WELCOME TO TASTE PURGATORY. YOU’RE IN.
Don’t watch this whole thing, but like a particularly fishy drink at a particularly fishy bar, please dip your finger in it, taste the GHB, and then cease consumption.
OPS found this, and he has his own endorsement of its daring. We’d like to offer a dissenting opinion on this and suggest that setting Creed’s “Arms Wide Open” to the breath-seizing grace of one of the greatest football players of all time in motion is comparable to:
—”Hey, that Van Gogh you have? I improved it by adding my initials to it using a barbecue scraper and my own feces.”
—”You know what would make this romantic evening of breathtaking lovemaking perfect? DUTCH OVEN!”
—”You know what would go with that grey suit and those killer Ferragamos, baby? Your monthly battle panties worn on the outside of your skirt.”
—”I love your script, but I’ve built in a little part for my close personal friend, David Caruso.”

picturing wearing panties outside of a skirt has my mind reeling like I am pondering a mobius strip

Watching Barry Sanders run to Creed is like someone bringing me an ice cream sundae with runny shit instead of hot fudge.
If someone does a video of Shaun Alexander running to a Michael Bolton song….I’m gonna…..write a lengthy letter to my congressman

Seemed like a nostalgic tribute. And a bad one, at that. I almost googled to see if he died over the weekend.

Holly — seconded. All it took was four words (”Well ehhhee just huhhhh-hurrrrd”) to make me literally get a queasy feeling in my stomach.
To call Stapp the male equivalent of Celine Dion would be to do a disservice to Mrs. Dion and her fans.

The Creed “Behind the Music” special is one of the most pathetic things I’ve ever watched.
Stapp: “We had totally lost control. I mean, I was doing 2, maybe three shots of Jagermiester before every show.”

By the way, does anyone else think David Caruso looks a little bit like a red-haired version of Nick Saban?
PAUL FINEBAUM: Well, it looks like y’all have lost to Auburn for the sixth year in a row.
NICK SABAN: Whatever. Auburn’s a good team. I tip my cap to ‘em.
PAUL FINEBAUM: Aren’t you supposed to make some cuttingly sarcastic pun, like “You know what they say, seventh time’s the charm”?
NICK SABAN: I don’t have time for this shit.
ROGER DALTREY: YAHHHHHYEEEEEE!!!!

I always loved how Barry would just flip the ball to the ref after every play. No bullshit from Barry, just solid football.

Jim Carey does Caruso.
Man, who in their right mind would put Creed on a Barry Sanders clip? Wouldnt it make more sense to put “With Arms Wide Open” on a Noel Devine highlight reel, since he probaly has “heard the news today, that his life is gonna change” about 8 or 9 times by now?
I am convinced that Barry Sanders could run head on into a 6 car pile up,and would come out unscathed….

Terry Tate, Office Linebacker says:
when i lived in Birmingham years back i was friends with some of the radio DJs and they would always hook us up with backstage passes to concerts. Well, the only thing going on that night was Creed, so we went along but mostly to see the opener who was a killer young band. We were backstage and Stapp and the drummer (whoever) started talking shit because we had brought in a 12 pack of Miller Lite and they claimed it was their dressing room and Miller Lite trashy beer and they wouldn’t allow trashy beer in their dressing room.
The radio personality we were with replied “actually, prick, this is my greenroom, and you guys are big fucking douchebags, and i don’t want big fucking douchebags in my greenroom.”
Stapp gave us a look, and then like at the end of 8 Mile he flagged his posse out of the room with the good ol’ “come on, guys, this city sucks anyway.”
priceless jackassery.

I saw Creed in Birmingham way back before they blew up and played in Bham 20 more times over the next five years. If you haven’t seen the poker special Stapp was on a couple of years ago… enjoy!

Nickelback stole the Pick of Destiny from Creed, who immediately broke up after losing their powers. Nothing else could explain the success of these two douchebands.

that’s a great video if you turn down the sound. I’d like to say thanks again to Pat Jones for keeping Barry on the bench for his freshman and sophomore seasons. That Thurman Thomas guy was good…but nothing like Sanders.

ah session 9, a fine film with deep dialogue like:

1000 cocktails to you Orson for reminding me of that hilariously awful film.

I read the words up to the video, hit play, and waited for a T Boone Pickens Lemon Party or something equally horrible. Then I read the rest of the post and realized that I had both my brain and the sound in the off position.
