Clarification from Nighman

In response to the vague email I got from athletics recently, which someone copied into the NY Times thread, I asked Gene Nighman for clarification of what is allowed and what is not. I got this reply:
"Profanities such as A-hole and F'em up are NOT permitted. Although
not exactly nice, it is okay to say someone sucks and the sieve and bad
goalie chants are also okay.
Gene"
Seems pretty cut and dry to me. I for one am going to take a copy of this to the next game for defence against over eagar ushers.

Given that Cambridge is in Massachusetts, how do you think he'd take to calling them "Massholes"?

I can't speak to whether it'll get you kicked out, but as a proud Masshole, I don't know of a single one of us who isn't damn proud of that term. You may as well cheer "you're awesome!"

Good to know.
After calling RIT "a bunch of D-III goons" during pregame warmups, a member of the athletics staff (not an usher) pulled me aside and asked me to please be "less vicious" due to the new rules about sportsmanship. I tried to get more specifics out of her, and failed. This helps.

Too bad this doesn't apply to the band...one person got reprimanded by a senior athletics administrator for wearing a Hahvahd Sucks shirt. We haven't been able to say sucks for a good two years now.

Noel's take on Fish

From today's Sun:
Full article: [www.cornellsun.com]
Andy sure has an imagination...
“Sportsmanship is a lost art in many respects and I’m not ready to give it up,” Noel said. “I’m somebody that respects tradition a lot, but I don’t respect tradition that is insulting to our visitors.”
Noel affirmed that come this Friday night, the administration will continue its policy of removing students caught throwing fish from Lynah.
Noel has witnessed Harvard players being hit in the head with fish and have fish parts slip inside their sweaters on more than one occasion.

“I think our administration has done a good job, because at one point in time it was out of control,” Schafer said. “But Cornell students won’t be denied and if they want to do it they’re going to find some creative way of doing it. As long as they don’t cost us a penalty, that’s the biggest thing.”
Sounds like an "ok" to me

So I sent an email to good ol' Gene asking about whether a "Harvard Sucks" sign would acceptable and the chants, including the 'masshole' idea. His respose was.
[Q] Any signs that are derogatory will not be allowed, I would consider them to be more unsportsmanlike than shouting the same thing. Any chant that is obscene or could be easily mistaken as an obscene chant would also not be allowed. The traditional chant after a penalty is "See you loser," and although it is also derogatory, there are no immediate plans to ban the chant.
Gene[/Q]
Since when is loser a derogatory term?! Freakin' PC police.

I think he's referring to the first part. He's gunning for "See you loser! You [something]." I doubt he knows, or cares, whether the [something] is "goon" or "lose," as long as we don't say "asshole."
Also, I really wish he'd grow some freaking balls. I can understand banning actual profanities, especially if it's televised, but is he really setting the bar at "derogatory" words? Wtf? Are we supposed to keep any cheer directed at the opposing team positive or neutral? Is "Hey goalie, you may or may not be doing an adequate job!" really the spiciest he'd like us to get? What a tool.

my question is, if someone happens to shout out: Gene Nighman! three times and the crowd happens to respond SUCKS! would that induvidual person come under any scrutiny? After all they would just be shouting out the man's name, they would have no control over what the crowd's responce may be.

Is it remotely possible that the lunacy coming from Noel is actually not so much his fault as it is part of his job, part of some more ridiculous doctrine handed down from much higher up? It certainly would suck if his job depended on being an asshole, then being called for it by hundreds of fans, right on national TV.
Of course, I don't know the man, so maybe he's just PC-whipped...

There are many, many things in this world that are done for the sake of covering your own ass, and his seems like one of those times. If Ted Donato slips on some fish residue and decides to sue the department, the defense will hinge around "oh, didn't you see the emails we sent out, and how we ejected Bob and Jill who looked like they were about to make a throwing motion with their arm while saying 'socks' in the direction of Kyle Richter? What else do you want us to do?". Our legal system sponsors such theater as a way out.

I think not, but hey, you're the know-it-all lawyer so feel free to continue to interpret my words any way you like.
If you insist. I will even endeavour to be polite about it.
For probably 99% of readers, when you follow a statement "Y" with a question of the form "So that makes X okay?" you are understood to be using "that" to refer to "Y," the statement that preceeded it and the context in which "Y" arose. We were in the middle of conversation about whether Donato's hypothetical lawsuit against Cornell might have merit, and I had just brought up a point that would probably be a strong defense for Cornell in that hypothetical lawsuit. Since you responded directly to that point "Y" with a question of the form "So that makes X okay?" any rational reader would have to presume that your question arose from my point and the context in which I made it.
The answer is that one has nothing to do with the other. If you'd asked "So that makes it more likely Cornell would be able to defend such a lawsuit successfully?" then the answer would have been "Yes." Your question "So that makes your ... behavior ok?" just doesn't apply. There's an enormous difference between what might serve as a successful defense in a court of law and what makes behavior "ok" in a moral sense or in terms of etiquette.
Which brings me to another point. Your phrasing "gross display of unsportsmanship behavior" presumes that the display is gross, that the behavior is - well, "unsportsmanlike" (that would be the adjective form of the word, I believe) in the first place. It's the worst kind of loaded, conclusory question, because it presupposes the answer. It would be as if I asked, say, a St. Lawrence alum posting on this board, "So your moronically ignorant and deranged reply made sense?" Well, no, it couldn't possibly - I've already stated in the question that it was moronically ignorant and deranged, so no answer that poster gives will suffice to make us believe otherwise. Most of the time, I don't even think a question like that deserves an answer.
All that having been said, if what you actually wanted to know was whether I think the fish-tossing at the Hahvahd game is unsportsmanlike, you could have simply asked, but you didn't. You could also have asked me whether I think it's less unsportsmanlike because Donato knew it was coming, but you didn't, though you clearly think you did. Based on the way any rational human being would read the conversation in sequence, you asked if the fact that Ted Donato would likely lose a lawsuit against Cornell because he knew in advance of the potentially dangerous condition "makes your gross display of unsportsmanship behavior ok."
The answer - once again - is that it has nothing to do with it.
The answer to the question you think you originally asked, since you have now gone to the trouble of asking it (and whatever you may think, I do appreciate the clarification), is: No, I don't think Donato's foreknowledge of the fish has any bearing whatsoever on whether the fish is unsportsmanlike or, if it is unsportsmanlike, how unsportsmanlike it is.
As for last year, I let that go a long time ago. I tried at the time to make you understand why I thought your double-standard was ridiculous, but you didn't get it, so I gave up. I fail to see why you continue to bring it up, or what it has to do with this discussion. If it makes you feel better to think that I was offended because you didn't grace me with your presence, please feel free to continue thinking that. I know better, and I'm completely at peace with my opinion on the matter.
My sincerest and genuine wishes for Clarkson's success against St. Cloud State this weekend.

Total vs. 'Big 4' AHA 5-25-2 (.188) 2-22-2 (.115) CCHA 26-13-5 (.648) 10-13-4 (.444) CHA 7-19-1 (.278) 4-16-1 (.214) ECACHL 23-12-5 (.638) 9- 9-3 (.500) HEA 17-16-4 (.514) 13-15-4 (.469) WCHA 20-13-5 (.592) 16-11-5 (.578)
We're currently second by either measure.

Left unsaid was that, as a matter of first principles, I don't (and Beeeej probably doesn't) consider the fish tossing unsportsmanlike.Beeeej
The answer to the question you think you originally asked, since you have now gone to the trouble of asking it (and whatever you may think, I do appreciate the clarification), is: No, I don't think Donato's foreknowledge of the fish has any bearing whatsoever on whether the fish is unsportsmanlike or, if it is unsportsmanlike, how unsportsmanlike it is.
Trying to hit the players, on the other hand... is borderline.

There almost has to be some give in this statement. Aiming for Pelle is probably a noble pursuit.
