    To get my mind off the dismal 2nd half performance in tonight's game, I'll try to be helpful and productive. I'm not sure if the Red Rowdies ever take suggestions for new chants, but I'm sure that the Clutchfans denizens have some good ideas.

    Here's mine. And please, offer your own suggestions. I need a good laugh.

    Situation:

    Bad calls or very inconsistent refereeing... For example, when the Rockets have the ball, the defender pushes with two-hands-in-the-back while Yao is posting up, follows up with a good solid knee to his ample behind, insults his mother and his restaurant, gouges him in the eye and takes the ball but is somehow rewarded with a steal or block while Yao wanders aimlessly back up the court. Then when the opponent has the ball, Artest glares at a player who may or may not have the ball... Scola brushes his hair out of his own eyes... maybe Yao does the "awww shucks" clap. Whistle blown - two shots and the ball, a possible ejection, Adelman death stare.

    The Chant

    We want Violet! (repeat as necessary)

    The Impact

    The "I'm blind! I'm deaf! I wanna be a ref!" chant is cute and all, but let's be honest. Referees are probably used to the whole "what, are you blind?!?" thing. "We want Violet!", on the other hand, is subtle... Nothing else quite says "you suck at your job" like suggesting that everyone might be better off if it were performed by Violet Palmer instead of you.

    Note

    Only effective on nights where Violet Palmer is not in the building.

    Pass the ball Artest, pass the ball.

    Yao's restaurant deserves to be insulted... just saying.

    I was thinking "MVP! MVP! MVP!" chants when Kobe is at the line, but just realized it's already played out

    :rolleyes:

    I think you should have a poster of Violet and just chant VI-O-LET a bunch of times. We want Violet seems like a mouthful.

    Chanting RON ARTEST at the free throw line isn't creative.


    I like chants of WHO ARE YOU? when it's some scrub at the free throw line.


    I know the Rowdies are restricted in what they can say, so i'm quickly running out of ideas.
