    Your thoughts? I think they should keep the chants that has some cursing in them. These are college students not middle schoolers. They should be able to take it. The only thing they should crack down is when the fans yell profanity towards the opposing team's individual players IMO.

    lol true. But I think they have to at least make some kind of a research before giving out statements because then people will always say well "how does he know" and get all defensive. Even though it's obvious. People are stoopede.

    What about the whole "Texas fans make us proud, watch your language" campaign?

    most of the fun at football games is viciously insulting opposing fans that somehow end up in your student section

    I shout "FU*K" every time Graham Harrell throws an INT (which unfortunately has been pretty regular over the past 2 games).

    Without obsenities, how would one express anger? I don't know how I could function.

    My mom never cussed when I was growing up, no matter how mad she got. I walked into the kitchen one day and saw her burn her entire hand on the stove. She yelled out, "FIDDLESTICKS!!!!". I said, aghast in horror, "Mother! I hope that's not the same mouth you use to suck Dad's ****!". *



















    * stolen from some comedian i can't remember. He was on that short-lived MTV series Austin Stories.

    To me, it depends on who you're around. If you're in the student section, have at it. I don't scream "make 'em eat ****" anymore because there are kids around us many times.

    Major's reading this and laughing about the '98 Nebraska game. Hey, I was only 22!!! :D
