Cure for the August Sports Doldrums: 10 Great Arrested Development Clips

douche-chill-arrested-development-video-clips

Let’s be honest: every year August drags along in the sports world.

Sure, we have our baseball pennant races, but those don’t really heat up until September. Preseason football is here, but it sucks to watch. The most exciting event this weekend is the PGA Championship, being held right here in the wonderful state of Wisconsin, but as with any golf tournament I will only be watching if Tiger is in contention.

If you’re looking for relief from the August sports doldrums, you’re in luck this morning. What I always do when sports are in a bit of lull is watch TV shows on DVD.  And one of my favorite TV shows is “Arrested Development.”

The fact of the matter is that I am in Internet junkie and come across stuff all the time that I think readers will enjoy and, well, until I have another site to post this stuff on, it will continue to get dumped on MSF…and hopefully you will continue to be entertained by it.

Today, I stumbled across a video of some dudes doing an a capella version of “The Final Countdown” by Europe. This song has one of the most unique and recognizable synthesizer openings in the history of music and, for whatever reason, has always caused KVB and I to giggle like idiots whenever we hear it.

Because I am a blogger, which means I am trained to aggregate and create lists, I decided to spend a few productive moments this morning rounding up the greatest moments in the history of “The Final Countdown”.
