One interferes with the game. One doesn't. Not a hard lesson to figure out.

And as for the "taking a stand" comments made earlier...good grief. Punishing the Coach/Team for the actions of a group of fans that the Coach has no immediate control over does not send a message, take a stand, make a point...you get the idea.

Having game mgt. remove the people doing the chant, and the school carry out further discipline sends a message to the ones actually involved in the chant...and according to the article, that is what has been done.
