I think one of the funnier things at recent Cornell-Harvard games is that whenever Kevin Du is taking a faceoff in front of a CU section of fans, there's always a good number of them who yell "Duuuuuuuuuuuu!"  It's probably less out of respect and more out of the North American fans' primal instinct and genetic urges to just shout the name of any athlete with an "ooooo" sound in their name.  I'll call it "The Lou effect."

Name another opponent ever where the Faithful cheered his name without the word "sucks" being placed somewhere in close proximity.

I was saying Boo-urns.[/quote]

Well, it's similar in sound to "Boooooo" so I think some people just assume we're booing and join in. It's also easier to pronounce than some other opponents' names.

Off of the top of my head, Corey Potter and half of Dartmouth's current team

Excellent.  I'd like to add Brad Zancanaro, but I don't think "Angry Midget" counts as his name.

I was going for the most famous example from my generation, Matt Weder.  :-D

Please, it's swallow. As in, "You Swallow Bellow(')s Devine Johnson, Potter"
"Mark Mazzoleni looks like a guy whose dog just died out there..."

Unfortunately Bellows left for the OHL so there is one less word in the sentence.

You forgot a couple name/words.  "You Offers Swallow Bellow Devine Glass Johnson."

Yeah, good story there from CSTV.

On the 'bright' side, his father's name *is* Lou Du.
