Goofy Playoff Theme Songs - 2000: Who Let the Cards Out

by Zoop on Mar 11, 2008 8:10 PM EDT

Hey gang,

I'm Zoop. Chances are if you know who I am, you either frequent Matthew Leach's blog or you've been offended/tickled by some of my inane offerings in other people's topics. Or you just notice all the +1s I give out--yeah, I earned them, and I've taken many cold showers trying to forget how I earned them.

But that's not the point. I made a video dedicated to the Cardinals using the Baha Men parody of "Who Let the Dogs Out" titled "Who Let the Cards Out"... For those of you who remember (2? 4?), it was the playoff theme for the 2000 Cardinals, who as we all know were cut down by the Mets in the NLCS.

Here's the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O_PwTGK4iwc

While I have over 150 videos on YouTube, they're normally shot in lo-fi style with my Sony Cybershot, usually me speaking over a video game (I work at IGN.com, which you might know of if you're around my age), so you may not be interested in that, or my potty mouth. But hopefully you'll find this interesting. Pass it around to co-workers, friends, family, etc. And yeah, I drew those faces on KGJr and Sosa. What can I say? I'm an artist.

Oh, Sweet F*%k!

I forgot how annoying that song was. I do, however, still have my "Who Let The Cards Out"/"MVP" placard that the p-d were giving away before the games in the NLDS.

(And, yes, I still think Edmonds should have won the MVP this year and I will not be swayed otherwise.)

Juan Gonzalez actually doesn't know the meaning of the word "retirement."

yes, very annoying

And for the record, I'd like to forget about JD Drew.

Wasn't 04...

I deny all knowledge of specifics.

You work at IGN?

Awesome dude! I go there everytime I need some gaming info!

Awesome

I work at IGN DVD nowadays, so I'm less on the games side of things, but I used to write strategy guides.

Good job! ... That was very entertaining ...

Thanks for sharing ... my all time favorite playoff theme song has always been 'The Heat Is On' (Glen Frey) from the 80s. I still play it before Cardinal games sometimes.

i remember the tony larussa

set to "macarena" - this would have been like my sophomore year of high school, so like 1996

cardinals are in first and they're gonna win the pennant
tony is the guy that is gonna help them win it
squeezin' out wins like an automatic juicer
tooooooooony larussa (ay-i!)

does this mean boras is human?

THE METS

Unrelated to the Cards songs, but the "Everybody Clap Your Hands" was THE most annoying thing ever. And sadly, the Cardinals stadium staff has adopted the dumb clap.

Whatever happened to the good ol' days of the old man on the piano rocking out between innings and starting rally claps?
