Was anyone at ND last week aware of these "jeer cards" in their student section?

[BaltimoreMC]

Those "jeer cards" pretty sum up ND students/grads - privilidged, obnoxious a-holes that look down on anything "not good enough" for ND.  I'm soooooo happy that their beloved football program is a joke and their b-ball season is falling apart.  Couldn't happen to a nicer bunch of people.   

[Knight Commission]

Great reporting.

I think what we have here is a lack of institutional control. I'd like to see the Big East take some action here against ND.

Check this out.  http://www.nd.edu/~legion/jeer.html  Heh heh heh.

[GOMU1104]

Anyone care to share what else was written about our players?  I'm obviously do not condone it, I am just curious as to what was written about Fulce, Cubi, Wes, and Lazar.

Didnt they write some pretty nasty stuff about Wade and his family?

[BaltimoreMC]

Their web site is exhibit "A" in my thesis that ND is a collection of privilidged, obnoxious a-holes

Oh god. That is AWFUL.

They crossed the line.

They got called out.

No whining or opinion needed in this case (as they claim).

If they are so proud of what was on the "Jeer Card", just print the card in the NY Times and let all of the ND alumni be proud... or ashamed.

[Tom Crean's Tanning Bed]

Am I reading this page right, or am I just confused?

All the jeer cards placed on this website were edited by a person in the administration before being allowed to be distributed to the students.

So, you mean to tell us, the racial slurs were approved by an administrator?

Way to throw your own athletic department under the bus.

forward it to a reporter at the NYT, I'm sure they'd be happy to run that story.

Maybe our good friend Andrew Wagner would like to write about it.  I wonder what he would think of them if he thought MU students were "knuckleheads."

Unfortunately, due to the fact that students at a certain university are whiny babies who can't take a joke and apparently have nothing better to do with their time than worry about what kids at other schools are saying amongst themselves, this page is no longer available at this time. We would like for it to be known that any material previously pulled from this page is not actually what was distributed at the basketball games. All the jeer cards placed on this website were edited by a person in the administration before being allowed to be distributed to the students.

Go Irish.

-Just wanted to make sure we have a copy, can't imagine that staying up very long.

Interesting that the school administrator in the Tribune piece (Brown) suggested that this was the brainchild of a rogue group of students. I smell a cover up?

[Knight Commission]

Just want to preserve what the legion posted on their website, because I suspect it may change within a couple hours......

In other words, we're in deep crap for using racial slurs and since we through the athletic department under the bus we had to take this down as soon as possible.

[TallTitan34]

Please tell me someone saved there jeer sheets before they took them down.

Thanks to the wonders of google, there's still a few 'jeer cards' hanging around...

Here are some examples of prior games' jeer cards:

Really not particularly clever. You would think geniuses like Domers could come up with some better material than mocking a guy because his sister is named Jewel.

Here is the one from last year.  Found it with a simple google search.  

www.nd.edu/~legion/jeer/0708/Marquette.doc

Nothing too inflamatory here, except for the dig at Ooze's fan.  My guess is that it might have gotten away from the administration this year.

I went to the MU/ND game in South Bend during the final 4 year.  They were handing out sheets of paper with negative information about our players.   I seem to recall that first and foremost was DWade fathering a child.  But there was more.    I recall nothing racial then.   Idiots making a bad name for an entire institution.

Brian Bowsher does a great job of going through the cheer sheets distributed to Marquette students.

We've had tons of Devendorf ideas (EDIT: which may have crossed the line ) shot down by Bowsher.

That's what Notre Dame needs.  Someone to bring order to chaos.

As long as every girl comes dressed with a "black eye" who cares what you're yelling...

I HATE Devendorf.

This is my favorite.

[StillAWarrior]

I found a couple more old ones:

Colgate (07-08):  http://www.nd.edu/~legion/jeer/0809/Briar%20Cliff.doc
Briar Cliff (08-09):  http://www.nd.edu/~legion/jeer/0809/Briar%20Cliff.doc

They give out a phone number, some AIM names, and have some questionable content.

Obviously, their URL's aren't too tough to decipher.  The link for this year's Marquette sheet was "broken."

Incidentally, when you access them, the download as word documents so it's very easy to save a copy.

Never fear all - MUScoop CSI service has created a backup of their entire website for the authorities to investigate (before any more evidence is destroyed).  You might enjoy browsing starting at their "jeer" directory:

Note: I haven't even looked through everything.
