The music thread is another example of what makes this board so appealing to me.  In contrast, this is how that thread would have gone on the Bootleg:

H:  Two-page post on favorite songs of 2013.

A:  WTF does this have to do with football?

B:  No kidding.

C:  The music was better when Harbaugh was here.

D:  I’m ok with the idea but Hulk’s choices are ridiculous.

E: Yeah, Hulk always thinks everything’s great.  I half expected him to post that the Beatles are reuniting.

F  Yeah--all four of them.

A:  WTF does this have to do with football?

L:  None of this stuff is good.  And it’s only going to get worse, people.  (Nineteen paragraphs follow to explain why each of the 22 choices is bad.)

T:  I worry too.  I think 2014 is a trap year for music.

L:  None of Hulk’s songs would be hits in places like London or Paris.

Hulk:  Well hang on there.  Most of these are hits in London and Paris.  You can look it up.

T:  Never mind lists like those.  What do your ears tell you?

L:  These calls are as bad as Shaw’s.

B, C. and D:  Roger that.

C:  Shaw still likes the same stuff he listened to in 1988.  He hasn’t changed.

E:  Yeah, he’d say Cheap Trick and George Michael.  And he’d say it really smugly.

A:  Hell Cheap Trick and Michael.  He’d say Pat Boone and Perry Como!

C:  Yeah.  Really smugly.

Boston Card:  Actually I really like Song for Zulu and Timber.  I like a lot of this stuff.
