Here Comes The No Fun Police

So I received an email from Gopher Athletics the other day. I couldn't believe that it had taken this long for the University to offer me my hockey scholarship, but whatever, better late than never. Imagine my disappointment to only find a link to a questionnaire about hockey games.The survey starts out innocently enough, but becomes more and more sinister as it goes on. The term "positive cheers" literally brought chills to my spine and causes me to dry heave.

Here's the thing. The college sport atmosphere is completely different than the professional sport atmosphere. If families are worried about their kid hearing the occasional f-bomb, get seats farther from the student section, or you can go to a pro event for basically the same price. I'm sick of all this PC bullshit. Also, the email mentions "new guidelines on sportsmanship and fan behavior at collegiate hockey games" that were recently passed by the WCHA. But I can't find any mention of it anywhere.

But the best part was when I submitted the survey I got this:Good work, guys.

If you wanna try to take the survey, here it is.
