Re: How loud will the "Oh" be during the National Anthem next week?
I think it has been lost since the 13 years of losing, but it isn't "Oh," it is "O's!"

That is why the beer is so much sweeter when you can make a bet with a Steelers fan that before every home game at Heinz Field the home crowd stands and sings a song about Baltimore's defense. Not the Ravens' defense, but Baltimore's defense.

Fair enough. I'd say that too.
Call it creative license. ;)

BTW, how about the seven nation army chant in the 4th quarter at new England, I could clearly hear it. I think we're the only team that does that. That chant gets me pumped! How cool would it be to hear that at the super bowl, you know when " the hays in the barn". Man ooohh Man this going to be good! - Gonz

Fuck 'em!!!! While I am not allowed to yell "O" during the anthem, I thoroughly enjoy hearing it, especially at away games.

It was clear as day in NE at the AFCCG. Represent folks.

To those who do not know, and to bolster Strange Bru's arguement, the original title of the Star Spangled Banner is "Defence of Fort McHenry" .
