At-Bat Songs for the AL. Incomplete and incorrect at points, but man, I have never come closer to actually liking Dan Wilson than, well, he comes out to Salt-and-Pepa ( Read more... )

Man, okay. This just proves to me that the Red Sox are, in their secret hearts of hearts, a huge group of white boy rednecks. It's ridiculous. And bitch, come on. How can you slam Incubus in one breath -- hello, Brandon Boyd's raging hotness? Have you never experienced it? Make Yourself was actually a decent cd -- and then admit to liking Three Doors Down? Carbon-copy cardboard rock that sounds exactly like everything else that was on the radio four years ago?

Oh, the pain of it all.

Mulder should come out to Prodigy's Smack Your Bitch Up. Oh, yeah.

Kryptonite is a fucking awesome song, my friend. petitio August 4 2004, 12:19:51 UTC
If I hadn't made me, I'd be more inclined to bow.
Powers that be would have swallowed me up,
but that's more than I can allow.
If you let them make you, they'll make you paper-mache.
At a distance you're strong, until the wind comes
then you crumble and blow away.
If you let them fuck you, there will be no foreplay.
But rest assured, they'll screw you complete til' your ass is blue and grey.

Keri, Keri, how can you defend this band? Now, whenever I see that icon, I am going to think that Barry is chirping, "My ass is blue and grey just like my shirt! [chord]"

I didn't even have to look this shit up. highandinside August 4 2004, 12:29:34 UTC
I cannot believe you are defending Varitek over Zito. While my mind boggles, I will sing this to you.

If I go crazy then will you still call me Superman?
When I'm alive and well will you be there holding my hand?
I'll keep you by my side with my superhuman mind.

Why don't you go SMACK SOME MORE THIRD BASEMEN, SUPERMAN?

Not that I hate all TDD songs, don't get me wrong; Down Poison is amazing, if you think about it in the context of, say, Cowboy Bebop. But we are going to have to agree to disagree here, baby. I hear this song now and I'm going to think of Tek running around like the wizened old man in the video, in a faded green spandex suit.

asdlkj;liu;lkj AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH Varitek, in a faded green Spandex suit with a big V on the front? Getting put in a headlock by A-Rod in a sparkly Yankee blue uniform with A in sequins over the chest?

Do you know whether the A's and the Red Sox play each other again this season?

What I'd like is a list of the songs they play when the opposing team comes up to bat. For example: when Cristian Guzman of the miserable Twins bats at Sox games, Nancy Faust plays a little bit of "Jesus Is Just All Right With Me" on the organ, and I always crack up.

zito already lost all his cool points by claiming john mayer as a favorite. mayer's got a face that begs for a slap, and he's also lacks . . . oh what's the word . . . balls. the incubus is therefore unsurprising (keri's right about brandon boyd's being hot, rhod's right about the band sucking hard).

i do not *understand* mulder's attachment to trance. it's so incongruent. does he go to raves on off-days or something?

The idea of Mark Mulder on X is going to give me giggles for the rest of the day. I mean. Really. Six foot six and still wearing his fratboy gear and that little spiked hairdo but happily rubbing up against parked cars and licking everyone in sight?

No. Mark Mulder goes and plays golf on off days, then goes and dates whatever sort of woman that he dates.

And I kinda lost all respect for Zito when he proclaimed his deep, eternal love for Dave Matthews. Even the rookie has better sense.

Also -- Barry Zito segment on The Show To Be Named Later (that's what it's really called) is up at MLB.com. Look in the video section, and you'll see the UGLIEST SHIRT EVER WORN BY MAN. His interview is in the later half of the show, and one person (not me, I only wish I were so cool) asks Zito which Oakland A is most in need of MTV's "Pimp My Ride."

Great stuff. Great, great, great stuff.

seriously, the dave matthews thing? was nearly a deal-breaker for me. i was like, ewwwww, why that band of all bands, gross, you big girl! and the fact that zeet definitely tries to sing more like dave matthews than anyone else . . . lord.

but also, in the name of all that is good and holy, that video is excellent! the shirt must die, it's true. must be doused in lighter fluid and set aflame, immediately. other than that, i was alllll about it. and um, all the people who wrote him emails were women. this amuses me highly.

the fact that he bites his nails (*i* bite my nails! freaky!) is equally fantastic.

hittin' dingers like it's going outta style, ovah heah.

Oh, Soriano. I mean, I already think Tipsy is a hysterical song, but ahahahaha.

Why the hell would anyone want to come out to Clocks? I'm not dissing Coldplay, it's just... I don't know, pessimistic much, Matsui?
