Clearly, with the poll (on your right) running 4 to 1 against Fatboy Slim, the masses have spoken.
Craig suggested if I could deliver Bono, we'd have a deal.
Unfortunately, Bono is in Africa, but I got him to send a video message to Craig:

Which fatboy slim song? Weapon of choice?
ReplyDeleteEverytime I hear "Streets", hair stands up on the back of my neck because I think of 2002-2003, after I transferred to MU. "Streets" is synonymous with one of the most profound memories and moments in my life: the Final Four run.
ReplyDeleteBeing an alum, it greatly upsets me that this change was made.
BRING BACK STREETS!!
I'm all for change...but you can't mess with 'Streets'.

ReplyDeleteI am chagrined.
