Florida's Vanilla Ice singing "The Macarena-Tainted Love" remix looped


I've never been of fan of Tim Tebow or Florida or the SEC for that matter.  I can't stand a QB who acts like a RB, (I'm sorry that's not a mobility, but lack of throwing ability) however my heart does goes out to him.  One thing that stuck with me is after losing to the Pats in the AFC Divisional round, he actually walked out helmet off and was a good sportsman .

Surprised that no one has been able to utilize him, he is NOT a good QB, he's proved that with all his inaccuracies and fundamental issues,  a full back-TE, yes!  But what he does have is leadership, along with "it" which rallies players to come together, which any team needs. 

Coach McCoy was able to harness his assets for the best interest of the team, (The Broncos) I had thought John Fox was the brilliant mind behind, credit due to Broncos for trusting the utilization which equalled post season appearances.  A sign of great coaching, ability  to utilize your resources !  Hat is off!  But don't think that SD will grab him either.


Jets unable to incorporate, all they did is add more media attention and help frustrate the locker room along with Mark Sanchez.

Pats, I thought the brilliant Belicheck would of turned him into a FB, even  TE, especially with all of Brady's losses in receiving targets.  Once again, CUT!

Reports that Tim was even practicing with a trainer at the USC baseball outfield, pretty heartbreaking and has yielded notta.

I feel like I'm watching  a *One-hit wonder special on VH1

Jacksonville fans vying for their Florida's Milli Vanilli to help rescue their Jags, who are considered the worst team in the NFL at present, with a 20 point underdog line going into Seattle this week.


The perfect analogy of how difficult it is to play in the NFL and the challenges from college to the pros.
Will he ever play again?  Or is he truly "a one-hit wonder"?? I guess time will tell.


*A one-hit wonder is a person or act known mainly for only a single success. The term is most often used to describe music performers with only one hit single or for having one signature song that overshadows their other work. However, the term is used as well to describe other, related phenomenon such as a software company that only has one widely successful release and an athlete known for only one major career event.


VH1's list of "100 greatest one-hit wonders"[edit source | editbeta]

In 2002, the American cable network VH1 aired a countdown of the VH1's 100 Greatest One-hit Wonders, hosted by William Shatner.[7] It listed musicians with only one American hit, regardless of international success, which has been substantial and long-lived for musicians like a-ha and Nena (see below). In fact, if the "only one American hit" criterion had been strictly applied, a-ha and Falco would not be eligible for the list, as they each actually had two top-20 US hits—although as noted above their second hits were greatly overshadowed in the US by the prior hit. The same goes for Vanilla Ice: his follow up to his #1 hit was a #4 hit titled, "Play That Funky Music". Gerardo also had another Top 15 hit. Los del Río likewise had two top 40 hits, though both were versions of "Macarena."
The countdown also omitted acts such as Jimi Hendrix and Grateful Dead who, while technically charting with only one single, became too well known for their entire bodies of work to merit inclusion on the list. They did get mentioned, though, in a short segment of one-hit wonders that had popular followings. The top ten consisted of:
  1. Los del Río — "Macarena" (1996)
  2. Soft Cell — "Tainted Love" (1982)
  3. Dexys Midnight Runners – "Come On Eileen" (1983)
  4. Right Said Fred — "I'm Too Sexy" (1992)
  5. Toni Basil — "Mickey" (1982)
  6. Baha Men — "Who Let the Dogs Out?" (2000)
  7. Vanilla Ice — "Ice Ice Baby" (1990)
  8. a-ha — "Take On Me" (1985)
  9. Gerardo — "Rico Suave" (1990)
  10. Nena — "99 Luftballons" (1984)
