After reading the following excerpt from a Kreis interview, I suggest the following song in '08

here's the excerpt:

"Kreis freely acknowledges he's trying to build RSL in his image. The Utahns have struggled since a horrendous opening draft, going 21-50-23 over three seasons. Kreis has prioritized commitment and work ethic, and the search for players that fit his vision continues.

"We're getting there, and it has more to do with me than anything else he says. We feel good about t[he] group right now and the prospect of adding more players like (me). To be blunt, that's what it's going to take. I'm not going to make apologies for it. I am trying to put together this team in my likeness.

"There's one certainty about this job. I know for sure I'll be fired. When that day comes, I want to be able to say I did everything my way. I made my choices, so I don't have any regrets.

And here are the lyrics:

My Way...Frank Sinatra

And now, the end is near;
And so I face the final curtain.
My friend, Ill say it clear,
Ill state my case, of which Im certain.

Ive lived a life thats full.
Ive traveled each and evry highway;
And more, much more than this,
I did it my way.

Regrets, Ive had a few;
But then again, too few to mention.
I did what I had to do
And saw it through without exemption.

I planned each charted course;
Each careful step along the byway,
But more, much more than this,
I did it my way.

Yes, there were times, Im sure you knew
When I bit off more than I could chew.
But through it all, when there was doubt,
I ate it up and spit it out.
I faced it all and I stood tall;
And did it my way.

Ive loved, Ive laughed and cried.
Ive had my fill; my share of losing.
And now, as tears subside,
I find it all so amusing.

To think I did all that;
And may I say - not in a shy way,
No, oh no not me,
I did it my way.

For what is a man, what has he got?
If not himself, then he has naught.
To say the things he truly feels;
And not the words of one who kneels.
The record shows I took the blows -
And did it my way!

Oh my god, that is seriously scary. He thinks he is God, or Hitler. We need a new name for our team. The Fourth Reich or something.

And the thought of having 11 little kreises running around on the pitch makes me want to puke more than just watching Super Size Me did.

Good song tho.

I made this a long time ago but it seems most appropriate at the moment...

Holy shit!!! Does he have any clue as to how bad that sounds?

I still love that pic as it really sums it all up.

Come down off the cross, we could use the wood...

Very good!!! ...LOL

Now if only we could resurrect Sinatra and Sid Vicious to sing that song before and after each match.

while that song would sound great, I just remember the trouble with singing the rewritten "blame Canada"

Could My way become RSL's version of never walk alone?

I would approve heartily.

Double post FTW!

I like this 'version' even better lol....

especially the stand up and shout part.

You know, on rethinking it, I'd go with this version instead:

I watched that video the other night.....Funny how they just fell off the face of the planet. ..I actually like their music more now that I don't hear it every 5 minutes on the radio and TV.

Now that takes me back...

Shortened up a bit....Think we could give this a go now??
