Apparently the default words censored by phorum are "****", "****", "************", "*******", and "**************".

I'm sure this pleases John Ashcroft no end.

[CowbellGuy]

Sorry. My bad. Didn't realize the censoring was on. Any new posts should be fine.

If anything, I'd say the "sieve" chant has "devolved", IMO.  I think it's too fast, almost like the fans are rushing (why rush?, I thought the first time I heard it that way).

And I agree with whoever said "mob mentality".  Because of the time it takes for sound to travel, and the "insertion" of those seated in Section C (which once upon a time was also for students), the number of "sieve"s chanted always seemed to vary all over the rink.  In any case, as a fan, I always thought it was cool the way the "sieves" sort of faded out slowly, followed by the gradual build up of the "IAYF"s.

Fuck, shit, cock, ass, titties, boner, bitch, muff, pussy, cunt, butthole, Barbra Streisand!

Edit: yep, it works. :-D

When I started following Cornell Hockey ('96-'97 season), there was no consensus on when to stop the "sieve" and begin the "it's all your fault."  It's evident if you listen to track 64 on the "Live at Lynah" CD, where the transition is somewhat awkward.

More recently, I've noticed that the crowd transitions more seemlessly.

I kinda disagree.  I think it sounds more imposing when it's in time like it's been lately.

But Chips is still a band nerd.  :-P

Thanks, Cartman.   ::laugh::

I don't have a story to compare.  But though it certainly sounds like you may have inspired the cheer, you really can't take credit for making it a tag-on to "C-ya!" - that was done by those that were "laughing at the crazy woman."  Maybe my friend was in that group.

Nice touch, bandies.  I guess the Notre Dame stuff on Sunday was part of a long tradition.   The band kind of missed the mark in Ann Arbor, though.  In Michigan, only the MSU folks take that rivalry seriously.  (Woof!)  The Ohio State stuff runs a lot deeper.  I spent a few years in Ann Arbor after leaving Cornell and am a fan of both these teams.  (Yost is about as close to Lynah in atmosphere as you can get, maybe even louder, because it's bigger.)  I will be cheering for both of them to make it to the finals.  Put these two teams and their fans together, and the place will rock.  No divided loyalties here if it happens.  GO RED!  Now we need to ask Jeff Lehman where he stands on this one. :-D

Miscellaneous cheer/Michigan references:

Having helped organize the prp band trip out to the '91 series at Michigan and then ending up at Michigan for grad school in '97 I've got a bit more detail on the history.  

Personally, I blame Doug Onsi '90 for having lots of the cheers stolen over by UM.  Doug was finishing his first year of law school there during that series and I'm sure he made a concerted effort during that year and afterwards to teach bring the CU cheers to the Yosties.

Yes, we did play the MSU fight song during the third game of the series.  In fact we spent an entire day trying to find the music to the damn thing.  And we heard the loudest boos I've ever heard when we broke into it with about 10 minutes left in the game down by several goals.  In retrospect OSU's fight song would've been more fun, but we got plenty of reaction.  We made sure to high-tail it out of there after playing the MSU fight song again in the closing minutes.....

And finally, on the ahhh see ya cheer:  By spring 1999, the cheer at yost goes something like this if memory serves (I never could remember it exactly) .  While it was ahhh, see ya in 1991, the 99 version was ahhhh, see ya, asshole, geek, nerd, fag, douuuuuuchebag (elongated), followed by a rather emphatic *bitch* as the finale.  (again, i could have the order and words mixed up but you get the idea.)  Interestingly enough, the volume dimmed as each word went by - only the hardcore had the whole thing down!

Wasn't there a "Wildfong bastard" in there somewhere?

Hey, you remember things however you want to.  What I remember is that I started it in '91-92, when I was still in Section B and the "C-ya" cheer was still brand-new; AFAIR there hadn't been a single yell of "asshole" yet.

By the way, who are you?  You're a brand-new poster and have no personal info on your profile.  I like to know who loves me.  :-D
