STILL GOT IT: This Guy?

Capt. Redneck Dick Murdoch, You're Awesome

Start the day with a lil laugh huh?




Though NOT (can't emphasize this enough) a Decemberist fan, I AM a Chris Funk fan, and y'all must watch his shred off tonight against stephen Colbert. Lookin forward to it. Should be a doozy...11:30 pm.

Still Got It:THE ANSWER!

Oh what a sweet diversion/aquisition!

'THE TRUTH SHALL COME TO THE LIGHT'

Quickly, I think George shares some responsibility for putting his players in the position that he did, but NOWHERE NEAR that of Isaiah. And Melo was stupid, but he's NOT a punk, Colin COWARD I'm talkin to you douche, phew. Sorry, that's all I'm sayin about this. See Ya on Jan 20th Melo, my team, already in last place, is screwed......

This will help too: http://proxy.espn.go.com/chat/chatESPN?event_id=14033

Still Got It:Albums Not Made In 06

Albums of the Year? Hardly
A tough one as there weren't many that avoided boring me, and the one that i am listening to the most isn't out yet.


So Here goes:
1. Sonic Youth: Rather Ripped
Dictionary Definition of 'still got it'. A slammin hit fest, deal with it.







2.Extra Golden:Ok Oyot System.
Sorry I'm late, just came from a job interview...NAILED IT!


















3. N/A





4. Christina Aguillera.(and team)
I've seen her do 'Ain't No Other Man' on like 5 different shows and each performance was different, from choreography, to the actual band arrangements and the girl can sang. I'd never buy her album or anything but of all the real accessible pop out there Christina is heads and shoulders above em all.













5. Dr. Dog: takers and leavers EP. (by default)
Not their best and really just released as a teaser/momentum keeper for the soon to be released full length.
One great song,'Aint it strange', and a coupla good ones. Expectations for the new one are higher than that Libertines guy, and Trey Anastasio combined.




FLUFFHEAD WAS A MAN




















And One more thing, Don't think I didn't notice 15 games for #15.
A sad day for someone with an e mail address like mine. Let's all try and move on and learn from this please.
I might not want kids after all...dissappointing............
uuuuuuuuugh.

DICE K SIGNS TO THE SOX!







'Have Damon's Number, sure whatever you want, masseuse,.......'
Theo's sayin "this is what I get for losin Pedro,


Seibu Lions say: 'This is what you get, when you mess with us.'













If only band nerds had it this good growing up!

What to Listen for...

Blazers could tie last seasons road victory mark,6, tonight. I think I just jinxed it. Tonights pizzas will be kept warm with the sweet BOOOOOOOOOOMCHAKALAKAAAA's of Brian Wheeler.

TOUR FOTOZ

Promises, promises

Well Z-Bo was so awestruck by receiving this weeks"GOT IT" award that he flipped off his hometown Indiana crowd after a serious disappointing loss for the blaze. But Randolph was just flaunting the hard core punk values diplayed here at still got it, and hey he still had 29 for chrissakes! He apologized and said it would never happen again (so NOT punk) but honestly it wasn't his fault he got NO calls all game and his teammates decided to take the 2nd half off after a double digit halftime lead. So...don't worry the award is still ALL YOURS. And no...A.I. is not coming here so fugghet it.

Zeppelin Rules,
goodnight

STILL GOT IT:MUSIC partDEUX!

Dr. Dog "Fools Life"

STILL GOT IT:MUSIC!

STILL GOT IT:JEFF GARCIA

I love cagey veterans. I have never given 2 s-hits about Garcia,with the 49ers, or whoever else he's been shackin up with since T.O. demanded walkin papers. And I don't give much of a rip for either of tonights MNF combatants, but i love a smart gutsy veteran move like BACKUP JG pulled tonight. Once (Syracuse Orangemen it was still 'men' back then) Donovan, on his way to an MVP season, McNabb went down EVERYONE left the Eagz for dead, and they still might be. I had little interest, and ZERO fantasy interest in this game, and wouldn't have seen it had practice not have been cancelled, but I'm ALWAYS up for veteran backup hero moments. I'm talkin Frank Reich, Vinny Testaverde, dare I say "no longer hail mary, just call me drop kick Flutie"? THIS is why the Bears are toast. Garcia held on to the ball and didn't panic,, took sacks, scrambled, and did all the smart things to help his team win. Man that sounds boring, and I love it. OK. and one more thing in Sports before we move on to Weather....

Manny ain't goin NOWHERE!

Quickie for today,STILL GOT IT: 31KNOTS!

The end is Nigh b/w Daniel made me cry

OH can u feel it? College football is ALMOST over! Where is Rutgers? and who cares. NONE of it matters.Out here in Italian Carbohydrate Transfer Technition land Sports radio is a drivers best friend. Listening to old balding no neck mouthbreathers trying to relive their glory days pontificating over why Wazzu struggled this year because they changed from a 4-3 to a 3-4 or some nonesense is FINALLY on it's last legs. Unfortunately, the exciting College basketball season,( which crowns an ACTUAL champion)will be discussed only in terms of which .500 beavs/ducks scenario has ANY spice and leaving me w/out precious Big East(better than the ACC) news. I'll admit the Texas/USC champ game was gold. But that was the exception to the golden rule that college football is meaning less and, most importantly boring.....


But I digress,

Recommend "The Devil and Daniel Johnston" (thanks jojo)

When I first moved out west ,or to portland specifically , I listened to 'Hi How Are you' all the way through for the first time, and it chills you. I had heard scattered songs from mixes, and the yo la tengo telephone collaboration on genius + love, but the personal and emotional power really hit me more for some reason. Maybe being out here, so far away from where i grew up and having been trying to find my place for what at the time had seemed a while...No forget that, it stand on it's own no matter what.

Any hoo, to have the opportunity to not only witness a DJ performance, not to mention get paid for it, and get to sort of meet him, is something i'll always appreciate. Blackbird 2001 (?) he comes in in a whirlwind of nervous tension, yelling to his road manager (not his dad) and bolts, carrying just his guitar and a notebook, for the basement greenroom amid a sea of curious fans. Frantically he raced down the stairs and simultaneously chugged two mountain dews while sucking a kool cigarette down to the butt in 3 puffs. I have no idea what to expect, and I had heard variations on the legend that gets cleared up very well in the film. But when he played, it had to be the single most powerful ,captivating, and emotional thing that room had and will ever see. Not a dry eye in the house. I'm grateful to have been there. I think Emil opened the show too, but Daniel takes up all the memory space in the old Commodore 64.

So see, it's not all about sports.

Oh AND mussnt forget

If Anyone is the poster boy for still got it .com er blog its diabeetis spokesman and quaker oatsman wilford brimley.
If I could get him on my outgoing message it would go a little somethin like this...hit it:" Jake can't come to the phone right now cause of a reaction to jalopenis. He can't have the jalopenis due to his diabeetis"......that would be how he say jalopenos, if u can't follow.
