What the hell does it being lyrics have to do with it? To me it's more about being rude and ignorant than mean-spirited. I grew up hearing a lot worse.
Why not just agree to 'accept' people for who they are and the life style chosen. I don't agree with many peoples life styles but it's their choice. I'm not the ultimate judge of peoples failing / successes, obedience or disobedience (thank goodness) The culture throughout the world has changed and will continue to change as long as man is breathing and free to make choices he is comfortable with.) It's not going to help to demean people because of choices they make. Judgement is coming from a more powerful being. Try accepting, try being respectful to all mankind. Does not mean you have to be buddy / buddy with them.
Actually I was being more tongue in cheek than honest. I don’t believe in offending people needlessly, but on the other hand the poster was being faithful to the lyrics, which were written in the 70’s. To have full context, you have to listen to the song, which is a funny story about a guy who finds himself in trouble in a biker bar in the Deep South. This is why I am split on the issue.
Yes, but out of context it can definitely be offensive if you dont know the song. There are plenty of old song lyrics I would not write down and share out of context.
C'mon guys. Lets get along. After all... We built this city, we built this city on rock an' roll Built this city, we built this city on rock an' roll Say you don't know me, or recognize my face Say you don't care who goes to that kind of place Knee deep in the hoopla, sinking in your fight We got too many runaways eating up the night Marconi plays the mamba, listen to the radio, don't you remember We built this city, we built this city on rock an' roll
personally, i would have made the lyric more suitable. you can use a funny historical reference without being literalistic about it.
Somehow I knew this would end with Horn fans comparing old song lyrics to forget the one that done 'em wrong... or something like that... It just got there a little more weirdly than I expected. Or maybe they did? What was their record last year again?
It has been suggested that the documentary about the McCoy-to-Texas-and-back saga already has the working title of "Undefeated"
"Or maybe they did? What was their record last year again?" Right now USC is a train wreck. But they still have at least as many national championships as we do. If he goes to any big time program, including USC, the workouts won't be a cakewalk. Can't run from hard work unless he's willing to take a big step down.
Fine. I just hope he isn't the second coming of Reggie Bush which will be evident by him driving a Land Rover and the parents moving to San Diego to live in a rent-free house.
I wish him well. As good of a talent as he is (and he's a very, very good talent), if he really doesn't want to be here and/or he can't hack it, then I suppose it's best for all that he hit the road. I think this is an issue inside Bru McCoy's head, and it should NOT impact our out of state recruiting in general, or on the West Coast. As stated before, USC, UCLA, and the Arizona schools are currently train wrecks, bloody abortions, or some combination of the two. The West Coast recruiting door is wide open for the picking, for now...
What gets me is this kid was going to probably start at a school that just may win it all the next few years. When the players get their rings they can say. Bru Who?
