The Super Bowl Shuffle: The Greatest Music Video EVER!

“We’re so bad, we know we’re good. Blowing your mind like we knew we would!”

220px-Chicago_shuffleIn honor of the Superbowl this Sunday, here’s the greatest music video ever: The Super Bowl Shuffle.

Why don’t more Superbowl teams do this?

The Super Bowl Shuffle” was a rap song recorded by players of the Chicago Bears football team during their winning 1985 season right before  their appearance in Super Bowl XX. Basically, the video features football players with no sense of rhythm or singing ability rapping about, well, football. The Super Bowl Shuffle  featured breakout performances by Jim McMahon and William “The Fridge” Perry.

Here’s the video in all its 7-minutes of glory.

Trivia note: Jim McMahon and The Fridge weren’t at the original taping of the video and were later edited in via chromakey. Why aren’t the New Orleans Saints or the Indianapolis Colts cranking out very low budget music videos? Come’on guys!
