Why is Booing considered awful?

[Old Friend 8,389]

I have always felt that professional athletes who get paid to do what they do...get paid to win...get paid to excel are available for anything fans want to do within reason.  People can judge for themselves the class or worthiness of said hecklers, but toward professional athletes who people pay far more to see....and who reap benefit from that payment?  That's fair game.

 

College kids don't need to hear that.  People who boo kids are a low form of life as far as I'm concerned.  College athletes are kids.  Immature, not-quite-fully-developed kids.  Immature, usually unsure of themselves children.  OG Anunoby, for example, is 18 years old.  He can barely vote.  Can't buy beer yet. Teenagers don't know sh*t.  They make mistakes.  

 

The only reason to even get on a kid is due to lack of effort.  Of all the things we CAN critique, I don't think effort is among them in this program's recent history.   One man's opinion, but I think booing a kid says a ton more about the guy doing the booing than it does about the kid.  You cannot teach class, and booing a kid is classless in my mind.  To me it screams "I am the lowest common denominator."  Beneath intelligent people.

No one was booing a player (kid), it was directed to Coach.
