Cant really think of anything that shows less class than this. Most athletes work his butts off and are more competitive than 98% of people in the stands. Anyone that boos players should have no business being a fan. Anyone that sends death threats needs to get his head examined.

If you think booing has anything to do with class you need your head examined.

What if you play "take the money and run" & "Son of a preacher man" while booing?... gotta be worse right?

Just a coincidence IMO. Good songs!

Classless to the tenth degree. I loved the fact Cam cited that as a motivation after the game.

Classic hits!
Why would anyone want to keep those songs from being played?

I'm sorry but you probably can't understand a concept of something profane like class.

I don't boo, but I also don't thing booing is really anything other than the alternative to cheering. Most players probably enjoy hearing it as much as they do cheers.
I would bet that Cam even laughed a little bit when the students threw monopoly money when he took the field for warmups.
Ray Lewis said that when the fans stop booing you, it's time to retire. People aren't phased by booing.
Taking further than jokes and booing inside the stadium is too far though. Once the game is over, these are just people.

Booing is completely different than death threats. If I paid for my ticket, I'm going to boo the hell out of Gus' play calling, Barrett Trotter, our d, Clint Moseley, and OMAC running out of bounds.

I'm a Philly sports fan, so I don't know what the hell you are talking about.

I fully understand. What I don't understand is the obsession with southerners(sports fans in particular) using class, or lack thereof, as an insult or attempt to modify behavior. I'm southern and I've lived in GA or SC my entire life. As soon as someone declares another person has no class because of behavior X and its related to sporting events, pretty safe to say you can cross the accuser off the list as a rational human being, at least in that instance.
I don't think you know what profane means.

He's an Alabama fan, clearly he knows nothing of class.

Completely agree.
I have yet to see a single fanbase that I would describe as having class. Individual fans? Yes. A fanbase as a whole? No way.

Dumb. Any good athlete worth a damn gets pumped when opposing teams boo them.
Now booing your own team. That's classless

Sorry this is the point I was trying to make in reference to Arizona fans booing their own QB in Kolb.

How? Tickets are expensive. I expect effort in football and not in dancing.

If you were talking about college sports, I would understand (but respectfully disagree) with you. But pro sports fans SHOULD boo if they are getting a sub-par product. The fans are customers and if they aren't happy they shouldn't just sit there and be like "oh gee wiz... these guys are trying hard, I'll give them a pass".
If you don't boo, you don't care about throwing your money away, plain and simple.

Disagree. Booing is your right as a fan to display your feelings towards the other team, and, players on your own team that are not getting it done.
