    I remember where I was when I saw this happen live. It's burned into my memory because you just don't expect this sort of thing to happen in Marble Sports. But, like most safety regulations, the rules are written in blood. It takes a tragedy like this to see where the gaps are in the protection of players. Suddenly, the athletes' concerns from before the event weren't "exaggerated" or "overblown" as some JMRC members were quoted as saying ahead of the event.
    For this reason, I think Team Momo is the only team that no one really actively roots against. A part of every fan wants to see them win the Marble League one day. It will be a great end to Momomomo's comeback story.

    I was there at that day and remember it as if it happened just yesterday. I was up in CCE's block waving my banner. The crack wasn't even that loud through the whirring of these horrible, eye cancer-inducing spinning devices, it sounded like a window being split, and the whole stadium fell silent at once like they were feeling the pain themselves. Everyone desperately watched the medics approach to carry him off the pitch. My six-year-old son was with me and I had to cover his eyes to keep his young soul undamaged. The other players were comforting Wispy who was fighting with tears and could hardly be convinced to get off Momomomo's side to let the medics take care of him. The rest of the day was overshadowed by this; the cheerings were more silent, the chants more feeble, the thoughts of everyone hardly on the pitch but with Momomomo and the hope of his recovery.
    It was a shock to hear that he was off for the rest of the season. They sure should have made a greater deal on the safety of the spinners and their impact on the athletes. Something like this should never, ever happen again in ML.

    • @phauxdy
      @phauxdy 3 ปีที่แล้ว +14

      I can't imagine how graphic and petrifying such a collision could be for an entire stadium of people. It's absurd to imagine just how fast a mood can shift from lively and enthusiastic to somber and guilty. I'd feel guilty to be witness to that and not be able to do anything. I was lucky only to see this on television when it happened, but the collision was painfully obvious from the camera POV. All i could look at poor Momomomo's piece gliding across the white canvas of the play field. To see a favourite team of mine experience such an undeserved defeat, that only made me want to see their eventual victory more. So happy to see them reigning the league in 2021.
