Title: Automatic chant
Post by: goldeneagle91114 on November 11, 2012, 05:05:19 PM
I thought this was mentioned last year, but I thought and inside source had requested that the student section stop chanting "automatic" when Davente was shooting free throws. I think we are the only student section in the country that makes noise when our own team is at the line.

The student section was in mid season form--they were rockin to start the game. Unfortunately, some players looked to be in mid season form as well. Jamil flashing the 'hang loose' hands after his 3s was awesome.

Yea, before the game on the screen Davante was talking about his favorite part of the student section and he said it was the automatic chant.

Yup. Can't fault the students at all. Davante called for it, and considering that after missing the first FT he finished 4/5 from the line, you can't fault DG for calling for the automatic chant either. If he hits 80% all year long, chant away.

Not a big fan of the chant, but if DG wants it, give it to him.

In any event, I have to admit that the hushed version of the chant in the second half was pretty cool.

I'd prefer a chant of "I Be Chillin".. or "You Be Chillin" when Big Sheesh is at the line. Maybe even a big "DOE!!!!!!!" if the FT is made.

Basically, the chant is both stupid and inaccurate.

It's a chant moron, get over yourself.  Davante already said he likes it, what's the big deal to all you old curmudgeons?  Games are supposed to be fun, if you want to go to every Heat, Lakers, and Mavs game and chant "AUTOMATIC" every time one of those guys shoots a free throw, be my guest.  And to say that it's distracting to a player to hear a chant during a free throw is beyond absurd.  D Rose and LeBron hear "MVP" chants every time they go to the line.  Go back to sitting on your hands during the game and let the drunk students do what they want.

The Gilbert Whopper.

Nice to see our level of discourse is quickly reduced to name-calling. Not sure what I said in my post to merit this, so I'll just attribute your vitriol to lingering feelings of anger following Bama's loss.

I'm assuming the guys were upperclassmen that have taken the lead for the section. I'd rather have a well-organized, passionate section even with a few borrowed chants (like We Believe) than a student section that has no impact on the game and seems little more into it than the upper bowl.

They had control of the PA system about 45 minutes before tip-off and explained to all the students how things were going to go. Excellent primer for freshmen, but probably good for the seniors as well. If the free throw disparity between the first and second half keeps up at half that rate, they can do whatever they want.

They went through it with the crowd/students at Marquette Madness. I like the concept, but it might be better if they did the same thing but with a different chant specific to MU.

That's true. I should clarify my comment above. I think the chant at the beginning is far better than nothing as it is. It's fun for the crowd and brings an energy to start the game. I'm all for doing it, I just think a chant specific to MU using the same format would be cool. I just don't have any suggestions yet on what that would be, but I'm sure the Fanatic leaders could come up with something good.

I believe I gave quite a bit of detail in my first post.  And you posting an idiotic post and calling it "discourse" is quite funny.  How is this even a discussion when the actual player who this is supposedly affecting says he enjoys it?

Which is a perfectly fine idea. But for now, this is a hell of an improvement over last year. Considering all the criticism in recent years, I'd think this organization and these attempts at livening things up would be seen as a positive. It's a vast improvement, MU-specific chants would be an even bigger improvement, but walk before you run.

Heck... if you want your student section to imitate someone, you can't do any better that Utah St.


(Aside) During the "we believe" chant, I turned to my wife and said "Utah State."  She nodded and asked "do you think Wild Bill is next?"  In looking at some of the luchadores in the front row, I thought there might be a chance.... although we have many qualified candidates as far as physique & willingness go, the problem is you can't get centered well enough underneath the hoop at the BC to be conspicuous.

If ever there was a reason to building a basketball-only arena on MU's campus...

Wild Bill is hilarious.
Too bad when they did the little history clip on him, he wasn't in his get up - just a plain blue shirt.

I'm sure there are plenty of candidates in the Milwaukee/SW Wisconsin area who can put WB to shame.

I agree completely that is a pathetic chant. Leave it for the Mo's in Utah. They probably disapprove of my drinkin', carousin', cursin', womanizin', and generally debauched lifestyle so let me look down on their lame ass chant. I like getting a knobber while swilling ale and watching Monday Night Football. They like green jello. To each their own.

Not from WI. Nor Chicago. I actually lived in Park City for awhile, an oasis of normalcy in a sea of LDS lunacy. Being too close to the fire made me uncomfortable so I moved to another mountain town. Lots of Mo's here, too, but it is a lifestyle and not a career.

As a full participant and one of the leaders of the auto-matic chant, I think it's awesome you old hags have a problem with it. We care nothing more than getting MU wins at the BC. With that being said, we will do anything to make the players comfortable while they are out there on the court. I'm sure 95% of you fanatic dumbasses don't know, but DG is not like any other player. He loves the attention we give him on the free-throw line. After his 18 of 20 makes in big east play, look to see who he points up to after the swish. He likes are chants so much we made shirts for it. (If you haven't seen the shirts keep your eyes peeled at the BC, the students wearing them will be the rowdiest fans in the whole gym.) Gardner approved of the shirts to the T-shirt company and had asked me about 20 times when they were getting delivered because he was so anxious. A couple of us are good boys with Davante, I think we would know if he wanted us to stop. So all you no-life losers who care more about this chant than the actual struggles of the team, go back to mommy's basement or your boyfriends bedroom, and go unnatural carnal knowledge yourself! Cause we are here to stay baby.
Sincerely,
Mr. Automatic

With that being said, we will do anything to make the players comfortable while they are out there on the court. I'm sure 95% of you fanatic dumbasses don't know, but DG is not like any other player.

You obviously have not spent much time here, nor did you take the time at all to see how most people on this board feel.  Most of us felt when that chant started, that it was ridiculous and stupid as it would seem distracting.  To go even further, while Davante is a great FT shooter, he is far from "automatic".

However, once learning that Davante actually enjoyed the chant and it helped him concentrate on his FT attempts, most of us felt that if he likes it, than we like it.

Sincerely,

No-life losing fanatic dumbasses

Also, to the guy who called out Mr. Automatic for talking about a 2 month old thread, sorry man, we don't live and die muscoop.com. We've been busy getting drunk in the best city in America with 18-22 year old girls. I love Marquette nation, I was born a Warrior. I would extend an invite to any of you real fans to our pregame tailgates. We "AUTOMATIC" fans live and breathe MU bball. So what if we wake up at 8am for a 1pm game and get a little too drunk. I guarantee you we love our squad just as much, actually more than those goodie-goodies in the front row. Where were they in Louisville last year? AUTOMATIC was there, LOUD AND MF'ing proud. And we'll be there again, if we're so lucky.

Two things...I'm sure Davante had something to do with 7/8.

You don't live and die this site yet you're posting at 2 am about your rock and roll lifestyle? You do realize 2 am is a time you should be LIVING that lifestyle and not trying to show up a bunch of old guys on a website, right?

I have no problem at all with the automatic chant. I did find it funny that the guy in front of me thought it was "O-VER-RAY-TED" but he was also making jokes every time Fuquan Edwin touched the ball because his name is "Fuquan".

Anyway...worry less about MUScoop and more about the 18-22 year old girls that must all be rejecting you if you're on this site at 2 am.

I'd consider myself a real fan that had better things to do other than get to a game hour(s) before tip off to get lower level seats.

Unlikely that anyone was "bullied" by bros when they were younger, because it's a relatively recent development.  I graduated from MU in 2002, and there was a fairly small bro population.  The bro-movement has grown exponentially in the last 5 years, and it's obviously alive and well at MU too.

You seem to be in the dark on why people aren't fans of bros, so I'll give it a shot...

It's pretty common knowledge that bros are some of the most annoying and narcissistic personalities in society.  They are often entitled and privileged... they seem to always "accidentally" get in fights and arguments with strangers of all ages and for the most trivial reasons.  These "kids" are always in a shocked state of "whats wrong, bro?" when people don't want to engage with them or when people aren't impressed with them.  They love attention (which we're all giving them now), and are pretty much the male equivalent of Hollywood's spoiled ditsy blonde stereotype.  Every bro doesn't suck, but it's the vast majority of them.  The ones in this thread epitomize the bad side of bros.

I can't believe I did a "When I was young..." about bros.

In my day, the student section had assigned seats like a regular season ticket (or half-season ticket, I should say).  You could pregame until 15 minutes before the scheduled start and still make the tipoff because your seat didn't depend upon when you made it to the arena.

Ditto.  The problem with that is that your seats depended on your class, so you had a bunch of lame ass graduate and law students by the floor.  OTOH, I don't recall the student section going into the upper deck.  I know I never sat up there for a game.  It is much better now than in my day, but the basketball is much better as well.

In my day, student seats were not assigned. However, you could still pregame until 15 minutes before tip and get great seats because no one wanted to go watch a Marquette-Tulane barnburner. Then Dwyane Wade burst onto the scene my senior year and we could only pregame until 30 minutes before tip. It was rough.

In the pre-BC days there were so few seats in the student section that a student season ticket covered only half the home games.  You could request either the Blue plan or the Gold plan.  No one went into the upper deck because the student section didn't go up that far.

Central Mall camping out ended around 1978 or 1979.  That's when MU went from the full season tix for students to the 1/2 Blue/Gold format.  When I got to campus in '79, the upperclassman were lamenting the change.  It may have happened to some extent my Frosh year, I simply don't recall and certainly few participated.  I had a sense that Fr.

In defense of Bryce I am a recovering Broseph myself. Me and my fellow teddy brosevelts were almost ALWAYS late for tipoff and in the upper deck,  always due to excessive drinking of brotein shakes and brotato chips at Renee Brow before the game. Would it have been nice to to see that opening video once in a while (didn't even know they did that until I got season tickets as an alumni), sure. Do I have regrets? No. We had a blast. As a 27 year old, do I now enjoy getting there early, being a stats geek, and put more energy into the team than to drinking beforehand? Yes.

Be easy on him. He's probably 19ish. We've all been there. He's actually more engaged in the game than I was...leading a chant that one of our players likes. And he's right about one thing. The students who get there 2 hours before the game to rush the doors as they opened to get the best seats in a 1/3 empty student section were...well...a little strange in my opinion.

Last Camp Out was 1976. First tents popped up 15 days before the sale date. There was a lotta PBR but prolly even more ganja. Folks walkin past from the old union to LaLumiere would stop by the tent for a toke or two. Made for a more interesting Spanish lit class.

Camp Out was for all home games. Seats were assigned but limited, hence the camp out. First tent got first dibs on seats. Priority was given to your tent number, regardless of class (ie Fr, Soph, Jr, Sr.) Pretty fair system. Rule was that you had to have 50% of your tent present at all times. There was a stink when tents began having a coed population. The VP of Student Affairs, Dr Scott, was a real dinosaur and he said that coed tents was unacceptable (which made it impossible for males and females to have tix together!) Remember that coed visits in the dorms still required the door to be open and all feet on the floor! Not sure this was actually enforced but it was in the books. And female visitors had to be out at midnight. Hard to believe but that was life at MU in the 70s.

Back in the day, when games were at the Mecca, a bunch of us at the Lighthouse had a good part of the first row of the upper deck, right at midcourt.  There was a beer stand immediately out the tunnel leading to the concourse.  Between pre-game parties at our house, drinking on the walk down to the Mecca and the beer at the game, we never had the need or the desire to get to the game too early.

Last Camp Out was 1976. First tents popped up 15 days before the sale date. There was a lotta PBR but prolly even more ganja. Folks walkin past from the old union to LaLumiere would stop by the tent for a toke or two. Made for a more interesting Spanish lit class.

Thanks raw.  I guess a few of those upperclassmen hung around a few extra years.  Can you imagine today??

I knew Jim Scott reasonably well, even when I was a student.  Bit of a micro-manager for sure but no doubt the 'camp out thing' had to change.  

Funny.... I know professors today who were students back then.  Bet there are some well buried stories that can't be told in the lecture halls.

Scott sported a flat top high and tight and those black framed birth control glasses which were vestiges from his days in the Marine Corps. He still had that look and demeanor. He was beside himself that tents were coed and that there was heavy ganja use. He prowled the area at night trying to catch fornicators and smokers. In fact, when he ended the camp out in 1977 he cited the illicit behaviors that the Camp Out facilitated. I think he was the guy who cancelled a planned showing of Last Tango In Paris at the Varsity. That one caught national media attention. Different world. How I miss those Camp Outs and the illicit behaviors they facilitated.

Was Steph the hot brunette? Quade had a whole tribe but one of his daughters was ridiculous. If she is the one who transferred to Loyola LA then she is a righteous friend. We worked together in the admissions office one summer after she transferred to Loyola. She was back in Beer Town for the summer and staying at her old room mates place on 15th instead of with dad in South Milwaukee. I am from Topanga so we spent a lot of time rappin about LA (Cali really put the zap on her brain and she was hooked. Said she wanted to stay there for the summer by Quent made her come back. Man she was smokin. I can see why the old boy wanted her home with a chastity belt.)

We used to do the applicant tours, stuff envelopes, and all of that menial crap.  We would sneak over to Joan of Arc to spark doobs during lunch. Almost every night after work we hit the Lanche. It was a righteous summer. Steph had some of us out of towners over to her parents pad a couple Sundays. Her family did the big sit down dinner thing so it was a cool palate cleanser from our animal existence. One of the dudes in the Admissions office was Dave Sinker. He made a snide comment of some sort at the dinner table which made Quentin pretty indignant. Steph and I were pretty stoned and we thought it all amusing. I guess Quent told her to never bring that "lout" to his home again. At the end of the summer we had an aloha party for Steph at the Lanche that was catered by Wales on Wells. I remember the locals were all over the food like flies on crap.

Anyhow, I had forgotten all about Steph Quade and that summer. Man did I want a taste of her but she was really like one of the dudes only she had a great smile and really slick laugh. What a great person.

Sinker told Quade at the dinner table that he looked like a cross between Alan Funt and Martin Balsam only not as funny. Got the old dude twisted in a major way.

Simmons! That's it! What was the daughter's name who transferred from MU to Loyola LA? Man, was she a babeola. I couldn't keep my eyes off her ass for months. Man, I never saw the sky that summer with that thing shakin around in front of me. We went through a couple pounds of Lumbo Gold and Matanuska that summer, man. She had us over to her house for Sunday dinner a couple times, too. I think they lived down in South Milwaukee near a big ass park on the lake. They had like 12 kids. Her old man was a real quiet, serious kinda dude. He didn't say much during dinner as the horde of sonic youth was grabbing the mike all the time. He was the dude who Sinker kept asking if he was related to Martin Balsam or Alan Funt. Finally old Ed asks Sinker if he is always so irreverent on 'the Sabbath.' Funny thing is that he was real gracious to us and made a point to ask about each of us like where we were from what we were studying and where we wanted to go in life. I remember we were pretty laced up on some Thai sticks and his smoking hot daughter rambled on and on about how she got lost on Supelveda Blvd. Her dad finally said that she sounded like she was still lost on Supelveda. One thing I remember is that they had a house keeper or something who looked like Hazel the Maid.

I mixed up the Quade visit. That whole summer is still like a blur, man. Quade's daughter also worked at Admissions and she had us over too. I think the Quade and Simmons girls felt sorry for us cause we lived like filthy animals. We drank 15 cent Red White and Blues at the Lanche and smoked like bags of weed. Dinner was Real Chili, that Gyro place or we grilled brats on this hand me down Weber. Sinker was from Utica NY and during dinner he kept calling it Uterus. I had the good sense to wear a clean Hawaiian shirt but Sinker shows up in a t shirt. The old boy didn't like that one bit and he made someone get him a collared shirt. I think that is what set Sinker off that day cause he went out of his way to be well like Sinker. Quade finally tore into Sinker after the 5th time of calling Utica Uterus. I was really stoked on some righteous blond Lebanese that afternoon so the whole thing was surreal. I seem to recall they lived near the lake too. The dude was a sour guy but his family and hearth scene was pretty cool. They were a nice group of people. It was like they really dug each other like the Waltons or something.

How many other teams have a chant designated for one player, especially when that player loves the chant. He said it makes him feel more confident at the line, and when you can hear a chant like that on TV and see the outcome of his free throws, we got to be doing something right.

I approve of it because Davante asked the student section to do it in a video shown at the beginning of the season and it doesn't affect his free throws (yet). He is still going strong from the line, so I don't see anything really wrong with it besides personal preference and aesthetic feelings. Plus I kind of like being different from most colleges by doing it.

Now the "I believe" chant is something we copied from a smaller college (Utah State) and since they have an amazing student section is sounds great. The first time we did it last year against G-Town, it sounded great and is on youtube but since then not so much. Our student section just doesn't have rhythm a lot of times *cough cough* thunderclap mis-haps / saying chants in a round.

(I skipped pretty much all of the prior posts so I may be saying things already mentioned or that aren't relevant anymore, oh well)

We've been busy getting drunk in the best city in America with 18-22 year old girls. I love Marquette nation, I was born a Warrior. I would extend an invite to any of you real fans to our pregame tailgates. We "AUTOMATIC" fans live and breathe MU bball. So what if we wake up at 8am for a 1pm game and get a little too drunk. I guarantee you we love our squad just as much, actually more than those goodie-goodies in the front row. Where were they in Louisville last year? AUTOMATIC was there, LOUD AND MF'ing proud. And we'll be there again, if we're so lucky.
Sincerely,
Section 431

People keep asking me if I'm back. Yeah, I am thinking I'm back!

FYI

Those 18-22 year old girls somehow stayed the same age.

Idk who or why but people in 428 (young alumni coors light corner) were chanting automatic when Sandy went to the line at the end Saturday. He coolly sank both but I found it odd. Liked it when Davante was here because he's one of my all time favorite Warriors.
