Ozzy Osborne

Anyone see Ozzy Osborne singing Take Me Out to the Ballgame at the Cubs / Dodgers game last Sunday? 
It was a classic rendition and I can't believe he never used the F word...here's the play by play.
Chicago -- Ozzy Osbourne, the sometimes pixilated rock 'n'; roller, turned up Sunday at Wrigley Field to sing during the seventh-inning stretch and, according to the Chicago Tribune, it was Ozzy as usual. Here's how it went as Ozzy, accompanied by wife Sharon, set out to sing "Take Me Out to the Ball Game":
Chip Caray: "All right, Chicago. Here comes Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne."
Ozzy: "All right, Chicago. I want to hear a real crazy crowd start singing. Are you ready? Are you ready? I can't hear you. Are you ready?
"One. Two. Three.
"Let's go out to the ballgame. Let's go out to the bluhhhhhn.
"Take me a ee-yan eeya (humming) the field.
"I don't care if I ahh-uhn ack.
"Da da da da duh da da da eam. Duh ee, da da da da dahhh.
"For a fee, two, three strikes you're out at the old ballgame. Yeahhhhhh."
Sharon: "Now let's get some runs."
Ozzy: "Yeah. Let's get some runs."
Near the end of the broadcast, WGN-TV showed a replay of legendary Los Angeles Dodgers announcer Vin Scully giving the thumbs up after Osbourne's rendition. "If you get the seal of approval from Hall of Famer Vin Scully, you know you're doing OK," Caray said.

I love Ozzy even though I cant understand a word he says. He is almost as hard to understand as Bob Dylan but ya gotta love em.

Ahhh, Ozzy goofing is nothing new, he sings like crap in concert for about 30 seconds and then belts out that trade mark voice as a joke.
Anyone that says Ozzy cant sing ought to be shot!!! (Not you Jim)
One of the five best voices in rock EVER!!

My favorite Ozzy line of all time... He's looking at a stage being set up for an upcoming concert. He turns to Sharon and says "Bubbles? Bubbles? I'm the Prince of f'ing Darkness, I can't have bubbles!"

My question is how in the hell can that guy possibly sing? I mean he is very entertaining, but c'mon......
He can barely speak or move, and I think he has Parkinson Disease.
Also, he once snorted ants. That's right....ants.

I hate rock but love Ozzy.
I'm pretty sure that's the way I looked some years ago when I woke up at 3:00 AM or so under the tree in my back yard.

Honestly, how can he sing? He can't even say a sentence. He can barely speak, let alone walk. Perhaps in the 70's and 80's he was able to perform, but cmon, give me a fuggin break. The man is a poster boy for "Just say no"
Remember, the man snorted ants, bit the head off a live dove at a record executive meeting, and of course the infamous bat incident.
I love the show though. It is very entertaining.
