Even Jim said it should have been called TMIL (but that was before Meat tied his hands behind his back *sigh*) Had Meat changed it to TMIL with maybe ALL Desmond songs, he would have proved his loyalty to Jim. Jim would have seen the sacrifice Meat made and got on with "Final At Bat". Instead of Meat saying "oh, we're going to do another one, we're going to conclude it" they could have properly concluded it this way. It's a real shame. And just think... had it happened to BAT II and the world never heard "Objects". The same happened here. The world never heard Jim's true BAT III, the final at BAT. | |
