Message: [QUOTE="JellyBean, post: 4211178, member: 1997"] I am all in favor of getting rid of the handshake line. Fights, arguments, fake handshakes, or racial slurs get thrown in the mix, during the handshake. Then once the mess happens, there is an investigation. Then it becomes a whole bunch of foolishness. One team lies because they have a power dynamic in the conference, gets off with a slap on the wrist. While the other team gets labeled and every game, they play going forward, becomes a test. A test to see how you react to not getting calls, how you react to fans calling your players names, and my favorite, attending "Sportsmanship" conferences and training sessions. Get rid of the handshake line. This whole Covid mess has allowed us to wave at teams & go on about our business. Now I say all that but if there is a team or a coach that you and your team are really cool with, shake hands. [/QUOTE]
