PANTS OFF DANCE OFF!!!!
I'm hitting and running like my name is Ichiro on this one little kernel of information I JUST read. And seriously, it has to be shared. Seriously, I have had thoughts about this before(I even dreamed about myself challenging Tim Wakefield to a dance off!) but it's a reality thanks to Mike Lowell and his charity.
RED. SOX. DANCE. OFF.
Saturday night Mike Lowell is having an event for his foundation, at which the Red Sox are slated to be having a dance contest. After Coco Crisp displayed a series of break-dancing moves (just two or three), I confessed that if somebody throws down a sheet of cardboard in front of me I will spontaneously break out into the moves I used when trying out as an extra in “Breakin’ 2: Electric Boogaloo.” (Although I never did once spend a dollar at ‘Chess King.)
“Ozone and Turbo,” Coco said, referencing the two main characters in the 1984 classic.
“Sadly,” I responded, “I know exactly who you are talking about.” What I couldn’t tell him was that Ozone’s was a nickname for the character’s true name, Adolfo ‘Shabba-Doo’ Quinones, and Michael ‘Boogaloo Shrimp’ Chambers was the true moniker for Turbo. And, in case you missed it, Jonathan Papelbon did turn down the chance to be in “Dancing With the Stars.”
This is just....I will pay lots and lots and lots of money for video of this. You don't understand. Also I think I'm like in love with this team beyond anything I could've imagined. I mean seriously. Dance Offs, Cookie Offs, Ping Pong Offs?! Dude, seriously. I am like in love with this team because they're just so weird and quirky as I am. This is love.
Also Rob Bradford breakdancing=LOL.
