Semi OT- For Tweener our Blazer Missionary

by silkybrown on Jul 2, 2008 3:54 PM PDT

Tweener recently posted about a friend of his who apparently is seeing the light (or hopping onto the Blazer Bandwagon) and suggested that we come up with something to make his friend say or do in order to affirm his new love for the Blazers. Many suggested what could be done with the baby blue Kobaby Jersey, but not many mentioned anything about words, phrases or slogans. I personally think that needs to be revisited, especially since "Junk Drawer" has pushed his post off the page.

I will start it off by this heartfelt rendering of "Blazer's Grace" which is really my cheap knock off of the hymn Amazing Grace. Tweener, my friend, I think you should have this convert of yours sing "Blazer's Grace" to the tune of Amazing Grace, and you should record it so that we may see his face shine as he undergoes the miracle of being a "Born Again Blazer"

Blazer's Grace

Oh what a waste the years have been

Rooting for Laker’s Gold.

What Oden Roy LaMarcus bring

Has changed my wretched soul.

...............................................

Pritchard taught all GM’s to fear

His drafts our fears relieved

How precious did his slap appear

The hour I first believed

..............................................

Through many trades, buy-outs, draft picks

Our roster’s looking fine.

To break the Lakers hearts and necks

It’s just about our time

...............................................

(KEY CHANGE UP)

When we’ve been champs, 10,000 years

With trophies we have won

I wish that I had been a fan

Cause Laker fans are dumb.

Is there some kind of exorcism prayer?

Having never been possessed, I don’t know.

If there was, you'd have to say something like this

“Come out of him you dumb stupid purple piece of poo demon fairy!”

Can I buy you a fish sandwich?

Oh thank you silkybrown

I could have him sing that just before the destruction of the jersey.

I’m working on something great. My employer is a civil war re-enactor who knows somebody who has an actual functioning cannon. If I can get them to fire the jersey out the cannon that is my first choice.

I’ll post an update in a couple of weeks on this. Thanks silkybrown for the song & supremepuntiff for the verbage on the declaration of blazer devotion and the poem. And thanks to the rest of you for your creative ideas for disposal of the kobe jersey.

Leviticus 13 has the answer

47”When a garment has a mark of Lakerosy in it, whether it is a wool garment or a linen garment,

48whether in warp or woof, of linen or of wool, whether in leather or in any article made of leather,

49if the mark is goldish or violetish in the garment or in the leather, or in the warp or in the woof, or in any article of leather, it is a Lakerous mark and shall be shown to the priest.

50”Then the priest shall look at the mark and shall quarantine the article with the mark for seven days.

51”He shall then look at the mark on the seventh day; if the mark has spread in the garment, whether in the warp or in the woof, or in the leather, whatever the purpose for which the leather is used, the mark is a Lakerous malignancy, it is unclean.

52”So he shall burn the garment, whether the warp or the woof, in wool or in linen, or any article of leather in which the mark occurs, for it is a Lakerous malignancy; it shall be burned in the fire.

We went like this, he went like that. I say to Hollywood: Where'd he go? Hollywood says: where'd who go?
