More cheers from Wisconsin

When you tune into ESPN tomorrow night at 9pm eastern, feel free to intone as many (or as few) of the following verses that you'd like. They were composed by a collection transplanted Southerners, who, compared to the resident native Cheese-heads, are the epitome of passion for collegiate sports. They were/are an attempt to infuse some real spirit into a team that has found its way into the mid-major limelight. Enjoy!

Cheese to the left,
Cheese to the right,
C'mon Panthers,
Go, go, go
(the old bait-and-switch)


I gotta brat!
You wanna brat!
Goooooo Panthers!

From our Bayou Bengal Brethern:
Rah-rah-ree,
Rah-rah-rap,
Maidson girls have the...
(insert sound effect: bring hands sharply together 3 times in quick, rhythmic succession)!

And in our on-going attempt to use Wisconsin cities/towns as parts of speech other than their usual proper noun-age:
Oconomowoc!
Oconomowoc!
Sheboygan from behind!

The parts of speech thing is an interesting passtime, and truly does shead light on how we see these places. Wendy AuClair said it the best when she claimed that she was "feeling quite Racine." Nice job, lady.

I rather enjoyed the Oconomowoc cheer. OUT-standing.

I'm a big fan of
Appleton,
Neenah,
Gooooooooooooo Kimberly Clark.

I was in Appleton last week, and my god it's cold up there. I have to go to Grand Rapids next week, and I really don't want to.

Great job at the game last night, man. Your strategic placement of "Rock and Roll" was just what the Panthers needed. Good luck in the Dance.

We all heard it..and obviously, you are the reason the team was successful. BTW, I'm certain that Grand Chute can be worked into conversation easily enough....
