The toolsheds pictured here are members of a "band" called Something To Ponder, and they, uh, do some sort of funk rap folk music, the type of thing that we listen to and ponder, oh, the end of civilization. But that could just be us.
Anyway, they've put together a song called "F U Stuart Scott," about everyone's favorite "Hey, fans, don't boo!" anchor Stuart Scott.
It's what the kids call a "diss" song, though it makes us wonder if these kids could maybe use some milk and a nap. Honestly, if your song ripping on Stuart Scott causes us to say, "Jeez, Stuart Scott should be above this," it might be time to pick up those GRE study guides again. Just a thought.
By the way, if you ask us, Scott's worst crime is ruining the enjoyment we once got every time we flipped over the pillow and realize it was, in fact, cool. This small life pleasure has been irreversibly spoiled by Stuart.
The song, if you dare, is below. We did what we could to warn.

"People Actually Lamer Than Stuart Scott..."
never thought it was possible.
Not gonna do it. Not gonna listen to that "rap-folk-funk" song.
What's with the photo?
Crouching Tiger, Hidden Douchebag?
I gave my love a cherry, that had no stone...
It figures that one of them appears to be a Cubs fan.
Also, nice hydrangeas, bitches
/are those hydrangeas? I don't actually know.
I think they're azaleas.
dammit. I don't know much about flowers.
I only know that because of Augusta National.
It sounds like a cross between "Fuck You Norway" by Showcase Showdown (great song) and the Haunukkah Song by Adam Sandler (not so much). If there was some way to throw Stuart Scott, Adam Sandler, and all three of these clownshoes into a giant blender and hit "puree", I'd sleep with a smile on my face tonight.
I'm pretty sure that guy on the bottom left is Stephen Baldwin.
Just give it 20 seconds. 3 white guys who sound like Phish meet OAR rap "Stu you think you're hip hop, but your not." This picture will soon be placed next to 'Irony' in the dictionary
Motherfuck, I'm tired of all these white boys rapping. Hang it up and let's have our race get back to making some quality country music like we were meant to do.
suddenly i don't feel like the biggest tool on the face of the earth anymore.
thanks Something2Ponder!
I agree. Azaleas. Have some in the front yard.
"Something to Ponder"?!?! Just reading that makes me want to punch something. While listening to Manowar.
Boom goes the rap-folk-funk
These guys make Icy Hot Stuntaz looks like Wu Tang.
Man... we gotta get this to K-Fed! Then we go nationwide.
Look out Biatches!
They probably spent weeks practicing this in their mom's basement.
*look. The song also makes me type badly.
Probably all excited they were singing a song with the word "fuck" in it. Had to stop singing whenever grandma came around.
I never thought I would write this:
London Bridge>K-Fed>FU Stuart Scott
But I do have to say I like the line:
"You're the 2006 version of Carlton Banks."
Damn, why do you have to diss Phish like that?
I can't catch the line about Michael Irvin, but I thought some of it was pretty funny. And obviously heartfelt - you could tell by the harmony.
And yes. Definitely azaleas.
if by GRE study guides you meant GED study guides, than you would be correct. No way any of these clowns applys for a graduate school let alone has a bachelor's of anything. I'm just sayin'
Well, if loving azaleas is lame, then I guess I'm just a big lame.
Although these guys shouldn't be calling out anyone for being fake, the song is pretty funny.
I hope that admission doesn't get me banned.
G-Douche and Special Shit.
Hi. We're a rap group struggling to be taken seriously. In our spare time we enjoy smelling azaleas, playing boche ball in the backyard whilst drinking Newcastle, all while wearing our pink polo shirts. Go Cubs!
Don't ever lump these guys in with O.A.R.
their lead singer went to my hebrew school
Hey guys. Pssst. Stop debating what kind of flowers those are or you are seriously never going to get laid. Another activity I would suggest staying away from if you want to get laid: performing rap-folk-funk with a floppy-haired guy in a funny colored shirt.
I like the crouching guy's casually held beer. It's as if to say, "See? We drink beers! We are not totally lame!"
Damn, why do you have to diss Phish like that?
Because they eat hog?
SE Jerome you forgot to preface your comment with "You know how we know we're gay..."

Its's not a beer bottle, its an IBC root beer bottle.
UM, that's one of the greatest random pseudo-celebrity connections ever. I feel like I need to go research everyone who attended Temple Sholom in the mid-80's to see if I have anything cool in my past.
all while wearing our pink polo shirts.
...with collars a-popped
I'm not going to listen to this folk-crap for obvious reasons. (I'm at work/Will's summation is funnier.)
But it's reason enough to ask: Anyone else remember Stu Scott's own foray into music? In that fantabulous "Only Wanna Be With You" video for Hootie and The Blowfish?
Watching that, even as a youngster was an amazing experience. First, it was the most over the top Hootie song of all time. (And that's saying something.) Second, the song managed to wrap in amazingly bad lyrics (I'm such a baby 'cause the Dolphins make me cry ...) AND rip off Bob Dylan at the same time.
Then there's the video ... I still haven't seen a video that short where so many people (Hootie, Blowfish, Dan Marino, Scott, Dan Patrick ... etc.) all jumped the shark in sequence at the same time.
I wonder if this was on the nursery ryhmes CD they found Mo's SUV??
Ok, so they are trying to pass off the illusion of being cool enough to drink beer.
And for the next single: "Get you damn hands off me Harold"
"wave your hands in the air/
and start groping like you just don't care"
I'd rather listen to Paris Hilton's song than this crap. I'm sure I'm not the only one.
And Kevin Ferdline called and said there's only room for one lame wanna be musician. So back off.
BDD beat me to it. Though the tune also has a bit of an Urban Dance Squad vibe to it, minus the cool Charlie Brown tee shirt.
Man, Stu Scott's non-lazy eye is gonna be full of fire and fury when he hears this on my blog, MP3s That Riiillllly Suck.
The Goo Goo Dolls and Everclear released a joint statement expressing their utmost joy at not being the lamest white musicians anymore.
only good thing I got from this post is I can now identify azaleas
Sounds more like they were going for a Bloodhound Gang thing, looking at some of the other titles.
Funk-rap-folk...why didn't they call themselves Limp Bisquick and get it over with?
Brandon: they suffered some very bad luck when they found out paris hilton and K-fed aren't musicians. Just whores.
Actually, I think they really are drunk. The guy on the left appears to need his left hand just to balance himself and I think the guy in back is pissing on the azaleas.

They don't need no instructions to rock!
So, is Wednesday now officially crappy music day at Deadspin?
why oh why did toolsheed #3 have to be wearing a Cubs had.
Your beloved-if-he-wasn't-injured Shawn Springs went to my high school, UM.
Lewis Black, too.
"Something To Ponder is a multi-headed beast that was spawned out of drinking, a kid who could freestyle and another kid who could play the guitar and hold half a tune."
so. ummmm. what happened to the guy who could freestyle & the guy who could play the guitar & hold 1/2 a tune?
just asking.
Isnt the guy in the back Chuck Klosterman??
so. ummmm. what happened to the guy who could freestyle & the guy who could play the guitar & hold 1/2 a tune?
They left when the beer ran out.
If making fun of guys wearing pink polos is your idea of a good time, then this link is for you.
These guys and the Dead Tree Crew are gonna have a throw down for DC dominance

So is this the most coverage they've ever gotten, or what?
Pink polo and Cubs hat? Guarantee you I hate that guy.
While Something to Ponder did not achieve what they had set out to do, people did listen.
Will, where is the "God Awful Music" tag?
