ICYMI:Eminem was on teevee Saturday night.

He was "interviewed" by Brent Musburger and Kirk Herbstreit during the halftime show of UM/ND game.
Eminem: "I'm really uncomfortable now."




I'd look like that too trapped with Musburger.
EPIC!
Funniest thing I've seen on tv in a while.

A bit deer in the headlights, but he was coherent unlike the screenshots make him appear.

The situation was hilarious. Being dropped in to talk to mainly Musburger would discombobulate anybody. Then Brent brings up betting lines on the Lions?
Cognitive dissonance turned up to VERY HIGH.

For the young'uns: The kids might not believe it, but CBS football pre-game (starring Musberger at the time) used to involve a segment telling people how to bet the games, led by a "professional sports gambler" who went by "Jimmy the Greek!" This is how many of us were introduced to football. Needless to say, "Jimmy the Greek" got phased out as football became a clean, contemporary sport - on the basis of racist comments, no less (he argued that African Americans are better suited for some positions because slavery bred them to have thick thighs, or some similar nonsense). Repeat, Jimmy The Greek turned out to make racist comments!

Excuse me can I have the attention of the class
There's like 10,000 Syrian's out here and they want to kick our ass.
Brent Musburger asked me if I wanted to go back to the trailer and get high
I said nothing personal but I'd rather have the Syrian's tase me till I die.

My name is who, my name is wut? Johnny Ready!

If you are offended that I didn't post about Syria, be aware that most on DU can handle more than one subject.
Not sure I understand your post.

Well, what can I say the rhyme was for fun. I like to write lyrics and blend in current events. Your thread is a burst of delightful refreshment, in my defense the lyrics were off the top of my head, freestyle.
