We will go with a 50/50 mix. Heres how it will go for each half. We will alternate media timeouts at the 16,12,8 &4 minute marks.. (if there is no media then we will alternate full timeouts... I will take the 30 second timeouts(with music or sponsor PA's) because by the time they get up and get ready to play.. the thirtys are about up. ....

We all have to thank AMM for his response and action to our complaints. I will also say don't blame the music for guys who can't control themselves in the stands. Security should and will eject any fans from the gym who walks onto the court during play and also without authorization. I have all the confidence that this issue has already been addressed by the athletic department for the next two home games.
I also don't want Eaves to have an heart attack on the sidelines. I thought the AD was going to have to called the paramedics for Eaves if the game was going to get any closer than it did.
The music is available for all the fans in the gym to enjoy and not just for two people.
Not all complaints are legitimate complaints like wanting to have a strip show at center court to the song "I don't want no short d@#k man". Playing "Ho sit down" is hitting it close to the line but hey, I graduated in the 80's and used to yell "Aggies run this mutha*&%#, hell yea!".
All in all Aggiemarketingman, I give you big props and be careful reacting to some people's complaints. Give a negro a rope and he will soon want to be a cowboy.

The band stops playing a short time after the game so security can get the fans out the gym faster. On Saturdays people are ready to party and what better way to get 'krunk up' than hanging loose and listening to some slamming music by the pep band.

Once the game is over I dont have any control over how long they play. I know they like to clear the gym. As for the other post. Thanks Aggiejazz but just for the record let me clear something else up for the masses. The original version of the foul out song is Ho sit down.. but i have the radio version so the one i have says GO sit down(of course you cant hear the GO because all the kids are saying HO)... just becuase i want to make sure that we try to keep all the cuts radio clean and not cause any of the older alumni to have massive coronary failure over there if they hear something they deem inappropriate. I gotta maintain that little bit of order.. As for the kids being on the floor the other night. I am meeting with them tonight to make it clear that their enthusiasm has to remain behind the blue lines. Once we do that Im going to leave it alone .. but rest assured that they will be reminded of the boundaries and the consequences associated with crossing those boundaries.. but i certainly dont want to take any of the gas off the fire that they create in that corner over there... As far as responding to complaints/ideas.... i try to make sure that I take everybody's ideas into consideration because as i said before.. i didnt create this environment by myself and i cant make it better by myself.. so it takes the input of EVERYBODY.. (outside of having a dance off between blue reign and golden delight... ;D)... So anytime there are ideas that can help us grow the environment.. im all for it.. Im always ready and willing to add new stuff to our game day package(within reason.. see above dance off reference ... It was worth a shot though... ... See ya'll saturday..

I think someone from 'Blue Reign" has been reading this message board and finally took the criticism seriously enough to improve their performances. It works!!!
