If they'd just change it to "rip his bloody head off", I wouldn't have a problem with it.

OH NO!

MY KIDS ARE GOING TO HEAR THE WORD "****."

THEY WILL BE FOREVER CHANGED!

WHAT A TRAVESTY!

I've jumped teenagers and college students for using foul language in that part of the stadium.

What do you mean by "jumped."

You physically attacked them?

God, sticks and stones you moron.

"Jumped", meaning I reminded them that they were sitting in the family zone, there were small children around, and they should watch their language.

I don't expect you to comprehend the roles and responsibilities of being a father, but by all means, feel free to correct me.

That's pretty strong. It's a reasonable request.

Personally, if I were a student, I'd probably join in.

I'd also like to think that if someone (head coach or fellow fan) asked me not to, for obvious reasons... I'd stop. I mean, you're all on the same team.. in a manner of speaking.

Yep.

When I hear the cheer, I yell, "Rip his bloody head off" so my kids can't discern what the idiots in the student section are really yelling.

You want to call me a pussy for protecting my kids innocence, I dare you to do it to my face.

I'm sorry I see no reason for that word to be censored any more than puppies. A 7 year old can look up the word in the dictionary. Let's not pretend that kids will always be innocent and by protecting them from this chant on saturdays - that they probably can't make out unless they're right next to it or know what they're saying before - is going to keep them innocent for their whole lifetime.

Yes, it's the utmost form of pussyification of America. Censorship is nothing more than pussyification. And what are you going to do if I said that to your face? You hit me? What? Talk about setting an example....

Err, wait.... Mizzou sucks!

You confuse censorship with etiquette and good taste. Just because a word exists doesn't mean it should be used. I doubt you would scream "Tackle that n*****!" because you think it sounds funny.

Break out your dictionary and look up the words "maturity" and "civility". Set a higher standard for yourself. Be a little more creative. You don't have to use gutter language to make a point. KU is known for a recognizable, original cheer. I'd rather not be known for the other one.

Yep, keep pushing your bullshit values on the rest of America. Maybe someday the word "****" will be completely eradicated.

This is a reeruned argument. Values being pushed onto society is how we ended up with laws. You know, like murder, burglary, assault, etc. are all crimes.

You can't just go do whatever you want. It doesn't work that way. Maybe some day when you grow up, you will get that.

Then complain to the university to seat the family section elsewhere. They won't get the chant stopped. At least not how they're currently going about it. I, for one, will be there yelling it for the sole fact of everyone's panties up in a bunch about it. It's a goddamn word. And what's more is it's a movie quote.

Then don't complain if they choose to escort you out of the stadium.
