I get goosebumps every time I attend a game and the Thunderstorm guys swoop in.

I say "guys" referring to "you all" or "all of them".... as most people from the western US do.

Although, I'm not sure I need to explain my phrasing as "That lady and man" sounds perfectly awkward.

Glad you appreciated the video.

I do say 'you guys' at times, but more likely 'you all' to avoid vacuous criticism like what you just got. But certainly never y'all. It's an inherent problem with our modern english language. Many other languages (most notably Spanish) have gender built into their nouns and possession into their verbs. In such languages, it is perfectly understood that a masculine plural naturally includes females when present without any sexist inference.

The only down side about this game is it will be in New Jersey. New Jersey!!! That's just wrong. Like the Red Sox winning the World Series. It's just unnatural.
