What's wrong with you folks?

Postby 78pony » Fri Dec 05, 2014 10:24 pm

I am not a Cowboys fan. I'm not necessarily a Romo fan. Could care less either way.

What I am is smart enough, unlike some of you meatheads, not to "boo" a guy of high visibility and the stature of a local celeb.

WTF? I am glad that he chose our game to attend over the Mavs vs PHX.

A lot better than last year, but you could still hear boos mixed in with cheers. I don't get it.

About 60/40 positive to my ear, but yes, no doubt vociferous boo's.

yea I agree, we shouldn't be booing celebrities. Moody needs to be the place to be in Dallas.

Romo chose to come to the SMU game tonight when there was a Mavs game as well.

Anyone can get a ticket to a mavs game, not everyone can get on the floor at Moody.

Thanks, OKC. If you are building, you don't disparage those who - right or wrong - carry local clout.. You welcome and graciously offer your thanks for being here.

There were some boos.

I can't stand the guy, but I sure clapped when they showed him.

At least he had the decency to turn his cap the right way before his scoreboard appearance!

Agreed. He's there cheering for your school. Whether you like him or not its pretty cool to see him stand up and high five his buddy when Nic Moore hits a clutch shot. He even thru up the pony ears a few times.

He's a good guy, whether you like Cowboys or not (not). He and Jason Garrett have the wherewithal to attend whatever event(s) they wish. I have heard from others that Romo loves our bball, and I have personally talked to Jason and he absolutely loves SMU hoops! He actually loves pretty much everything SMU. He attends HPUMC and he and wifey Would be the definitive SMU prototype.

I agree your an idiot if you boo a celebrity supporting our program, but I thought it was more like 80/20

So you would cheer if the Beibs showed up to a game? I'm not sure why they announce celebrities at the games. All it does is bring mostly unwanted attention to the celeb that's trying to watch the game.

The Cowboys are actually good this year! Booing him is stupid. I'm glad he likes coming to our games.

Stallion, I will say split the difference. I was sitting in "others" seats tonight and those around were 60/40, but maybe overall it was 80/20. Either way, all I could do to keep from clubbing a couple folks around me who were "booing." Disappointing.
