  1. I'm sure that most everyone that actually posts on these boards is true to the team and tries to go to as many games as possible, but I know there are some lurking skeptics out there.I'm calling you all out to get off your butts and get up to the JAR for the OU and Can't games. Don't make excuses. The team needs us and we need to be loud. The ratio is awful between students who signed up to be AK-Rowdies and those students that actually show up. Zips Athletics asked students what would make them come to games, the students responded, and Akron has gone well past meeting your demands.Everything is in order. We get free stuff at every game, the best seats in the house, and the team is doing awesome this year. And still no one shows up. What's up with all you chumps? I'm calling out all you slackers who signed up for the free shirt and then hit the road. I challenge you all to go to the game and be as loud as you can. And I'm not talking about being loud just during the game. We need to be getting on the players from the other teams before the game and during timeouts. We should all be bringing signs and acting like all-out A-Holes. The OU game is on ESPN2, on national television. Our fans got great exposure for the Motor City Bowl and we looked like a school that cares about our athletics. The football team snuck in the back door last year and took advantage of the situation. The basketball team has been amazing all year. We need everyone to participate to pull off what we have planned. Now, this brings me to what is planned. There is a meeting on Friday at 6PM in the JAR to fill everyone in (It's a secret). We got cheer sheets to prepare everyone to make noise. The NCAA won't let us have noisemakers inside arenas, so we need to make as much noise as we can with our mouths. The other teams should not even be able to communicate on the floor. We need to be THAT loud. If you watch a normal college basketball game on TV, the home fans are always amazing. We need that advantage. I expect the announcers to comment on how loud it is and how its causing turnovers.There it is, fellas. I'm calling you out. Get your butts to the game or prepare to Fear the Roo!
