#1 And yet the 'Suicide Bomber' of the game was named Rex!

#2 Something other than boos. Muhammed's first name is Muhsin, pronounced "Mooooooooooosin" by your average losing Bears fan. Go Colts!

#3 SA1065 is right - they yell "Moose" when he makes a play.

#4 They were yelling Moooooo for Muhsin.

Just like Mooooo for movers.

#5 They were discussing this over at Hot Air, but that article has over two hundred comments, so you'll have to do a find on "boo". Short answer is the same that Slinesing Angomolet1065 and Spot gave.

But you weren't hallucinating, if it's any comfort.

#6 When Mike Mussina pitched for the O's, you'd hear a lot of Mooooooooos too.

#7 Bears fans would have liked to hear a lot more "Mooing" and it usually follows any play better than a first down that Mushin is involved in.

#8 Gosh, and to hear concern like this at RB. It would just warm the left's hearts. LOL

#9 When Bledsoe was up here, he used to think it was "Dreeeeeewwwwwww".
Actually, it was "Booooooooooooo".
I think he had it figured out by the time he left Buffalo...

#10 Being a Panther's fan, I can confirm, that they are saying MOOOOSE. I miss Mushin being a Panther. A good player and a genuinely good guy. My dad asked if he was a Muslim last night, I don't know, but it seems the NFL superstar lifestyle is the antithesis of a muslim lifestyle so I would guess not. If he is, I bet it's in name only. Kind of like, I'm a catholic, but haven't been to a mass in years.

#11 There's always been a few players with names or nicknames like this that may appear to be getting booed, but the crowd is chanting "Moose", "Deuce" or even "Foo" (that last bit for Fuamatu-Ma'afala).

The only time you can be sure the crowd is actually booing is when Terrell Owens is involved. :-)

#12 I remember Baltimore Orioles fans chanting "BOOOOOG" when Boog Powell came to bat.

I kinda like Moooose! He's a good player, and appears not to suffer from Terrell Owens' Disease. He's been in two Super Bowls, and his team lost both times--hope he's not jinxed.
