I've always enjoyed interacting with all fanbases. All have a few jerks, but most are just fans and its all fun if you don't get your feelings wrapped up in another fan's pride in his own team.

HOWEVER, I do think the "we just beat the hell out of you" thing is pretty classless. Its over soon enough, so I don't hold grudges over it.

This.

I mean, it's one thing to have shitty fans, everyone has them. But to have your school officially approve of a song that belittles the other team is completely ridiculous. Most schools, such as LSU, will order their band to stop playing songs that are disrespectful to other schools (i.e. - the "you suck" chant and the disbanding of the TD song here). But Bama allows an official school organization to play a song that contains "we just beat the hell out of you." Really? You'd think with 12 national championships (now probably 13) the school organizations would be able to act like they've been there.
