A classic.

Up there with the Mormon Tabernacle Choir singing "La Bamba" (I'm not making it up, I swear).
Or a young, All-American girl-boy duo singing "One Toke Over The Line, Sweet Jesus" on Lawrence Welk ...
and Welk thinking it was some sort of a religious song ...
Ha! Had never heard of that but here it is. Sounds like maybe the guy introducing them had a toke earlier.

And my optimism of Goodwin continues to grow. I really like his demeanor and understanding of how he's going to impact winning.

Todd still seems like a young guy, cliché responses and seems to default into the "right" thing to say. He's soft spoken and doesn't seem totally comfortable yet. My expectations are low.

As an aside, Kellen Olsen asks great questions. I really like hearing these guys evaluate their own development.

Olson has been really good since he's come on the scene.

I have a feeling Yuta is going to be a fan favorite. He seems really funny and sweet and wholesome. I like him already.

Yui Watanabe has a nice stroke as well, from what I've seen.

Man, I don't know if it's not enough offense (play them with the big 3?) but Goodwin and Okogie together would be a sight to see. They would terrorize opposing offenses.

Thanks. Now I hear it. It was featured on The Show a few years ago.

Here's hoping that they don't prove to be radioactive.
