Universal Love Players throwing a sign before and after the song 🤟 Rest In Peace Michael 🤟

[uncyherb]

There was mention in the coverage yesterday about the Essendon players making signs before and after the team song was sung. Of course BT had no idea, and I don't think anyone has reported on it.



It looks to me like the players might have watched this video that surfaced during the week of NBA/MLB sportscaster Ernie Johnson Jnr. talking to a college team...




If this is indeed what it appears the team were doing, then this speaks volumes about the positive culture that they're creating at Tulla.

Wow. If you do nothing else today, watch that video clip.

That was a bloody good watch after the s**t covid news today.

Wonder if that was something Rutten has been doing with themes while they have been on the road or the boys stumbled onto it themselves.

Pretty damn cool.
I get the feel it would be something the coaches brought in but would expect someone like Draper being a massive emotional softy and really running with it.
He probably says I Love You instead of hello

...because nothing says I love you like doing zumba with a covid mask over your eyes.

 

[Schnitzengruben]

Yeah, saw this during the game and thought it was some variation of the celebration Redman was doing earlier in the year. Clearly a completely different meaning.

Love to see it. EJ is an amazing human being. A large part of the reason why I watch inside the NBA yet very little basketball.

 

[Mr Bultitude]

I haven't watched the video yet but are they saying "I love you" in ASL?

 

[Dave]

Yes. And it's well worth the watch. Not ashamed to say I teared up.

 

[Ati Tude]

Yes. And it's well worth the watch. Not ashamed to say I teared up.

Yes, definitely watch it rather than just rely on the Ess picture part of this story. The video backstory is well worth your few minutes.

[Unfazed]

Wow that video was not what i expected. Great stuff.

 

[Mr Bultitude]

Yes. And it's well worth the watch. Not ashamed to say I teared up.

Awesome. Used to date an American who was an ASL interpreter, probably the only sign tidbit I remember

 

[Cold Sober]

WATCH IT.

 

[Mr Bultitude]

Watched it. Powerful perspectives. The "I don't have to I get to" is an awesome mantra.

I used to lead a youth group and I used to remind them that "you may not change the world, but you can change someone's world."

Our boys invested in building deep bonds. Love it.

[rumply]

Ernie Johnson is on SEN now, I'd say this will all be getting more coverage in coming days.

[owen87]

I do like that Matt Gwelfi.

 

[VelvetSledge]

I do like that Matt Gwelfi.

Stiff to be the only one without a tag, even Duzz got one and he’s been here 5 minutes

 

[rumply]

Tim Watson said this morning they are sending Ernie a Bombers kit so we've got a new convert, doubt he'll be shy spreading the word
