Something more along the lines of "I really don't like that song."

In prior discussions I thought the general consensus was that the list of final choices sucked. I mean ... the final selection sucked too. I'm shocked I tell you. Shocked.

ya know all of our elections lately seem to suck along those same lines... We need a new way to get down to the finalists... It would be nice to vote for something without holding your nose!
 
*laughing* Damn, y'all are bored!

Here's the very small portion of that long song you are actually ever going to hear in the arena:

...North Carolina! c'mon and raise up
Take your shirt off, twist it 'round yo' hand
Spin it like a helicopter
North Carolina! c'mon and raise up
This one's for you, uh-huh, this one's for who?
Us, us, us; yes sir!
Who am I?...

As per this clip from the org.

Nothing offensive there...except for the "take your shirt off" part that some may actually be inspired to do.
 
Here's where it could go "wrong" (but I personally think would be perhaps the coolest thing ever).

And that is if the crowd would pick up on what follows the "Who am I?" phrase (where the org clip currently ends) in the song.

Because what follows is "Petey Pab, mother****er!".

Substitute instead the name of the player that just scored and...well...I'm not going to get my hopes up.

But that would be a pretty awesome crowd call-and-response just as the arena audio clip cut off.

"Svetchnikov, mother****er!" or "Aho, mother****er!"

*laughing* But, let's face it. We're just not that cool.

Still...talk about taunting the opposing fans...a boy can dream.
 
guy on twitter says Canes will have 92 points this season based on 10,000 simulations. Don't know what stats or formulas he uses. 92 would be 15th best in NHL. Canes stats guy Eric Tulsky follows the guy
 
now that idea, I like!

Before anybody gets impressed with that, 92 points would put Carolina in EXACTLY the same position in the East where they finished last season.

Oh, and simulation projections at this stage of the off season are pointless.
 
surprised it was as high as 92 pts . He must be using Darling's career stats rather than just last year. Same for Mrazek . I guess for rookies he must be doing some conversion of their junior or AHL stats which is not easy to do.
 
I suspect everyone at least is bringing Darling and Mrazek combined to a .905 Sv% (which still sucks). Add in what should be a better D and I don't think 92 points is an unreasonable guess. You get .910 combined from those 2 and the rookies deliver we are better than that...again that 'lot of faith in the rookies and the goalies issue.....'.

Pardon another "get off my lawn" moment from me, but I can't think of too many things that would make me give up my tickets quicker than if that caught on in a big way.... and I've already read someone on Twitter encouraging just that.
:nono

I like it! But it's still probably a bad idea. I'd rather us just yell "Raise Up" or "Woo Hoo" whateves. I've only heard the song a few times, 15 years ago. I'm not really sure how it follows and what the pacing in the clip will be. (I know it's available, but I want to hear it in its' context with the crowd and all)

I also like the idea of after the song have Johnny come on the Jumbo and say "Hey, Hey, what do you say?" And the crowd could say something like "Go Canes", "Raise Up", "Woooooooo" I dunno, I'm a big picture guy, you work out the details.
 
Count me in as one of those who hates the new goal song. But maybe they feel having a song with offensive lyrics will bring more offense.
