Alex's new favorite game:

Leaaaan to the left!
Leaaaan to the right!
Stand up! Sit down!
Fight fight fight!

I'm reminded of the story about an appointee to Reagan's Justice Department coming to speak at Reed College, and being met by students dressed in cheerleading costumes, chanting:

Leaaaan to the left!
Leaaaan to the right!
Leaaaan to the right!
Leaaaan to the right!
Leaaaan to the right!...

Reed had a phenomenally successful women's rugby team, actually. But of course the college had no actual cheerleaders.

Heck, I'd think that for a women's rugby team, it'd be possible to recruit a large contingent of unofficial cheerleaders.

Reed's women's rugby team was very good. And, to be perfectly frank, rather intimidating.

As an aside, the version of the cheer that I learned at Reed went:

Leaaaan to the left!
Leaaaan to the left!
Leaaaan to the left!

That last was from me. I'm at my office in TU.
