Tuesday Thoughts: "Move Back, You Suck" not worth saving, Florida exceeding expectations

Let us be clear: The Monday night brouhaha that was stirred by the public acknowledgement of Florida banning the Gator Band from playing a tune that has customarily followed penalties and recently been accompanied by chants of "Move back, you suck!" is much ado about very little — and the response to the move by Florida's University Athletic Association is misguided at best.

First: Florida didn't ban "Move Back, You Suck." Florida did ban the band cueing up thousands of fans telling Gators opponents that they "suck" for committing a penalty by playing the Dragnet theme.
