I would probably get banned if I explained everything I think about this...because I'd go to preaching...A preacher I is.:wink:
However, while I preach against drinking, cursing, sex outside of marriage, etc... I understand everyone has to decide for themselves how they will live...it's your right as an American and a person given free moral agency by God. In my work, I'm an "informer" not an "enforcer." I deal in information and persuasion.
That said, I think it's crude that anyone would dismiss the public chanting of arguably the crudest of all words just because the ones doing it:
1. Are college kids
2. Have been drinking
3. Could be doing much worse things
4. There are more serious problems than this
5. It's a word kids hear/learn by the time they are _______...etc...etc...etc...
The difference here, IMO, is what you decide to do, say, or support is your right/choice as long as it doesn't negatively affect/harm others. Because this is a public setting shouldn't there be some common decency and respect shown to those who don't believe in such language?
Besides that, the whole Dixie Land Delight stadium rendition is just unclassy, rather than classy as we Tidefans like to see ourselves.
