This is ten percent luck, twenty percent skill
Fifteen percent concentrated power of will
Five percent pleasure, fifty percent pain
And a hundred percent reason to remember the name!
The jingle goes so well with football that it leads into the action between commercials. But you may not know that Linkin Park / Fort Minor's Mike Shinoda wrote "Remember the Name" about making music with his friends.

Betty Friedan died yesterday on her 85th birthday. When I was 16, promising Mr. Tambourine Man I'd go wandering, The Feminine Mystique was the voice of the Mother who said, "We couldn't, you can, go, run!"
"A woman has got to be able to say, and not feel guilty, 'who am I, and what do I want out of life?' "
If you think that's self-evident and obvious, you can largely thank this "seminal" work of Betty Friedan for making it so. Her New York Times obit recounts her trail.
