Lyrics

I nicked the best joke in this tune from Brad Weiss on Twitter. Crowdsourcing, baby!

Windhorst covers basketball
and like Maverick Carter & Rich Paul
went to the same school as LeBron
and sure owes him a lot
you know he’s watched LeBron play
even more than his own mom

Brian’s got a show each week
on ESPN 850
It’s just like "60 Minutes”
at least in the run time
If you mention him on Twitter
don’t hold your breath for a reply

Hey Windy
Well you took all your talents to South Beach
but now you’re back on the road
Hey Windy
and you’ve clearly impressed Mr. Tony
Can’t wait to read you today
Hey Windy

A parody of Barry Manilow, “Mandy"

    The Dread Pirate Roberts acquired mine in a complicated mortgage swap. The police said "Best left unsolved."

    I have the MacBook Pro/Yeti duo and I have to say I think my soul was worth the trade. I wasn't using it much, and I think going soulless improves the jokes for the jingles. I also traded for Josh Gordon today in my dynasty league, so maybe don't rush out to trade your soul based on MY judgment.

    Soul crushing only applies if you have a soul... I think I may have inadvertently traded mine for a large diaphragm USB mic and a Macbook Pro.

    Nice! I should have know you'd have it covered. I was jokingly taunting based on your comment about how you would now have to do overnight jingles for TWO shows.., which would be soul crushing to anyone that even attempts that. :)

    I felt bad that the lyrics weren't more tailored for the current show. I wrote this almost a year ago & that production crew completely ignored it/blew it off. Hearing how much this Tony liked it, I could have easily adapted it for him personally. Having said that, I loved Windy's reaction to my little shot @ him.

    I need to add a new field in addition to "air date": "date aired on some other loosely related show"

    As heard on ESPN something or other. At the time I wrote this, I'm pretty darn sure that ESPN 850 line was accurate.

    Several really clever lyrics in here. Whatever it says about you Kj, goes for me too. I'm surprised as anyone that the older I get, the more I can listen to country.

    Well, I don't know what it says about me that I like Tim McGraw more than Barry, but I think this version is the one for Windhorst. Nice job on both of them!
