Fans hollering vulgarities. Might not happen if big brass cared about basketbal

[star seed 7]

Those of you with children that have low expectations of those children make me fear that one day one of your future hoodlums will be sharing space with my daughters.

what does that have to do with this?

That chant is dumb and I would be disappointed in my child if he or she thought he or she was cool for chanting it.

I doubt many of them think they're "cool" by chanting it.  I have no problem with eff ku being chanted at a ksu/ku game.. but for other games yeah.. seems lil brothery to do it when we aren't playing them

Yes, exactly

what does that have to do with this?

All of the stupid excuse making for it being done by people who would never do it, at any age. Gen Xers seem to think that millennials aren't capable of being held to a high standard of behavior. It's embarrassing and people who are offended by it, want it to stop, or have to apologize for it shouldn't have to apologize for it.

But.

I don't place all of the blame at the feet of the students, I didn't get the impression watching the game that even half of them were doing it. The ones doing the chanting of course are responsible for their behavior, but I don't understand that if there's one or even two or three thousand people chanting that, what the eff are the other 10,000 people doing? If everyone not chanting booed the chant when it started it would stop. I don't understand the grand majority of people at the games that want no part of it but who allow it to happen.

come on

Come on what? You have kids? Last weekend I took my kid to the library, this library has several play areas for kids. My daughter was perfectly content building a structure all by herself. This couple comes in with three boys and they are just reaping destruction on the entire area, rough ridin' with every kid in there. The staff and other parents were left to contain these kids, while their parents just laughed the day away at their kids "creative expression." I let it go until one of those hoodlums started knocking my daughter's structure down, I had to discipline someone else's child in front of them; it was pathetic. I'd like to tell you that this was a unique experience but unfortunately something similar plays out every time we're in public with several kids. Parenting has absolutely changed, it's quite unfortunate.

this is in reference to some college kids chanting eff ku at a basketball game?

We should be yelling vulgarities at oscar.

I've posted this before, but have any of you been to a Wisconsin football game?

EVERY GAME, half the student section yells "EAT crap," and then the other half yells "eff YOU," and they do it over and over again.  This has gone on for decades. 

It's very loud and clearly audible from every part of the stadium and surrounding streets.

But, no one at Wisconsin bats an eye.  They just keep dominating academically, and for the most part, athletically. 

Kansans are rough ridin' ridiculous.

I have never heard this on air, I have seen it on YouTube. I'm pretty sure they do it between the first and second quarters. They also don't chant it a million times a game.

Do a Google search of eat crap eff you and you will see every single article on the first page is negative, there is literally not a single one advocating for the chant. This was the first article.

I guess it's too much to ask to hold our students to a higher standard than a student section that produced President Obama in a noose.

I suppose I am saying that a school a bagillion times better than KSU in every conceivable way, seems to have similar incidents and they don't lose their minds over it like Kansas State does.

I just gave you evidence that they in fact do. Google eff ku now google eat crap eff you and explain to me the difference.

[Pete]

And, a rough ridin' letter to the student paper editor, from a student, who was apparently some sort of dork who didn't know the chant had been around a lot longer than 2003, is not anywhere near the level of absurd reaction at KSU. 

A God damn code of conduct, and an open letter from the President...that's more significant, wouldn't you say?

Evidence?!? Some rough ridin' engineering student's letter? LOL

If you're going to continue with this stupid talking point, Google better.

Also if you think they "do everything better than us," I would think you'd want at least be able to clear their historically low bar for fan behavior. Stop rough ridin' acting like the students can't get into the game, have fun, and be intimidating without this amazingly base and stunningly uncreative chant.

[Pete]

LOL.  Well, I am glad you kept after it on the google front yourself, after that ridiculous student letter to the editor post!  Or, did you have this latest one already and keep this doozy squirreled away just in case?!? 

Were you sitting there contemplating whether to lead with the engineering student letter or the Barry Alvarez letter?

At any rate, while Barry's cordially toned letter from several years ago was nice, it obviously did not work.  I wonder, has the Wisconsin community been up in arms since?  My friends in Wisconsin who attend the games have assured me that this is not the case, but perhaps my non-Google evidence is merely anecdotal and unworthy of serious consideration.

Base?  Uncreative?  Perhaps.  However, each student section has easily accomplished their goal through exceptionally simple tactics...Occam's Razor, I guess.

Keep bitching about it, and keep giving them what they want.

[Pete]

I shouldn't be commenting on this anyway.  It's not my place to say anything about it.  I apologize.

I don't watch or support KSU basketball, so I need to mind my own business.

Really, the best thing about the chant, at least when done directly at ku during ku games, is the simplicity of it.

[catastrophe]

It's a stupid chant. And Wisconsin's is also a stupid chant.
