One of my mods on WashingtonHockey decided to alter an old classic in honor of Jagr (and given the idea by the opera being written about the '98 Czech Nat'l Team).

Here's a sample:
"Ladies and gentlemen, I give you "Jagr Rhapsody"
Is this the real life-
Is this just fantasy-
Our team's in a landslide-
No escape from reality-
Open your eyes
Look down on the ice and see-
I’m just a rich boy, my Czech model abandoned me-
Because I’m easy come,easy go,
A little high,little low,
Anyway the puck goes,doesn’t really matter to me,
To me"

The rest can be found here: http://www.washingtonhockey.com/cgi-bin/dcforum/dcboard.cgi?az=show_thread&om=1318&forum=DCForumID1&omm=2&viewmode=threaded

Just for that....

I'm the Weeping Willow,and I approve of this post.

I heard about this opera on the Czech gold winning team.
I thought only Hollywood was scraping the bottom to find new ideas, but it seems that the folks involved in the "higher" arts are just as desparate.

If Shmoo wrote that, he should win some sort of a prize . . . I'll be muttering, "move your ass, move your ass" and "former Penguin, former Penguin" all day long now.
