    the broadcast showed a LSU hottie once, but showed the same "hefty" UF chick at least 3 times; why??? Is that the results of our admissions?

    Exactly, I saw her too and was wondering. I think she was a scholastic zombie taking a break from physics lab.

    Still think people making posts of this type should be required to post pictures of themselves.

    Yup, I hate it and believe you should simply scream your head off as it is the only way we, as fans, can try and help the defense at all. That goes for all defensive downs, but especially third.

    However, considering a GATOR FAN literally looked at me and yelled "Shut up!" at me for being 2.5 seconds earlier in beginning a THIRD DOWN YELL than the rest of our section last night - and it wasn't the first time this has happened in the handful of games I am blessed to attend yearly - I am beginning to question what it is my fellow fans actually do want.

    Unfortunately we have a couple of idiots in our fanbase. You are correct, continue to yell.

    Quite an absurd generalization. 50K students and u think they all have 0 personalities, etc etc. C'mon, I know a couple of current students that hardly fit that description.

    Timely post. I just found out the mushrooms I picked outside were poisonous.

    Now I don't have to worry about them. Thanks a lot!!!

    Your fellow fans are zombies that have brains that are wired different than the average human being. They are dressed up trying to appear "normal" but they would prefer to be reading a text book on Organic Chemistry. So hang in there and I assure you what your doing is not weird.

    It will die. Go bananas go go bananas died. The wave died. Cup fights died. Shaking the keys died. Home field advantage died. It all dies eventually.

    I’m worried that the term has evolved over time from an older term, “money shot”, and that’s not a good root for the new usage; both related to the need for peak performance…but what do I know? Now get off my lawn and let me be aggravated with our youth. I agree that it’s counter productive to rub fingers together if it isn’t accompanied with lots of noise generated some other way. Clapping is effective when old vocal chords get tired or sore but can’t be done when finger rubbing.

    Good "money" says that third down will be followed by first down. Anybody that does this double booger flicking motion is sticking their head in the sand. We have nothing good to anticipate on third down right now, and, we haven't for 3 or 4 years. Let it die. Just yell your heads off to try to disrupt. The money sign is ridiculous.

    No. It's the result of putting fat people in commercials.

    Probably right just substitute political science home"work" or journalism for physics lab, that's mostly male international students.

    Sorry, this chafes my chaps, as I have a low tolerance for stupid!!! When fans rub their fingers together I want to say, "You might as well believe in voodoo to think you're fingers do anything!"

    I don't care one way or another, but if I'm there in the stadium I have my hands making a cone shape around my mouth and I am screaming my lungs out... every time the opposing team is on offense.
