Giving 4 points is almost as crazy as the Patriots giving 3 in the Denver debacle
Carolina has scored what ... 80+ points in the last 2 games.
They won't need 7 turnovers to saddle the Broncos
Denver offense is gonna need all the leftover HGH.

Yes, I've gone to Carolina in my mind.............................
Ever hear these lyrics from Charlie Daniels, In America:
From The Sound up in Long Island
Out to San Francisco Bay
And everything that's in between them is our own
And we may have done a little bit
Of fightin' amongst ourselves
But you outside people best leave us alone
'Cause we'll all stick together
And you can take that to the bank
That's the cowboys and the hippies
And the rebels and the yanks You just go and lay your hand
On a Pittsburgh Steelers' fan
And I think you're gonna finally understand

now THAT is a classic and a quite influential song in modern US history... and yep the steelers and more so pittsburgh and the steel industry did symbolize america at one time... been along time though...
Content[edit]
The song was a reaction to the varying difficult issues facing America in the late 1970s – the fallout from the Watergate scandal, the simultaneous double-digit inflation, unemployment, and prime interest rates (leading to the misery index), and the 1979-1981 Iran Hostage Crisis.
Notwithstanding all the problems America was facing, the song described a patriotic, united America which would overcome the obstacles and return to its greatness ("we'll all stick together and you can take that to the bank / That's the cowboys and the hippies and the rebels and the yanks").
The song experienced a revival following the September 11 attacks, when it was floated around the Internet as "F*** Bin Laden."
Background and writing[edit]
The line, "Just go and lay your hand on a Pittsburgh Steelers fan" stems from Daniels' feeling that the people in Pittsburgh are "The salt of the earth, the finest, just the greatest people. The strength of America." He says, "I've gone to ball games at different places, but I've always felt the Pittsburgh Steelers fans, especially in the old stadium - I mean, they're steel workers and they're good old guys with blisters, or calluses on their hands. The strength of America is not in Washington, D.C., It's in our people, it's on the farms, in the factories. It's the people out here that make this country work. The truck drivers, the farmers. And these people, that's what they were, and I just felt like if you want to go to war, let me take some of these guys with me. Go lay your hand on a Pittsburgh Steelers fan, and you're gonna find out what American anger is, because it's the kind of people they are."
that song still hits home for me...

Thanks for the huge font lyrics. I read those when I posted the link.
Anyone can write about a city desperately clinging to yesteryear.

Charlie Daniels hails from Carolina.
Charlie was born North Carolina but lives, and considers himself from Tennessee, and he loves the Burgh.
By the way, we don't need no song about us, especially one from some far left radical socialist from Martha's Vineyard like James Taylor.
