Say what you will about those Lazy Tuesday goofs, but at least they didn't work too hard at looking ridicuwockle. These guys, on the other hand, seem to gone through Herculean efforts to look achingly dopey. I hope these dancers got paid.

Daniel, how much of this did you actually memorize before you started filming? I just noticed (I've seen this video like 20 times, I love it) that you've got a cheat sheet under the table on "Don't root for UNC either". I mean, that's...amazing. Makes me want to be pro-abortion, almost.

Did you hear that radio interview? It reminded me how amusing it was to read all those comments on YouTube from those taking it far seriously than was appropriate. Additionally, I think the other entry's in the Narnia Rap Battle (www.narniarapbattle.com) were mentioned. But specifically, Lazy River: http://youtube.com/watch?v=rrVicGALKd0 Yes it is my video and I may invite similar death threats, but hey it gives everyone something to do for fifteen minutes.

ooh! I found my comment! let's see... "whittlz - I am sorry that you were forced into watching American Idol. I wish you could have watched some sports." aw, that's sweet! thanks. I was watching sports earlier-- screaming at PJ Tucker to SHOOT THE FUCKING BALL-- but I live on the west coast at the moment and eventually the sports just run out. it's the saddest damn thing ever. ANYhoo.

A fine point, Slickbomb. These Rapping Hillbillies pulled off 45+ comments. Some amazing happenings have passed through these Deadspin pages...Lil Ronnie, Drunken Kyle Orton, Drunken Big Ben, Tanya Harding Fantasy Pages, John Rocker's Match.com page...and none of them have captured the hearts and minds of Deadspin readers like these inbred Kentucky retards. Kudos to you, you Bluegrass Bumpkins.

Wow, wow, wow. I just read his responses on the blog and apparently, not only does the dude have no sense of humor, he's quite possibly anti-Semitic. That's awesome. Humorless anti-Semites are my favorite kind of anti-Semites. Also, I wonder if the kids are aware that they can record the audio and video separately and mix them together on this thing called the "computer".

OK -- I ate right, trained hard and I still almost didn't make it through this video. Imagine my surprise during the credits to find out that Daniel S. and Bud S. were the stars, but Daniel S. and Keith C. wrote the lyrics. WTF Bud S.? How bad were your lyrics that you had to use Keith C.'s! Or was Keith C. just not photogenic enough for this endeavor?

I'll be honest here: I was involved in a few stunts with a video camera back when I was in college too. But I'd be willing to bet that an outsider - shown our video - would if not be mildly amused, at least recognize why WE found it funny. I am hardly surprised the auteur behind this video reacted as he did on his blog. It's clear he is comically challenged.

This seems to be the exact kind of thing you would get from a blog that by it's own description focuses on the following topics: --The Kentucky Democrat-- "Taking a serious look at: Kentucky Politics, Entertainment News, and those national issues that are really turned into wedge issues...not to mention the St. Louis Cardinals and Kentucky Wildcats" Move over Tonya Harding fan fantasy, I've got a new page I need to bookmark.

Actually, I just took the video from YouTube, which encourages free use. (This is why YouTube is awesome.) I'm not the one who loaded it up there; if you wanted, you could put this video on your site too. The issue is with whoever loaded it onto YouTube ... which is not us.

There's probably some sort of rights issue at stake here. The "rap" is terrible but I too checked out their site and they're kinda pissed that it's on your site. Keeping it in proportion, SNL is far worse: one good sketch on network TV doesn't make up for the rest of their material being dire each and every week. At least no one was paying these kids...I hope.

If it wasn't called "Lazy Tuesday" you wouldn't even connect it to Lazy Sunday -- a truly hilarious video. It's so bad it doesn't even work as a mean-spirited look-how-dumb-us-UK-fans-are bit done by Louisville fans. It makes not just Kentucky but all adjacent states look like a bunch of idiots.

That was bad on purpose, right? Like, that was intentionally designed to be the dumbest thing that ever existed, right? I don't know what I liked more - the fact that nothing rhymed, the fact that they didn't stay on beat, or that the quick cuts sometimes obscured the beginnings and ends of their lines. Some things are so bad, they're good. This is so bad, it's terrible.

Hercules McAwesome — Wed, 01 Mar 2006 17:11:32 EST

I don't really know what to say here. I am not sure if this was done as a "special" project for UK's "Everything's Not Unpossible!" outreach program, so I don't want to rip it before I know all the facts. It does, however, make me sad that we have great young American men fighting for Halliburton overseas, while other young men are doing...this, and no one's shooting at them. The world is funny that way, I guess. By the way, Will, I think your headline on this is off. This isn't an indictment of white people trying to rap. I doubt these two have ever seen a rap video or heard a rap song when this strange bird was hatched. After all, there were no rhymes, even when they were "rapping" off of cheat sheets.
