Jay, here.
For every Rocky, there’s a Mickey. Rambo had Colonel Trautman. And The Bad News Bears tolerated Buttermaker.
As Josh Wilcox explained in his origin story of “Sea Bass”, he had Joe Giansante.
Ever the emotional leader, Joe wants to rally the troops one last time.
Sea Bass Comeback In The Making?

Memories. Water colored memories, of the way we were. Like Rocky, Rambo, The Bad News Bears and even the new Indiana Jones, once (or four times for that matter) was simply not enough. The story is never complete until the star figure closes the book, ends the speculation of what happened with a resounding statement of dominance, heart and desire.
Sea Bass must rise.
The greatest leaders and achievers in history were those who were propped up by an adoring public. It is now time we do the same. Josh Wilcox is one of the greatest football players in Oregon history. His falling down on his arse out of his stance on the winning drive against Oregon State ranks nearly equal to Kenny Wheaton’s scoring sprint to preserve the win over Washington. If you
close your eyes hard enough, you will see it in your memory.
That moment is only exceeded by Sea Bass taking the ring at the Lane County Fairgrounds, with thousands of sign toting, tooth missing, sleeve ripping, mullet styling, old Tennessee hat on the fishing guy wearing, jean holing, Dr. Pepper overdosing fans screaming one name in unison. As Sea Bass was carried out on the stretcher, one fan in tears, caught by a local news camera, hysterical and wondering if he’d ever walk again. He did. And now the chance exists for him to emerge again, a uniter in this divided community, bringing people from one segment of life together.
Sea Bass.
You can hear it now.
Sea BASS
Back at the fair grounds; ONE NIGHT ONLY!
SEA BASS!
Ravishing Rick Rude, Playboy Buddy Rose, Rowdy Roddy Piper, Super Fly Snuka and Cowboy Frankie Layne. Like the musical “The Producers”, a one night trip down memory lane that would turn into a never-close event that could change the entertainment landscape in the state of Oregon.
So join me now, oh Duck fans; Sea Bass, we need you. We want you back. The time has come for your triumphant return and we simply say in unison;
Kick His A$$ Sea Bass!
Very truly yours,
Joe Giansante

Joe,
Get lost man. Oregon fans everywhere are embarrassed by you. You think you’re the Duck Superfan? Then do us all a favor and retire.

Ha ha ha,
I thought you must be into wrestling Joe. When you’re calling the football games you definitely have your Jesse Ventura moments. Usually after an Oregon touchdown. Way to stay unbiased.

Sorry you feel that way. If my dedication, your opinion of my work ability and strong feelings for Oregon is cause for embarrassment, I can live with that.. and..come on, lighten up.. we’re just trying to have some fun. Josh and I go way back and I helped him launch his wrestling career…

Come on guys, give Joe a break. I think he does a great job. I Met him after the civil war a few years and he was a down to earth guy. Something that is slowly disappearing in the current state of affairs of Oregon athletices.
Oregon is becoming to college football what Las Vegas is to family vacations.

Well, at least he’s not on the Bellotti show anymore. That was just too painful to watch.

Give Joe a break. You’d all freak out if our local announcers were NOT homers. If an announcer agreed that it was a good call, when us Duck fans thought it wasn’t, he’d hang by the noose.
Shut up and enjoy Joe. He loves the Ducks, he’s pissed when they stink and happy when they’re rolling. Just like me, just like you.
