You are absolutely free to wear a hat or walk on the grass or burn a flag. There are also a lot of people who are free to tell you that you are an a-hole for not respecting a memorial to thousands of men that died in war and the home of 7 CMH's. Freedom doesn't mean you get to be a jerk and other folks have to be quiet about it.

As I said though, 99% of the folks wearing a hat or walking on the grass simply have no clue. I certainly wouldn't know what is or what is not considered respectful if I walked around Gainesville. A lot of Ags need to chill out and not be jerks about it, simply ask people respectfully to honor the memorial.

I also don't approve of the booing but I understood it. It was very frustrating watching the "cramping" but the biggest problem was it worked in terms of helping to take our offense out of rhythm. Something A&M needs to overcome and certainly isn't why we lost though. UF just needs to coach their players to fake it better if they don't want to be booed. I don't know how much was on TV but at the stadium it was clear when it was faking.

It's all good.
Florida took care of business on the field.
And Gator fans were top-notch visitors.

Sure it does. Because you can't universally regulate "jerkdom."

I never said they had to be quiet about it.

This is the issue. Lots of dumb Aggies use the fallen soldiers as a means to be dicks to people.
