SDSU Vs. Navy Basetball game

Well, win 100 @ Cox Arena for the Aztecs Men's Basketball arena came against the US Naval Academy before some 5500 folks. For the record, it was a 86-76 final in favor of SDSU. That is not what I'm going to be writing about however, what I'm writing about is (and I'm pretty leaniant when it comes to student sections) the poor sportsmanship from "The Show".

"The Show" for those who don't already know is the SDSU student section. You may have seen them when the Aztecs have been on TV, they are the ones that put up all of the face cut-outs surign the second half in an attempt to make the opponents miss thier free throws.

So, one of teh things that "The Show" does that I find actually really humorus is when Bryan Main is introducing the opponents, they are acting like they are reading the Daily Aztec. Then when Bryan is done announcing the opponents, they throw the copies of the DA in the air and start to cheer for the Aztecs. I have no problem with this, the problem that I had with "The Show" tonight was the fact that they were actually booing the Midshipman (don't call us the Middies) during the intros.

How can you boo the military?

I understand that it was the opponent for the evening, and all, but come on, its the Navy. If you really want to look at the city of San Diego, if it wasn't for the Navy & all the stuff this city does for the military in general, there wouldn't be a San Diego. And this one point to the SDSU Athletics dept. You are playing the US NAVAL academy, don't have the ARMY ROTC present the colors!!!!! That is just wrong!

So that will do it for bog post 1.003, Round two of the two round fight between SDSU & the US Naval Academy. The women will tip-off @ 7.
