But what college kid thinks the imagery of a nursery rhyme and "Row Your Boat" is cool?!?!?!? It's cringe-worthy....he's like Michael Scott with this sh*t...."The Hard Way" is far cooler...at least you could use Wacka Flacka "Hard in da paint" or any number of songs stressing being "Hard"....whoops, that came out wrong

Can you see the head coach in 2063 gathering his players around in fall camp to explain the origins of the boat oars- Well, you see, there was this coach here 50 years ago who decided he didn't like the western bronco imagery and decided to change everything to boats and oars and stuff. Now the coach was only here for 1 season and he left for his new job in the ACC before the team even played its bowl game but the program decided to carry on this boat motif without him because of what it meant to WMU and the people here in the coastal town of Kalamazoo, MI. Any questions?

that's the part I feel bad about.

Best post I've seen on the subject.

I love that, "coastal town of Kalamazoo".
