8R Videos 12: Pro Bowls Should Be In Hawaii Dammit
Posted on | January 26, 2010 | 3 Comments
EVERY TUESDAY David Chalk, renowned, acclaimed and beloved baseball writer from 7th Inning Stache, Bugs&Cranks, SportsUntapped and occasionally Big League Stew throws up Eight Random Videos to entertain and/or enlighten right here on NESW SPORTS.
This Sunday in Miami, some of the greatest professional football players in the world today, who aren’t on the Saints or Colts, or don’t have better things to do, will compete in the Pro Bowl. Which I think is disgusting. By god, the best football players in the world deserve to get lei’d. But for the first time in 30 years, the Pro Bowl won’t be in Hawaii or after the Super Bowl when anyone might even vaguely want to pay attention to it.
In protest, I present this all Aloha Stadium edition of 8RV, featuring the late great Sean Taylor, the late great Michael Jackson, the Aerobie, a large man chugging a forty, a Filipino game show, dancing mascots, and what may be Japanese baseball fans.
It’s the next best thing to getting lei’d.
1. Aerobie Flying ring thrown out of Aloha Stadium
I would like more information about when and why this was filmed:
2. The late, great Sean Taylor Pro Bowl Hit
3. “Wowowee” the Phillipines most popular game show (a Filipino version of “Deal or No Deal”
4. “Wowowee” opening dance number
5. The 2008 Pro Bowl Block Party
Can you name these three mascots? And if so, why do you even know they exist, much less know their names?
Blitz is the official mascot of the Seattle Seahawks. K.C. Wolf is the official mascot of the Kansas City Chiefs. T-Rac is the official mascot of the of Tennesse Titans. I will try to forget that as soon as possible and suggest you do too.
6. Michael Jackson plays Aloha Stadium 1997
7. INSANE HAWAIIAN vs MICKEYS: Large man chugs a forty in Aloha Stadium parking lot
8. AT&T Baseball Commercial Stars Aloha Stadium As A Rainy Japanese Stadium
Tune in next week for 8RV13: Miami Super Bowl Edition
