Booing on all the boo birds

Do you mind doing me a favor?
It’s small and it’s not going to cost you any money. I’m about to criticize the boo birds at sports events and, if you don’t agree with me, please just don’t come up with that lame defense that you bought the right to boo when you paid for your ticket.
Yes, you are legally and constitutionally correct but you also lack class, and that can’t be purchased.
When quarterback John Skelton was writhing in pain Sunday at the Arizona Cardinals’ game, Kevin Kolb frantically began to warm up. It was the fourth quarter, we were behind with little time left and Kolb, whose preseason had been almost as bad as his reviews by the media, was going in to play quarterback for the Cardinals. As he took the field a surprising number of fans booed him.
This wasn’t Oakland where they punch nuns in the face. This was home, where the Arizona Cardinals play.
I know ‘boo’ is the first part of the word booze but that’s no excuse.
Do you boo people at your office whose work you don’t approve of? The stadium is Kevin Kolb’s office.
Oh, and by the way, he won the game.
