It's no different then 30 guys on the Marlins jumping all over themselves after winning the world series, guys doing dancing in the end zones, Kenseth shredding the infield grass after winning a Nascar race, etc. Of course, when you reach the pinnacle of your profession there's always a bunch of jealous detractors...

I remember no one liked Mohamed Ali for his mouth or actions at the time either. Times change.
Life is passing to a new more expressive generation. Tattoo's, body piercing and hair coloring for example.

Other "Bad" examples:

Parents reaction to Rock and Roll Music and dancing in the fifties and early 60's
Elvis
The Beatles

I'm in my 50's and it does not bother me in the least. This is not Golf you know. It's just plain outcatching the best of the best. That was his dream, and he achieved it. He is young, let him blow off a little steam. I would. Maybe not in the same way, but I would make a ruckus.

Maybe it has to do with Ego. I wouldn't know. I left mine in the service in the 60's with a lot of other guys.

My opinion of Mike Iaconelli remains the same. He made a complete and
total ass of himself. You never saw Yelas, Van Damm, or Hite act like
that when they won their crowns. To me the way Iaconelli acted rates
right up there with Terrell Owens(49ers-the Sharpie incident) & Joe
Horn(Saints-the cell phone)....classless.
I believe that you should act as if you've been there before. I wonder
if Iaconelli had a Sharpie on board would if he'd taken it out and
signed the fish?
