Pit Crew Officially Back!

I had to miss the game tonight but I will make it an effort not to miss anymore. About how many people were there for the pit crew tonight and did they chant and yell the whole time??

Not sure of the number, but it was good.

And yep, they were gratifyingly obnoxious. In a tasteful and sportsmanlike way, of course.

This is a group of active organizations coming together to increase attendance and spirit, not one gang formed to "take down" an established organization. I'm sorry that their supporting our team runs contrary to your wanting to belittle the other team.

Sweet...I've been accused of being part of a gang!

Bryan...why do you and the rest of the Talons who actually still give a rat's ass about your organization always come across like you have some kind of "guilty conscience" about how you guys run your organization...and play the Dickey card of "everyone's out to get us"?

Listen...just as others have said. We weren't looking to take Talons down. We were looking to find a way to get them off their asses. It worked, did it not? Suddenly you guys had to prove your worth.

Here is a question.

Do you guys like how the benches are now? With the loud student section pumpin up our bench.

or

Being by the away bench? With easy access to the away team.

I liked being able to taunt the away coach and players but compared to the past 3 years our bench is more into the game and supportive of one another.

Congrats' to the Pit Crew last night! Great Job! It will be fun to watch ya'll continue to grow in numbers.

Grand job by all the fans! JJ mentioned it in his post-game how the fans helped rally the players!

Way to Go!

Last night was great, but still lacked the flair and enthusiasm of the original Pit Crew and the biggest part was the fact we were not behind the visitor bench. Like with their player Kone. We could have easily gotten in his head last night after the missed dunk and turnover if we were next to their bench during the time out. It really killed a lot of the noise any time there was a time out because they were too far away to really heckle. Being an alum and having tickets in the other side of the stadium I will be sitting next to the visitor bench with a couple buddies anyone that wants to come over and join us there is more than welcome.

The Pit Crew did a good job last night...they were loud and cheerful but as Buzz said it DEFINITELY is mixing that flair it had when we were behind the bench. That team had PRIME opportuntiy to razz on some players. # 10 looked like a chicken...that guy was built wrong!!!!

I give you props on the newspaper thing.... that was funny we used to try to pull that off but never could get many to do it with us....

One suggestion for that...Sittting on the oteher side of the arena the "WHO CARES'' was difficulot to understand....Maybe just cut it to a big loud WHOOOO? We used to yell that when they were announced.

Yell the whole game even if we are down by 10...find a palyer on the other team that is officially the pit crew's goat and tear him up! Yell at the coach when he is on the court, etc etc etc...its hard to do when you're sof ar from the bench but that may not be completely something you can control
