All they need now to supplement Palin is to have Kate Smith sing "God Bless America". Do you remember when she sang it at the Russian game many years ago? The crowd went wild.

As a young NY Islanders fan back in the 70s and 80s, the Flyers games were always the intense ones (beside Ranger games, of course). It took a long time for me to not get hives whenever I heard Kate Smith's rendition.

Went to watch the Flyers @ The Forum in Montreal , think it was 1973. Kate Smith was banned from the building. One of the Flyers was in the penalty box, I think it was Clarke, when this lady walked up to the back of the box and began hitting the hapless Flyer over the head with a cane. The lady was lucky he didn't swing back. Next season the box was better protected.
