Re: STOP the "Neers NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!
If Auburn won five national titles in the last 10 years, App students would be saying "War Damn Neers!"
"Neers" is okay. "Roll Neers" needs to die.
We can have our cake and eat it. Bugler's Dream and Mo Bamba can coexist.

Re: STOP the "Neers NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!
As a young alumni, I think what is most tiring about this, is the fact that so many of you try to define happiness for the rest of the fan base. IT’S OK for other generations to establish their own traditions. You guys call them “Apps,” and a lot of younger people say “‘Neers,” so what? If it helps young alumni and students develop that emotional attachment to the program, then let it be. It’s hilarious because you guys will constantly talk about the lack of passion from students and young alums, but when they try to get involved you demand they do it your way or don’t be fans at all. Can’t have it all.

No complaining here until it crosses over to innappropriate, then it’s gotta go. Music, language, gestures, there is a line at an event that has children. Not saying you can’t have all the freedoms this country affords, but there is an appropriate time and place.

Re: STOP the "Neers NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!
No we are trying to maintain and perpetuate traditions.....You think students at Alabama are trying to change "Roll Tide"? Penn State students changing a white out to a blue out? VaTech changing Enter Sandman to some rap song? No we get the "You suck ahole" tradition. Embrace the old don't throw it out for some millennial fad du jour. Traditions span generations.J_Mountaineers wrote: ↑Mon Nov 19, 2018 2:51 pmAs a young alumni, I think what is most tiring about this, is the fact that so many of you try to define happiness for the rest of the fan base.

In the 70s, we frequently referred to ourselves as the 'Neers. GO 'NEERS Beat the Tros.

Re: STOP the "Neers NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!
Rek, I get what you’re saying and my point isn’t to throw out old traditions, but establishing that new generations of students aren’t allowed to generate their own traditions, is just asinine.

Re: STOP the "Neers NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!
I just graduated in May and over the 4 years in school I can safely say I heard ‘Neers probably 90% of the time as opposed to Apps or whatever term, so that’s what most students are going to use love it or hate it.

Re: STOP the "Neers NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!
I seem to recall hearing "Neers" when I was in school in the 90s. I don't particularly care for it but whatever. I don't think it's a new thing. Then again "Appy" and "App- a- LAY-shun" dont really bother me either. Call us what you want, just call us.
I'd rather hear App students and alums say "Go Neers" than "Go Heels" but that's a story for another thread.
