Time To Switch Gears To Football

By Jon Bois

The political and baseball seasons are officially over, and if we haven’t already, it’s time that we shift our focus to the other major American sports: football and basketball. So this afternoon we’ll dwell on American football, the “beautiful game,” through the scope of a collection of animated GIFs and pertinent lyrical brilliance. Look for a basketball installment next week.

Doing the garden, digging the weeds,
Who could ask for more?
Will you still need me, will you still feed me,
When I’m 64?

“When I’m 64,” The Beatles

Well I ain’t prejudiced, I don’t give a f***
This is what it sounds like - when we ride on our enemies
BEYOTCH! When we ride on our enemies

“When We Ride On Our Enemies,” 2Pac

I’ve got big balls
oh I’ve got big balls
I’ve got big balls
and they’re dirty big balls

“Big Balls,” Will Oldham

I know I’ll make it, love can last forever
Graceful swans of never topple to the earth

“Thirty-Three [Yard Line],” Smashing Pumpkins

What am I still to you?
Some thief who stole from you?
Or some fool drama queen whose chances were few?

“Morning Theft,” Jeff Buckley

He says you’re either wrong or right
and life will go another way whatever you choose.

“Come Home,” The Dismemberment Plan
