Title: Student Section — All White Sox fans?
Post by: The Lens on January 28, 2018, 06:11:31 PM
What’s with the F U Nova chant?

Are we 10?  I mean we’re chanting F U to Nova?  Arguably one of the classiest teams in the nation. They ain’t Cincinnati. 

I don’t care if kids pass out, puke or fall from the 400s.  Drink as much as you want, be loud, be nuts.  But save that crap for teams that deserve it.

You’re not White Sox fans.  At least I hope you’re not.

I'm happy they showed, but "F--- you ______" or "F--- the _______" is so lame. Get creative.

They probably tried starting it a dozen times, too. Embarrassing.

Couldn’t agree more.  Zero class.  Zero creativity.  Against a team and coach that show more class than any other we face.  Too bad, as otherwise the students and entire crowd were fantastic.

There’s a reason why the admins shut down the Hey Song at the last timeout, and it’s a shame they cannot do anything about the F you chants.  I expect better from my alma mater, especially because of the religious background of the school.

Then again, when the kids behind me yelled “unnatural carnal knowledge Stevenson” every time Brunson touched the ball, I gave them a hearty thumbs up.

I'm glad that someone else brought it up, so I didn't have to be "that guy".  The FU chant was so lame and embarrassing.  Is that attributable to having students who normally don't attend games, because that's doesn't generally happen.  But agreed, total lack of creativity\class by the student section.

I'd like to think yes.

But to be honest, if I had been a normal student, I would probably have joined in when I was 18-19 years old.  Since I was in the band, we had it emphasized strongly that we represented the school and we were not allowed to participate in any of the F you chants or turning our backs during starting lineups.

Did the students dump beer on Jay?   No?    How about pennies?    Did they throw pennies at opposing foul shooters?  Pikers.     Kids chant dumb things.    3 decades ago, when we could generate enough energy to rise above the bad basketball that was 84-88, we gravitated toward the organic fertilizer chant.   
  Yes, as a middle aged parent of an impressionable 11 year old, I would rather not hear that on TV.    I use it as a teaching moment.   But it is rank hypocrisy to condemn what they are doing when you chanted very bad things once upon a time.

NO WE DON'T!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Some of us think Cardinal fans are the best fans in baseball. Smart, refined and honor the character of our opponents (unless they are the Cubs, in which case we rather get a little smug!). We understand the nuances of the game, respect it and cheer pleasantly for America's best baseball team.

Cardinal fans expect nothing other than to win.

Agree with Lens, and  with those who rightly point out that we did dumb stuff back in the day too. 

Sort of like my son doing dumb stuff just like I used to.  I get it, but I don't endorse it. 

I let him know I did it too and that it was dumb then and is dumb now.

I encourage the students to be more clever than course.

"We are looking forward to hosting another big crowd tonight at the game against Butler and can’t wait for the Blue & Gold faithful to display its support in a manner that will make all individuals associated with the university proud during Saturday’s game."

My college had hockey as our most popular sport. (for a Florida school and a club team it was weird).

Place was packed every game in a super small rink. 1 dollar beers and a packed house made for a fun environment.

Our chants of the ref f---s his mom and calling every opposing goalie a goat f----ker for literally the entire game makes the mu crowd look for tame. Oh btdubs this was the most ''prestigious'' aerospace engineering school in the us. Didn't make us look any worse. Just kids having a good time.

I've been to hundreds of White Sox games and can't ever recall hearing that chant there, certainly not chronically.  Heard it plenty at MU games.  Can't get past the opening kickoff at a Bear game without hearing it.  I'm sure it happens at Sox games, but I honestly can't remember it.

I do recall a guy at a Sox game chanting "F--- the Orioles" --- at a Sox-Rangers game.  Don't know what the deal was, but he was removed from the game.

This isn't about college kids having fun.  You could puke from the 400s and have it land on me and I'd be cool.  But just saying F You to a school like Nova?  That's showing no imagination or creativity.  I expect more out of our students.   Chanting F You to Nova tells me you're at your first game of the season.

I would vote for #1 here. The chant isn't that big of a deal. It's just words. But I do think I have some insight as to when this chant started against Nova. If I recall correctly, the first time I heard (and participated, no shame in that) the chant for Nova games was 2014, Buzz's last game against Nova. I think students chose Nova to replace ND for these chants because Nova and MU played relatively close in years prior.

Also, that 2014 game was the game where we wore the all pink jerseys and Arcidiacono hit a bunch of free throws in OT to seal the deal.

2. It's a fine chant for some schools, but Marquette is a classy program, and we are better than this.

FTFY

If I had to choose between a student section that steps over the lines of good taste and one that just sits there, give me the obnoxious ones.

This isn't about college kids having fun.  You could puke from the 400s and have it land on me and I'd be cool.  But just saying F You to a school like Nova?  That's showing no imagination or creativity.  I expect more out of our students.   Chanting F You to Nova tells me you're at your first game of the season. 
So we should feel superior to some schools, but not if they are Jesuit? Got it.

I used to give my Badger football friends crap by asking them if their kids sat in Eat Sh*t section or the F*ck You section.  I guess I can't get high and mighty anymore.

I'm confused.  Actually, you're confused.  Nova isn't Jesuit.

Why should you have to choose? I mean, I might prefer a shyte sandwich on whole wheat to one on rye, but I wouldn't order either unless forced.

What’s with the F U Nova chant?

Are we 10?  I mean we’re chanting F U to Nova?  Arguably one of the classiest teams in the nation. They ain’t Cincinnati. 

I don’t care if kids pass out, puke or fall from the 400s.  Drink as much as you want, be loud, be nuts.  But save that crap for teams that deserve it.

You’re not White Sox fans.  At least I hope you’re not.

Lens, you're a snowflake. Get over the bad language, they're college kids at a big weekend game. Be glad they showed up. Also, horrible reference to the White Sox. Minus 10 for all around bad post.

So true.  The wealthy burbs.

Wow I almost never post on here but it's funny hearing all the geezers complain about the "kids these days". Give me a break. I don't care when you graduated I guarantee that you were saying/doing things that the older generation deemed "unclassy" or whatever you guys are complaining about. If you were born after the 1990 you don't give a fuk about swearing. Times change, culture changes, but the older generation always complains and thinks they're superior.

Those class act Villanova students are currently (audibly on TV) chanting f--k you and a--hole to angel Delgado. It's almost like the students are acting like 18 year old kids.  ::)

I’ve been pretty clear, students can do whatever the duck they want.  Just show some intelligence & creativity in their cheers.  I mean after all, all we hear about is their 36 ACTs and how much more competitive of a school MU is now.  Show it.

I am a medium old geezer and I agree with your sentiment.  We used to be crass and bad actors as students. 

“I’m an arsehole, I’m an arsehole, I’m An asrehole through and through, but i’d rather be an arsehole than to go to Notre Dame”

That was only one of the cheers we did.  Throwing beer on Digger, etc, etc

I'm an arsehole, I'm an arsehole, I'm an arsehole JUST THE SAME, but I'd rather be an arsehole than to go to NOTRE DAME.

Digger sux but ND (insert plural name of bird species here).

Same with the "Sucks" chant during introductions. Not only does it lack class, it lacks any creative thought. You know, like comparing poor behavior to all White Sox fans...........

That has been going on for at least a decade, cheers like that are part of what makes college atmosphere so fun and rowdy. Now that being said I wish that we'd realize who were playing because in two instances we've had former players comes back as coaches for opposing teams and students still shouted "sucks".
