Stop whining!

Referee. What do these people have to endure? Whatever they do is wrong, and if they do nothing, it is even more wrong. To let everyone know about this injustice, professional athletes have developed a multi-faceted habit of complaining and whining (medical term: Morbus Megaphone). This reflex is especially pronounced in professional football, where even a whistle for tea is now accompanied by wild storms of protest. Since the authorities do nothing about it, these bad habits have become the norm, including a role model for amateur footballers and young footballers.

In hockey you turn up your nose at such conditions, but even there it is no better, as the final series between Biel and Servette shows. Debate regularly breaks out only after long-range illegal shots, during breaks the referees are attacked, surrounded, insulted or involved in lengthy discussions of who plays the foul, brushes off, the one who is fouled demands a penalty, and if nothing happens, then – you know .

emotions? Rugby players too

In various sports, whining is explained by: Emotions. They say you should be allowed to show emotions. So it is with emotions: rugby players also have them, and referees are treated with respect. They are addressed there with “sir” and only: captains. Only the captains talk to the judges – this rule has been laid down in hockey for a long time, and the judges knew that this is what we must endure. It’s probably time to get this rule out of the mothball box.
