Saw a bit of it on ESPNEWS earlier. He deserved it. Come on! Who doesn't know the words to "Take Me Out..."??

Me. But I'm a dirty foreigner. It's like people who don't know the words to 'You'll Never Walk Alone' at Anfield

I got to hear it on ESPN Radio.

I don't care if he knows the words, but if he does not he either needs them to be posted for him or not sing it.

"Wrigley Stadium".

Priceless. The whole thing was hilarious.

Next month I'm taking in a game at Fenway Field.

Pretty pathetic performance from Rainbow Brite...Naturally, I never laughed as hard at something like that in quite a long time.

Wrigley Stadium? That was the topper :lol: Here's a hint, Gordo...stick with turning left on Sundays...

Sheesh, all ya needed was a clip of some SportsCenter anchor laughing his arse off at the whole thing and it would have been right there with Carl Lewis stumbling through the Star Spangled Banner at the Meadowlands as "Worst Singing Performance At A Sporting Event" :lol:

Where's Fenway FIELD? :P

(on the chance that people don't realize it, "Fenway Field" was my attempt at humor)

Is it that old relic in some New England city. Uh, Boston, by any chance?

Anyway, I don't see what Gordon got booed. I mean Ozzy mumbled the whole song. The best ones to sing it were Bernie Mac, Jack Black & Will Ferrell. LET ME HERE YA!

I doubt the boos really affected him. Even if 30,000 people were involved in the booing that'd only be about 30-50% of the number that boo him every Sunday from February to November. I am no Jeff Gordon fan but I do admire him for disrespecting the Cubs. Nice work, man.

I really don't care a bit about NASCAR, but why is it that everyone hates Gordon?

I've always been a big Jeff Gordon fan. There were many reasons why he is booed so often:

1. He isnt one of the "good ol' boys" from the South. He's a clean cut, corporate Californian.

2. They say he didn't earn his way to the top series, that he just got thrust into a quality team and had instant success. (He was too good too quickly.)

3. He threatened Dale Earnhardt's empire as the greatest driver in NASCAR.

4. He married Miss Winston.

He's not nearly as hated as he once was. He was the original "Young Gun". The hatred started because he came in and excelled so quickly and the fact that Earnhardt didn't like him only helped stoke the fires.

Today most of the boos are directed at Busch, Stewart, Harvick and other brash young drivers. Gordon doesn't take nearly the heat of old, now he's a veteran driver who is respected and liked by most(not me). Most of the boos now come from old time fans, a dying breed in the ever expanding, relocating, over priced NASCAR circuit.

speech. It is the soldier, not the campus organizer, who has given us

the freedom to demonstrate. And it is the soldier who salutes the

flag, serves beneath the flag, whose coffin is draped by the flag, and

who allows the protester to burn the flag."

I think Ozzy and Sharon(well at least Ozzy) attempted to sing it at Wrigley once.

As for Jeff, hilarious. Theres a reason why he is in racing and not football.

on side note speaking of racing, I just got a ticket from my friend for the Indy 500 this weekend!
