VIRGINIA: NOT GAY AND PROUD

“Wahoo Wah” always sounded like some sort of odd sexual position to me anyway.

That cavalier is kind of like Errol Flynn, who left no buckle un-swashed. And who could be more hetero than Errol Flynn?

Also, USC’s fight song doesn’t mention anyone else. Self-involved, us?

Well yeah but down here in the Bible belt justifiable murder of one’s opponent or your whore of a wife is so much more acceptable than someone daring to go outside the box (or munch box) and (gasp!) go against God’s plan.

Why the self-loathing, Sarah? Get your heart in Dixie, or get the hell out, sweetheart.

And before you leave Sarah, iron my shirt and make me a sandwich.

No self-loathing here. Also, Georgia Tech’s little ditty doesn’t seem to rhyme or have any meter or rhythm … it makes me long for “I’m a ramblin’ wreck…” etc. At least our (UGA’s) admonishment of Tech sounds like a song.

Strangers ain’t come DOWN from rocky top,
RECKON they never will.

/lyrics nerd

Sarah,

I always thought it was God’s plan for every woman who is not sexing me to sex each other for my entertainment. Quite frankly, most of you are falling well short of grace in His eyes. Repent!

Just give ‘em a hotty toddy. They’ll loosen up.

No comment on fight songs, other than to say that Project Runway’s new cast could have attended UVA without irony.

Sarah has the biggest bug in her ass of any woman I have ever interacted with ,and I am a lawyer, thus have attended law school.

Seriously, your righteous indignation over the Confederate battle flag, fight songs, and God knows what else, I am guessing you oppose men wearing ties because they represent some phallic supremacy symbol in your mind needs to take a break.

It is a satirical site, people laugh and insult their rivals on here.

You were that girl at UGa Law who answered all the questions in Con Law or other unimportant classes like Family Law, right?

Actually, Family Law is important because I want to make sure my fiance gets none of my loot when I leave her for a woman half her age in about 25 years.

Hey, the above was a JOKE! A J-O-K-E.

Stop taking everything so seriously, and get that bug removed from your backside.

Sincerely,

If I had son, I’d tell you what he’d do
He’d yell, “to hell with Georgia” like his daddy used to do

PS: Get over yourself.

Sarah, please stay as long as you like. Mars needs women. Plus, your encouragement of female-specific homosexuality seems to excite the men around here, who are at least fifty-one percent supportive of gay rights: fifty percent for woman on woman action, and one percent for pirate-on-pirate sex, because, well, pirates are cool and can do whatever they want because they’re pirates.

Boomer Sooner

Boomer Sooner

Boomer Sooner!!!!!!

I’m Sooner born
& Sooner bred
& when I die….
I’ll be Sooner dead.

Is there some backstory here I’m missing, because Sarah’s posts don’t seem to merit the nastiness it’s received…

No one had a problem in the last thread with a Buckeye fan calling everyone who lived outside of the Midwest “pinko-commies,” but you’ll all jump in Sarah’s grill? ’Sup with that?

Hey to my verb-tense agreement there! Thing of beauty!

Only 50% in favor of woman-on-woman action? As low as that?

As for pirate sex, there’s no point in being opposed: if they want to mount the old poop-deck or plunge into the foc’sle, who’s going to stop them?

Ironically, Al Groh kind of reminds me of the disciplinarian neighbor in American Beauty.

DC,

O meant that the lesbian sex is good, but the other kind is not so good.

As for Sarah, go check out a game day thread. She literally gets her panties in a bunch because people fly Confederate battle flags on Gameday telecasts and other such nonsense, when we all know it is a non-issue.

The Indigo Girls message board is that way…

@ 6

That’s one of at least half a dozen fight songs Georgia Tech has, all of which involve either drinking, pissing on U[sic]GA, or both.

Wow. My apologies to all … my sarcasm doesn’t translate as well here as it does on all those evil man-hating feminist sites I usually troll during class. Plus that bug up my ass is startin’ to itch …

And Orson, I’ll make doubly sure not to direct my vitriol to pirates anytime soon. Lord knows I don’t want to ensure their wrath.

people fly Confederate battle flags on Gameday telecasts and other such nonsense,

Not really such a good omen considering who lost that fracas. USA! USA! USA!

Sarah,

I for one find your progressive views refreshing in this reactionary little corner of the internet.

/sucking up to the only vagina in the house

So if UVA isn’t gay then why were all the Maryland fans screaming it at the top of their lungs?

Nupe,

Mary-land calling someone gay seems a little pot-and-kettley.

And Coop, I merely responded to Orson’s post pointing out that the GA fans were flying a Confederate flag … it’s low class and I stick by that argument. I never meant to offend your delicate sensibilities.

Seriously though, I just love college football, that’s all. And while I enjoy reading about it, my knowledge is lacking. So I usually only comment on things that I know more about … such as flags and shit.

True dat, Biggus. True dat!

Sarah, how do you feel about Chevy Camaros?

Sarah this . . . Sarah that . . . get your dick out of your heart!

I’m not sure what all the hub-bub is about. I only recruit openly gay players.

I don’t know what “get your dick out of your heart” means, but it has a nice ring.

As a life-long southerner and Georgia resident, I actually like what Sarah had to say.

People down here are way to scared of gay people. Makes them seem gay. (Zing!)

By the way, GT’s fight song is really gay. But that’s okay, because Tech is in Midtown. So it fits.

I hate to defend anything Tennessee, but I think the idea behind the Rocky Top lyric is that once you experience la dolce vita of the Tennessee hills, drunk off that moonshine, you’re no longer a stranger and you’ll never leave. Not that if you come up on their land they shoot you and feed you to the pigs, a la Brick Top.

My parents are both UVA grads, and around my house, we always add " . . . but not too gay" at the end of that line when we sing the Good Ol’ Song.

Then my mom does the Wahoo Dance, which is awesome.

coop=mike gundy? “I’M A LAWYER!! I WENT TO LAW SCHOOL!!!”

threads like this are good; they keep me from forgetting that being an SEC football fan (and native Southerner) means being linked forever with red-faced blustering troglodytes who are terrified of women, black people or anyone who by their definition “ain’t got their heart in Dixie.”

eat shit, rednecks.

It’s one of the fundamental laws of the universe that the more emphatically a person denies being gay, the gayer they will seem. With that in mind, I think changing the song lyric is probably counterproductive.

If students are that self-conscious about the word “gay”, they should just hum the darn song.

My favorite song line for a school is:
F*&^k you Rocky Top, Go to hell Tennessee, you’ll never be home to meeeee….

Hey, zup with all this gay rights crap, Phil Jackson’s catching heat for his “Brokeback Mountain” comment
saying that the game had too much “penetration” and fouls in the “backcourt”,….at least Alabama hasn’t decided to make their mascot “Big Gay AL” ….yet…..
“I’m thuper, thanks for asthing”
Whats wrong in saying “I’m not gay, and I’m proud”?
All that says is I like boobs…..and motorboating..and I dont care if my shirt clashes with my eyes…I refuse to drink flirtini’s,I like a woman hairdresser and a female masseuse…and strippers who make bad choices

#32

Nice Guy Ritchie reference…I always thought of Tennessee people as Pikers anyway, that just proves my point…..

Know what else is gay?
All the men going to the game wearing the same outfit of startched white dress shirt, khakis and blue/orange striped tie.

So is wearing a hat with “Cocks” written on it.

Ya-buuuuuuuurrrrrrrrrnnnn!!

Nothing’s gayer than Chief Osceola. Put him with Purdue Pete and Okie State’s mascot, and you got yourself half of the Village People.

Now this is good.

From an opinion piece in the UVA student paper. http://www.cavalierdaily.com/CVArticle.asp?ID=31669&pid=1652

“I understand that the word “gay” in the “Good Ol’ Song” is meant to translate as happy, but why is it wrong to assert our religious and political views at the juncture, as we should be able to at any juncture?"

This kid (a UVA freshman) is so homophobic he has to stand up and yell he’s not gay when no one is calling him gay. He’ll be tapping his foot in an airport men’s room any day now.

#40
Know whats gayer than that…..USCe school slogan..
Be Cocky!
When does USCw play USCe?
Does that imply all kinds of gayness in the jokes that will ensue if and when that game happens?
As for gambling, I think the Trojans will cover the ’Cocks….__________________(insert your joke here) …..its just too easy

1. Biggus Rickus,

“. . . get your dick out of your heart” is straight from this heart-warming story of Hall & Oates’ evolution from “Sara Smile” to being the Boom Motherfuckers of the smooth music scene of the 70’s.

http://www.channel101.com/shows/view.php?media_id=1337

I guess it wouldn’t be a complete discussion about gayness without a Yacht Rock reference.

Rock on!! But in loafers.

#2:

And yet, I think it inspires more homicidal thoughts than any other fight song.

33 that is soooo gay
not there is anything wrong with that
just saying

This thread is starting to remind me of the “Know how I know you’re gay?” scene from “40-Year-Old Virgin.”

“Sara Smile” … almost as good as Jefferson Airplane’s “Sarah”. Classic songs, both.

Cocks hats will always be gay, especially when idiots buy them to wear ironically. Not amusing dude …

Oh and this is really only a comment so I can include my dorky little myspace: Coop, you seem to really dislike me, get in touch if you feel the need, hate f*cking has its merit too.

#41
And of course, add the Navys mascot….uh, a goat? WTF….scratch that…I thought it was a sailor, but a MF’n goat? That would be Tennessees version of the Village people..lol…a goat.on a boat..dont know where or why that is the way it is, I was in the navy and never got lonely enought to do a goat……..God how did people miss the Village people being gay???… My Grandma actually liked them til she found out they were gay, then refused to let us sing along……would actually change the channel on the eight track in the station wagon to get away from the Village People…

I thought they didn’t come down from rocky top because they got drunk as ballz off the shine? No?

The gayest thing about UVa is their first down cheer. Also, Terps fans are unclassy and lame.

GT needs a drinking fight song because its all we have. I got an economics degree, so I used to sing helluva financier, I think that might be the gayest, right there, if you are looking for gayness, you found it…oil me up hot stuff!

Damn you Orson. Now I’ve got Rocky Top stuck in my head. Except I sing the alternate lyrics (Auburn version) which includes “F@ck you Rocky Top, you’ll never mean one damn thing to me!” It was doubly fun beating them the second time around in 04. What happened to my team when I’m slightly nervous about the Bama game?

Honestly, a South Carolina fan referring to what other schools do as gay?

Wow, just wow.

“Well yeah but down here in the Bible belt justifiable murder of one’s opponent or your whore of a wife is so much more acceptable than someone daring to go outside the box (or munch box) and (gasp!) go against God’s plan.”

The above is not sarcasm, or a bad joke. It is mere condescension, nothing more.

Again, Delta remains ready whenever you are. We can have you in Cleveland by nightfall if that is where you want to be.

why is it wrong to assert our religious and political views at the juncture, as we should be able to at any juncture?

I’m taking tomorrow off so I can drive down to Charlottesville and heckle that pompous little fucker as he leaves classes – as I should be able to at any juncture.

Hey #48, I’ll play.

You know how I know UVA’s gay?
Because they’re scared to hear the word gay in their own damn fight song.

34

Why take shit so seriously, bra?

All who dare impugn the unbridled, Gregory Peck-ish masculinity of Cavman shall be taken for the most brutal of mustache rides on his wax-curled nose duster.

DC, can we carpool? I have a giant black dildo I want to tease him with.

I always enjoyed the mid-90s alternate lyrics: “rocky top, you’ll always be, second in the SEC…”

We can have you in Cleveland by nightfall if that is where you want to be.

What, the oil-lamps don’t throw enough light after dusk down that-a-way?

See, that’s condescension.

I feel I should point out that “Up With the White and Gold” is actually a song we stole from Cal after the 1929 Rose Bowl.

Cal version is the “Stanford Jonah”, which, as one might imagine, advocates the axing of Stanford’s head.

The Tech version also got sped up and dropped the “CHOP” at some point in the past 70 years. (All I know is that it was well gone by the time I enrolled in 2003.)

Anyway, I doubt anyone cares, but I though I’d throw it out there.

Nothing’s gayer than those gaaaaaaay tiger tails that every AU skank in the state has hanging out the trunk of their car.

DC, can we carpool? I have a giant black dildo I want to tease him with.

I guess so, but I think that’s like transporting a shotgun – you need to put that junk in the trunk.

Wait, that came out wrong….

1. WTF?!?!?! The Village People were GAY?

Oh you know what’s def. def. gay: UGA players with mini scooters. That’s like tickle fight gay.

S – The Coach

Gayest bumper sticker ever.

In the mean time A&M just refers to good old fashioned cattle vandalism before going straight for the crotch massage.

“Saw varsity’s horns off, saw varsity’s horns off, …yadda yadda yadda”

“varsity’s horns are sawed off, varsity’s horns are sawed off… etc… (grab your nuts and be NOT GAY!!)

Gay- A school which gets angry when you don’t call them by their acronym. Louisiana State anyone? We almost got into a bar fight over that one.

Re Orson’s comment at #12: Or, to quote the one of the funniest signature lines in the history of MHT, “Sure, I’m for gay marriage . . . but only if both chicks are really hot.”

Cal gets a mention for “Fight for California.” Cal gets another mention for “Stanford Jonah” – the original version of of Georgia Tech’s “White and Gold.” Plus there’s this little Cal song:

We’re gonna scalp you, Stanford
We’re going to scalp you blue;
We’ll do it with your tomahawk
We took from you. Rah! Rah! Rah!
All ‘round our belts we’ll hang them
To show all our friends who’s dead;
We’re gonna carve some blockheads
Whose scalps are red.

And I though Berkeley was supposed to be the champions of political correctness? Oh well …

56

seriously, eat shit.

Coop: Back in #18 you assumed Orson was condeming male homsexualtiy, have you never seen Orson proclaim his gayness?

I dunno why you are so threatened by Sarah, you are coming off like the neighbor in “American Beauty”

Just to be clear, most of the students at UVA games don’t actually say the “not gay” chant. Its a select few who do, and its usually because they’re drunk and trying to piss people off. Since the meaning of the song is completely irrelevant to sexual orientation, these people really just look like dumbasses.

71

I feel sorry for you.

And nothing’s gayer, now that I think about it, than “War Damn Eagle.”

Oooh, he said “damn!”

Everybody’s school is gay except mine, especially said school arch-rival, who is supergay.

#34:
+1 mason jar of moonshine to you.

#49:
Technically, by that point, they were Starship (no longer having the legal right the Jefferson Airplane or Jefferson Starship names). But it’s still one of my favorite cheez-rock tunes.

Coop: Isn’t it awfully cramped and stuffy there in the closet?

76

YES!

#65:

Seriously, don’t go there. Flag boys who live in glass houses . . .

You know what’s really gay? Brady Quinn.

And another thing that’s gay? When ND orders up those gay green jerseys for some big game, and then gets stomped. Actually, that’s not gay at all, but it’s funny as hell.

I am sure we’ll be hearing from Boi from Troi , right about nowwwww, who’s definately not gai

not that there’s anything wrong with that

Folks seem to have a gay ole’ time with those pom-poms…

83:

They are shakers! Or stirrers, as the case may be.

Catherine’s right-
Almost no one says “not gay” anymore (though the VPI game will be my first this season; maybe it’s back).

Also, I always thought the “strangers” in Rocky Top were tax officials trying to enforce the liquor taxes, and that the implication was that they were murdered in cold blood for trying to enforce the law (taxes being one of the main reasons for distilling moonshine at home to begin with). I understand that this is considered good behavior in the deep dirty dirty, where they root against the United States when they watch civil war movies.

Ramblin’ Wreck is far superior, an ode to drinking and profanity if there ever was one.

I’m a Ramblin’ Wreck from Georgia Tech
And A Helluva Engineer
A Helluva Helluva Helluva Helluva Helluva Hell of an Engineer
Like all the jolly good fellows
I drink my whiskey clear
I’m a Ramblin’ Wreck from Georgia Tech
And A Helluva Engineer

Oh, If I Had a Daughter, Sir!
I’d dress her in White and Gold.
And put her on the campus
to cheer the brave and bold! (new version: to raise the ratio)
But, if I had a son, sir, I’d tell you what he’d do.
He would yell TO HELL WITH GEORGIA
Like his daddy used to do.

Oh if I had a barrel of rum and sugar three thousand pounds
A college bell to put it in.
A clapper to stir it around.
I’d drink to all the good fellows………who come from far and near.
I’m a Ramblin’ Gamblin’ HELL OF AN ENGINEER!

a: i think they meant gay as the was it was formerly used, as in “happy.”
b: i know for a fact that a is correct.
c: flying confederate battle flags and football: IT’S WHAT THE SOUTH DOES.
d: having only read about 40 of the above posts, it seems to me that we’ve gotten distracted from the main issue here:

FLORIDA HAS THE WORST FIGHT SONG IN THE HISTORY OF THE WORLD. the orange and blue is the lamest, most generic, pointless, random jumble of old-school college generalizations that has EVER existed. WE DON’T HAVE FLAGS

sorry. i just hate our fight song. i’m re-working it.

in fact, i remembered that i had written one about a year ago. here are the lyrics as they should be sung forever and ever by the gator nation.

Let’s give a yell for the Orange and Blue,
Fighting Forever.
We are the Pride of Old Florida,
May we lose never!
Up on your feet for the Team Today,
Fight for the Gator Way!
On to the Goal
We’ll Fight our Way for
Flor-I-Da!

Revised UF fight song: (sung to god bless america)

God Bless Florida,
State that I love.
Stand beside her, and guide her
In a fight with a knife in ‘da Club
From the grape fruit, to the grannies,
To the oceans, white with foam (that line I’ll keep)
God bless Florida, My home sweet home.

fwiw…all fight songs are pretty gay. go ahead…break down your school’s fight song…GAY!!! they’re only cool when you have jim beam coursing through your veins and your school has just hung 7 on some team you hate with every fiber of your being. a fight song in any other context than that is gay.

#85: That’s what I’ve always understood Rocky Top to mean. Speaking of…what’s up with this verse?

Once there was a girl on rocky top,
Half bear the other half cat.
Wild as a mink, sweet as soda pop,
I still dream about that.

Is this some sort of bizarre hillbilly Island of Dr. Moreau?

I have to agree with gerry dorsey that fight songs are gay in general. Exceptions being Notre Dame’s, Michigan’s, (begrudgingly) Georgia Tech’s and USC’s sounds good, though I have no idea what the words are.

All fight songs are gay. Period. Not as gay as writing LOL after something you type, but pretty gay. ELOHEL.

Brian O,

I contend that writing LOL in any context is gay. lol

Biggus, take solace that you’re going to lay 30+ pts. on us next week……………………………

Grrrrrr.

Techie,

Nah, you’ll play an inspired game and we’ll eke out a 20-16 win largely because your QB sucks.

All fight songs are G-A-Y but Georgia’s cause the Battle Hymn of the Republic is so steadfastly straight by design … yet fab-u-lous. Glory, Glory bitches.

time for the token:

UVA is gay. anyone who feels the need to scream NOT GAY is gay.

that’s science.

also, i though that phil jackson’s comment was fucking hilarious.

That good old song of Wah-hoo-wah,
We ‘ll sing it o ’er and o ’er.
It cheers our hearts and warms our blood
To hear them shout and roar.
We come from Old Virginia,
Where all is bright and NOT GAY.
Let’s all join hands and give a yell,
For the dear old UVa.
Wah-hoo-wah,
Wah-hoo-wah.
Uni-v, Virginia,
Hoo-rah-ray,
Hoo-rah-ray,
Ray! Ray! U-V-A!

courtesy of theSabre.com, bitches.

fuck political correctness, and go hoos go.

If Tebow would go ahead and admit he is gay, it would do a lot for the Rainbow Coalition in Florida, and may even convert a few more fans that are on the fence, maybe even Mike Shula….12 hours at a recruits house? I’m just sayin……

All anybody knows of USC’s song is…

Fight on for USC
Our men fight on
to victory
fight on

and then just recombine the various fragments of that until the band stops playing

The best use of a conferderate flag that I’ve seen was on a bumper sticker. It said “You Lost. Get over it”.

The Phil Jackson “story” just points out how scared and silly people get with the fear of offending anybody these days.

The comment section was always so much more enjoyable when Pickens county (home of clemson university) didn’t have the internet…

Again, Delta remains ready whenever you are. We can have you in Cleveland by nightfall if that is where you want to be.

Hey, fucker, we don’t count Ohio as part of the North. You can have it.

Man, I’m pissed I missed this thread today.

Coop don’t forget you orange overall wearing turd burglar, that Deliverance was shot only 35 minutes from Clemson’s campus.

1. Did you just offer to hate-fuck someone? Cause god damn, I didn’t realize there were benefits to being a complete asshole…

Wilbur – I’m drunk — very very drunk and have been for a couple hours. It’s almost time for Thanksgiving break and no class for the students round these parts … so yeah, hate fucking is just an amusing distraction. Coop hates women though so I’m thinking he’s want to go all anal – not a-okay.

It could be that coop just wants to perform a missionary hate fuck, which is redundant. Anal hate fucks seem kinda gay. Yeah, call back. Mic dropped.

wow, I thought thanksgiving was NEXT week. I was once at a college that gave a week off, but I didn’t know anybody got more than that.

Sarah has definitely upped the titilation factor around here today.

Mike Bronson wonders what they would write if the fans yelled, “Not fags.” Seriously, if Mike Bronson were not infatuated with the possiblilites presented by Eastern European mail order poon and found himself queered out, the chance to catch the Hoos in venerable Scott Stadium would pale in comparison to the chance to re-decorate Mike Bronson’s grandmother’s house while listening to some old Cher L.P.’s. Mike Bronson thinks these kids need to rediscover sodomy and shut their whining pieholes.

A sad, pathetic peek into my world: refreshing this thread repeatedly (obvs) … watching tonight’s 30 Rock again on Tivo … killing that 6-pack of Sweetwater Blue … thinking of ways to be funnier. We only get 3 days off, yes. But since no real work is done from here on out till next Monday the 26th, I’ve been drunk as shit since 4 pm. GO DAWGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Wildcats can suck it!

Read the quote from one of the “student leaders” in that article: http://insidehighered.com/news/2007/11/15/virginia . Actually, don’t. It’s the same long-winded, unrealistic, self-important bullshit I got used to at UVA. “not gay” doesn’t even make sense in the song, it’s not clever. But when this little crusade popped up every other year, it made me want to run into the visitors section and lay down some hate speech. As long as 19 year old girls are telling media how “we’re going to stop this”, it’s going to stay around. It’s called spite.

And UVA is rainbow gay. Pink polos – nuff said.

#42

You have a problem with the UVA student making a point to proclaim he’s gay?

I suppose you also have a problem with raging flamers in a gay pride parade walking down the street proclaiming their flaming gayness at the top of their lungs with ridiculously gay slogans? Just sayin.

Next thing we know, Fred and Barney will be proclaimed gay because of the last line in their theme song.

This thread has inspired me into posting, and also to acknowledging that a major step to getting engaged should be to have your girlfriend exist in these comment threads for a year and see what she’s like.

Sarah, 5 points for you, girl.

sarah,

to insert a link to your myspace page, only to have said myspace page set to private is just bad form. and to top it all off, the profile pic would indicate there may be something to look at. color me (and a few hundred other dudes on here) disappointed.

#109

Did you read the link to the UVA opinion letter? The student isn’t proclaiming he IS gay, he’s proclaiming he’s NOT gay. That’s the whole subject of the blog story.

I like sweetwater blue. and 420. Delicious.

Seven Years in Gainesville:

I think the Cooperhead Road sect of the Tennessee fanbase would disagree.

Otherwise, it is so nice to see the open channels of academia alive and well at Virginia (and this site). Jefferson would be so proud.

1. - that’s good knowledge. As an Old Blue, I appreciate it.

The various scalping references in the song you quote are due to Stanfurd’s mascot — pre-PC, they used to be the Indians. They someone down on the Farm got a bug up they ass and they turned themselves into a f**king tree. Sorry, Cardinal. Whatever. They’re both gay. Yes, a gay tree. Gay as the west wind. Queer as a three dollar bill.

Lest we forget, Coop is also the one always trying to tell other men what they should or should not wear to football games.

The Good Ole Song is the alma mater, not the fight song.

Setting aside that issue, I prefer to yell “Tech’s Gay” in reference to our neighbors down at VPI. While the word “Tech” when used in the ACC more properly refers to Georgia Tech, “VPI’s Gay” is too many syllables.
