It's fricking awesome, but god dammit why does Mizzou have to do it to "We will rock you" being piped into the stadium? Such a yankee-twist on a sick burn

Sorry, but that makes absolutely no sense. We should stop doing a cheer of ours? We're Gators, we Chomp. It's our cheer. Like you have your Roll Tide.

So, yeah, we get prickly when people mock us with it. I'm pretty sure we aren't the only fanbase that views having their own cheer turned back on them as being disrespectful.

But whatever. Not much one can do about it when your team fricking sucks, so you get to live through all the bullshite again. *sigh*

Wow. I've never seen someone be such a bitch about winning a game. Act like you've been there before.

Do you have access to the UF board? If you do, not for much longer.

Was the comment directed at you? No. This kid talked shite leading up to the game all week, with threads that I can bump if you'd like. He was clearly way off base, and then disappears during the game yesterday and all thereafter.

ETA: Act like you even have the defense to kick me off the Florida board anyways.

A) reel is not a kid. I believe he's retired.
B) I have no idea what you are trying to say about defense and kicking you off the gator board. If you have access you won't for very much longer.

You sound like Mack Brown claiming the "horns down" is disrespectful. Pissing on someone's grave, or walking on the grass at a War memorial with signs that say don't walk on the grass is disrespectful. Someone doing a gator chomp in a mocking way definitely isn't meant to show reverence, but it isn't disrespectful.

Telling me to shut the frick up on a message board is super bad arse ftr.

He doesn't have access to the gator board so it's all good.

If you don't understand the team boards are for civility then I don't know what to tell you.

He was posting to a particular poster who trolled us all week. Do you expect us to kiss the rings of a team we demolished to maintain board nicety? No thanks. Tell reel to keep his fingers off the keys if you don't want responses like that.

Because we all want access to the Florida boards. Alot to discuss over there.

Screw y'all. You don't want to be disrespected, don't pee down your legs-especially after all the disrespect you guys sent our way the last year plus.

The intent is not to show respect. The intent is to mock. Mocking is disrespectful. I don't give a damn if they do it or not though regardless of intent. Just pointing out my opinion on the logic of saying it's not disrespectful.

I would not have posted that it was disrespectful though. It's different with students. They aren't expected to behave in a respectful manner and they had fun doing it. It's all good. I have no problem with it.

One thing about mocking the Gator chop:

It always comes back to get you. Don't think our players will forget that next year.

I mean no disrespect. I didn't like expansion. I don't like it now. I'll get used to it. I didn't like it the first time either. I didn't think Arky was a good fit then then and I still think of them more Big12 ish. I've gotten used to them.

I've already complimented your team for the win.

I would argue that disrespect very likely depends on who is the giver and who is the receiver. Eyes of the beholder, as such.

Then again, this is coming from someone who merely cheers for her own team rather than putting down or mocking other ones. Just the way I was raised. So, I very much hate being chomped at by opposing fans, or having to hear the "It Sucks To Be A Florida Gator/It's Great To Be A Gator Hater" chant when making the Walk of Shame out of the stadium, etc. Because I don't do that sort of thing to the opposing fans. I don't do that because I know how much it sucks to have it done to you.

I have always been of the opinion to cheer for your own team rather than diss the other one. But again, I admit to being raised in what appears to be a much different way from others when it comes to attending football games. My family was very old school and respectful of others.
