    I would guess who ever planned it didn't think about any negative associations but thought it would be fun. I personally do not think spitting to be fun and would rather not witness such an event but that is me!

    I think a watermelon seed spitting contest on Juneteenth is probably just intended as good clean fun, but I can see why people might be concerned about it appearing racist. I wouldn't read too much into it unless someone gets bent about it.

    i think of this is something we've all time-honored for a on a similar time as - a minimum of i've got theory so! The top League may be between the ideal leagues in Europe, in spite of the undeniable fact that it is likewise between the worst-run: this is obscene wages and crippling bills are putting out to get closer the golf equipment. Portsmouth in administration and West Ham purely merely prevented it - might desire to that be the likes of Liverpool in a 12 months or 2 in the event that they fail to make the Champions League next season (exceptionally much inevitable)? this is massively hyped up, to be basic - there are no longer any golf equipment from the self-proclaimed "ultimate league interior the international" interior the Champions League semi-finals (ok this is the 1st time in view that 2003, yet that don't advise it extremely is going to be a one-off). particular, l. a. Liga is a 2-horse race (actual and Barca), however the top League is, enable's be basic, a three-horse (Arsenal, Chelski, ManUre). in my view i think of the bubble is approximately to burst. "Tik Tok on the clock however the occasion do no longer provide up" - properly it might desire to be approximately to provide up very quickly, to be basic. the larger they're, the greater sturdy they fall.

    I wasn't aware that there was a history behind spitting watermelon seeds. Sounds like just a fun time to me.

    well... I guess it all depends on how it's done...

    odds are...it's probably on the up and up...

    but if they make a bunch of racist jokes and such... then it's not good...

    basically it's about intent...
