They Sure Don't Make Basketball Shorts Like They Used To is a 1998 self-released album produced by American rock band Hoobustank, now known as Hoobastank. It is significantly different from "modern" Hoobastank as its songs fit more into the genre of funk metal rather than post-grunge, especially through extensive use of a saxophone. A few tracks, notably "Naked Jock Man", contain rapped vocals as well. A music video for Earthsick was filmed and was directed by Avi Roffman. The samples on tracks 1, 5, and 10 are from a live special hosted by comedian Thomas F. Wilson.[1]
