What was offensive, and I agree with the Admin, was instead of cheering 
"Rough 'em up" it became "<Biological Act> 'em up".  These are supposed to 
be highly educated human beings.  Surely they can be more creative than 
that.

Joe Bertagna had a column on USCHO a few years ago about his experiences in 
net for Harvard's JV vs. Penn.  His heckler was very creative and humorous 
in his cheers, to the extent that Joe B shook his hand after the game.  We 
need more of that.
