Re: "We Are the Champions" and GP?
It is one line you can barely hear over the applause. It's an American sports tradition. No one actually gets offended. Calm down. Yes, there is a contradiction, but honestly, everyone gets the tradition of it and no teams are going over to the folks who didn't win and berating them because of a Queen song. FIRST has always enforced a wonderful attitude of gracious professionalism, and if someone forgoes this attitude because Freddie Mercury made one line of a now ceremonial song slightly against our policy, our concern should be more about realizing we're not talking up the policy more.
