Sheep in the year 2015

I talked myself out of saying Pinto.

Seriously thought about Blue Bayou, partly because I had a crush on Linda Ronstadt when I was younger and the old Sportscenter line about a Linda Ronstatdt Fastball. . . Blue Bayou.

 

First time I heard that saying re: sports was Tim McCarver in one of the '80s World Series.

Sometime to the effect, (insert pitcher) loved Linda Ronstadt because that fastball "blue by you" har har har. Derp.

 

1. Pain
2. Pandora
3. Suite Judy Blue Eyes (completely forgot about Blue Suede Shoes)
4. Jack. Nicholson
5. Gremlin (was debating between this and Pinto and went the wrong way)
6. Springsteen
7. Olive
8. Parks & Recreation
9. Selma (went through the Oscar thread too quickly, thought this one was getting the most SJ love)
10. Seahawks

 

Looks like we'll have a lot of answers for No. 1.

And I can't believe I forgot about "Blue Suede Shoes" ... and put "Blue Christmas" instead.

Massive Sheep fail.

 

Other than #1, I'm seeing a lot of familiar answers. I went with heart attack for #1.

 

I need to lie down. Week 2 is giving me a headache.

 

Alcohol, my friend Rip, alcohol. It soothes your sheep troubles.

 

I may be mistaken, but I think we've had the Jack question before. Have a nagging memory of being pissed because one of the top answers (if not THE top) was "Jack Kennedy."

 

BTW, in the defense of "fibromyalgia"... it struck me as one of those nebulous illnesses with vague symptoms and no real diagnosis that they LOVE. Cancer? Heart attack? There's a definite diagnosis, it's not something you can milk forever to get sympathy if you don't really suffer from it.

Oh, well.

 

Oh boy. Oh boy. I've been out of the game too long. I'll keep the cellar nice and tidy.

 

I had to fill my answers out on my iPad in a parking lot on Friday night. I will have two one pointers, for sure, and will definitely need this to be a drop week.

 

For No. 1 I went with the symptom ("this pain in my <fill in body part> - could it be a tumor, could it be cancer, could it be something else") instead of going with the potential diagnosis they were seeking.
