I don't get it.

Hi everyone--

Thank you so much for the great laughs this season. I hope we have more fun to come as the team moves into the playoffs.

The Grossman song: The backup goalie for 'Mouth had two holes in his right sock behind his leg pad. Being me, I noticed it. The song, a lá Elysiah, was this:

There's a HOLE in your sock, Joe Grossman, Joe Grossman!
There's a hole in your sock I see!!! (x2)

A note about the cheers and section A and whatnot:

As a sophomore, I was removed from the building during the Michigan State game because some schmuck threw a crumpled sandwich/newspaper at the ejected Trojan. As the cops and ushers huddled to decide what to do about it, I made eye contact with one - the universal sign of guilt, I suppose. I was taken to the rink manager's office by the police where I was berated until my friends - thank God - threatened the actual perp until he went and turned himself in to save me.

The next week, I met with the athletic department and had a long conversation about the mishap. I was assured that "these things happen" and that I wasn't on any sort of list.

However, that said, I've always been a little nervous about getting kicked out at games, and at times, it's made my Lynah experience paranoid...Everytime things get a little crazy, I'm always concerned that I'm being watched closely because of something I did not do 2.5 years ago.

As a result, I've made an extra effort this year to get over myself and be as loud as I can. BUT here's the catch (and advice to any fans from now on) You can be as loud as you want, but as long as you're not vulgar, there's very little reason to throw you out. If you've overheard us in A, you'll notice that we never cuss, we never shout racist / sexist / bawdy things...We try to be ironic and complicated...I think it gets in the goalie's head better that way!

Again, thank you to everyone in section A who's put up with some of my failed jokes. My personal favorite this year was the whole Jo(h)n sequence with the goons from that Canadian university, and "Hey ___! Don't worry! It's probably just a cold sore!"

It's been a pleasure cheering with all of you.

LET'S GO REEEEED!!!!!!!!!!

LaJollaRed and co. get it.  Finally, someone in the student sections gets it.

Thank you for restoring my faith in the student sections.

(Except that you guys will soon be graduating.  Crap.)

Thanks for explaining it!  I kinda figured the tune of the song, but was curious if he did actually have a hole in his sock, or if that was just a reference to him being a great big sieve, or some other random thing that you're doing such a great job of picking up on.

Yup, LaJollaRed is the man.  Its been a pleasure going to games with you at home and on the road!

Oh, man, I'm so glad you got the hat back. I was feeling real guilty that I caused you to lose it.

Thankfully, that girl came out and laid out all the hats on the bench.

I'll certainly be wearing a hat during the whole Dartmouth series... and you can bet that we'll be using our brand new sign-making abilities to call out Mr. Grossman & Co.

Proper respect ("props"?) to Section A this year.

Kristoph, you better not be that punk in section B that almost got destroyed last night. You are probably friends with that loser Doug 08(nice name idiot) who thinks hes so freaking great..

[Moran]

No, I am unrelation to any of those people.

By the way, I-will-dunk-on-you, I do not appreciate your "empty" threads. You are a member of the Lynah's Faithful? Nope. I suggest you take your rhetorical skills elsewhere, perhaps to the Nights of the Roundtable message board!

Du meintest auch "Knights"; ist aber schon gut. ;-)

Don't let the troll get to you, though.  If you ignore them, they do eventually go away.
