Jimmy's won more than 12 Grammys for Polka over the years. Oddly enough, Frankie Yankovic only won one.

I thought that Frankie was the Polka King.

I remember reading that "Lose Yourself" was released right after the Grammy eligibilty period for last year ended. So, he was still able to be nominated this year.

When Frankie Yankovic died, SOMEBODY had to take over the polka king job. BTW, does anybody else agree with me that when Al calls somebody a "polka-holic" that's not necessarily a BAD thing? :lookround:

Hmm...no!

I'd say it'd be a compliment for Al to call you a polkaholic! I'd be honored.

I'd be honored if Al called me a polkaholic...but then I'd be honored if Eminem called me a ****in wannabe and to get the **** out of his face...

I'd pick my honors more carefully if I were you.
