Fitting, this is on Deadspin today. The entire history of how the song became a sports anthem. Oddly enough, it claims the first American team to pick the idea up from soccer was Penn State. |

I don't have a problem with fans doing group cheers. "J-E-T-S JETS JETS JETS." "That's a Kansas City Chiefs FIRST DOWN." "DE-FENSE *bum bum*" They all cheer on the team. WTF does singing that riff from Seven Nation Army do? |

It is a game. It is fun. It is a shared experience. In the NFL world it is also theirs uniquely.
