@[gebobs:41365], yes, elk4521, it is a football reference, it\'s a Vince Lombardi quote. I took in context of this song to mean having decorum when it comes to dealing with death, as he goes on to instruct us not to blame or to say people lose people all the time. Having grace when faced with grief of death, the inevitable end zone. Just like the beginning of the song which references a newly lain sod, def no pitch in hockey, but the sod is covering a grave, not a field of play. \r\n\r\nThe other line about throwing the street performer $2 and asking them to keep playing, not sure, there are always buskers outside of sports games here, maybe it\'s plea, maybe the street performer symbolizes life and his ask for less cryin\' and more tryin\' is a plea for life to be more fair. Like, hey life, keep it coming, but better and less painful if you don\'t mind |
