of care for the game by cursing, I would most likely remove he/she from my list. I don't need a player like that on my team. I need positivity. I don't get it. What's wrong with just saying it in your head? This way you hear it and no one else does. Be as frustrated as you want without scarring the 3 year old boy that is sitting in the front row watching the game. You never know who is in the stands.

This year let's strive to play clean. If you have to, take a nice cap full of Listerine, gargle, and spit the profanities down the sink before every game. It will leave you with pearly whites and a clean attitude. :)
