my 19 year old at the US open senior finals last year got fish hooked by an olympian...
totally on purpose and done to prove a point because my kid is who he is...
i did not notice it live because of my angle mat side...
showing him hours later his comment...
"that's awesome... can i do that?"
none of us thought to manufacture any outrage...
none of us thought to make some impassioned post on a silly bbs...
none of us even contemplated that ildar was dirty or a punk or irredeemable...
we all saw it as eastern european lessons of respect to a young cocky kid...
a fish hook...
imagine what some of you all would have thought about that...
but, please...
do carry on...
