It’s football...
get over it.

Is that what Belichick said yesterday? :)
Imagine if the Midshipmen had called them “nappy-headed hos”?
New Jersey is Sicilian for “Fallujah”.
I've decided that was far less about race, and much more the fact that they're women.
Men would have shrugged it off - not cried like they did - and then the media would have only half stuck up for them. Don Imus would still have his job.
I think I’m going to yous that one.

The Navy thing will be a fond memory once the Womens basketball team hits an opponents court this season. They will be brutalized unmercifully.
Rutgers is an inconsequential school from a sh!tty "blue" state, and 90% of the people in the U.S. probably don't even know that it is New Jersey's state university.
An open letter? Wow, that's really telling them. Gutless and feckless
How about informing the low rent, low class people in the student body that attends the game that will be be tossed out on their asses if they act so idiotic again.
That will get the media attention, real leadership in academia
As a 12 year veteran of the USN and having passed through JOISY a few times this story comes as no surprise.
The state is filled with rude liberal yankees.
I do have laugh, though, thinking back 40 years to when I was in high school, and the most risque cheer we'd yell from the stands was,
Rah Rah Ree
Kick him in the knee,
Rah Rah Rass,
Kick him in the other knee! ;o)
Gimme an R— rude;
Gimme a U— unintellegent;
Gimme a T— trashy;
Gimme a G— gross;
Gimme an e— egregious;
Gimme an R— rottencrotched;
Gimme an S— sodomites,
What’ve you got?
Rutgers.
They're going to have to fight hard to get lower than Duke.
omg, how old are you?
I sit two sections away from the visitor’s section at Rutgers Stadium. There was only one instance where we heard a chant “f* ** y** navy” rise from a group of about 100 drunken student fans in the end zone bleachers. The surrounding Rutgers fans all drowned them out with boos until they shut up (which took about 10 seconds)
I don’t doubt that these same drunken idiots were yelling a lot of incredibly stupid and vulgar things individually that couldn’t be heard in the rest of the stadium.
Unfortunately, it is this author’s attempt to make it sound like it was a widespread issue instead of something about .01% of the crowd was part of makes me believe he was hoping to make his career by creating a story.
I always liked Steve Martin’s cheers:
“Die, you gravy sucking pigs!”
“Try to score a touchdown, you scumbags!”
I remember years ago sitting at a Harvard-Yale game and hearing the kids chant: "You can beat us on the field but you can't beat us off." I stopped and said to myself whhhaaa?
I can't believe I just said that.
