I understand having bands at the high school andcollegelevel - they are extensions of the schools music program and active students of the school. It's not just about pumping up the crowd, it's also about showing something more than pure athletics for the school or university. Bands at the pro level would just be paid musicians without any "real" connection to the team. Fight music or theme songs wouldn't be a horrible idea, as long as they were done properly.

no most people grow out of that by high school. I don't understand why they still have it at colleges. Very child-like I would say.
I disagree with fight songs entirely. Then again, being from Oklahoma and despising my appointed 'home turf', I don't have alot to go on. Some schools DO have cool fight songs, but I have to say if I hear "Boomer Sooner" one more time, I'll probably swallow the barrel of my 9mm. They play fight songs too often, "Boomer Loser" (as I affectionately refer to it) gets played if the head coach so much as sneezes, it's really pretty pathetic.
yea
that would defenatly bring more fans, teams having their own personal culture of fight songs, phrases, or bands would greatly improve the fan participation
Washington does have a band and fight song. Deceased owner George Preston Marshall wrote the fight song. It starts out, correct me if I am wrong,

Hail to the Redskins, hail victory, Braves on the warpath, fight for old D.C.

Don't know of any others. Before the Colts left Baltimore, the Colts band and fight song were big time.

Also, nothing like hearing,

I'm a Jay, Jay, Jay, Jayhawk from Kansas on the Kaw.
LMAO:):).....that is freakin halarious...it would be very funny and in a way pretty cool but that will most likely never happen. I wouldnt care either way if it did or not and to be honest i wouldnt mind if it did. Band members could get paid to go pro even. John Ts answer is even more halarious then your question. Stallions theory of NFL socialism states that individuality chreates a sound intricate cycle of creativity amd implementation thus allowing NFL teams to have bands and fight songs that would in the long run bring out more NFL fans.
The Redskins are the only NFL team that has a personal band. They have a fight song too, but many other teams do as well.
John T. smoke another doobie and find another website to copy and paste.
maybe detroit lions should have ted nugent come in and play--cat scratch fever ---at all the home games while the cheerleaders strut their stuf,,,hehe.
HS and College Bands are a part of tradition. Alumni and Fans at those games will cheer for the Band. They may not care for the band, but they will cheer for the schools tradition that the Band represents. In HS and College its based on tradition. In pro sports, there is very little tradition anymore due to trades. 20 years ago this would have been a novel idea, because players played for a given team for 10+ years and truly built a home there. Now, players are shipped around to fit a salary cap, so the sense of tradition is less important in a pro atmosphere. Although this could be a nifty idea, the chances of it happening are mighty slim.
I think the NFL should have trampolines randomly scattered around the feild.
I would love that! But it would never work. The NFL team owners would never put a band in seats they could be selling to fans.
I'm not a football fan but that does sound awsome never know I might start watching football if they had that
NO
Transcendentalism was a movement created to revolutionize the thought and the role of the individual in their society. The philosophers who established transcendentalism believed that the role of the individual was becoming non-existent, due to the influence of society at the time. In Ralph Waldo Emerson’s, “Self-Reliance”, and Walt Whitman’s, “I Hear America Singing”, society creates the philosophies contained in the literature.

The philosophy in Emerson’s “Self reliance” is influenced by society. In the literature Emerson gives examples of society’s behavior. He writes, “…envy is ignorance; that imitation is suicide”, which reveals society’s manners. He was influenced by the acts of individuals in society who strive to be like other people. These individuals live their lives by the standards placed on them by society, and model their own behavior after other individuals. Emerson resolves his quest in defining the individual when he writes, “Trust thyself: every heart vibrates to that iron string.” Through his words he successfully defines the fundamental ideas of transcendentalism. He reveals that it is better to believe in one’s individual heart than to believe in the heart of the other individuals of society. Emerson writes his literature in order to distinguish between the differences in the mind of an individual versus the mind of all the individuals in society. These differences conclude with the idea that trusting oneself is entirely more important than giving in to the beliefs of those around you. The behavior of society creates the philosophy contained in Emerson’s “Self Reliance”.

The philosophy found in Whitman’s “I Hear America Singing” is dictated by society. Whitman gives various examples of occupations in American Society, such as carpentry, masonry, and motherhood. The mood that he creates based on his depiction of each of the individuals singing their song, reveals how he defines the individual. Whitman shows that society defines the individual by the trade in which they work. He gives the idea that through society individuals are what they do at work. Societies definition of the individual is based on their trade not who they truly are. Whitman succeeds in expressing the fundamental ideas of transcendentalism by his own definition of the society in which individuals live. He gives the idea that an individual makes who they truly are at heart, and that without the individual, society cannot exist. The society has influenced him in that he feels it focuses too much on the actual trade described, instead of the individuals that make up those trades. The beliefs of society attributed to the philosophy found in Whitman’s “I Hear America Singing”.

The role of transcendentalism was to more truly define the individual, and the role one must play in society. The philosophers of transcendentalism and their work, such as Emerson’ s “Self-Reliance”, and Walt Whitman’s, “I Hear America Singing”, were clearly influenced by the beliefs of society at the time.
