What Sporting Club May Become...
We love to speculate about the future of Sporting Club since the possible combinations of sports is like a mixed up Rubik's Cube that only Soony Saad could solve.

Tweetreach stats:74,833 people reached by 501 tweets from 32 Twitterers. Together we created 491,682 impressions about Sporting Kansas City. Granted @KrisColvin is a big chunk of that with her thousands of followers, but together we can make a big impression that no other MLS supporters are doing. And some of you may argue that for one hour this pollutes your Twitter stream with things you do not care about, but remember there are things besides Twitter you can do for an hour... Also most people find they gain followers after participating in multiple chats. If you contribute positively you will find that for the rest of the week you have more people to chat with. In addition when you ever meet any of these people offline you will actually feel like you kind of know them!
First Heard at a Sporting KC game: Opening night at LIVESTRONG park against Chicago, June 9th, 2011. Not sure if this dates back to Wizards days.
Based off of: Unknown.
History: The earliest known mention of the chant is 1994 in Syracuse, NY in 1994 at Bishop Ludden High School. The first person credited with origination is Jay Rodriguez in 1998 at the Naval Academy. One of the commenters below (Mid'05) noted that they recall hearing it sometime between 2001 and 2004. Another Midshipman commenter noted originating it and was class of 2003. You may see some reports of a later origination at the Naval Academy in 2003, because the team apparently didn't do to well in the interval years and no one had a reason to believe that Navy would win.
Associated movement: Usually jumping in place (pogo-ing) once you get to the final line. Others have pumped their fist (or two) in the air with each crowd response. Lyrics: (Call and Response)
Leader: I
Crowd: I
Leader: I believe
Crowd: I believe
Leader: I believe that
Crowd: I believe that
Leader: I believe that we
Crowd: I believe that we
Leader: I believe that we will win!
Crowd: I believe that we will win!
(until crowd starts to quiet)
(Often restarted after fade out maybe 2 or 3 times max)
When you'll hear it: Maybe late in the first half if still scoreless, usually after a goal that gives us a lead, rarely after a goal that gets us equal. Possibly late in the game.
Here is the link to the official chant sheet for the Cauldron, the main supporters group for Sporting Kansas City. Hopefully they will have their website up soon, so you can go right to the source!
Of the chants that are on the official chant sheet there are some chants that are not included and some chants that I have not heard all year while sitting in Section 102 (outside the Cauldron).
(Ed. note) Please note that strong language is used in some of the chants at the games. I write the lyrics here not to promote nor condone unified public swearing, but it is because you will hear it at a game. In 2012, there will be an effort to get the South Stand chanting as well, but given the younger demographic there, we will be considerate and modify any lyrics to remove swearing. If you have a problem with the swearing in any of these chants talk to the the club or the Cauldron leadership. I'm just reporting what you will hear, I'm not in charge of the chants.
