His singing it, or his losing the gig? (FWIW, I don't have a problem with either.)
War Eagle?
Then again, anyone who expects quality entertainment at TGI Friday's probably deserves whatever "entertainment" they get.
no doubt about it
the cubs are on their way
there gonna hit today gonna pitch today......lets just use that instead
Auburn battle cry.
Walton and Smith, man they got speed
With Sandberg and Grace what more do we need
Bielecki and Maddux firing away
Sutcliffe on the mound what more can we say
Now Mitch is the man, Wild Thing is his name
He comes in late to save that game
Throws to Damon or Joe behind the plate
They call him safe before it gets too late
Cubbies are rocking, na....na....na, na, na
Cubbies are rocking, na....na....na, na, na
I always wondered why you leave early.
Of course after a weekend where Bama kicked Georgia butt, all I can say is ROLL TIDE!!!!
Are you kidding, if the Cubs win the World Series, the song will have a longer life than the Superbowl Shuffle.
It's already been around longer than the Superbowl Shuffle.
The only redeeming attribute of that song is what it celebrates.
Wow, I'd totally forgotten about that song...and with good reason. Although anything that immortalizes "Mike Bielecki: #2 starting pitcher on a division champion" has some nostalgic entertainment value.
For the record, I didn't mind the remix version of "Go Cubs Go" that DJ Roman did last year.
Anyway, it could be worse. "Don't Stop Believing", anyone?
I know. I'm projecting into the future. I figure the Superbowl Shuffle has about 70 years left.
"California Songs"- Local H
Well I got your late night call
You're in the center of it all
You're havin' a ball
And you're really doin' fine
on west coast time
And I believe you
But here's one for the coast
The people with the most
The pretty, pretty folks
The west coast folks
Yeah here's one for the coast
The people with the most
The pretty, pretty folks
The west coast folks
Yeah here we go again
It's never gonna end
We're all so sick of California songs
Yeah we know you love L.A.
But there's nothin' left to say
Please no more California songs
Yeah your heaven is a lie
Just more #### that I don't buy
And they're headin' for the coast
They're movin' out in droves
Sendin' back reports on the radio
The message is the same
It's gettin' pretty lame
California Dreaming's on the radio
And here we go again
It's never gonna end
We're all so sick of California songs
Yeah we know you love L.A.
There's nothin' left to say
Please no more California songs
...And #### New York too.
"No, no, no, no. We're from Chicago. We don't know #### about professionalism!"
It isn't quite that simple, but again, neither is pinning down the actual genesis of the chant or the eagle's first appearance at an Auburn football game. Either way, War Eagle chants won't get you a free round in Tuscaloosa.
Seeing the eagle fly through the stadium and onto a perch or the field is one of the best pre-game moments in all of sports, imo.
But I am biased as a Alabama grad.
I am going to be there this Saturday for my first home Alabama game since 2006. Needless to say I am pumped up (though from what I understand Saban moved the Bear's voiceover earlier in the pre-game).
My only regret is that there is probably no way I can get to City Cafe this weekend.
I'm headed back to the Grove this year in Oxford, MS (best women I've ever seen on a campus) and then to Fla. at Vandy. Visiting all of the SEC venues is a must for me.
What's more, the song did Cubdom a favor back in '84 by being the reason why WGN-AM retired the execrable "It's a Beautiful Day For a Ballgame" as the station's Cubs broadcast theme. Funny thing is, WGN doesn't use "Go Cubs Go" as the theme anymore, even though that's the reason why Steve Goodman wrote the song in the first place. Now they use some rocked-up jingle called "Let's Go Cubs (This Is Our Year)".
I am at 8 right now. All I have left is Mississippi State, Florida, Georgia, and Kentucky. Mississippi State is the most egregious of the four, considering Tuscaloosa is about 80 miles away from Columbus. Of course now I am in LSU country (which is always fun as an Alabama fan).
And retro, the Ole Miss coeds are well worth any trips.
Inge-the problem with Fayetteville is if you drive. Its hell and gone from the rest of the SEC.
I know ladies in the SEC get dressed up pretty much at most campuses (didn't see much of this in Gainesville, which many SEC fans don't truly believe is a 'southern city'), but the Ole Miss ladies take it to the highest levels. Heels, light sundresses, spending hours on their hair. I can't wait to go back.
I've seen a ton of college football in the Big XII and Big 10/11, but it doesn't seem to mean as much or match the excitement of going to a game in the SEC.
5 Stars. I guess the west coast has Baseball Boogie for entertainment, the South has War Eagle!
