Remix Wednesday: Wilco + Football + Rap Music = Sweet Fun

Just the other night, myself and a bunch of my co-workers got together for our annual live fantasy football draft, which I have come to look forward to with much anticipation each year.  It has proven to be a great time filled with tons of fun, food, fellowship and football statistics.  So with opening weekend for NCAA football happening last weekend and the first NFL game being tomorrow night I thought that I would share this great football themed remix with you.  Brought to you by the guys over at The Hood Internet here is a mashup of Wilco’s fantastic song Jesus Etc., Kanye West’s Classic, and the infamous 1985 Chicago Bears’ Super Bowl Shuffle.

And for those of you that have never heard of the Super Bowl Shuffle you must check out this video.  Yes, that is correct back during the year I was born, Walter Payton, Mike Singletary, William “Refridgerator” Perry, and the rest of the Chicago Bears football team wrote and performed a rap song on live television.

And it was awesome. Boy, those were the days.  Back when they were actually a team and not a bunch of individuals who worked together on Sunday afternoon.  I feel like Peyton Manning has done his part with all of his commercials and SNL appearances.  But after watching this video again I think that the rest of the NFL really needs to step up their game.
