... Posted March 14, 2011 Report Posted March 14, 2011 I actually think they're saying Dooooooouug. Yeah, I think that's it, too.
BuffaloSoldier2010 Posted March 14, 2011 Report Posted March 14, 2011 I've been to quite a few games myself this year and cant say i've heard boos for Doug either. I've heard "DEEEEE!!!" "DOUG!!!" and "DOUGIE!!!" but never a boo. definitely possible, but not noticeable in the arena IMO.
Stoner Posted March 14, 2011 Author Report Posted March 14, 2011 I'm happy to hear I am apparently mishearing. But go back to the first post in this thread, from last March, and you will see that John Vogl was hearing boos too.
Eleven Posted March 14, 2011 Report Posted March 14, 2011 I'm happy to hear I am apparently mishearing. But go back to the first post in this thread, from last March, and you will see that John Vogl was hearing boos too. It's "Dooooog." No one has any ill feelings towards the guy. Why would one?
Stoner Posted March 14, 2011 Author Report Posted March 14, 2011 It's "Dooooog." No one has any ill feelings towards the guy. Why would one? Doooooog? Like Doogie Howser? If you google this, you'll get some hits. http://blogs.buffalonews.com/sabres/2007/10/sabres-in-game-.html There was a mention of it in ArtVoice too.

Vogl simply was incorrect. No one freaking boos the guy, for crying out loud. And on edit, yes, like Doogie Howser.
Lanny Posted March 14, 2011 Report Posted March 14, 2011 Henry was horrible. Ingrid lead us to the Stanley Cup Finals in 99. My favorite was this black girl Keisha Adamczyk. She sang it a few times here and there when i had season tickets in the early 2000's. I thought she was real good. I'll trade any anthem singer for this... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=meLpuF9UMvk&feature=fvw How about the guy singing in the background at the 1:00 mark. Hilarious.
Stoner Posted March 14, 2011 Author Report Posted March 14, 2011 Listened again last night. Definite "oo-ing" sound. Boo or Doogie or something. I have to believe, for whatever reason, it's Doogie. There's no way anyone would boo seconds after Rick Martin's moment of silence.
shrader Posted March 14, 2011 Report Posted March 14, 2011 I actually think they're saying Dooooooouug. I was saying boo-urns.
That Aud Smell Posted March 14, 2011 Report Posted March 14, 2011 i love doug. love him. i feel strongly about him singing at any playoff game. that said, what i heard in the arena yesterday did sound a bit like a smattering of boos. could it be that they're calling "dooog"? possibly. but it sounds like some boo's (i would estimate from more than 20, fewer than 100 fans). to a point that PA makes regularly, we are talking about something like .005% (what is that? it's half of a tenth of a percent, or 5 hundredeths thereof -- so, what, a twentieth of a single percentage point? (GUH! math HARD!)) of the assembled crowd. that is easily within the number of complete mouth-breathing a-holes that you will find in any random slice of any population.
spndnchz Posted March 14, 2011 Report Posted March 14, 2011 Dudes not gay, he's got kids. Not too many people have seen this interview with him: http://www.skunkpost....sp?newsId=1944 No one boo's Doug. We all scream "DOUGIE" when he gets introduced. Everyone worries when he doesn't sing. He takes Wed and Sunday's off usually for church commitments.

grinreaper Posted March 14, 2011 Report Posted March 14, 2011 that gives rise to a presumption, but a rebuttable one. (i know several gay guys who've had kids through marriage to women.) cool clip - thanks for sharing. i will take this on faith from you -- if you're among those who're saying something that sounds like "dooog", that's enough for me. thanks for the clarification. Was that intentional?
That Aud Smell Posted March 14, 2011 Report Posted March 14, 2011 Was that intentional? oooof. it was. but i missed (did not intend) the double entendre there (honest).
gregkash Posted March 14, 2011 Report Posted March 14, 2011 If it were me, it'd be the stupid point he does.

He takes Wed and Sunday's off usually for church commitments. I know Doug personally ... he's definitely not gay. He is a great man, great dad, great husband, very committed Christian man (in a solid moral sense, not fundamentalist sense). He probably has more 'manliness' in his left pinky than most guys do in their entire being.
That Aud Smell Posted March 14, 2011 Report Posted March 14, 2011 I know Doug personally. *sigh* at this point, i regret bringing it up. like i said, it's a complete non-issue to me, but i was trying to divine why some tiny fraction of fans would boo him. turns out that's almost certainly a misperception, given chz's confirmation that what i'm hearing are "dooooog's." doug, if you're out there, i'm sorry that this junk ever escaped my keyboard. i'll be deleting my posts at this point.
IKnowPhysics Posted March 14, 2011 Report Posted March 14, 2011 One more vote for people yelling "Dooougie." Never heard Dougie booed. And no anthem singer I've ever seen gets booed unless you're 1990 Rosanne Barr.
Marvelo Posted March 15, 2011 Report Posted March 15, 2011 You need a man with a pompadour, not some whiny girl or baldy.
... Posted March 15, 2011 Report Posted March 15, 2011 Who does he point to anyways? He's pointing to "the people" in the seats - he always does that when he sings "LAND OF THE FREE, AND THE HOME OF THE BRAVE..." implying with his gesture that we (the people in the seats) are the "free" and the "brave".
That Aud Smell Posted March 15, 2011 Report Posted March 15, 2011 You need a man with a pompadour, not some whiny girl or baldy. that is an absolute treasure. so much to love, that i can't even begin to comment. i will allow myself this one thing: he was out in his loafers on a fresh sheet of ice without the benefit of a roll-away carpet.
