The only passage is a parody song in which the host admits that the show has become lame, takes too many breaks, and spends too much time on MySpace. The singer compares that failure to Bill Bachner letting a ball go through his legs. He then longs for the redemption Dave Ortiz felt after his walk-off home run in Game 4 of the 2004 ALCS against the Yankees. The bit ends by imagining a welcoming place where people share the same accent, enjoy everything he says, and do not think he sounds funny.
What happened, in order
From Buckner to Ortiz
A self-mocking song compares the show's slump to Bill Bachner's infamous error and imagines a comeback like Dave Ortiz's 2004 ALCS walk-off home run.

Wicked lame on the show these days. Really sucks a lot. Always taking breaks and on my space. As funny as what I'm not. Man, this dirtbag's got to change. Now I know how Bill Bachner felt when the ball went through his legs. And I want the feeling that Dave Ortiz got in game four of the 2004 ALCS series against the Yankees when he hit the walk-off home run to win. Man, that must have felt wicked good. Sometimes I want to go where nobody thinks I'm lame. And they're wicked excited to hear me say anything. I want to be where I can see. Our accents are all the same. I want to be where everybody thinks I'm not leaning kind of a little bit, maybe even sort of funny.
