I guess you can root for your team but only at acceptable levels.

I'll wait for the actual policy rather than relying on a NY Post "exclusive".

NY Post articles aren't famous for being valid.

"The classes are an effort to stem the rising tide of ugly stadium behavior that has included everything from bare-knuckle brawls to lewd Jets fans who screamed obscenities at women until they exposed their breasts in a rude Gate D tradition at the old Giants Stadium."

Sounds like it worked...

SAN FRANCISCO -- The 49ers and the NFL have adopted extraordinary security measures for Sunday’s NFC Championship against the Giants after opposing fans complained of harassment by unruly 49ers faithful last week.

Undercover police will be dressed in Giants’ garb and on the lookout for nasty fans. Giants ticketholders will be handed a card as they enter Candlestick Park with details on how to contact police if they feel threatened. And more security cameras and undercover police officers will be in place to identify abusive fans.

oooohhh great...

I've got an idea!!! Don't let fans attend games. Just have the two teams play in an empty stadium and broadcast it. There. All problems solved.

The Eagles & Raider games are going to have some very empty stadiums. It'll look like a strike/replacement game.

I don't know if it'll work for a Raiders game. They'd need the National Guard to have enough guys to enforce it and all those crewcuts would stick out in Oaktown.

I'd be happy to do an evaluation on Viking fans to determine which ones should be allowed to attend games. I can think of a few players that should have been evaluated too.

Yeah, who wants to get rid of people looking to start fist fights, throw batteries and other foreign objects and other activities that would generally get you arrested in public?

Did it in soccer! Riots in soccer left more than 70 dead, so... no more fans.
