Star Wars World Series Intro Music

I was listening to game one of the World Series as I was driving home and caught the player introductions.  The game was played at Yankee Stadium and the Philadelphia Phillies were introduced with Star Wars' "The Imperial March" and the Yankees with the heroic "The Throne Room/End Titles". 

The Yankees are at home and they want to be the heroes, but if there's one team that is the epitome of evil empire, it's got to be the NY Yankees.  The Yankees have played in 40 of the 105 World Series, winning 26 times. 

The Phillies should play Star Wars music when the series moves to Philly, but play "Parade of the Ewoks" when they introduce the Yankees.  That would be pretty funny.

As I was looking for musical examples for this post, I came across this two piano arrangement of Star Wars themes.  Impressive.  Most impressive.

Well, if there is one thing you and I can agree on, it's that the Yanks are EVIL. (I can't STAND the Yankees)

The Journey is the Reward


It's a Chinese proverb and the way I would like to look at the world. Too often we're so worried about getting somewhere in life that we fail to see the beauty and humor in the world passing us by.

Battlestar Galactica: the Complete Series Blu-ray is amazing. The sad part is that owning it makes me realize that the series is over.
