This is retched

I guess the time spent listening to CCR and Led Zepplin during the 80’s saved me from this

the best song from an 80’s movie -

that's great...

I’ve seen this movie once. I’ve watched this scene many many times for the laughs. Truly cheesy…Or funky or something.

Adam,

I respect your baseball brain, which apparently has grown so big that it has crowded out any room for musical taste.

...and curse Sir Sidney Ponson, he was such a stupid git.

To be clear...

...I thought this song was remarkable for its awfulness back when it first came out, and have maintained that opinion ever since.

That was pretty much my take...

...the first time I heard this song…

I figured

you were being a bit tongue in cheek. But I still haven’t forgotten that remark about Prince in the last podcast…

Dammit Adam.

You owe me one minute of my life back. I mitigated my damages by turning the song off at that point. Please immediately refund 1 minute’s worth of my subscription fee. I accept cash.

That song is at least listenable.

But the video must be avoided at all costs.

I still remember the first time I saw that video

WHA??? HE’S WHITE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!?????

My friend had that song on a CD

He had 4 12’s in his car, so it was pretty intense. Its funny because if you have subs it just drowns out the rest of the song so you really never hear it. Thats how it has survived this long.

Now when I think about it, 4 12’s pretty much drowns out every single song that he ever played.

Sully baseball wonders what would have happened in 1996

I wrote this piece last year about what could have happened if the 1996 playoffs ended differently.

Would love to hear Rangers fans POV

If ever a thread needed to be hikacked, its this one

but that is one memory I didn’t want to relive…

The 1998 and 1999 rangers were better, but the Yankees weren’t going to be beaten. That 1996 Ranger team was probably best situated to go to the World Series. Very, very sad series. Only Juan Gone was watchable…

Question?

Would i be better off going to OKC or Frisco for a minor league game tomorrow night. Either city is 2 hrs away. Anyone have an idea who is starting for the Redhawks tomorrow.

Do I get a prize

for actually knowing this song and remembering the chorus?

Or do I deserve a $3 shot instead?
