Oh come on...I hear the same train of thought coming out of people who say "we shouldn't question the president in time of war." Sorry but I'm for freedom of expression at all times. Booing is A-OK anytime, anywhere in my book.

I'm with Sheriff. Gee, that's great that booing makes you feel better by "expressing dissatisfaction." Gee, now that we've all expressed ourselves, let's all have a good cry about the team's performance and go out for manicures.

NO.

Your team is down and playing like crap, you don't go off on the fan's version of an emotional tirade which is booing. You suck it up and you cheer harder.

Booing the team makes it seem like you demand them to win because you're entitled because you paid money. That's not how it works. You're either part of the problem or part of the solution. Booing just causes problems. Cheering louder so that Minnesota can't hear the audibles would be part of the solution.

If you boo, then your just an impatient self-asbsorbed passionless bandwagon hopper that should be thrown out the stadium. I'm sick of fair-weather fans... if you want to express your discontent, do it in the forum.

For the record...just because the 'skins are a work in progress (oh wow are we really that suprised?) doesn't mean its time to abandon ship. Nothing looked awful last night. The offensive timing is starting to come together and it will be hard to stop the weapons. Have faith...

and if you lose it... don't boo.

It does get out of hand sometimes...look how the boo-birds in New York are screwing with A-Rod's head.

Booing a bad decision or boneheaded play is ok, but don't boo your own team every time they don't score immidiately. More often than not, it will make the players get out of their gameplan by overplaying/overthinking or it will just make them not care.

Home teams NEED their fans on their side.

Lets not talk politics. The two situations are worlds apart. Booing is disrespectful, serves no purpose whatsoever, and is counter-productive.
Let's just agree to disagree on this one.

If you can't handle booing you're not a professional enough.

Ever hear players talk about the feeling they get from hearing the roar of the crowd in a packed stadium after scoring a touchdown? They talk about it all the time how the roar of the crowd makes them feel euphoric. You're crazy if you think booing doesn't produce the opposite effect.

Yeah, I did think it was an odd place to slip that in. Some people just can't help themselves.
