I went to another basketball game last night and rediscovered one of my all time hates...the "AIR BALL" chant.
The reason why I hate this chant is 3-fold.
1) It's not nice
2) We are all only human, give a player a break
3) (and this is most important) It's just not clever at all
If you really want to make them feel bad, be ironic or something. The AIR BALL chant is like if I tripped on the sidewalk and henceforth everyone chanted "trip, trip trip" when I did anything. That really is so unoriginal that I wouldn't even be offended.
Instead of chanting nonsense at an opponent that already has no chance at winning, just focus on the positive and cheer for your own team. Because when it comes down to it, they are all better at basketball then you anyway.
