Mets Get RickRoll'd
The Undrafted Free Agent —
The New York Mets were looking for a new song to play in the eighth inning. Instead, they got RickRoll'd. The Mets invited fans to vote for their favorite song to replace Sweet Caroline. An problem arose when FARK.com readers bombarded the Mets with votes for a write-in candidate: Rick Astley’s Never Gonna Give You Up. The Astley tune actually won. Listen and watch to the fans' reaction. The Mets will play the top six selections once apiece during the first six games of their home stand since the current song doesn't reflect ...

Shea Stadium Fans Disagree With The Internet [Rick Astley]
Deadspin —
As you might have seen by now, the Mets really were "Rick Rolled" yesterday with the playing of Rick Astley's "Never Gonna Give You Up" at Shea Stadium. If they're going by crowd reaction to decided what the permanent winner is ... it doesn't looks good for Mr. Astley.
On a positive note, maybe the crowd tonight will be more welcoming to Mr. Astley. (They're supposedly running all the songs for the next five nights.) We might dress up as Mr. Astley at the game tonight just to serve the cause.
Seriously, though, Rick Astley aside: Can Mets fans please ...

Orioles and Tigers Continue Heading in Opposite, Mind Blowing Directions
FanIQ Blog —
Two weeks ago I was certain of two predictions heading into this MLB season -- 1) Tigers would lead the league in Runs scored and 2) Orioles would suck.
Safe to say I wasn't alone with those assumptions, thus we're all feeling a little silly this morning as Baltimore sits at 6-1, atop the American League, while Detroit remains the only winless team in all of baseball.
What's going on?
Orioles 8, Rangers 1 - The formula appears to be just having fun, according the Aubrey Huff who having a silly start to the season. Four more RBIs Tuesday, brings his league leading total to 11. Brian Burress ...

... that the Wolfpack are having an online poll as to what should be played, and you’ll never believe it, but that dastardly Rick Astley is back up to his old tricks .

The NEXT: Completely Polarizing Societal Element
ESPNtheMag.com - MagDaily —
Visit the NEXT 2009 universe. The No. 15 hot Google search on the afternoon of January 16, 2009 was "Pelosi Rickroll," so naturally we had to, well, Google it. We found this, which is pretty funny. We've been rickrolled before—who hasn't?—so we wanted to see if anyone has linked the concept to sports. Found this post about the inherent life questions raised by the Rickroll, briefly considered our place in the universe, and then realized everything was OK again: New York Mets fans booed so loudly when "Never Gonna Give You Up" came on this past summer, you could barely hear ...
