So you are denying you violently threw one of those
compressed airhorns down your isle towards the scoreboard?

Yeah. I am.

If you're paying more attention to me than the play on the field, you need a new hobby.

And I thought my brother was the only one having a melt down over this. He was screaming to snap the ball as we lined up in the swinging gate and he finally just snapped. He was real popular in our section. The strain has been really tough on him this year since normally he declares that he is out by the 2nd or 3rd game of the season. Gotta love the commitment he is showing this year. Maybe we need a special section for fans like MM1965 and my brother so they can all yell at once and not appear to be some totally insane loner :lol:

Oh, I still hold "no expectations". However, for the price of admission, I'm entitled to behave in whatever manner I wish, as long as it does not physically harm anyone. I knew SMU would find a way to lose the game, especially when Tulane tied the game at the half and again when the game went to OT.

I am sure there are other limitations as well, such as the amount of clothing necessary, the type of language that an be used, etc.

Not a bad idea. I'll take a seat on the 50-yd. line, just below the skyboxes...that way I can irritate the hell out of Stallion again. He looked so lonesome up there by himself last Saturday night.

Obviously, there are different limitations depending upon the school. :lol:

God knows there are plenty of seats in that section...

Normally I would apologize for disturbing the peace in our section, but I just can't take it anymore. The only way I can stay for an entire game is the let some of the frustration out. F the swinging gate.

Was Mike Cavan's daughter there?

Yeah. I am.
Well you either kicked it or threw it. My source said he saw it land. You are either lying or were so angry you don't remember.

First there was no play on the field when you had your meltdown.
Play had stopped for the challenge. It was hard "not to pay attention" to your meltdown. For Christ's sake people heard it in other sections. The last thing we need is you getting arrested or having a heat attack in the stands or scaring familes and/or little children away from our games. Stallion documented your other tantrum this season.

You AND your 'source' both need a new hobby.

About the time MM express his concern to everyone about snapping the ball before the replay, something went kerplunk. It might have been the pressbox throwing new batteries to the ref for his Secret Sam Walkie-Talkie set.

And YOU need to check your expectations at the door in order to avoid future expectation-driven outbursts.

My expectations were that SMU would still not be successful. I was not wrong.
