You get all the everything. Give the drunks their moment. One more reason I appreciate hockey players. That scene wouldn't play out in an NHL arena. I chuckled. It's a fair observation (or at least not unfair), and funny. Individualized goal songs? Jumbotron tributes to a returning hockey player? The administration, progress of NFL games and NHL games are very different, to be sure. I don't think there's a comparable moment in an NHL game when compared with that one lengthy media timeout that occurs in the NFL near the start of the 4th quarter -- typically with the teams standing on the field waiting for the game to resume.

As for the singers in the stands (plenty of sober ones), everyone around me was delighted to see the players vibing and apparently singing along.

Geez, my reading comprehension has gone to *****. My own take is that at the end of the day the most of the players are young men who want to be/are having fun. We’ve lost a lot of that in sports. Less so in hockey, but still apparent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

None of this is surprising. Football has replaced church and these people were singing a hymn in honor of the god of consumerism. This reminds me of how some hockey schools would hand out sheets with all their chants. It’s like they had the whole game scripted out ahead of time. I wanted spontaneous nonsense, like chanting “safety school” towards Harvard or “overrated” directed at the worst team in the country.

Night Train Posted September 26 Report Share Posted September 26 Sorry for getting back on topic 🙄 but it looks like rain for the Sunday night game in Baltimore. Good for the home team with Henry getting the ball a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my opinion, Born Slippy is the better track, especially if you recite the closing monologue over it. Hey Bills: choose the compact disc and electrical tin opener. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know a few others did it too. “Here is a list of exactly how you are required to act during this game.” It turns everyone into robots. Now that’s not to say that the Bills experience is a bunch of robots. I haven’t been there in ages but massive quantities of alcohol don’t typically work well with robots. Well, except this guy: 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love a clockwork orange and Trainspotting. However I think it took me 3 or 4 viewings to know what the F they were saying in Trainspotting with that Glasgow Broge 😂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
