Acts of Awesomeness: George Brett Edition

We've debating putting up this video... on one side... this is the hero we have idolized since we found out what the game of baseball is... I mean.... the dude is awesome. From his playboy days in the early '80s where everyone in KC has at least one Brett story.... to the shear agelessness of the fact he has 3 different AL Batting Titles in 3 different decades....

That Joe Esposito song, "You're The Best Around" (from the movie Karate Kid for you peeps in Story City)... yeah... pretty sure it was secretly written for #5. Now... I could go on forever... really I could...

SIDE NOTE: Quick shout out to a loyal reader that finally admitted the Brett was better than Robin Yount... seriously dude, took you 15 plus years to admit... but I guess its the destination, not the journey on this one... goo job out of you Scoop.

Anywho... this video... while it may make our hero look a little wierd... after much debate with the editorial department at QCI... we felt the pros outweighed the cons... and thus came to conclusion that this truely is... an Act of Awesomness... let's go to the tape...


I know... the audio is a little scratchy... so you may have to crank it up... Best quote, "So who's pitching today?"

Here's the tune that we're pretty sure was written for George Brett...
