Rip City Rhapsody

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

So, I was just listening to this old school jam....

Got me thinking.... The Blazers put out some sick tunes back in the day. We need to bang on the local media and get the message into the Blazers organization.... It's time for a new rhyme.

Dude, the 3-goggles is becoming such a trend. Who gets the credit for starting it? Our Blazers. Maybe do a song based off that idea.

I dunno.... Maybe I'm crazy. But I think we should get it going.

HCP????

Not Crazy! But I think we should win some playoff series' first.

Wes Mathews has flow! 2:37

Patty gets credit for making fun of Rudy's eyesight, which caused him to throw up goggles after finding his range. Wes Mathews gets credit for popularizing it.

YouTube has a million of them. Look at the sidebars. Here's something different. I remember this. CBS was so proud it had won the NBA contract from ABC, that it created this song repeating "NBA on CBS." Before that, ABC's song had had no self-promotion, but after that, all did. So you heard "NBA on ABC, "NBA on ESPN," and "NBA on TNT."

Wow, the presidents were amazing when it came to the Sonics. Apparently they knew, earlier than anyone else about the move to OKC with "Peaches". The just got the name thunder wrong.

"Movin' to the country,
gonna eat a lot of peaches
Movin' to the country,
Gonna eat me a lot of peaches
Movin' to the country,
gonna eat a lot of peaches
Movin' to the country,
gonna eat a lot of peaches"

Also, David Stern is clearly the man, putting the peaches in a can.

"Peaches come from a can,
they were put there by a man
In a factory downtown
If I had my little way,
I'd eat peaches every day
Sun-soakin' bulges in the shade"

Brilliant! You have proven everything I ever suspected about David Stern, his full stomach, and his peach-shaped head!
