You've got to be kidding me. Ever since the Sopranos finale that song is dead to me. There's only one song that comes to mind when we lay the division clinching smackdown on Florida tommorrow night. VICTORY - NOTORIOUS BIG "...No respect squeeze off 'til all y'all diminish, Shootouts for twenty minutes, until we finish..." Journey?! You’ve got to be kidding me. Ever since the Sopranos finale that song is dead to me. There’s only one song that comes to mind when we lay the division clinching smackdown on Florida tommorrow night.

VICTORY - NOTORIOUS BIG

“…No respect squeeze off ’til all y’all diminish,

Shootouts for twenty minutes, until we finish…”

Kind of the American (via Ohio) version of the Hip, in a way. Not particularly relevant to these proceedings, though I bet Vogs knows the song.

Getting in the heat
Coming with the beat
And I love what I feel
Hard and heavy

And I’m moving on and on
’cause my life is on the run
Now I feel the need to cry
Oh, yeah - I’m aiming high

Longing all my life
Waiting for a friend
Who is fighting like I do
Likes to do it hard and heavy

It’s a man’s, man’s world
Filled with love and pain
And he never gets enough
And that keeps him very tough

Aiming high - aiming high
And I’m waiting for relieve
To the best of my believe
Aiming high - aiming high
What a fight to get it right
For a minute of delight
