EXCELLENT ANALYSIS.

The NFL QB Name Theory is sorta like the band Journey for me: Do I love it ironically or genuinely? Hard to tell sometimes.

For "Any way you want it," it's gotta be genuine.

Nike made a good ad with Kaepernick and now everyone is freaking out. You do realize Nike exploits millions of people, and this is the hill you wanna die on? Alright the

I’m the same way with the name game, and I guess that’s the name of the game.

Do I not actually believe it or did I immediately write off both JP Losman and Trent Edwards because of it?

Where does Paxton Lynch fall in the name game?

Trash name, trash game. Lynch buys you some time as a “maybe he’ll turn into something” but he won’t.

Eh. maybe. For my money, currently, it's Don't Stop Believin! But the first time anyone heard Journey, admit it, you loved them. If you say otherwise, I'd say you're a damn liar! There's a reason you all know all the words to: Don't Stop Believin, Any Way You Want It, Wheel In The Sky, Faithfully, Separate Ways, Lights, Lovin' Touchin' Squeezin', Open Arms, and Be Good To Yourself.

I'll admit it, I love Journey, and still listen to them. Faithfully.................

And that guy they have singing now.............................. no. You can't replace Steve Perry's voice. If you're going to add a new singer, make new songs. Van Halen was great with both David Lee Roth and Sammy because they went in a new direction when Sammy took over. They didn't force him to be David Lee Roth.

Wheel in the Sky is the best Journey song.

I think they knew it was over and no one was buying a new Journey album. So they became a cover band of themselves.

Absolutely. Haggar had cache in the business so becoming Van Haggar if you will, was an easy transition.  

That Philippino dude they have singing is phenomenal. I can't tell the difference.

He ain't bad. It's just not the same knowing it's not Perry singing. I think the only band that was able to bring in somebody to replace what was already there was AC/DC. Then again, they didn't force Brian Johnson to do Bon Scott's songs, they went on with business as usual and made new music. Today's Journey is like Lynyrd Skynyrd.

Axl wasn't bad either when I saw him live with AC/DC.

In the sober light of day: This was not a good moment for me. The song is still not in my top 5 for the band, but it is obviously a singalong anthem.

I don't know all the words to any of those songs. To be fair, though, you'd be hard pressed to find any song I know all the words to. Maybe something from Tom Lehrer.

If I'm hearing that song, I'm more than likely watching Caddyshack.  So it's got that going for it, which is nice.

Week one, the Bills start Peterman. After the first series:

Allen: Hey Petey, it looks like on 2nd down they're bringing pressure from the weak-side.

Petey: [staring at the tunnel entrance] My God, it's full of stars.

Allen: OK, so on third down; hey, congrats on getting to third without an INT; they move the safety like they're going to double team, but then he jumps back just as the play starts.

Petey: There's Movement All Over the Place!

Allen: Anyway, on the next series, make sure to look for the inside linebacker as he always taps his nose when he's going to blitz.

Petey: [stares right at Allen] GAME OVER MAN, GAME OVER!

As a music snob, I'll say there's maybe only 1 or 2 Journey songs I can tolerate listening to without getting angry, and it's assuming I only hear them once every 1 or 2 years...

 

 

Only one for me, Lovin, Touchin, Squeezin, and only because the nah, nah, nah at the end is an obvious raspberry to whoever she is.

I fully embrace Journey's cheesetasticness. Shits corny as hell but it's fun. Just don't make me listen to "Dont Stop" one more time. Ahhhhhhhh!!

There's no such place as "South Detroit."  There's not even a section of the city that goes by that name.
