Captain Kangaroo Posted January 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2011 Just remember: 1) If it's too loud, YOU'RE TOO OLD. 2) If you're offended, YOU'RE TOO OLD. What do you think your kids are listening to when mom and pop aren't around? What do you think they're watching? What do you think they're saying to each other? That song, and the dance team, might well be the only things your kids think are relevant and/or interesting at the Zips BB games. No one is complaing about the volume. If you think blasting that song, with the lyrics listed above, is appropriate for a college basketball game, you are ignorant. Period. Play the song in your car, your iPod...watch a girl swing around a brass pole while that song blasts in the background...I'm fine with it. But don't ask parent-coaches to bring their 3rd and 4th grade Kiwanis basketball teams to games where songs like that are featured entertainment. That's ignorant. It is ironic that we have standards on ZipsNation where profanity is banned. We don't want "Little Joeys" (young kangaroo) subjected to it. But some people who think profanity on our board is intolerable, seem to think it is perfectly fine to hear at Zips sporting events? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If people are throwing F-bombs out in the stands, they can and should get kicked out. What makes this different? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ctmjbowes@sbcglobal.net Posted January 18, 2011 Report Share Posted January 18, 2011 OK, so then I have a question for you. Do you guys use canes or walkers? Cap'n, you're just angry because your kid was rocking to the tune and singing the lyrics while busting out his brand-new grill! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
