Top Falcons draft picks Matt Ryan and Sam Baker received a hearty welcome to Atlanta, where they were quickly shuffled to the theater to stand in front of the cast of Oklahoma! "Wow, a performance just for us! Where do we sit?" "You don't sit. You must stand. Up front, stage center, facing the audience." No joke, this is the single most awkward thing I've seen in months, and it is a masterpiece of comedy.
Side note: like most sports fans, I know a lot about Broadway musicals. And I can assure you with 100% certainty that Oklahoma! is the single most fucking annoying musical in the history of mankind. The songs are irritating but catchy, it's about five and a half hours long, and there's a "dream ballet" at the end of the first act. A fucking dream ballet. About farmers and cowboys settling a Western state. Eat a dick, Rogers and Hammerstein.

I thought just the Sonics couldn't avoid the calling of gay cowboys?
i don't even really get it. He joined the Atlanta Falcons, right, and he's going to an "Oklahoma" musical? Why not just dump a bunch of Coke products on his head and call it a day.
Also, i'd bet you $500 that the theater is on a fucking street named "Peachtree."
Oklahoma! ? more like Okla-homo!

/to go with UU's comment.
No Oklahomo? Sorry wrong blog.
And is that Ray-Ray in the Falcon costume in the back, or did he just smoke a dub-rock before he went on stage?
"Eat a dick, Rogers and Hammerstein."
I'm pretty sure they beat you to the punch on that one.
@aslice:
100% correct.
…@aslice: on the P'tree part, that is.
you think that's awkward? try taking 12 bong hits of the sticky icky and stand up there for 'A streetcar name Desire' like I did. I was trippin'.

And Matt Ryan does his best Catholic school picture day smile.
Yes, Matt just like Fr. O'Callahan taught you, it's OK that he touched you, just smile.
They finally made a monkey out of me! I love you, Dr. Zaius!
More like Rogers and Homo-stein! Oh, did someone already make that joke? Um, did I mention "Roger" is a euphemism for sodomy? Anyone?
Flashing back to his high school days, you can tell that Sam Baker is using every ounce of willpower to resist kicking the shit out of those gay fags…

"Where was he when I was 13?"
“I know a lot about Broadway musicals”
Might as well say you fuckin’ swallow dude…….
best part is the 'good luck' at the end…might has well have wished cervical cancer on the chick in theatre terms.
I just like how half the population *cough* ufford *cough* think that "oklahomans" ride horses and covered wagons around.
No we just steal NBA teams and enjoy the nations lowest gas prices while laughing at those paying over 3.80 a gallon.
The musical still sucks. And Ufford I didn't forget that you use to live in the state, like that shithole of Lawton or Fort Sill.
That chick in the blue = nice sweater meat
