Tracy Morgan Tribute (My 100th Blog entry)


Tracy Morgan is as hilarious as he is awesome. 30 Rock would be nothing without him, nothing; except maybe a pretty decent show. I don't know who rights his lines but here are some from one single episode:
  • I slept on an old dog bed stuffed with wigs!
  • I watched a prostitute stab a clown
  • Our basketball hoop was a rib cage. A rib cage!
  • Oh, Lord, some guy with dreads electrocuted my fish!
  • A crackhead breastfeeding a rat.
  • A homeless man licking a Hot Pocket off the third rail of the G train!
  • I've seen a blind guy bite a police horse!
  • A puppy committed suicide after he saw our bathroom!
  • I once bit into a burrito and there was a child's shoe in it!
  • I've seen a hooker eat a tire!
  • The sewer people stole my skateboard!
  • The projects I lived in were named after Zachary Taylor, generally considered to be one of the worst presidents of all time!
  • I once saw a baby give another baby a tattoo! They were very drunk!
  • A pack of wild dogs took over and successfully ran a Wendy's!

Tributing Stuff (Part 11): Tribute to the 30 Rock Tribute to Scotiabank Place and the Ottawa Senators

Two of the best things in the sports and entertainment world... ok, in the entire known world, are the NBC series 30 Rock and the Ottawa Senators (at Scotiabank place). I think this goes without saying. Now what if those two things were combined into one mega-best thing? Has this question been keeping you up at night and haunting your dreams? Have no fear! Your dreaming days have come to an end!

In this 30 Rock scene, Danny had made a "psych-up" song for the Ottawa Senators which had been nominated for a Juno in the same category as Sir Dave Coulier (who must be the same Dave Coulier who played Joey Gladstone in Full House).

The catchy lyrics were:

“The crowd’s getting loud at Scotiabank Place!
Make a hockey lovin’ face at Scotiabank Place!”


The sad thing is that this is the caliber of "psych-up" music that they would actually play Scotiabank Place. 'Tis a sad day in Canadian sport "psych-up" song history when NBC writers can write "psych-up" songs at will, which are as good, if not better than the ones that Canadian our teams play.

One final thing: In the video of Danny while he is singing... look at his pants. Are they skin tight and beige? Or he simply not wearing pants? Why would you write that into the scene!?!?! This show is so ridiculous that even I can love it. Bless your tender heart 30 Rock, bless your rock-tender heart.



I think we should petition to get this song as our official psych-up song. If I could do that I would probably consider it my life's biggest - and shortest lived - accomplishment. A man can dream can't he?
