Jake must have been the only one that could have taken Clarence's place without a full on riot from the E-Street faithful.

That answers that. I was just wondering if it was like a Trademark thing and AV Club owes him a quarter every time someone writes it, like how Pat Riley gets a chunk of change every time someone says "three-pete."

"courtship of pixie-haired dream girl"

Eh, I had both. They kind of ran together at some point, like most Adam Sandler things.

What I'm reading is we all bought They're All Gonna Laugh at You, listened to it on repeat for years ("Piece of Shit Car" was my jam in high school), but we all hate Adam Sandler now.

The Aerosmith song was a live version of "Dream On," which wasn't a bad version of it at all.

The soundtrack was the tape I played while mowing the lawn, and it was a perfect mixture of teenage testosterone and anger at my parents without getting into Danzig's "Mother" territory.

In the context of Heavyweights, yes that was the golden age of heavyweight boxing in America. But this was really the first time that middle and lightweights were featured so prominently and that's what they were getting at.
