Do you think sports fans go to far. No,is what I say cause they like that sport. People might riot when there teams lose but that dosn't mean there going to far. So are people going to far some will say yes some will say no.
It might look like a war zone but it is not. The title is (Do fanes go to far)do you say yes or no. There are lots of reasons that people are like this. There is a lot of rioting infact they love there team to much.
There might have ben out of control fans but that is there favorite team. My answer is no, is yours?Now days people riot and get thrown in jail for fighting and being drunk. Drinking is a bad habit so do not start drinking.
Being a big fan can actually make you a happier, healthier person. So are you with me or against me? This is a yes or no answer not a I do not know. So what do you say? I say they do not go to far they get to rambunctious.
This is what I say I say no. Are you with me or against me yes or no.I play a sport do you? The sport I play is soccer. That is my favorite sport.What is your favorite sport.

Do you think sports fans take it too far. I think yes! Cause people get too mad when their sports team loses. It is a part of life.
In the article, it says it all goes back in history. When people lived in tribes. They fought each other for food ,land ,and power some would even die. You would root for your tribe's leader because they have your lives in their hands.
Also in the article it says some feeling are linger for hours or days. For example, some fans get so depressed after a defeat that they skipped work and school. There has even been suicides.
In the article it states that for as long as there have been sporting events, there have been disagreeing fans. In the sixth century, fans of the charriot races in Constantinople were incensed when some of the racers were imprisoned. They fight and get in a big mess.
This is what I think about sports fans. I THINK NO! So I would like to know what do you think?

(Do Sports Fans Go too Far?)
Do you thank sports fans go too far? Yes, I do! You might not, but I tink that they are crazy and it just a game, not a war. So, I said yes, that when they lose there game they are killers .
When they have to shoot rubber bullets and tear gas into a crowd and load down with sheldes and riot gear, you know it is bad. Terrified parents clutched their children and ran to safety. And 15 officers were injured and at lest 60 peolpe was arrested.
The strangest part is the violence had nothing to do with war or politics . It was not protest against a terrible injustice. It was all about... wait for it... a soccer game!!!
During games, people scream and shout and holler histericly at there T.V. They whersip thire favorite athletes like gods and feel there wins and losses as if they was our own.
It is all part of fun of beingg a fan or is it? No daubt about it: Sports are really,really,really inportant to billions of people. But might we all be taking sports just a littel too seriously?

Do sports fans go too far? Are we taking it a little bit too seriously? Yes, we definetly do! Are sports just a game or do they have more meaning to certain people.
Angry mobs push their way through the streets, parents' clutch their children in fear, officers' and many others were injured. The article states,"There have been out-of-control fans since there has been sports teams." This is just crazy, and out of control.
Violence had absolutely nothing to do with it. It was not a protest against a terrible injustice, or a war of some kind, it was about a SOCCER GAME! According to the article,"Many fans in Buenos Aires, Argentina went on a rampage when they lost to Germany in 2014."
Some fans' get very emotional after a loss. The author states,'' Some fans' get so upset they skip work or school.'' It also explains, ''There have even been suicides'' .''Devoted fans feel happy and have more enjoyable lives, but when the team that you love loses, you do not really feel that anymore.
In conclusion, we need to understand that it is ok to envy your favorite team, but do not go insane just because of it. Sports are for entertainment and exercise, not an excuse for going on a rampage just for a silly game.

''NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!'' That is the sound of somebody screaming in pain because their team just lost a soccer game . The worst part is some people do not stop there, oh no they take it over the limit , and I think that they are silly for doing it .
As it said in the article people waste time, money, and energy on all the sports things they can get their baseball loving mits onto. For example, I was looking in a magazine , and I saw a pair of gloves with pom-poms on the finger tips with some sports team logo on it , and guess how much they were, twenty dollars I said to myself '' That is a bunch of bull. Twenty dollars for a pair of gloves '' I went and showed my sister she agreed that it was a bunch of bull too. I bet that it did not seem like a bunch of bull you sports fans out there .
In the article it states that it is just a game. Although some people make it into a much bigger deal than it really is. They act like it is the end of the world that their team lost a game, or made a fumble, or missed a free shot, or one of those things that could help the team win. What is the big deal about that?
It also says in the article that people can go nuts just because their team lost a game. People will kill themselves just because of it. I think that is a little stupid to kill yourself over a game. Are not we all better than that.
I wonder what would happen if my favorite sports team lost a really good game. I geuss we will never know because I do not watch sports.

Do Sports Fans Go Too Far???
Imagine you are sitting on your couch, watching your favorite sports game and they are about to score the winning goal, touchdown or basket, when CRACK!!! Lightning strikes and the power goes out. You are so mad that you feel the need to shout, yell, hoot, holler and carry on. OK, so that is a little crazy.
But did you know that there may be people in the same town that you live in marching down the streets for the very same reason? I mean it is bad enough that they have to examine every person's bag for laser pointers, and line the streets down with all the police officers in there heavy, high tech. gear and weapons. Now they have to stop riots from swarming the streets, like bees' swarming the hive! That is taking it way too far.
In some other country, after a soccer game, people went on a rampage. They broke store windows and burned anything in there path. Officers shot rubber bullets and tear gas into the crowd. Mothers took there children and dove for the nearest cover!
I mean, do you not think it is bad enough that we are shouting at our T.V.'s? And there are some people that are committing suicide!!! All over a simple game!!!
Do not get me wrong, I love sports as much as you. But suicide, rampage, and laser pointers are not the answer. Oh, what do laser pointers have to do with sports fans going too far? Well, a person can shoot a laser pointer in a players eyes and blind them! Just a few months ago, at a football game, a man took a tiny, green laser pointer and shot it at a players eyes so that the other team would get the ball!!!
So, we learned that people go on rampages, and commit suicide, and even go as far at too bring laser pointers into a game stadium so there team will win. I am just as competitive as you, maybe even more! But seriously, it is only a game. No need to go crazy!!

Do you think that sports fans go to far?Yes,I think they take it way to far.Fans go crazy over little things. According to the article,before order was restored,15 officers and at least 60 people were arrested.The violence had nothing to do with a war or politics.It was all about a soccer game. In the article "Do Sports Fans Go Too Far?" it states that soccer fans were so furious that their team had lost to Germany in the 2014 World Cup final that they went on a rampage.What happened in Argentia is certainly an extreme example of fans going way too far.But many of us crelate to feeling super-passionate about a team. There have been out-of-control fans for as long as there have been sporting events.In the sixth century,fans of the chariot races in Constantinople were incensed when some of the racers were imprisoned.The fans burned the city and tried to overthrow the `emperor;30,000 people died. The problems occur when strong feelings linger hours or days after a game has ended and start to interfere with life.For example,some fans get so depressed after a defeat that they skip work or school.There have even been suicides.

Yes it is just a game and we people take it way to far.I say that because it looks like a war zone if there team lost after the game is over.The violence wasn't even protested is the thing and i'll tell you more why they should have protested though.
Reason one is police in riot gear come ann fire at the mob with rubber bullets atleast it won't kill them because if it would they wouldn't shot at all.Funny fact there are alot of thing can go wrong in a stadium like say someone comes in just shooting everyone for fun,or just a crazy person running on the field without close on so really I dont think that the rubber bullets are that bad of an idea.There are people who go insane just when there team loses i feel bad for those people who live the person who is insane if they live with anyone.
Matter of life and death isn't even a question we should keep a live sacred to us life is presious.I think it would be unfair if we lost someone to something that wasn't evern there falute.But still we shouldn't go crazy over something if it is our sports team losing.
30000 people died in England over a sports mob. some psychologists belive that it all goes back to a distand period in history when humans lived in tribes.Today fan brawls as so commen that big U.S cities have to put extra police officers on the streets after big games.
so what do you think are games a big deal or yes it isn't a big deal? Yea i think that it isnt a big deal about games.all sports is is fisical activity that helps with your health.

Do fans take sports too seriously? Yes, I think they do. Fans are out of control!
In the article ,"Do Sports Fans Go Too Far", it states that there was a riot over a soccer game. We shouldn't make a big of a scene just because our team didn't win. Sports are mean't to be fun, not complained about.
The author says fans are out of control, and they are. There have been out of control fans as long as there have been sports. Shouting at the tv, breaking things, and crying because our favorite team didn't win. Why do we get so mad over it?
Why do we have to put extra officers on the street after a sports game? Because if someones team loses they go crazy. Fans in Jermany went on a rampage when their favorite soccer team lost. They had to send in more officers to help control them.
So sports fans do go too far, and they go crazy. We have to have extra police officers on the streets after games. Some sports fans take it way too far.

Are sports fans out of control? Yes,they are. I think they go crazy after the games and during them.
It lookes like a war zone! According to the articale People throw rocks at windows and smashing them. They run through the streets. police in ''riot gear'' fired rubber bullets and shot tear gas into the crowd. parents with children ran for safty.
In the artical some feelings linger hours after the game,or even days. It causes trouble and that is how those riots start. They try to get back at them for losing the game.
The auther says that it is all part of being fan....... or is it? No, sports are really really really important to billons of people. Well we might be taking sports a little to far.
Just be careful when you and your family are at the stadom and you are leaving. people in rage are pretty mean when they are mad. They are mad and they take it to far maybe a little to far.

Yes sports fans go way to far. Beacause the artical states that it is a matter of life or death. I agree because if a car was to crash near the crowd and explode it would kill people. And then they would sue the driver.
According to the artical there have been out of control fans for as long as there have been sporting events. Because they would go crazy if there team had lost. And then they get took to jail.
In the articalit says that. Fans one time burned a city and tried to over run the emperor. But that was in ancient times and people were crazy people then. But we have the law now so it is more safe now.
The author states that. 111.5 million americans wathed the 2014 Super Bowl. Thats a lot of americans to many fans. Thats a lot of money to but i can not belive the arena held half of the people. But we all know that 75% of the people watched it on Tellivision.
So fans, stop hurting people over a game. stop going crazy over a game. And its just a game please stop because we can not have any more people be hurt over a game. Because they will take people to jail if they hurt somone so stop hurting people over a game please

Do Sports Fans Go Too Far? I think they do. Some say that when Brazil lost to Germany it was like a war zone. Because fans were smashing windows and lighting stuff on fire.
There have been out-of-control fans ever since there have been sporting events. In the sixth sentury ,fans of the charioy races in Constantinople were incensed when some of the racers were imprisoned. They went through the whole town and burned it to the ground.
All of this stuff isnt over politics or war its over wait for it soccer its all over a soccer game the Brazil VS. Germany in the world cup. Most fans were devastated. I know me and my friends were after we watched it we all went outside and just started hitting stuff.
What happend in Argentina is certainly an example of fans taking it way to far. Also heres an other example one time during a football game one of the fans shined a laser pointer in the other players eyes when he went to throw the ball. Then at the next game they checked everyones bags for laser pointers.
Its all about being a fan, or is it. I think that fans take it way to far somtimes but not all the time. So thats my opinion whats yours.

NO, I don't think that we go to far, it's all fun and games nobody really gets hurt is what I would say if we didn't go to far, but we do. So this is what I am really going to say we go way to far with the riots and all that. Really sports fans do you have to go on a riot? I mean, seriously why do you want to start a big riot where someone would get hurt.
I mean why do want to start a fight your loved ones could get hurt. Plus when you get hurt you'll wish you never had started a fight. Because most of the time sports fans go insane.
In the article it says that in anctient times. People used to burn down buildings and tries to take over the king. They had to band sports there because of that. That's how insane sports fans are.
Also more Americans watched the superbowl than the presidential debate. It's a fact that more Americans like sports than any other thing in the world. More people cherish sports more than any other thing.
So sports fans try to slow it down a bit when your going crazy. It's just to much to be prancing around in riots. Just try to tone it down a little bit, please.

Are you a sports fan?well if you are you understand how crazy some people can get.i agree sports fans do get a little crazy over games.
The article states that sports fans can get a little to serious about their sports here is one story about how sports fans go to far sometimes."Soccer fans in Buenos Aires,Argentina,were so furious that their team had lost to germany in 2014 world cup that they went on a rampage. Now thats crazy IT'S JUST A GAME it's not like the end of the world.
In the article it points out that the fans of a particular sport team tried to over throw the emperor 30,000 people died. Now fan brawls are so common that major cities around the U.S have to put extra police officers on the streets after big games. Now that is sad that people can't just act like adults and watch a soccer or football game without fighting.
According to the article psychologists belive that it all goes back to a distant period in history when humans lived in tribes. These tribes fought each other for food,land and power,and the battles were truly a matter of life and death.That is very chiildish.
At the end of the day it's just a game and it does not matter.so get on with life.
