I guess there's nothing wrong with your towel waving tradition.

It's just that calling them "terrible" towels sounds so dopey. I mean what makes them so terrible?

not for nothing....but after how many years of losing do you decide to retire those silly towels. Those gimmicks make them look like chumps.

Save those silly things for the newer yahoo teams like Tampa Bay. Just play football.

Those terrible towels are good for crying in though.

Myron Cope is credited by many with the idea and name. There is no way in hell those towels ever get replaced, like i said it's our heritage and tradition. Like it or not, our fans are all about our history and tradition. Our orginization follows suit.

How about a bag of rocks. It cost less and hurts just as much. How about green knives or if Brook Bollinger starts we can bring in bags of boulders.

Noisemakers are for pansy-ass LA fans. Whoo! Go Angels! Go Rally Monkey! Clap Thunderstixx!

Let us scream and yell.

Don't forget acoustics means a lot. At Giants Stadium, at least 10-15k fans are underneath cantilevered overhangs, so their cheering gets lost.

i could definitely think of the most annoying thing we could carry.... not only would it be annoying to the opposing team, but we might have a mass suicide in the stands as well....... Whistles!!

I used to work at a party place for children .... we never gave the whistles out until the kids were on the way out the door... poor poor parents.

i mentioned that, i really like that one

but seriously, JET KAZOOS. there is def. nobody in the NFL that would match that. That's hilarious. They could just sell them for a couple of bucks.

NOW IM THE KAZOO MAN!!!

I think Kazoos are a cool idea. How annoying would that sound with 78,000 kazoos on 3rd down, opposing qb's wouldn't be heard at all.

Green towels also sound pretty cool.

We need something, it's been way too long since they have given out cool stuff and we need something that defines us.

Since we will be using the shotgun next year, let's all bring shotguns to the game and shoot them off as the opposing team is about to snap the ball. If they score anyway, we can just shoot the other team.

ok forget the change, it's in the past

let's work on something safe but as annoying and loud. I'm still down with the kazoos. It's a perfect mix of safety, originality, annoyingness, small size, and loudness.
