When I was in high school the thing people did was if you were bending over for any reason was they would poke your bootyhole with their thumb.
It's just a locker room thing. Stuff like that happens even in NBA locker rooms. You see Parsons doing something like that to Lin or Griffin nut-tapping Parsons.
Just because YOU arent cool with it doesnt mean other people arent. They are friends and dont have a problem with it. It is weird that you guys are making such a big deal about it.
Nutt Tapping yes, I've been on teams and in the military seen it a thousand times. "Hey! what's that over there!" nutt tap! But a dick grab? too far, that's borderline hazing man. Just keep it in the locker room not on live television geez. On a lighter note at least Dwight nutt grab wasn't the most awkward thing on TV this week, lol. http://time.com/3705768/family-feud-awkward-gerbil/
Is there a psychological reason jock-types like to harrass other guys' dicks/balls? As others have kind of mentioned, the one thing I hated about playing high school football was constantly having to guard my nuts from getting tapped, hit, or grabbed by teammates. Maybe our hairier ancestors used to attack competitors' crotches to prevent them from mating and this is some sort of holdover of that.
I remember back in high school we use to play slap the sack. Guys would go around an back hand slap your sack if you didnt have it covered or protected. Which was fun an games. But what Dwight did is out of control. He grabbed a handful of penis an testis an squeezed! And imagine how huge Dwights hand is!!
LOL, it definitely wasn't a tapp. Dude I used be so pissed with those tapps and I would sorta laugh at the same time because I let them catch me off guard but this was not a tapp.
Made it to yahoo. (Probably already posted, but not reading this thread.) http://www.sbnation.com/lookit/2015...howard-crotch-grab-nuts-isiah-cannaan-rockets
I don't see the problem. Dwight is just sitting to the right of Canaan the whole time. Now when Dorsey sits down and gives him the "open-nuts", now that is uncalled for.
It's actually just a stupid joke, and not that big of a deal. See this video for details: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UoQ5goVpjyM
Maybe part of Dwight's rehabilitation is to dress like Calvin and absorb some of his free-throw power. I'm for it. Also, Dwight was doing Canaan a favor. He showed the world that McHale had only neutered him as a basketball player and nothing more.
