Espn presents jock jams volume 1 songs series#
The Jock Jams series of discs themselves are a huge hit, selling millions of copies. These songs have infected television, movies, even the local roller-rink. This is not poetry, folks! And why is it being jammed into our heads at every game? You can't escape this stuff. Still think the song is cool? Look how ridiculous it looks in black and white:

Since then it's been one crappy song after another. And as soon as the next three-point basket resulted in the other team calling a timeout, every stadium was blasted with Tag Team's "Whoomp!

Wanted, Dead or Alive: The people in charge of the loud, awful music in sports arenas. Can we come to a consensus on anything? Actually, I think I have found the one issue we can all agree on:
