Holy shit. I'm sorry I didn't realize that it would go this quickly. I don't have access to FOFC at work and didn't get any emails, sorry.

I gotta catch up even though I did see the crap picked Satidfaction, which coincidently, was my 4th choice after the 3 I PMed in! Nice work.

I though it was a great pick. It got people to stop ripping on my pick.

Yes, one of the reasons I wanted to take Cash was so I could screw over at least half the other players who all thought they'd get Hurt in the late rounds as their cover.

Boo-yah!

There are plenty of other good covers, and I'm already good on crossover.

I have a pick for ntndeacon but will give him some time since he was around quite a bit today.

After that, vtbub is on deck.

If I had read the rules more carefully, I would have not picked PE in 1.9 knowing they would not go off the board. Satisfaction would have been my 1.9 pick.

First, I'm guessing that st. cronin's artists are going to last at least past this pick.

This pick is by an artist that defines "anti-establishment." My gut was to go with someone from the genre that defines it, and probably my favorite genre, punk. However, there are so many good options that I wanted to go a different route. Rap has turned out to be very similar in this vein. A lot of ant-establishment songs in that genre. So with that, I will take "Killing in the Name" by Rage Against the Machine. How can you get more anti-establishment than "Fuck you I won't do what you tell me!"

Classic -
Epic -
Arena -
Trendsetter - 2.3 - "Rapper's Delight", The Sugarhill Gang
Love Song -
One-Hit Wonder -
Party -
Crossover - 1.8 - "Walk This Way", Run-D.M.C. feat. Aerosmith
Cover -
Anti-Establishment - 3.8 - "Killing in the Name", Rage Against the Machine

Hm. I suppose I can see the logic, but I think I might take the risk of Oilers not grabbing my 4.2 pick.

Solid pick.

Just curious, do you guys think this would work as an anti-establishment pick? Do people realize that or would enough people be confused because they think it's a patriotic song?

Neither, you would have to have heard it live in the 1980s to know that no one cared what it was about - just a very loud arena rocker.

Its funny, I found this on a list of the 50 most conservative songs, and I wanted to laugh. Of course, the same list had The Clash on it, so it shows what they know.

It probably belongs in the Miracle on Ice thread along with the US winning gold by beating the Soviets and the Mets winning the WS after the ball went through Buckner's legs.

Subby is completely hosing everyone else, picking up a top ten pick in round three. He has to be the early favorite to take down the title.
