Yeah I Was Wondering What Lil Wayne Thought About the K-Rod Signing As Well




While writing my thoughts on baseball's winter meetings last week I knew that there was something missing. I was not quite able to put my finger on it but I could definitely tell there was a missing piece of sorts. Today I realized what it was: the post had nothing regarding what Lil Wayne thought about the Mets' latest moves. Today that has been addressed by none other than Weezy himself. At his blog for ESPN.com Lil Wayne wrote that he approves of the Mets signing Francisco "K-Rod" Rodriguez. He's a "big fan" of the move and thinks that will provide the "killer instinct to push them over the top."

The best part of the blog entry, however, is about what song he would choose to come out to if he were a closer. His choice is Semisonic's one hit song, "Closing Time" (surely nobody has had the idea to come out to this before). Even better than his song selection is how he would go about editing to his liking:

"I've thought about it, and my song would be "Closing Time" by that group Semisonic. You know the one: Closing Tiiiiiiiime. Except I'd just have that loop over and over again "Closing Tiiiiiiime, Closing Tiiiiiiiime" while I came in from the bullpen. And I wouldn't run to the mound; I'd walk just to soak it all in. And for the away games it wouldn't matter that I didn't get to hear my song because I'd hear all the fans booing me and that would be enough to get me going."
