Now there's a marsh-wiggle (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marshwiggle#M) response to good news, if I've ever seen one! :)

Good for John! Here's to an injury free season.

Was this an expected verdict as far as scholly count ?

[TheUnnamedSooner]

This is excellent news!

[EstablishedSooner1967]

That positive news for the day

[SouthFortySooner]

Oh yeah. Salve

[picasso]

Good for him! I felt for the guy seeing him interviewed after the Tulsa game.

We're pulling for you John!

[soonerhubs]

I am so excited to hear this news. His return is a blessing to that line.

[Curly Bill]

Nice

[CatfishSooner]

We shall be stacked at DE next year...

[Civicus_Sooner]

Woo Hoo

[devOUt]

Good for him! I hope he plays a complete season and has a great year.

[Collier11]

Williams, Washington, English, Beal...yowsers!

[Sooner_Havok]

Couldn't have happened to a nicer kid. That being said, if he gets hurt again, I think I might get physically ill.

[OU-HSV]

Good news....good news!

I can hear the Jaws theme playing already!!!






...for those of you who dont know John Williams is a film composer and he wrote the score for Jaws!

Dorky nerd nerd nerd! :D

granger?

[Desert Sapper]

The DEs are looking pretty good for next year. Just gotta hope some guys step up at every other position (especially LB and secondary).

That dont bode well for OL's comprised of slightly slow a foot dudes

[DBrown]

OOPS....this'll show I'm shallow...I was thinking of composer/director
John Williams of the Boston Pops.
Too bad.
6th year of eligibility....wow....hardly ever happens.

[cvsooner]

True, Williams is coming back, and so is Indiana Jones. Williams is scheduled to start recording the score for "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull" in late February-early March.

The film opens May 8, 2008.

Interesting trivia: the four notes of the 'Raiders March' (the Indiana Jones theme) are really close to the opening four notes of 'Boomer Sooner....'

[stoops the eternal pimp]

i did not know that

I was thinking more along the lines of Colt McCoy hearing the jaws theme right before Williams eats his lunch. :D

The only movie music he didn't write, Danny Elfman wrote.

Or Jerry Goldsmith or Elmer Bernstein or James Newton Howard or Bruce Broughton or Basil Poledouris or James Horner or...

Indeed. The Conan the Barbarian theme is one of my alltime favorites. It stakes the claim to badass.

[cvsooner]

Same here. Unfortunately he, Goldsmith, and Bernstein have all passed away. Williams has a birthday this month. I think he's turning 76.

Sure. It seems that every time I watch a movie it's Elfman or Williams. Those dudes have street cred though. I wonder if Elfman can play DE. We could use an inside guy though.

[cvsooner]

I think Elfman plays guitar.

He was the lead singer of Oingo Boingo, you know.
