I never expected to fall in love with English football in my 50s. Yet here we are.
A couple of years ago, I started following Arsenal FC. What began as casual curiosity turned into waking up early on weekends, structuring Saturdays around matches, and finding my way to our local Arsenal supporters' bar.
What's struck me most about Premier League culture isn't just the football. It's the songs.
Every player has one. Every meaningful moment has one. The supporters don’t just watch the match; they participate in it. One chant starts in the corner, another picks up across the room, and suddenly the whole bar is singing in unison for a defender, a winger, or the club's newest star.
It's joyful. Tribal. Loud. Completely unlike anything in American sports culture.
So I decided to see what would happen if I asked ChatGPT to write a football song about me.
The result was better than it had any right to be.

He tells you the risk and the move you should make,
Then wins the damn case while plaintiffs pump their brakes.
From breweries to boardrooms they all sing his name:
OH, JON HYMAN, HE MAKES HR GREAT AGAIN!

Come on you Gunners!!!
