"USA Ain't Nothin' To Fuck With" is officially the coolest sports chant I have ever heard of. Holy shit. By ten lengths.

There is now no longer any reason for another sport chant to ever be invented. The form is perfected by crossing a fuck*ng pro-wrestling U-S-A chant with the goddamned Wu Tang Clan.

The book is now closed on sports chants.

Oh, I thought y'all were saying vulvazuela.  Is that some kind of sexualization of Venezuela?

Does make good points, but it fails to understand that just noise does not make good atmosphere. Noise as a I wittered on about earlier must have some relevance to the game and the fans. Also, the vuvuzela is not some integral part of South African football culture as some imply. It first started to be mass produced in the early noughties, and up until then dancing and chanting was the vogue for football fans.

Clearly though it is fun using them, or people wouldn't.

Also most of the arguments in the one above revolve somewhat around 'cultural imperialists', 'forcing our Western values upon them'. Can't be having with that, just an argument for someone looking for things that aren't there as they don't understand the actual issue.

ANYWAY

Fair play New Zealand. The first last minute dramatic equaliser of the World Cup -ticks list-

Yeah, I tend to agree with your earlier post that the continuous nature of the sound just makes it kind of annoying.  It would be one thing to blast it when something interesting happens, but from the sound of things, there are people who just blow their horns non-stop throughout the match.  How can you actually, you know, watch while you're doing that?

That's it in one really. I'd have no problem with them if they were contextual.

Ivory Coast looking pretty good. Fake Ronaldo is such a reprehensible sod

Generally, although the fans are everywhere.  Plenty of them out of the city in upstate NY, where the ratio of obese people on scooters rises one millionfold.

Oh hell yes. If the Lakers lose tomorrow night I'm calling in sick the next day. AND getting into a fight.

Fuck, I'm giving up.

You are describing where I am right now.

...accurately, of course.
