Holy Christ!! Maybe if we only saw the game in scratchy b&w film and it took place in an old west saloon that song would work. :shock:

Bergie is a Sweed and even he thinks it's gay.

I wonder if they had him wear some of Tom Brady's Uggs while shooting that.

On a related note, the Sedin twins asked Bergie if there was a full length version available.

I'm not even sure where to begin. We need to sign the Blues marketing team up for the foreign legion or something. Or just have goon tell them to GTFO.

The only way they save face on this is they start to play up the 'cheese' factor. If they take this seriously........we're talking EPIC FAIL!

We need an organized effort to put an end to this. If enough people yell (Frank) Detroit every time they play it, they will stop.

Why does this song follow me around wherever I go?

First it was the White Sox in '05, now it's the Blues. Of course, when this was the White Sox slogan they won the World Series so.....

Oh god... I hate Journey, I hate the Wings, and I hate this pussy song shit. I saw it on TV yesterday at a bar and all I could do was shake my head while people who don't follow the Blues just laughed. Embarrassing.

We should write letters to the marketing department. Seriously.

I admit, I don't HATE the song by itself, but it's been overused way too much. Can't they come up with a fresh, new, more progressive campaign than this? The team has more going for it than what this reflects, which is, "we have never won a championship, but don't stop believing in us."

Let's just highlight the lack of winning, that is genius...
