What would your entrance song be?

[Guest cooby]

Is that kinda like a "This House Not For Sale" sign?


Also, it's spelled wrong! Like the offical yearbook

[Theoldmole]

Another one you wouldn't want to use --

The Young Rascals -- Groovin'

[Theoldmole]

What about "The Only Living Boy in New York City"?

[metirish]

I think the theme music from " The Benny Hill Show " would be cool.

and the old baseball cap bullpen carts could drive in to the infield backwards, very fast, in very stilted movements, discharging a Mets reliever dressed as a woman and .............


Nah.

[Guest abogdan]

Just thought of another one: Du Hast by Rammstein.

Yakkity Sax, just in case you ever get to reliever in the majors, metirish

-Did you know that the part of the Toy Maker in the movie Chitty Chitty Bang Bang was played by Benny Hill?

-My mom spent part of her childhood in an orphanage in England. Benny Hill was a radio personality at the time and he came to visit the kids. She said he was incredibly charming and handsome.

Charming okay but 'incredibly handsome'?

[Guest cooby]

My mom is a Boots Randolph nut, that's how I knew that.

Not sure how she feels about Benny Hill though.

[Methead]

Handsome by England standards, maybe.

[soupcan]

I hear they use sugar as toothpaste over there.

[Elster88]

Seriously how come they have such bad teeth? Not just crooked teeth from not getting braces in childhood, but dirty yellow teeth.

Hedley & Wyche

[ open in British pub ]

Spokesman: You like our pubs, and you like our fish and chips. And I'm about to let you in on another secret - Hedley & Wyche.

Pub Owner: It's the only toothpaste we ever use! [smiles, revealing poorly-cared for teeth]

Barmaid: One tube last for years! [smiles with rotten teeth]

Bobby: Actually, I've used it all my life, and I've never had to go to a dentist. [smiles with rotten teeth]

Spokesman: Hedley & Wyche, is the toothpaste that makes brushing a pleasure. That's because its mild cleaning agent is enhanced by two teaspoons of pure cane sugar, for a smile that says "Yum, that was good!"

Pub Patron: And it tastes great on a cracker!

Jingle:

"Hedley & Wyche
The British toothpaste!
It tastes okay
And it's got great taste!"

Spokesman: Hedley & Wyche. The British toothpaste. You don't have to brush your teeth every week - but you just might want to!

Announcer: Hedley & Wyche. For a smile that says, "Yum, that was good!"

Valkyries don't dance; they [u:abf6725738]ride[/u:abf6725738]. At least in Wagner operas.

[Diamond Dad]

I'd use "Pressure" by Billy Joel

I think Billy Wagner should go for "the Ballad of Billy the Kid"

[soupcan]

Haven't we all heard quite enough out of Billy Joel at this point?

[patchyfogg]

Actually, if he's gonna come out to a Billy Joel song, he should come out in a bullpen car that crashes every time.

Plus, Mr. Joel is a well-known Yankee fan who used to go by the name "Billy Martin."

That song always gives me a headache

[Guest 86-Dreamer]

Today's print edition of Newsday had the following "Daily Rant" from a reader:

"So what song do they play when Mike Francessa comes in the room? 'Enter Sandwich'?"
- Brian Wilson, Westbury

Could it be the Brian Wilson.... if so, he may have suggested "Getting Hungry"

[Frayed Knot]

I think someone should march out to that whistling theme from 'The Bridge on the River Kwai'

I think the home team's stadium should take it upon themselves to assign songs to opposing players.
Like maybe when Prince Fielder hauls his huge butt to the plate they can chime in with 'Baby Got Back'. Or they could go with 'Having my Baby' if Chipper knocks up another fast-food waitress and stuff like that.

I remember reading that a ballpark organist got in big trouble when he/she played "The Addams Family" theme when Wade Boggs came to bat--this was right after his affair with Margo Adams went public.

Prayer by Disturbed

]Another dream that will never come true Just to compliment your sorrow Another life that I've taken from you A gift to add on to your pain and suffering Another truth you can never believe Has crippled you completely All the cries you're beginning to hear Trapped in your mind, and the sound is deafening Let me enlighten you This is the way I pray

[DocTee]

The Cleveland PA announcer was canned a few years back for playing Whitesnake's "Here I go again" when Angels reliever Chuck Finley entered a agme (he had recently filed assault charges against Tawny Kitane, former gf of lead singer David Coverdale)..


And I recall reading that a Brooklyn Dodger organist was ejected for playing "Three Blind Mice" during an umpire meeting at secons base (after one of hte crew had to leave for medical treatment)-- tho this might be apocryphal

[Guest ScarletKnight41]

I asked this question to MK's 9-year-old friend tonight, and he said, "Dirty Little Secret." I'm half appalled, half impressed.
