Questionable behavior

the Bardguy · 07-27-2006, 09:17 AM

Hey folks, I'm just curious as to how we are expected to show our disapproval for the current situation? I would have thought that it would have been okay to chant "FIRE ELLINGER" after another non-win. It's not like we're exactly charging up the charts...RSL is stagnating and stinking up the place at number 12, and face it, we're not going anywhere.

So, we could boycot the team and not purchase anything or we could stop coming to the games, or we could voice our discontent in a unified voice. All I know is Trey Fitz-Gerald, Sr. Dir. of Marketing told our group to "Shut the F___ Up" and I have to feel that that's not totally appropriate.

If a customer/client of mine was disappointed in the way I did their audit or completed their tax return and told me to my face, I would be fired if I told them to "Shut the F___ Up."

Comments?

Trey is normally a nice guy, but this is just another example of the FO being too emotionally tied to Coach E. The fans will and can chant whatever they want, and the FO has no place telling you guys to "Shut the F___ up"

What happened?

Well of course like normal we blow the game. So we start chanting "Fire Ellinger." Well then Trey Fitzgerald decides to walk up to our section and tell us to "shut the f___ up."

Was there anything else that led up to that outside the Fire Ellinger chant?

I am surprised that Trey allowed his emotions to rule his reason.

RSL should hire Ante Cop as Director of Fan Relations.

He loves Utah fans!

That behaivor is Inexcusable especially coming from his position.

The marketing director is telling loyal fans to shut the F____ up?

If you think about it, it is pretty funny.

Good job at marketing your product.

Yeah, 9 wins in 1.6 seasons.

We are FC The Producers.

Leo Bloom and Max Bialystock are going to be our new central defenders.

Instead of "All we are saying is give us a goal", we should sing "Springtime for Hitler"

Robb, I suspect the only reason you guys drew an F-bomb from Trey is because he knows you guys. If a group of "normal" (i.e. non-RCB, and I mean that in the nicest way possible) fans were chanting Fire Ellinger, Trey wouldn't go there. Try getting the fans around you involved in your Fire Ellinger cheer and I think the most you'll get from Trey is a dirty look while he sits on his hands.

Time to kick it up a notch. I had been bringing yellow cards all this year and last and distributing them in E37 and E38. I ran out a few games ago and haven't had the time to restock. I'm thinking I'll bring pick slips on Saturday.

Also instead of incessantly chanting "Hospital" we should chant "Jockstrap". Anyone got used jocks they'd be willing to sacrifice to the Field Turf God?

Or, how about this: RCB wears jockstraps on the outside of their clothing, Clockwork Orange style!
