WTF?? The intro to NBC's brand-new Sunday Night Football features some blonde bimbo covering a Joan Fucking Jett song.

*throws penalty flag*

Which one?

Which bimbo, or which song? I didn't recognize the bimbo. The song, "I Hate Myself for Loving You."

I'm going to go pout in the corner.

I'd finally gotten that damn song out of my head after hearing it earlier today and there it was again... wanna hear my version? (no, you do not :)

Yea, the bimbo.

The Bimbo is Pink, Pup. Pink is the new Joan. Same deal politically, same music only more urban.

Embrace the Pink, Mudpuppie, embrace the Pink.

Pink is the new Joan.

That hurt me physically.

To be honest, I think Pink is the new Pat (Benatar), and maybe then some. Same pop milieu, same dancey influences, same "hear me roar" feminism. Not that much real glass-ceiling-smashing or anything, though.

See, the New Pat Benatar I could get behind.

But (as much as I love LT and I know he didn't mean anything by it), I refuse to name a new JFJ because I refuse to believe there's an old one.

I'm stubborn that way. But you probably knew that.

'tis better for the new Pat Benetar covering Joan Jett, than the new Joan Jett covering Pat Benetar.
