Globe article by John Doyle about women's team but it includes a breathy note about somebody we know:

The woman is still hesitating, looking around. She sees what I see – there’s a guy in the corner with a small megaphone and he’s shouting into it. He’s the capo, leading us on. He’s bare-chested, sweat pouring down his skinny, white rib cage. There are always three full plastic glasses of beer beside him. Every now and then he drinks one, in a single gulp. When it’s gone, another one appears, an unseen hand placing it there. Now he takes a breath and shouts into the megaphone, “Again!” And then he starts, we all start, even the woman who hesitated, starts bellowing:
“Oh the Yankees picked a fight in 1812
Oh the Yankees picked a fight in 1812
So we burned their f----n’ White House to the ground
Yeah we burned their f----n’ White House to the ground!”

ha.

longread article. Weird to read about friendly that seems so long ago now. Also odd the constant refererences to us as 'hardcore TFC males'...and implied surprise that we're singing for the women. Yeesh. It's Voyageurs for one, and of course we're singing for them. etc etc. All good anyways, Doyle put a lot of work into that one heh
