If Bands Sponsored NFL Teams: The NFC

Page 2 of 2

NFC SOUTH

Atlanta Falcons: OutKast The Atlanta music scene has always been rich in just about every genre, but to me, the ATLiens are Atlanta.

Carolina Panthers: Hootie and the Blowfish In truth, I feel bad for doing this to Carolina fans, but Hootie was seriously South Carolina's most famous and successful contribution to the music world. At least they've got Cam Newton?

Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Deicide Really, the only thing funnier and more badass than Job for a Cowboy playing Cardinals games is Tampa band Deicide scaring the shit out of Tampa Bay's 80+ year old Floridian fanbase.

New Orleans Saints: Down From the imagery to the lyrics, former Pantera front man Phil Anselmo's supergroup Down screams Louisiana pride.

NFC WEST

Arizona Cardinals: Job for a Cowboy Though Job for a Cowboy are from Glendale, it might have been more appropriate to go with Jordin Sparks, who sang the National Anthem at Super Bowl XLII and is Arizona's most famous musical export these days. More appropriate, maybe, but definitely less badass than hearing "Entombment of a Machine" at Cardinals games.

Los Angeles Rams: Snoop Dogg Snoop Dogg is an absolute representation of L.A. and the Cali lifestyle, so I felt like he would be absolutely perfect for-- this just in, the Rams moved to St. Louis in 1995. Whoops. Boy, I really hope somebody got fired for that blunder.

San Francisco 49ers: Primus Honestly, the San Francisco music scene is so rich, it was almost impossible to pick a band out of all of them to represent their hometown team. Therefore I went with the weirdest Bay Area residents of all, just for the sake of entertainment.

Seattle Seahawks: Kanye West Your Super Bowl champions, and maybe the most hated team in America today by anyone outside of Washington state, bandwagoners excluded. Kanye West is the perfect fit for this team as he's insanely talented, crazy arrogant and so, so very hateable.
