The Jacket Game - one year later

[jekelish]

I figured you're going to see plenty of clips of the JB Jacket Game throughout the day and during the broadcast...why not go ahead and get reacquainted with the delightful meme it inspired, too?

You have done all of us a service, Jekelish, by putting all those memes together in one place. It would be hard to vote on our favorite. I think I enjoy the "Breaking Bad" and the Oscar shot the best but many of them made me laugh out loud.

My only quibble is that I like to refer to it as the Sport Coat game, because it wasn't really his jacket, ya know?

Whoops! I must correct myself. Here is what he was wearing, according to syracuse.com:

Syracuse coach Jim Boeheim leapt off the sidelines, attempting but failing to rip off his suit jacket.

But "jacket" or "suit jacket" doesn't have the fun ring to it that "sport coat" does. You know, it's got "sport" in it and stuff? Am I the only one struggling with this major issue of what to call the Game That Shall Live in Infamy?

You are the only one.

Yes. You are likely the only one.

You are the only one.

Damn.

The problem is that I have a song in my brain that will never come to fruition, but the chorus goes like:

Hey! Hey! Hey hey hey hey!
Sport coat, sport coat game.
I wanna see that sport game.

 

[tptcuse]

Does this work??
Bracket! Bracket! We won't be on any bracket!
Jacket, Jacket game.
I wanna see that jacket game.

 

[Delmar]

Damn.

Ah, a song lyric for the (sport coat or jacket) game. You are no longer the only one.

 

[bballbeadle]

Does this work??
Bracket! Bracket! We won't be on any bracket!
Jacket, Jacket game.
I wanna see that jacket game.

Can you sing it to "Macho Man?"

 

[tptcuse]

Can you sing it to "Macho Man?"

That would take some vocal gymnastics, but I bet someone could make it work.

 

[Delmar]

That was no charge! That was no charge!
Here, take my Sport Coat, it's extra large!
Sport coat! Jacket! It's all the same!
I wanna see that Sport coat game!

Niiiiiiiice. Then you segue into the chorus.
