Although I don't think it is their right. If you listen to the beginning the announcer says something like (I am paraphrasing here) "no derogatory language will be permitted". I could insert "booing" here. But then again, that is said right after the "Dead" chant so I suppose that would be hypocritical. (Not that I mind the Dead chant, but I always chuckle because the timing is very ironic).

I also think that the armchair coaches should stay the hell home. Sometimes the fans will specifically point out a player and say to Miller, for example, "hey Miller, you shouldn't be playing, Sneizk should be playing". I sit low enough to know that the players can hear this.

If we had a band, maybe the mood would be more festive instead of antagonistic. Or maybe they should start a new promotion: First 5,000 fans 40 and older get free valium.
