Reply to comment by sdurs in Quay Walker is seen crying after being ejected for shoving a member of the Detroit Lions’s athletic team. by globe_explorer245

No, they're not interchangeable. One shows accountability, the other doesn't. If you can't tell the difference there then you're not equipped to have this conversation.

What accountability are you referring to? Mouthing words in a tunnel? Or crying because you were caught doing something wrong?

It was obvious to anyone with emotional intelligence that he was breaking down because he was mad at himself for making a stupid mistake - not because he was mad at being punished. And that was confirmed when he stated that exact thing in his apology.

If you can't tell the difference between those two things, that's your problem, not mine. And it would also be kind of ironic, since you're criticizing Walker for his emotional immaturity while you're right there with him.

I don't think someone who takes personal digs at someone during discourse should be lecturing in maturity. Not once have I made this about you

Your emotional maturity is germane to your ability to evaluate and interpret the emotions of others.
