This is just wrong

I was just at lunch at a sports bar and they had ESPN on. U.S. v. Bulgaria in men's volleyball. Every time a point was won, the team would all hug and pat each other, just like in women's volleyball.

It was just wrong.

About 30 seconds. At first, I hoped it was just the Bulgarians doing it.

But then the U.S. scored.

And I threw up.

is it any different than hugging someone after they do something good in football, baseball, basketball, hockey, lacrosse?

Yeah, a shirtless team hug is really weird.

Your QB kissed his roomate on the sidelines last year. You should be used to this type of interplay among male athletes.

But at least his roomate bought him dinner and drinks first.
