When people are targeting his screen-staring post-goal to needle, it’s not the act itself they’re upset about, it’s what the act signifies and it’s backed up by the context of being a recurring theme with Glen that’s thrown a wrench into team performance and identity all season.
I would disagree that it "signifies" anything beyond what each of us individually imagines. And all this conversation does is provide ample evidence for how active our own collective imaginations are. This whole discussion has been a grand exercise in confirmation bias.
