AA Records Presents: It's Dickey

R.A. Dickey is my favorite Mets pitcher. Aladdin is my favorite Disney movie. Put them together, and, well...

Princedickey_medium

Star-divide

(Click and sing along!)

Omar Minaya: You'll give me money to sign Ollie

Fred Wilpon: Must give you money to sign Ollie...Oh? What is that? That music! Uh? Hee hee! Omar, you must come see this!

 

Say "Yay, R.A. Dickey"!

Say "Yay, R.A. Dickey"!

 

Hey! Clear the way for the superstar!

How knew?

What he threw!

Batter says "au revoir"

 

Oh come!

Be the first on your block to see this guy!

 

Make way!

Here he comes!

Clap hands! Bang cowbells!

Watch as all the batters cry!

 

Oh Dickey!

Fabulous he!

Pitcher at Citi!

 

Genuflect

Gotta respect

Mr. Dickey

 

Now, try your best to stay calm

Watching him pitch with aplomb

Batters return to the dugout and worry

 

It's Dickey!

Fabulous he!

Pitcher at Citi!

 

Ball moves well

Batter death knell

Definitely!

 

He blanked the real scary Phils

Sent them packing back to the hills

Who's got plenty of mad skillz?

Why, it's Dickey!

 

He hits eighty-five with his good fastball

And the knuckler

It hits fifty-three

When it comes to exotic-type pitches

With much ballyhoo,

I'm telling you, it causes much agony

 

It's Dickey!

Awesome is he!

Pitcher at Citi!

 

That movement!

How can I speak?

Buckles the knee

 

Well, get up into your chair

Order your food and prepare

To gawk and marvel and stare at, at Dickey!

 

He does lots of work for the charities

(He likes the helping, he likes the helping)

And havarti is his favorite cheese

(On sandwiches, yum sandwiches)

He's got fans, he's got teammates and junkies

They all love him, up to the brim

Quotes bursting with poignancy

Oh Dickey!

Oh Dickey!

 

Oh Dickey!

Glamorous he!

Pitcher at Citi!

 

He's the best

Gotta confess

Definitely

 

And that, you Met fans, is why

I hope he never says bye

 

His knuckleball will go down in Mets lore

He puts up the stats

That you cannot ignore

He's got a degree

He comes from Tennessee

He is number forty-three!

 

Say "Yay"!

For it's R.A.!

Excellent work.

AA Records is easily the best music studio on this blog.

Outstanding

What is Robin Williams doing these days? Could he be so desperate to do a live recording of this song?

Now, kids, being eaten by a crocodile is just like going to sleep; in giant blender.

I think his record shows he'll do just about anything for money.

So, yes, I think it could happen.

WFAN's "Boring Al's Podcast" already did that, so it'd be stealing

UPDATE 1: My browser has crashed several times in the process from all the rants (FUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!) - as a result, there will instead be 4 or 5 separate installments of fxcarden's Nightly Rants! from 2011, with a similar pattern for the 2012 rants. Take my word for it, when I say that it's for the best. Here's the revised schedule:

Volume 1: 2011
No. 1: Today at 5:00 PM EDT
No. 2: Tomorrow
No. 3: Thursday
No. 4 and No. 5 (?) TBD

2013 ALL-STAR GAME(TM) LOGO CONTEST

Major League Baseball has formally announced that Citi Field will be the site of the 2013 All-Star Game. (see video) In light of this, I have decided to launch an All-Star Game logo contest. To help get you started, I provided all of you with a sample All-Star Game logo. (click here to embiggen) If you wish to participate, please enter your submission with an image below, in the comments section. The contest ends on May 31st. I will choose a select number of finalists, and the community will vote on which of those logos is the best one.

Can you create a better logo than the sample logo provided? Then, give it a shot. Good luck to all participants!
