Dan Patrick Poll: Whose career would you rather have, Randy Johnson or Dave Grohl - amoxy Aug 16, 06:51 8
- Grohl easily. He's still having a blast doing what he loves and is making a contribution to the arts and culture that will far outlast Johnson's - pmb Aug 16, 08:37
- Generally speaking, I'd rather be a healthy musician whose art impacts the world. In the case of Grohl, the stink of Nirvana neutralizes that idea. -- nm - Imperator Aug 16, 08:31

- I *love* baseball and pitching but being a rock star on the level of Dave Grohl is something else. -- nm - Krusty Aug 16, 06:59 1
  - Yeah, i tend to agree. -- nm - Subversive Aug 16, 07:08
