NightSide - Censorship Or Good Sportsmanship?

BOSTON (CBS) - The Wisconsin Interscholastic Athletic Association (WIAA), the organization that is in charge of school sports within the state, has declared that cheers and chants from fans directed at opposing teams or fans are unsportsmanlike and must not be tolerated. The list of potentially offensive chants includes simple phrases like "airball", "scoreboard", and "fundamentals", among others. Do you think fans at a high school sporting event should be allowed to taunt the other team or opposing fans? Or is the WIAA correct that this type of behavior crosses a line?
