Attention NFL Fans...
Edited on Mon Nov-29-04 06:44 PM by Jack_Dawson
Is there a better NFL song than this?

You know there isn't.

But, if you honestly think there is, please post.

1. It comes from the era of disco...
Dan Fouts, Air Coryelle and such. I like it when Chris Berman and Tom Jackson sing it on the Primetime show on ESPN. I like the song.

4. Berman and Jackson crack me up every time
I tape PRIMETIME for that reason alone.

2. even a green-blooded
Philadelphia Eagles fan has to admit that the Chargers song is much better than the Eagles Victory Song.

But the Eagles are a much better football team than the Chargers, so we aren't too worried about the fight songs. ;-)

3. You sure about that?
Methinks the AFC is much more competitive than that mess y'all compete in.

7. Yes, I'm sure.
Well, they do score a lot of points over there in the AFC. I guess that means the AFC is better. *rolls eyes*

p.s. The Chargers recently picked Clinton Hart up, dropping Welkins to make room. Welkins was good, and he's made the hightlights since he left, but you got gold in Hart, and someday you'll say: raggedcompany was right, this kid is good.

Do you have another? I'd like to hear it.

14. This green blooded fan hates cheesy disco style songs.
Fly Eagles Fly is far superior and is in the traditional football fight song style.

15. Fly Eagles Fly is TERRIBLE!
I just gave it a listen. The Chargers song RULEZ!!! I think you're missing the point w/ the Chargers song. It's so bad it's great!

20. I never hear Charger fans singing anything at games.
Do you actually use this song or is this a joke or what?

70,000 people singing the fight song is a great experience.

5. Oh wow, a blast back to 1977...
Makes "Skol Vikings" look like a piece of crap.

Seriously, I like that Chargers song.

17. Love ya Blue?
LOL! I remember my sister from Houston singing that at family reunions just to drive my brother (Steeler fan) and brother-in-law (Cowboy fan) crazy.

12. Fly Eagles Fly!
That sounds like a bad 70's disco song. We have a real football style fight song.

http://trumbore.com/eagles/movies/fightsong_vocal.mp3


Fly Eagles Fly!
On The Road to Victory!
Fight Eagles Fight!
Score a Touchdown 1..2..3!
Hit Em Low!
Hit Em High!
And Watch Our Eagles Fly! (This is improvised to watch the opponent die on occasion.)
Fly Eagles Fly!
On The Road To Victory!!

E-A-G-L-E-S EAGLES!!!
