Is it bad that I heard "winning" and thought Charlie Sheen?

I honestly love this OO. Sure, it's kind of gimmicky, but such a natural speaker. Should have placed higher than 3rd.

@lisachanggg i don't know, i kinda like it. It is original.

I'd vote for John Egan for president

@tgjdlc It was "Picasso at the Lapin Agile"

@tgjdlc Interesting, I was hoping since he has 01' he might have 00' or 99'. If anyone has those it would be awesome if you sent them to him xD

[tgjdlc]

@tgjdlc Or at least I think it was "The Midlife Crisis of Dionysus"... it could have been "Picasso at the Lapin Agile" I don't remember for sure. 

[tgjdlc]

@crazy50128 I wouldn't know how to get the videos, they're way old-school, orlmgc4ever would have to dive deep into his Rolodex to see if anyone has a copy he can put up...

What I know is that John Egan won the DI National Championship with "Inside Al" and the HI National Championship with "The Midlife Crisis of Dionysus"

[crazy50128]

If you have the HI or DI done by him I would love to see those.

You guys should go to nfltv.org and watch the 1999 Oratory Final round... specifically Jarod Weiss "Whatever" and Josh Gad "Hooah!" two of the best OO's of all time.
