No Really: Dirk Nowitizki Plays a David Hasselhoff Song on TV

((ht: foxsports.com))

We feel compelled to share this but to be totally honest, we aren't sure why.

Maybe because it perpetuates a stereotype that Germans are the only people still fascinated with David Hasselhoff? Heck, I don't know.

Anyway, check out what happens when Dallas Mavericks forward Dirk Nowitzki, a German, made an appearance on a German TV Talk show today called "My Spass".

No, really, that's the name of the show.

And the host of the show brought out a guitar for Dirk to play. The two then broke into a rendition of a  famous Hoff song from 1989 called "Looking for Freedom".

Okay, supposedly famous.

Or famous in Germany...

Anyway, the musical entertainment begins at about the 1:40 mark...



Here's the original for the sake if comparison from ZDF

Dirk Asks: Guess What Day It Is...???

((HT: Dallas Mavericks their own selves))

This is classic in the parody department... but there is a GAPING hole...
See if you can spot it...


Instead of Mike or Champ, it should have been MarkMarkMarkMarkMark...

Too easy...but still funny...
