Shawn Andrews out for season, but music will live on
The news from the Philadelphia Eagles yesterday was a little surprising: tackle Shawn Andrews was placed on injured reserve, meaning he will not play football this season. I have a sneaking suspicion that Andrews is finished with football for good, at least with the Eagles. He has had back problems since training camp that have kept him out of action. But in addition, I am not so sure that he is passionate about playing football. His real passion seems to be his music.
Even if you aren’t an Eagles or a football fan, no doubt you will be entertained and/or amused by Shawn’s music videos which are currently on YouTube. Andrew’s stage name is E.D.I.D., which stands for Every Day I Do. The first song is called “Getting My Michael Phelps On” and the second song is “Mama Ima Rock Star”. It is clear that E.D.I.D. has a bright future ahead of him in music and he will now have plenty of time to get his Michael Phelps on. I would actually like to see some sort of collaboration between him and Michael Phelps in the future. Stay tuned for more YouTube videos and tweets from ShawnAndrews73.
Hahaha, I didn’t understand what the heck was up with the nearly 3 min long intro - til he started and I noticed there were no lyrics. Oh I’m sorry, he did throw in a “uh uh uh uh uh uh uh” - and I am so sure he was “about” to freestyle. But wanted to stop in case he made up something too awesome and didn’t want to reveal it yet. Too funny!
