I could go off writing about conspiracy theories–china, covid BS, government stuff, etc. Nope. Instead, name me a song that came from the Eye in the Sky record that is relevant today. Hunhhhn??? Come on. Come on.
How is a record that came out in 1982 relevant today?
Those that know, already know.
That Alan Parsons Project record contained a song called “Sirious” which was used by the Chicago Bulls for their introductions. To date, it is still the most bad-ass introduction. The OYE has used this song, in conjunction with that wicked AC/DC song for the grand drive. AWESOME!!! There is your goat tie in.
And now, in today’s crappy covid environment, espn and the nba were wise to unleash “The Last Dance” on the rona bound audience. Marketing genius is what it is. No doubt. I did not watch episode 1 & 2. I have seen 3 & 4.
Let’s be real, as a product of the 80s, I liked the Bulls, hated the pistons, watched the Celtics & the Lakers. The Dream Team was a real deal when I was in college. Heck, for that matter, Okie State hoops were bad-ass back then. Eddie Sutton HOF! I also watched a LOT of Arnett girls 6-on-6 basketball in the late 80s. One, they were good, really good. Two, they were really good looking. Kela and Duke’s mother is one of those chicks. I enjoyed watching. A LOT!!
I tie music, sounds & phrases to events in my life. After watching these tv shows, it’s apparent that I am not alone. But, the visual that I took from watching those shows…….OOOOHHHH that Carmen Electra was smoking! And a quick google shows that she is still worth looking at. Good genetics??? Doubt it.
Rodman may be the most-under-rated b-ball player of all time. And this documentary kind of backs this up. Jordan and Pippen actually back it up. How screwed up would that dude be in today’s socially transmitted disease addicted world? book face, twitter and the others would have loved Rodman.
I should probably go back and proof-read this crap tonight. I’ve been typing and texting at the same time. One should not be participating in a group-text while typing an info-laden blog.
All I know is that Aldo Nova still sucks (not really, but it opened up discussion) and watch out for mounds of dirt in the road!
