[edit] Engvall and Foxworthy are NOT Cousins

This seems to be an oft-recited bit of trivia on several sites, including Wikipedia and IMDB, but it is most certainly untrue, and I think any reference to this should be removed until someone can offer convincing evidence as to its validity.

I have changed the line (which was a bit originally used by comedian Jeff Foxworthy, a cousin of Engvall's) to read (which was a bit originally used by comedian Jeff Foxworthy, a friend of Engvall's). Mouseclicker 21:56, 28 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Rat pack analogy

"The Blue Collar group has been called the redneck Rat Pack. Foxworthy is both the leader and most famous of the group, like the Rat Pack's Frank Sinatra. Engvall equates to Dean Martin, as both the lead man's best friend and the second most famous of the group."

I don't think Engvall is the 2nd most famous of the group. When they started out he may have been, but Larry seems to have surpassed him. Priester 18:47, 18 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Album links

Why do most of the albums link back to this article? They should have their own pages. Ianthegecko 20:46, 17 June 2006 (UTC)

Perhaps because individually the albums themselves are not all notable. MLA 07:19, 19 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Snappy **** to Stupid Questions

Actually, if I'm not mistaken, wasn't Al Jaffe's bit called "Snappy Comebacks to Stupid Questions"? Jaerune 05:30, 3 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Discography Loop?

All of the links in Discography Loops to the main article. I will try to fix this, but the respective articles may not exist.
