DAE'S ODDITY Club control to Koo Dae Sung Club control to Koo Dae Sung Take your batting gloves and put your helmet on Club control to Koo Dae Sung: Swing the bat this time, Moron Face Big Unit, and may God’s love be with you... bo-oi-oi-oi-oi-oing!... This is Club Control to Koo Dae Sung: You've really made the grade! Randy Johnson wants to know how’d it go there? Now it's time to try a sacrifice if we dare This is Koo Dae Sung to Club Control: I'm running through Acta And I'm sliding in a most peculiar way And the throw went up the first-base line, I’m safe! I’m here, not Korea or in Japan, far around the world Yankee Scum, F.U. Bow before me, Mister Koo (spacy interlude) Ever since I made that crazy slide, I'm feeling very ill I don’t think my curveball knows which way to go, Tell my coach I’m hurting very much, ya know Club Control to Koo Dae Sung: Your shoulder’s dead! There's something wong! Can you hear me Koo Dae Sung? Can you hear me Koo Dae Sung? Can you hear ... ... Here now I’m flying to my homeland, far across the world Mister Koo is blue and there's nothing I can do...

Sung to the Billy Joel song "We Didn't Start the Fire" its... Why Did We Get George Foster? Mookie Wilson, Neil Allen Bob Bailor and Jorgensen Tom Veryzer, Wally Backman, Charlie Pu-le-o Dave Kingman, Lorn Brown, Bruce Bochy, Craig Swan, John Stearns, Rick Ownbey, Jesse O-ros-co Ron Hodges, Ed Lynch Rusty Staub in a pinch Frank Howard, Jimmy Frey coach to help the Mets get by And Kingman's dingers lead the league But George Foster just hits thirteen! Why did we get George Foster? Cause Shea's winds are blowin' And Foster's bombs are slowin' Why did we get George Foster? No, we didn't like it When the contract, he sign it Hubie Brooks, Dougie Sisk Seaver's back on the mound to pitch Tim McCarver, Gary Rajsich, Jose Oquendo Steve Zabriskie, Walt Terrell Tucker Ashford, Ronn Reynolds Strawberry, he becomes the toast of the town Junior Ortiz and Danny Heep Hernandez picked up for really cheap Foster's dingers total twenty-eight But he hits just .241 at the plate! Why did we get George Foster? Cause Shea's winds are blowing And Foster's bombs are slowing Why did we get George Foster? No, we didn't like it When the contract, he sign it Davey Johnson, Doctor K The Mets now win day after day Ron Darling, Ray Knight Mets and Cubs put up a fight Gooden's Ks top Herb Score Mets fans are now hungry for more Hubie Brooks' hiting streak It lasts for a bunch of weeks Mel Stottelmyre and Bill Robinson Coaching as the Mets score runs But Foster hits out twenty-four At the age of thirty-four Why did we get George Foster? Cause Shea's winds are blowing And Foster's bombs are slowing Why did we get George Foster? No, we didn't like it When the contract, he sign it Gary Carter behind the dish Hits 'em out like the Mets wish Len Dykstra, Sid Fernandez, Santana in at short Cards and Mets atop the East Gooden's E.R.A. is the least Mets and Braves battling on July the Fourth Straw hits one off the clock Mets and Cards nearly in a lock Doctor K, blowin em away, what else do I have to say? Why did we get George Foster? Cause Shea's winds are blowing And Foster's bombs are slowing Why did we get George Foster? No, we didn't like it When the contract, he sign it Tim Teufel comes from the Twins The Mets rattle off eleven wins Kevin Mitchell, Bob Ojeda, Hearn backs up the Kid Knight gets the starts at third "Lets Go Mets" helps spread the word Curtain calls, bench-clearing brawls, strikeouts for El Sid Davis slides right into Knight Starts off a real huge fight Foster, he keeps out of the fray Let's release his ass away! Why did we get George Foster? Cause Shea's winds are blowing And Foster's bombs are slowing Why did we get George Foster? Cause when he is gone The wins will go on and on and on and on....

More absolutely classic stuff! I'm going to have to think about this one. Hard to even remember how Foster spanned the gap between the terrible teams in the early 80s and the 86 team (before he got released for Maz). Did he ever get a World Series Ring?

Elster88 Nov 03 2005 11:28 AM

I hope you all didn't burn yourselves out in round 1. Those of you that will advance will be hard pressed to match what you did so far. Nice job both of you. I can't decide yet who to pick.

Centerfield Nov 03 2005 11:31 AM

Great songs! More thinking this one will require.

MFS62 Nov 03 2005 11:52 AM

Another toughie to pick. But Lundy took on a song I'd thought about, then rejected, because it seemed too tough. He gets the edge because of a narrow margin for degree of dificulty. Later

OK, great stuff both, I went with Dickshot because that moment from this past season was a highlight and the song parody is brilliant, Lundy's was great and it was not an easy decision.

Edgy DC Nov 03 2005 12:19 PM

We've had a "We Didn't Start the Fire" in this space before. Well, the other space.

KC Nov 03 2005 12:32 PM

Again, both very good. I voted for Koo by a shoulder.

Johnny Dickshot Nov 04 2005 11:28 AM

In the books?

Yancy Street Gang Nov 04 2005 11:37 AM

Looks that way. Johnny wins 15-8.

Centerfield Nov 04 2005 11:42 AM

Congrats Johnny. In the end, I went with Dae's Oddity. It might have been the proper Korean "Koo Dae Sung" that won me over.

ScarletKnight41 Nov 04 2005 11:48 AM

Congrats Johnny!

Johnny Dickshot Nov 04 2005 11:53 AM

I'd like to congratulate my opponent on an entry I would've bet had mine beaten badly till I voted for my own and was surprised to see the results; and thank Randy Johnson, Robinson Cano, and my wife for being a Bowie fan. I certainly didn't reverse the name to be Koreanically correct, though I knew doing so was more acceptable than say, Glavine Tom. It's just that the "right way" created too many rhyme issues.

Lundy Nov 04 2005 12:07 PM

Congrats, JD. I thought your parody was hilarious. I didn't have much humor in mine; I was more concerned with coming up with Mets and events to fill up the parody...the consequence of choosing such a difficult song!
