Welcome Back Syracuse (right click to save)

What’s the saying? Anything worth doing is worth doing right? Yes, I believe that’s the one. I did this song last Thursday night in preparation for the Twitter War last Friday with the Syracuse Bloggers. Obviously, I want to thank all the Cuse folks that linked to the song: Nunes, Idiots, Orange 44, Hoya Suxa. Much appreciated guys! I really didn’t think much of the song at the time, and I’ll get into that at the bottom of the post.

The idea behind the song was obviously to rub in the fact that Syracuse has not been very good for the past few years. But at the end I wanted to acknowledge that the program does seem to be turning around and that it is a welcome change. If you know anything about college football, you know that the Big East takes a world of shit from every other conference when West Virginia isn’t kicking the shit out of some supposed national power school. To put it another way, Syracuse and Pitt need to be good. People know West Virginia, but there has to be more than that before people will stop taking digs at the conference as a whole. And I’ll be damned if I’m going to say anything nice about Pitt! I haven’t mentioned Cincinnati, but they are the #8 team in the country and how much does anyone talk about them? Exactly!

I had to be beat over the head with logic to post this song, but I finally got theĀ  message. Thanks G! I’m a musician, so naturally the stuff I think is good is what I’m going to put my energy behind. I think I know better than everyone else. But I’m going to show you a couple videos the first one is something I put a world of time into. The second I put very little effort into. Go check the number of views on each. It’s not even close. They both had the same amount of pimping on FanHouse, btw.

  1. Actually, the first one was linked directly into FanHouse, so almost all the hits are from that post on FanHouse. The second isn’t even linked to FanHouse. When the second one went up it was from the now defunct AOL UnCut video page. So all of those 22,000 views were from word of mouth, etc. The second video was one of the most popular I ever had at FanHouse, so you can probably add another 20,0000 to that number. The 2,000+ views of the first video make me feel bad if you didn’t go see how many views it had. What the hell do I know about what people like?
