mmejia Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 Houston has/had GO GO ASTROS as their fight song. It was terrible. Breathing Orange Fire!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kramerica Industries Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 It's not really a fight song, but the Braves warrior chant sucks for two equal reasons:1) It's completely unoriginal. They ripped it from a collegiate football team.2) The collegiate football team they ripped it from is Florida State.Obviously #2 is biased from my POV, but either way, it's not clever, amusing, or fearful. And the act is even worse with those foam tomahawks they hand to fans for important games (although I faintly recall having one of those things when I was in my younger years - I cannot remember what happened to it).

ElwoodCuse Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 I don't know if they still use it, but the Pirates introduced this song when they opened PNC Park in 2001: They also used an instrumental version to open radio broadcasts back when I was a Pitt student.They still use it, but there's an older one that they don't. it went something like "this is a Pirates town" but I can't find it anywhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Admiral Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 It's not really a fight song, but the Braves warrior chant sucksFALSE. The war chant is awesome. Then again, I romanticize pretty much anything associated with the glory days of the Braves on TBS because Man That's Just Baseball Man.I liked the time the Braves won a game that the Cubs needed to clinch the division, and when the score came up, everyone at Wrigley did the war chant. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't really call that "ripping it off." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NatsFan2004 Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 It is not the worst song for the Nationals Story time.Before the Nationals came to town, there were a few rallies in support of the new ballpark project that would bring the Expos to DC. At one of these events, former PA announcer Charlie Brotman took the stage and in addressing the crowd, launched into an acapella version of the self-written "Nuts About The Nats". I think he really thought it would get everyone fired up and explode in applause. Instead, people looked around the room uncomfortably for about 2 minutes, waiting for the auditory awkwardness to end. That was followed by some tepid clapping. I felt bad for the guy because he clearly put his heart into the thing, but it really was truly horrendous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I loved that one though. You're right that they still use it. During TV broadcasts though, you hear this more often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Admiral Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 The Cubs used to open their radio broadcasts with this. They replaced it with an aw-yeah-rawkin' rendition of "Take Me Out to the Ballgame," which they in turn replaced with like I dunno :censored:in' OAR or something. They used it in 2004, the summer after I graduated from high school and a time of ingesting a great deal of Cubs radio, so it gives me the warm and fuzzies big time. I know it's really hokey, but that's the fun. I mean, I can't be a badass all the time. The only thing that would make it better would be if it went like the opening of the Ned Flanders short subject:Singer: Everybody loves the Cubs, ev-ry-body loves the Cubs....Sox fan: NOT ME.Singer: Everybody who counts loves the Cubs... ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DC in Da House w/o a Doubt Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 The Nationals have one that they stopped playing shortly after they introduced it, but it's so horrendously god-awful that I refuse to link you to it. If you want to hear it that badly, you're more than welcome to seek it out yourself.They still play Nuts About The Nats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camly Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 My first experience as a sports fan of one of my teams in the postseason was the 1996 Cardinals NL Central Championship.We got to hear this gem on the radio everyday for a few months (not a fight song, but terrible): That is painful!
