I need help

PrintI have enjoyed are conversations, and I feel somewhat disappointed that we Oregon fans don't have to interact with you Vol fans very often. It really has been a treat, and I hope Tennessee, and any travelers will feel welcome at a hostile Autzen Stadium in 2013.
But I have a problem. It isn't a little problem. I had no idea that this would be a side effect from playing against Tennessee. It's literally making me go crazy. I've been laughing like an man that has gone mad. I swear the birds are even taunting me. I hear a car drive by on the road, and it sounds like a B minor chord. My head just has to finish the rest.
Now, I'm randomly busting out:
"Rocky Top, you'll always be,
home sweet home, to me,
good ol' rocky top,
Rocky top, Tennessee,
Rocky top, Tennessee"
The damn song just will not get out of my head. I've had problems like this before, and I've found listening to the song in its entirety will just get it out of my system. That's the only reason why I've ever listened to Creed on purpose. But Rocky Top WILL - NOT - LEAVE - ME - ALONE.
How do you guys cope with it? Your band didn't even play it that much at the Oregon game.
All I can think of is how corn won't grow, or how there isn't any smoggy smoke on the rocky top.
I'll look around online. "Oh! Rascal Flats, I don't like them. This is bound to work!"
Maybe I just need to pluck it out on the guitar? Bm, A, C, G. D, C, D, C, D. Simple enough - BUT NOOOOO!
Please, Vol fans. Please. I beg you. What is the antidote? Will I need surgery?

Pretty much
Yeah, resistance, futility, all that.

Just think of it this way:
when you play USC and their band plays the only ditty they know, just let Rocky Top run through your head, look at Kiffin, and smile.
;-)
is it the stanford band
that always does the interesting shows? like video game themes etc. It would be hilarious if they only played Rocky Top when they play USCw
If you win all your fights, you're pickin em

I think that was Cal.
Stanford’s interesting shows happen when the teams are still on the field.

Cal did the video game show.
But the Stanford band did the handicapped symbol when UCLA got busted for giving handicapped passes to football players, got banned from Bourbon Street, and are the guys I’d count on to do that.
Although heck, Oregon may do that.

Yeah. That’s a stunt that Stanford would probably end up doing.
Stanford even ended up getting banned from Autzen, but I think that expired this year.
I’m expecting them to d make the shape of handcuffs and do “Bad Boys”.
it’s spelled "S-H-U-F-E-L-T-A-L-L-W-A-R-M-A-N-D-F-U-Z-Z-Y"
I'm voting for
the shape of a Heisman and “I Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For”.

Maybe "You Can't Always Get What You Want" would be better.

This is what I want to see happen...
…all throughout Lame Kitten’s reign of terror error at U$C. When the Trogans get pounded into the ground like a tent spike, the opposing team’s band should fire up Rocky Top. I should contact Dr. Sousa and make sure that all the other schools in the Pac 10 12 have copies…

I've been told...
to get a song out of your head, you should sing Amazing Grace to the tune of the Gilligan’s Island theme.
"It breaks your heart. It is designed to break your heart. The game begins in the spring, when everything else begins again, and it blossoms in the summer, filling the afternoons and evenings, and then as soon as the chill rains come, it stops and leaves you to face the fall alone."
