This is so awesome! I know parodies are protected, but the music is so close it might still violate copyrights. Weird Al always changes things a bit so it it not exactly like the original. Anyone know how that works?
Well done. Here's another nice Blazer themed video that was posted here a while back. Originally done for the Ducks, but a nice remake for the Blazers -
Most sports based parodies are kind of lame and peter out after a while, that one was really well written. And it kicked ass too.
I must be dead inside or something because while I recognize it was well made, I didn't really like it.
You and @Tunchi should team up to write, "I like draft picks and I can not lie... Tanking instead of a playoff die..."
