"Come on, you could get hurt doing anything! You could get hurt on a ladder, or on a bus...or eating chicken! Your mother let's you eat chicken, doesn't she?"
"No no, it's cool man. I've got a black friend!"

Today's "Wow, There's No WAY They'd Get Away with This in Today's PC World" TV Moment
The White Shadow. A new freshman (Haywood Nelson - Dwayne from What's Happenin!!!) is telling Coach Reeves his mother won't let him play basketball, cause he might get hurt. To whit from Coach:
"Come on, you could get hurt doing anything! You could get hurt on a ladder, or on a bus...or eating chicken! Your mother let's you eat chicken, doesn't she?"
"No no, it's cool man. I've got a black friend!"

May have heard this from rrthur (yes ladies, him) years back, but wasn't there a rock band, nay, more than one, that did a tribute to "The White Shadow?"
ReplyDeleteIt went something like this: Band comes on stage dressed as the dudes from the Carver High hoops squad. (Awesome!) Plays a hard-rocking set of songs about the show and individual characters on the show. (Awesomer!) And, between certain songs, proceed to do layups on a goal they brought with them and put on the stage! (Awesomest!)
Tell me I'm not dreaming that this kind of excellence has previously existed?
i love musical tributes to TV shows but frankly, don't care much for the cheesy mockery of the Brady Kids, who gave it thier all. How bout those costumes?

ReplyDeleteDude, this episode is your boyfriend Steve's favorite one. We watched it just the other day. Poor Dwayne, felled by an aneurysm....
