re: Reveille article about student section, "Neck"

what the students chanted on Tiger Rag and Oh We O were really tame and a total overreaction by those that got them banned

I'm sure band members are really distraught at hearing the word dick

Band members are probably distraught at the thought of the viewing audience (live and TV, of-age and under-age) hearing the word dick at a football game. Additionally, they are probably distraught at being lumped in with what appears to be classless buffoons in the student section. This type of gratuitously vulgar behavior is the last refuge for unimaginative thought. It shows poorly on the students, the team and the university. It is no great surprise that the band, along with the vast majority of fans over 20, would want to distance themselves from this idiocy?
