Receiver Rap...

Gail Freund, Bears Superfan

Did all of you know Mike Hass has a rap song?
From Wikipedia:

Rap song
Hass also holds the distinction of being the only college football player to ever have a professionally made rap song about him. KFXX 1080 "The Fan"'s "Sports Saturday" co-host Gavin Dawson and producer Jason Peterson wrote the lyrics to the song, entitled "Pac-10, Mike Hass", and sent them to United Stations in New York. United Stations hired artists to perform the song, remixing it to the song "Back Then" by rapper Mike Jones. This caused a brief controversy concerning Hass' NCAA elegibility, and Glasgow had to take it off the air and their website after Oregon State's compliance director called, saying that the song could be in violation of NCAA rules. Glasgow stated that there was no marketing or profit being made from the song, and after OSU conferred with the NCAA, they allowed the station to put it back on the air.[7]

Lawrence Holmes played it during his Bear Report on the Boers and Bernstein show the other night. You can hear it on the www.670thescore.com. podcast. Not bad.
