How about before running your mouths and ruining a a program that I like to watch and listen to, learn some English and stop sounding like your praying for rain? It sounds like they should have rebulit the schools in New Orleans bfore they rebuilt the Superdome. Anybody who watched the telecast of MNF knows what I'm talking about.

I'm talking about the rain chant that the people were yelling outside of the Superdome during Monday Night Countdown on ESPN. I can't wait until they go back to the studio.

I don't care if they chant it. I just don't want to hear it while I'm trying to watch my show. They have to know that there are people working there. Also by yelling like that they are not doing much for the their image to the rest of the world. People in New Orleans might talk like that, but Madison Avenue and all the Fortune Five- Hundred companies that Nagin was trying to pursuade to invest in New Orleans does not. By the way, for those that saw it necessary to critique some of the words in my question, you overlooked the fact that I also mispelled "rebuilt."

Who you? Who you? Who you are gonna hate on them Saints?
Come on, man, lighten up. It's kind of a cool little chant, and it's a little self-deprecating when you consider it started around the time they achieved their first winning season (late '80s).
It's also classic New Orleans in that it's such a "bayou" sounding phrase.
In Green Bay, we'd have to say something like, "Hey der, Ho' der, who you think's gonna beat our Packerce?"

i quite imagine you do not pay adequate interest to NFL football if any of you imagine that the Chargers or the Patriots will knock off the Bengals. no longer likely to ensue. The Colts will be hard, it really is for confident, they continually are and from the seems of what surpassed off to Jacksonville, this year will be no diverse. yet when I were a Bengal fan, i'd positioned away the champagne for now, you've a lengthy and confusing season in an fairly hard branch. you should are starting to be each and every of the "whoopie, rah, rah," out of your structures very last season! convinced, you've a rattling strong crew and think ofyou've got were given the flair to pass far, yet you surely ought to "seem after business enterprise" first! Pittburgh is down, yet they don't seem out, no longer through a lengthy shot! Even Cleveland can damage each and every body in the journey that they get advise adequate. If I were you, instead of asking stupid questions like: "Who dey imagine gonna beat dem bengals?" If I were you, i'd merely pucker up my anus and take a strong, lengthy, quiet seem down the Interstate interior the direction of Baltimore..........

Who Dey? started when the Bengals went to super bowl in the late 80's it's getting old fast. Just because they can win A few games here and there. They need to keep their players out of jail.

I think YOU need to learn some proper English. How about you check what you type up. There's a couple of 3rd grader grammar mistakes. (you're praying NOT your praying, missing an E on bfore, i'm NOT I'm ) "WHO DEY?" is just slang so chill out.

It's actually partly due to the Creole accent of the area where "who are they" becomes "who dey." Just a little local flavor on there.

Erv's right. Get your own spelling right first. And dialect aside, they're probably purposly mis-pronouncing it. They most likely robbed it from the Bengals (many people do---hell, I do and I live in San Diego).

I grew up down south and I have heard this since the 70's. Since you cannot spell before, you cannot complain too much.

Where are you from? Do you have any colloquial sayings in your area that you live in?
Go soak your head in the toilet bowl and see how well you talk with do-do in your mouth.
