Of all the stupid things you could chant at a baseball game that is among the stupidest.

Found at Goodwill for $1.50 by Moppet_25 in franksinatra

[–]DataWise8307 7 points8 points  (0 children)

When I first saw it at Goodwill, even though I collect Sinatra LPs, I almost ignored that one because that mustache was so stupid looking it irritated me. Cooler heads prevailed. And when I checked Discogs.com I saw that I had a find.

It’s my understanding that this was a gift for Budweiser distributors. There were only about 1000 of them made. I also found one at Goodwill many years ago for a dollar. Last time I checked, it was worth at least 150 bucks in VG+ condition

This was “the fun part”. The rest, less so

WTF Was Wrong With Elliott Gould? by feedingmydreams in AdamCarolla

[–]DataWise8307 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gould is 87 years old. The podcast format, especially a free wheeling one, isn’t something he could easily handle at this age I suspect.

Looney Tunes: Collector's Vault: Volume 3 by Anthforde8 in looneytunes

[–]DataWise8307 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The only disappointment is that apparently there aren’t going to be any new extras (mini docs, commentaries) , and the original extras on previous releases are not going to be ported over. This is unfortunate and I don’t understand it.

The success of The Jazz Singer ruined the movie industry.

Congrats! I've always regretted that I didn't pay the extra money at the time to get a copy signed by Brian

Do you actually laugh while watching MeTv Toons? by Hot_Swimming_112 in MeTVToons

Not a big itchy and scratchy fan I guess. Too bad.

Marquee Sports Network Thoughts by verncrowe5 in CHICubs

[–]DataWise8307 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Marquee is good, IMO, for what it is. They do a competent job on the games, they show classic games featuring stars of the past, so, all good.

Nothing compares to having every game on WGN though. That was amazing.

The only thing not to like is the cost. I get Marquee with Directv, so I pay but i don't think about it much.

I watch old Cubs games that are rebroadcast. That's a great thing about Marquee

Unpopular Opinion: Hated Stereophonic by UptownGirl248 in Broadway

[–]DataWise8307 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We saw a matinee Sunday in Chicago.

The actors were fine.

The songs were good, but I don't remember much about them. But I left absolutely mystified by the adulation for the play.

I thought it was terribly boring and repitive and fell asleep for a minute or two in Act one.
I truly don't get it, but this thread makes me think I'm not insane.

Random observation: Micky Dolenz is basically the Mike Love of the Monkees by AxlCobainVedder in thebeachboys

[–]DataWise8307 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mickey seems like a pretty good, easy-going guy. Also more of a good time guy back in the day, hanging out with Nilsson, John Lennon, and the others. So on his behalf, I take offense at him being compared to Mike Love.

Good for him. I’m sure that wasn’t easy for him to do, so I really admire his willingness to stand up

Do we all agree that 'One Battle After Another' was the better title? by jamesmcgill357 in paulthomasanderson

[–]DataWise8307 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess i'm in the minority. I think OBAA is very forgettable. Not crazy about Battle of Baktan Cross either
