I assume you are talking about me here Corrus. If that is the case please allow me to point out that I never showed any anger towards you, never insulted nor threatened you in any way. If you don't care for the sport, that is your perogative. There are many sports that I do not enjoy so I don't pay any attention to them.
My point was, and still is, that I find it very rude of you to come in to this thread and repeatedly insult the sport (and by extention it's fans). I can't fathom what positive you see coming from such behavior nor why you feel compelled to continue acting in this way.
As for the behavior of some of the fans of the sport, there is no excuse for it. But this sort of thing happens around sports of all types in almost every country in the world. How many major titles have sparked riots in the US? Here in Denver somone was shot to death for sporting the jersey of the Broncos opponents after the Broncos has just won the Super Bowl. We have had rioting in the streets after both of the Avalanches Stanley Cup wins, riots in Boulder after a number of CU Buffalo football games. Sports bring out the worst in some people, which is truly unfortunate as it also brings out the best in the majority of participants and fans.
As for the picture, I feel that it is much more a statement on the parenting skills (or lack therefore) of that boy than an indictment of the sport as a whole.
