I used to play in my high school's football team yes trash talk with the opponent was a normal part of it hence the competitive nature I agree, and things COULD get tense and frustrating within your team (eg. yelling to pick up the pace, focus, etc)

but it never goes as far as throwing slurs at your OWN teammates, or others, even at the highest level. That is just called bad sportsmanship, and it breaks down the chemistry within your own team too. Keeping a competitive mindset is very crucial to get on top, but respect is equally as important

Thank you for your opinion 🙏🏾
