Drew's Oregon Ducks Playlist

If you've been living under a rock for the past 6-8 weeks or have absolutely no interest in sports, you might be among the very few people who don't realize that our beloved Oregon Ducks are playing against the Auburn Tigers in the BCS Championship game on Monday. Suffice it to say, we are all very excited about the game and will be rooting like crazy for our Ducks.

Drew has a great teacher this year - a really good guy who was also Drew's teacher for fourth grade. One of the many reasons why Drew and his classmates (and their parents) like this teacher so much is because of the CD player he has in the classroom and the music that he often plays throughout the day. He even allows students to bring in their own music to join the playlist.

If I were a mathematician, the equation might look like this:

(Drew's love for the Ducks) + (the BCS Championship game on Monday) + (Drew's teacher allowing students to listen to music) = Drew's Awesome Oregon Ducks Playlist.

That's right...one of Drew's main request for this weekend was that I help him burn a CD full of all his favorite Duck songs so he could take it to school on Monday and play it all day long in anticipation of 'the Natty!

Here are the songs that made the playlist:

1. Call Me a Duck by On The Rocks
2. Green and Yellow by SpeedyGunz
3. University of Oregon Fight Song (original version)
4. I Smell Roses (I Love My Ducks) by Supwitchugirl
5. Return of the Quack by Supwitchugirl
6. Oregon Ducks Fight Song (electronic jazz version)

And, we also had to put I Gotta Feeling by the Black Eyed Peas on the mix, cause we are really hoping that Monday night will be "a good, good night..." The icing on the cake with this awesomeness is that Drew asked me to take him to school on Monday so we could blast the playlist from our car with the windows down as we rolled up to the school. Love this boy!
