Okay, before you start asking what's the deal with the boxer shorts, here's the story.

The plot is this. 24hrs before the game, a Dallas fan breaks into FedExField and steals the Funky4's uniform pants. Well, the other three guys are nervous while I remain calm. I'm calm because I know that FedEx will deliver the pants in time for our routine. It goes along the lines of the new FedEx slogan "Relax, It's FedEx". Sure enough, the courier comes in, makes the delivery, and we are ready to do our thing.

Trust me, the socks were the idea of the producer and the director. They wanted us to look as foolish as possible. Imagine walking outside of the stadium like that, which we did for a portion of the shoot to which I didn't get any pics of.

BTW, we wear white socks underneath the uniforms. You didn't like my "Stacey Adams" socks?:D

The white/red stripe tube socks brought back some memories of growing up. I would pull those bad boys up soooooo high, I'd get holes in them cuz they were pulled up pass my knees!!! LMAO!

Hey, are those "Bates" shoes you got on? You look like an Academy grad!

Yes sir. Bates are the shoe of choice. Used to have the black ones when I was in college for band use also.

I have a new pair of whites on order. Those are 5yrs old now.

When I saw the first pic, I said to myself "What's up with this". Then I remembered the commercial and I busted out laughing.

That was a funny a$$ bit you guys did.

I've been looking for stripped socks like that. Where did they get them. My wife doesn't believe they even exsist. Man I use to wear them in HS everyday with cutoff jeans and ringard t-shirt (typical jock). I've been searching everywear!

Looking good guys but get those pants - SOON!~

Trust me, those white tubes with the red lines weren't my idea. I'm still attending my focus group to assist me with healing from wearing them.

BTW, I had mismatched socks. The other leg had blue stripes.

When's it going to come out on DVD?
It's cool to get a sneak preview of the behind the scenes special features.

Didn't me. I have always and will always expect these guys to wlak around lockerooms, parking lots, streets, malls, or wher ever in boxer. It is just their Funky way.

Somehow I don't think this was meant as a compliment.
