LA Woman is great of course, but Roadhouse Blues? Peace Frog? The Spy? Indian Summer? C'mon you know the truth! Texas Radio and the Big Beat, the title track, Riders on the Storm, Cars Hiss by my Window (great title!), Love Her Madly, Been Down So Long. Factor in that Morrison was a puddle of alcoholic goo by then with hard time in a Florida jail facing him.
Best Doors song...
All 17 minutes.
Btw, was there ever a celebrity who's look changed as quickly and completely as Jim Morrison? In 1966, he looked like a Greek god, by 1971 he looked like a homeless guy hanging out at a bus terminal. Truth be told, "fat" Jim was just as cool to me as "beautiful" Jim.

That might be best version of The Celebration... I've ever heard. That's the one from Felt Forum in New York, right? Truthfully, the best Doors album is American Prayer, but I know it's not for everyone. Love it. My cousin gave me his copy of No One Here Gets Out Alive back in 1980 and I was hooked on The Doors and Morrison ever since.

Best part about watching Lakers lose? Noticing that Lebron's not even sitting on the bench anymore late in the game. Bolting before "his" team finishes out their loss. What a great teammate, what a great leader.....
Don't worry, Luke....it won't be your problem much longer.

Manly vs Roosters. Literally can't even watch it. Carlton vs Essendon used to be the same, but it's become the gift that keeps on giving in recent years. Whenever you want Essendon to suffer an humiliating defeat, just wait for the otherwise hapless Carlton to get a crack at them.

NFL - Patriots/Eagles. The only matchup in which I root for the Pats.
NHL - Blackhawks/Bruins - both teams can go to hell as far as I’m concerned. Gun to my head, go Hawks.
NBA - Lakers/Warriors - I’ll take Golden State.
MLB - Red Sox/Yankees - I actually prefer the Yankees.
Premier League - Man United/Chelsea - yuck. The only time I’d ever root for United.

Red Sox/Yankees and Duke/North Carolina because whenever they play talking heads have to talk about it like it's the most important thing ever and that there just isn't anything like it. I mean it's not like the Red Sox and Yankees won't play each other another 15 times this season but nope, they've gotta remind us just how important this matchup is. Then with Duke/UNC sorry but no regular season game in NCAA basketball could ever be as important as the talking heads try and make it out to be. Wake me up when it's the tournament. And every game HAS to be on national television like the rest of the country gives a crap.

Any combo of the Redskins, Cowboys, and Giants playing each other.
Any powerhouse division I college football team playing the likes of Eastern Montana Baptist Community College for the Blind and puffing out their chests like they just beat the ‘85 Bears.
Red Sox vs. Yankees.
Any combo of the Jets, Bills, and Dolphins playing another meaningless game for the last two decades.
Bengals vs. Browns (pre-Baker Mayfield at least)
Cubs vs. Cardinals

If two teams I hate are playing each other, I'm not watching the game. Call me crazy.

If that was my policy I'd miss out on some very entertaining games, like last year's super bowl. To be honest I don't 'hate' that many teams so it's not a serious concern for me. But no matter how competitive the game may be, I'm not going to find it compelling if I legitimately cannot stand either team. I just wouldn't watch the game if I truly disliked both teams (even the Super Bowl).

Phillies - Nationals Yankees vs Phillies/Nationals
The Braves don't bother me as much because I really enjoy watching them play. Even back in the 90s when they made the Mets their bitch every single day, it was awesome tuning in to watch Greg Maddux, John Smoltz and even Met destroyer Chipper Jones. Tom Glavine can go fuck himself though.

So I'm sitting here watching Sixers/Lakers on tnt right now. I can't think of two NBA teams I hate more. When either of these teams lose, I automatically laugh. I'm happy watching Lebron on the bench, I don't feel bad for their injuries, I encourage more to happen. So who do I root for when they play each other? Well, the Sixers of course, but if Ben Simmons snaps his ankle during the game, Hey Party On Garth! That's a win-win at the Millar home office. So for you all, what matchups in sports fit the bill for you in this kind of thing. And who do you pick for the lesser of two evils? NHL- Flyers/Canadiens, once again I gotta take Philly NFL- Steelers/Broncos, jeez I guess Steelers MLB- not sure who I hate like the Yankees, pretty much impossible. When Buck was with the O's, there was that, but he's gone. Maybe the smelly A's?? Yeah that could work What say you? I hate it when any American League teams play National League teams during the regular season. Interleague play has run its course. Let's go back to the two leagues and make the World Series special again.

NHL - Blackhawks vs. Penguins vs. Red Wings vs. Flyers vs. Rangers vs. Bruins vs. Capitals on NBC. Yeah we get it, 'grow the game' with the same m-fing teams on f'ing national television you idiots. Put them outdoors for the 17th time, maybe it'll keep fresh? Put the Sharks vs. Lightning vs. Kings vs. Wild vs. Islanders or something fresh.
MLB - Cardinals vs. Cubs. Omg just stop, nobody cares.
NBA - Star player vs. former team. The NBA has cornered the market on hype for this asinine premise.
NFL - Bengals vs. Titans vs. Colts vs. Texans vs. Jets etc... usually AFC Wild Card wkend opening drivel.

Ravens/Steelers (under the right circumstances, a Ravens win ain't that bad) Cowboys/Redskins (is it required that a matchup be shown in primetime?) Red Sox/Yankees (does every regular season series require a national TV broadcast?)
