Aerosmith - Pepsi NFL Anthems

As a stand alone song, I thought it was great. The music was solid and the lyrics interesting and inventive. especially the 2 forays into near curse words.
I have 2 problems with it.
1. Its an anthem and anthems are basically sing alongs, and I can't see Gillette rocking to "Legendary Child"
2. The title "Legendary Child". The Patriots are the most team-centric team in the NFL. You can't have an anthem that seems to worship and individual.
Bottom line - A great song, just not a fitting Patriots anthem. Back to the drawing board.
