Lets do Mets players in the style of Chris Berman. I've got Mike DeJean Genie. What song/Bermanized Met should challenge?

If I remember correctly, Berman's Bermanisms were funny because they were long. He'd use long song titles, or sometimes even work well-known long lyric phrases into the player's name instead of the song title.

So you'd get something like:

Stairway to Heh Vince Coleman vs. Dennis And Good Ol' Boys Were Drinking Whiskey and Ribant
