To be fair...
Keith Olbermann, former Sportscenter anchor who works for CNBC, actually coined the phrase in the mid-90\'s. When someone scored a goal in hockey, he\'d say "He put the biscuit in the basket."
Fast forward to Summer 2001 when I arrive at Tim\'s and he tells me that he\'s writing a song using terms and phrases that could work for sex or athletics, hence the title. I looked at the screen and saw the last line: "tiscuit and a tasket." Tim said, "I need something after that." I immediately thought of biscuit in the basket. For one, it fit perfectly in terms of rhyme and meter. For two, one can put the biscuit in one\'s basket in both sexual and athletic circumstances. It really was one of those situations where everything fell into place. Tim instantly said he was using it once I explained the line\'s history.
So I take no credit for originality or creativity, but take tons of credit for having a memory loaded with irrevelant shit that occasionally results in something good. I mean, what else could have possibly fit after "tiscuit and a tasket." Furthermore, what the fuck does that even mean? Either way, I\'m appreciative of the album note props. It was cool to be involved in the creative process no matter how accidental.
All this said, I still like Phaddy better.
