i hate it but i'm uncontrollably drawn to it
We should probably get on our asses for fantasy football again this year so we don't end up with as big of a cluster fuck as last year. I reupped the previous league. Good news, everyone!. Looks like live scoring is free this year. The other big change is that free agents can be placed on waivers until Tuesday. This prevents the first come, first served quick pick up on a Sunday while watching the game. This definitely evens things out and makes the season more fair.
Any other suggestions?

there is also, of course, the great debate whether or not we should even bother charging for this shit. that was a cluster fuck last year for sure
here are the waiver options:the first one is when players get put on waivers for the week.Use these settings to give everyone in the league a fair chance at picking up players. Sunday - Tuesday means all unowned players will be placed on waivers at 10:00am PT each Sunday with the claim period ending at 11:59pm PT on Tuesday. First game of the week - Tuesday means all unowned players will be placed on waivers at the start of the first game for that week with the claim period ending at 11:59pm PT on Tuesday.The second new option has to do with how we handle the waivers.If waivers are enabled, all players dropped from a team's roster are immediately placed on a waiting period from zero to seven days to give all managers a chance to claim those players. Choose the waiver processing option best suited for your league.In a normal waivers systems, waiver priority determines which manager's request is processed first. * Continual rolling list: waiver claims are processed in waiver priority order and each successful claim moves a manager to the end of the waiver priority list * Reverse order of standings: waiver claims are processed in reverse order of standings and successful claims do not affect waiver priority list * Weekly rolling list based on standings: waiver claims are processed in reverse order of standings and each successful claim moves a manager to the end of the waiver priority listIn a Free Agents Acquisition Budgets (FAAB) waivers system, each manager receives a dollar amount to place blind bids on waived players. The manager with the highest bid at the end of the waiver period claims that player and that bid amount is deducted from the team's acquisition budget. If multiple managers place an equal bid on a player, tiebreak options are available as described above. * FAAB w/ Continual rolling list tiebreak * FAAB w/ Reverse order of standings tiebreak * FAAB w/ Weekly rolling standings tiebreakRight now I have it set to place players on waivers at the first game of the season and using "Weekly rolling list based on standings" for the waiver priority. I do kinda like the Free Agents Acquisition Budgets though, but I've never used that system.
I like continual rolling.
I just reviewed my first medical evidence where Dr. Scott Kellie was the doctor. I feel funny.
also up for debate: when the playoffs should be. right now i'm tempted to throw out week 17. i have never been in the championship game, so i have no personal opinion on this.
week 17 is a wash
I no longer feel sorry for people in my micro class. People were complaining about struggling in class so the prof said he would do a non-mandatory live chat and will discuss anything people want so he can help them understand.I log in and it is just me and Dr. Cronin. Awesome.So I have spent the last 45 minutes bullshitting with my micro professor.
continual rolling is my vote, as for championship game, it does suck when you get to the playoffs and your best players are benched for the remainder of the season, but at the same time everyone plays by the same rules and has time to prepare for it, i just accept it as part of fantasy football, so i'm good for whatever
Guy at work has created a code word for gay. When he says "ran cross country at Bellarmine" he is calling something gay.
awesome, my wife's a lesbo, now i need her to bring some bitches home
glad I could brighten your day.
my knees hurt when it rains from all the damage i did running cross country at bellarmine
sarah's body is completely fucked up from all the running she did, I would never recommend cross country running to anyone ever
There aren't many sports I recommend participating in seriously if you don't want to be fucked up.
http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/blog/sh...?urn=nfl,177959Unless Michael Vick signs, Losman is probably the UFL's marquee player. That may sound sort of like being named the coolest guy camping out in line for Star Wars tickets, but everybody's got to find a home somewhere.
I'm down for any of those options for FF. Should we put a little money in the pot for this season. We are finally getting old enough to afford $20-40 for some real competition. I don't care how its distributed (i.e. reg season champ, tourney champ, weekly high score), but it would be nice to add a little more incentive over bragging rights. As long as I don't have to play Joe's team in the playoffs, I should be fine.
Speaking of getting off our asses, I need to nail down a weekend for the bachelor party. September 19th-20 or 26-27?Is N'Awlins even an option for anyone? Most of the non-Natty Sci can make that trip, but since most of the wedding party and guests are Natty Sci, majority may rule.Options: 1) New Orleans - Pros: We have experience with what works and doesn't work (not sure what doesn't), out-of-town road trip. Cons: Cost, distance, and hurricanes.2) Nashville - Pros: I live here and know the area, not a long trip from 'Ville, plenty of places to party. Cons: I live here and don't want to puke on people I know.3) Louisville - Pros: Majority lives in town (larger crowd), more access to creative activities, reduced cost. Cons: Been there, done that.4) Chicago - Pros: Something new. Cons: Something new and untested.
i like the courier's crime datacenter. the ui needs some work, but it's fun to find shit like this guy who didn't quite grasp the idea of giving flowers and chocolates to the ladies:http://datacenter.courier-journal.c...case/8009044281
fyi, chicago's a fun town but far and away the most expensive on your list. hotels ain't cheap there
and if you're gonna travel, you can't beat vegas, plus it's cheap right now
Chris had something in mind partywise for his and Joanna's birthday in September. He is the 25th and joanna is the 18th. It sounds like whichever weekend isn't chosen there will be a party in Louisville the other. I wouldn't mind Nashville, but that is up to you. New Orleans would be best if we flew. If you want something like a Chicago, is there anything interesting in something like a St. Louis. Just throwing around ideas.
I don't see us being a big Vegas group.
you would enjoy vegas more than you think you would. if you don't believe me watch the hangover
actually just watch it anyway, it's the funniest fucking movie i've seen in a long time
I didn't think I would like time travel either until I watched Back to the Future.

im watching the special on the 94 49ers. They are interviewing Merton Hanks. Im incredibly disappointed in how unfreakish his neck is.
Brock, my vote is doing it the weekend of 9/25-27. It will be at the tail end of my vacation, so I wouldn't have any problems getting out of town for it. And if you wanted to start it early I could make that as well. The only problem would be getting back. Also I sould like to make my best effort to be home for Joanna's birthday on 9/18. I'm gay. As for plans, new city would be cool, but New Orleans was awesome. The party bus from Louisville sounded like a fun, but dangerous idea. I don't think anyone really wants to do a bachelor party in a city where they know too many people, but that would lessen the cost. So I guess my vote for that is not Louisville and somewhere we can do a lot of barhopping without cabbing it all across a city.
At Schwarz we had a code for calling someone a fag, which was 324. We had 3 digit extensions then so it made it awesome when you would call somebody out over the loud speaker and tell them to dial 324.
I personally can't wait for Les Miles to take the stage.
Bat's game tonight, is anyone besides Chris and me going? One of these years I will get someone else to go.
custody changes soon so every other thursday will be free for thirsty thursdays. but babymama might be there, you can hang out with her. i did hear there's a family reunion on sunday, joe, and kaelyn's going to be there with kevin and donna, but not shannon
Yep, I will be at the family function for a bit.All right, if I see baby mama I'll give her shit for not going to the family reunion on Sunday.

Funny shit at SEC Media Day, taken from KSR."I watched an episode of "King of Queens" last night where Doug called his father-in-law a "demented old circus monkey."That captures the essence of the atmosphere surrounding the Wynfrey Hotel today.The lobby is filled with "Got Nick" T-Shirts two sizes two small being worn by ladies two decades too old to wear them. It's not a pretty sight.Demented old circus monkeys."I have requested pictures.
UK , IU and UL may look like demented circus monkeys this year.
When did this place become lame?
so i'm talking to one of my clients today down in Florida, come to find out this dude was a 3-time all american at marquette back in the day and was drafted by the minneapolis lakers and played pro ball for 10 years. he's from green bay and is buddies with bart starr and a bunch of those old packers. he still holds the all-time ncaa record for most points in an NCAA tournament game for marquette. suck on that d-wade
no triple double though.Mark Buerhle for the white sox just threw a perfect game.

i was talking with lynnie about hockey tonight and he reiterated a common refrain: "but i've never really skated before". i can't emphasise the enough - my first time on ice was doing this. seriously, day one is "falling down and getting your ass back up"anyways, i posted some really, realy shitty video from one of our wednesday games. Everyone in this video has been skating since at least January. Some for three years. A few play a lot of roller hockey. But this is like a big step up from the begineers program and it still looks like retards humping a door knob. But the crazy thing is when you are out there you are exhausted and feel like you are flying around.Anyways, here's the video:http://dmjm725-site0029.maxesp.net/...ribleHockey.htm
Wes, if anyone were to do something like that... it would be us.DO IT!
how was the game last night for anyone that went?
Mike's wife booing Wiegandt and yelling I got 2 middle fingers for you was funny.
suzanne? was she drunk? she had to have been
So MB throws the perfect game but Wise saved his ass in the top of the 9th for the first out.
Brock - I think you should. Her dad might be mad that he baptist daughter was dancing and in a church.
Buerhle had to buy him dinner and a hooker last night.
Apparently, I missed a fantastic time last night. This text message was was delivered to me from Slugger Field: "You suck ballz, jackass!"It's so nice to be missed!
some nice photos from the tour de france:http://www.boston.com/bigpicture/20..._de_france.html
I like to mask the hatred of my job with booze and insults to others. The use of "ballz" is a joke from work. It was discussed how much we hate the use of -z instead of -s at the end of words.
hat failThe underlying connection was closed: An unexpected error occurred on a send.
whoa. copy and paste fail.http://failblog.org/2009/07/24/hat-fail/
was wiegandt able to get the ball all the way to the catcher?
Unless you are talking about "skillz", then you have to go with the "z".
What about SLUTZ, yo? Do you love deez hoes?
I still say only with skillz.

Okay, since everyone is talking Weddings and Bachelor parties. Tiffany has asked to put this into your hands (She says she is the worst bride ever.) Tiffany and her Maid of Honor don't care where, but they would like to go somewhere else for the wedding. We realize that a distant locale wedding might cause the number of people to show up to be low. But Tiffany's side will be lighter also already. Tiffany would like to go somewhere, where everyone could have fun. And it would be perfectly acceptable to be hungover at the wedding.Possible Locales:VegasPros: Cheap packages, we don't care if it is cheesy, we have Vegas to play in.Cons: Can be pricey. distant.CarribeanPros: beach or boat wedding, all-inclusive packagesCons: Can be pricey. distant.Cancun-like areaPros: beach weddings, all-inclusive packagesCons: Can be pricey. distant.New OrleansPros: Her family is from Nawlins so she knows how to have fun there, but done it before. We enjoyed a great time there. More likely (in my mind) you all may show up.Cons: She's been there done that (but would do it again) Can be pricey. distant.Key West area: pros:beaches and shitCons: Can be pricey. distant.Open to other cool suggestions(no Gatlinburg, Cleveland, Hershey...... maybe I can convince her into LEGOLAND! not really)Tiffany says if you all can't make a decision, fine. Well be going out of the country (Hello Tokyo!) If anyone asked me, where is my choice in this matter, I support my woman. That is my answer, ask for another and I will attempt to punch you.
Do Vegas

Can we have a monkey knife fight at the reception?
if you bring the monkeys i'll provide the knives
Spoke to Paul and he said he would help hook us up in St. Louis. He knows the owner of the Penthouse club and can at least get us in free. He knows a main usher at the Busch Stadium and said might be able to help[ us out there. Mentioned knowing people at the Brewery to get a tour and more then the 2 drink max. There are a group of bars there caled the landing. Just some ideas for there.
Brody, you forgot some Cons about Key West.Cons: Random Cuban floating over and ends up in wedding pictures. A lot of homosuxuals
Are those two things related?
If you stay in downtown St. Louis, the landing, Busch Stadium, and plenty of blues bars are within walking distance. The Penthouse Club also sounds interesting. Like I said earlier, my vote is to get out of louisville. If we're looking to stay closer than Vegas or Nawlins, Memphis and Beale Street is another option. I don't know anything else about memphis and it may be a little further than some places, but it is different.
I'll allow a monkey fight.
Michelle and I were in St. Louis for X-mas and we went out at the Landing. I wasn't all that impressed. Kind of reminded me of a smaller version of 4th Street. Lots of douchebags and high-maintenance college chicks, which isn't conducive to our style of drinking and age.Marc, for a destination wedding. I'd recommend the Carribean. The wedding packages are sweet. An alternative would be a cruise. My mom was pushing that for us, but we were stupid and decided to do something a little more traditional (and ridiculously expensive).
prices are super cheap for mexico right now, there were three weddings at the place we went for our honeymoon, and they were actually really pretty nice. and no i did not get any swine flu. we were originally looking to go the caribbean route, but mexico was just so much cheaper. never been on a cruise so i can't speak to that
We went to Ashland and Huntington to show Michelle's family her wedding dress. We came back with a 13 year old boy, a 12 year old girl and a cat we named Chewie because chewbacca is awesome and also its ear and tail got chewed up by a car engine.
Wait...what?
Say again...
Speaking of 13 year old girls, AT&T shut down 4chan from their cable modems today claiming they were a child porn ring. 4chan is somewhat like the internet mafia of retardedness. They are behind almost every "meme" such as lolcats andrickrollin. they also managed to get the founder of the site voted Time's Most Influential and hacked Sarah Palin's e-mail account. They also took on Scientology.Long story short, tomorrow should be an interesting day on the internet as a bunch of bored computer nerds take on AT&T.
Jay, elaborate on the kids situation. Tell me you just transported these kids from one place to another and not watching two kids of that age at your place for an extended period of time. Kids that age can be complete a-holes, unless you are bailing them out of a horrible situation... and then they can still be big a-holes. I know from personal experience.
btw, i'm ready to dig out the train wreck jpg for whatever big jay is up to
Jay - I am waiting for the story on this one. Is it anything like Woody Allen adopting an asian chick?

I just heard a rumor that Buddy Bat is going to be in our office.
bet you won't trip him
Our motivation to work is called homeruns for veterans so we use baseball cliches at work and Buddy Bat is supposed to motivate us to work harder to "hit that homerun for the veteran." Would be funny to trip him.

He violated me in my cubicle. I need an adult!
bats do that, they are very predatory creatures and don't know how to shut up and take it, they always want to be in charge.
Do all bats have an oversized purple head? That thing was scary.
you mean on their neck or in their pants?
The good thing is if you are a romantic, you can feed fruit bats strawberries and grapes and shit. The vampire bats just like a good ole romping and they get into it with biting and the such.

Wes, guess who I just ran into at the hospital. Fucking Moose, Micah's friend. He's a goddamn nurse in one of the ICU's down here. How scared would you be if you had that big mother fucker as your nurse?
So I was talking with my neighbor Nancy and she told me that the police were cruising down Gloucester yesterday morning while she was taking her dog out and the cops stopped and asked her if she was the one that called the cops on the number of cars parked on the street. So in the last 2 weeks the cops have been called for cars parked on the street and barking dogs. She is calling city hall to try to investigate. A single, work from home, angry, 50 something year old woman with too much time on her hands is going to let me know if she figures out who it is and my neighbor Greg and I can execute their removal from the neighborhood.
Michelle's sister forgot to send underwear with her daughter. So I had to go to wal-mart and buy some for her. That was one of the most awkward experiences of my life. Especially when I had to ask for help because she didn't know what size she was.
just wait 'til you start buying tampons
Wow, this place turned awkward

ac/dc tuesday october 6 in louisville, freedom hall, tickets are 91 bucks, go on sale this saturday, would anyone be interested?

Phoenix Hill schedule:Friday 31st - Heaven HillAugust 7th - Velcro PygmiesAugust 14th - TantricMarcy's Playground is mixed in there somewhere. I could go for any or all of the above 3 concerts, but that means going to phoenix hill.
91 bucks for AC/DC? That is crazy
it is, but they're also banking on dumbasses like me that have never seen them live pay money b/c this is their first tour in like 7 years and they may not have another one
a guy i work with just said they were $120 in nashville, so i guess it's a bargain
If you go to the AC/DC concert I think you should dress up like Angus.
I only paid $65 for my AC/DC tickets in Nashville. Your buddy must have had backstage passes or something.The concert kicked ass. It didn't hurt that my brothers and I played AC/DC Rockband and drank bourbon all day before the concert.
Chris - That's fucking awesome. Moose is a big mother fucker at 6'3" and 330 pounds. Is he still a big guy (working out wise) or did he just get fatter?Moose is a super nice guy though, but when I first met Moose I was never more intimidated by a guy than him. His arms were fucking huge, he has the barb wire tatts and then you find out he is the nicest guy in the world. Just don't cross him.

Two things:One, Tiff and I ran into Joe's friend Laura yesterday at the dollar movies. The funny part was while I was getting the popcorn Tiff was in line behind them, and I think they didn't didn't want to have to pay a dollar a each ($2.00 total), "making pouty faces" so Tiff offered to loan them a dollar. She ended up having to charge it. Priceless.Two, BROCK AND JAY (and anyone else with getting married soon) I am no way ready to ship out invitations or what not, but you may be like me and the others that get weirded out when a friend calls or texts you for your address. I know some of you have already completed this invitation process and might have the same invitees. If so a list of common invitee addresses could be helpful to pass on to others so that not everyone has to constantly get the address info. Just a thought that myself and others might find convenient form those who have already or are currently working on this.
Barry was always infamous for trying to go to movies back in high school by gathering up change and paying in rolls of coins and spare change.
i was liked theater hopping, paying for one, and then watching like 3 in a row. this was especially prevalent during the summers when there literally nothing to do all day when you're 14 or 15
There were times I did that if I felt the first movie was that bad that I needed to be reimbursed.

Barry - how much longer do you have till you graduate?Brock - Are you still post-docing? How much longer do you have or is this an indefinately long position?
My postdoc ends July of next year. It could be longer, but I'm setting a date so I don't get stuck.
What are you wanting to do afterwards? Academia or industry?
Greg Brohm has been reassigned to the athletic department off football operations.
I will graduate in May, I hope.
I thought I heard they reassigned him and then he quit. Basically his position ran out and they thanked him for Brian.
that's all he was hired for anyway
bout had a heart attack when i saw this pichttp://www.foxnews.com/slideshow/en...and-now?slide=8
nice douglas
I don't know Joe, if you realize it while you type it and then post it anyway, I think it makes it worse. You might as well throw on some ass chaps and march in a marriage parade.
If he was in denial then he would be that much further away from being cured. I think admitting his fault is a step in the right direction. He just admitted it was gay not that he accepted it. I think he can still be saved.
there's only one way to be cured, and that's ditch the kids and fiance, so it comes down to being a free asshole, or a respectable gaywad. i suppose after so many years of the former, it's only natural to move towards the latter
as that last post shows, i'm beyond saving
Have you officially quit dipping?
at home, yes. i went like almost two weeks w/o one, now i'll just bum one at work on occasion. i needed to quit anyway, so it was a good excuse to give it up
Do we have a good excuse coming up for people to drink besides weddings and bachelor parties and before the September birthdays?
why do you need a good one? a shitty one works for me. actually we're supposed to start the new custody this weekend, so shannon will have her all this weekend, and I'll have her all next weekend, as opposed to splitting the weekends up, which is really me having kaelyn every weekend. we'll see if shannon finds a way to fuck it up before friday night, but it's supposed to start this weekend. so i'm getting half my saturday nights back
We don't really need a good one, but it seems as if it has almost come to that.

The b-mac picture was priceless. It was a combination hump/night at the roxbury's/go to dance move and Scroggin nailed the picture. The comments posted on the pictures are pretty good too, mostly the mosh pit picture. Scroggin saying he's never seen a wedding with a mosh pit and Burchett saying it was the best part of the wedding.
the best part of the mosh pit were the horrified looks of everybody else still at the wedding. sarah said she had a bunch of people go up to her and ask "what are they doing" and she'd always say 'that's just what they do, i knew they were going to do it'
We are priceless.There is a vending machine in the building I work in that has drinks, sides and entrees. The vending machine is set up where it is not all the same thing in the same number. For instance, A3 could be a turkey sandwich and directly behind it could be an egg salad sandwich or a jumbo bean burrito. We are trying to create a game called “Lunch by Fate” where it is basically a randomly generated lunch by a vending machine and we are seeing who can randomly end up with the worst possible lunch by chance. I think this may be right up there with my horrible lunch ideas as the Baconater challenge and the donut eating contest.
I think the dollar beer at the Bat's might be a bad idea tonight with the weather.
apparently naked gun 4 is in development, i'm happy
Does it star OJ Simpson or Anna Nicole Smith?
hopefully both, if any movie could incorporate a corpse and a scumbag, it's the naked gun franchise
The best part of Sarah's comment is "that's just what they do". So very true.
And let's not forget Weekend at Bernies!
what was funny about it was sarah said people were asking her "why are you letting them do this" like she shouldn't be allowing it, along with "what the fuck are they doing"
That's great shit. Another reason why Sarah is awesome, because she doesn't care.
I feel so honored that we have set the bar so low for what is acceptable and expected behavior for us.
i do that on a daily basis with sarah. set the bar low, so you'll never disappoint. that way when you do a random act of kindness, like clean the kitchen, you get rewarded
The problem with that is when you have kids your wife expects you to grow up. Silly women.
all this talk of growing up reminds me of this comic: http://xkcd.com/616/btw, for those looking to drink - the bar at iceland closed for the summer, so we've been heading up to Joe's Older than Dirt after our game (9ish). The place is bumping with people out playing corn hole. Good times.
Joe's Older Than Dirt is a good place to drink at. You can get good food and obviously good drinks. Not sure how the pricing is because I always drink on E&Y when I am there, however, I was carying around a bucket of jagerbombs one night, so you know that is always good.
Phil, that comic strip made my day.I hae a family wedding sometime on Saturday afternoon. I could see heading up to joe's older then dirt afterwards if driving is possible. If I'm not mistaken I think it is free beer at the wedding. Might have to take advantage of that.
Free beer always tastes better.
it tastes so good once it hits your lips
Fill it up again!
I've always been a fan of being drunk when it is still daylight out
so apparently manny and ortiz did steroids too in 2003, i wish this whole fucking thing would get dropped before they 'out' everyone. pretty soon they won't be able to put anyone else in cooperstown
Who gives a shit if they did steroids?
I am making the decision whether someone is competent to manage their personal affairs (money) at work today when all of a sudden I just rememebered that my cable bill is due today. It makes me think sometimes.
ha, douglas's post reminds me of this onion article:http://www.theonion.com/content/new..._craig_counsellTurns Out Craig Counsell Was Actually Best Baseball Player Of Steroid EraNEW YORK—After the records of players who used performance-enhancing drugs are carefully removed, statistics provided by the Elias Sports Bureau indicate that lifetime .255 hitter Craig Counsell was the best player of the past 15 years. "If you judge them on the basis of pure physical ability, you're left with Craig Counsell," said ESB representative Patrick Wondolowski, adding that Counsell's 35 career home runs narrowly beat out Quinton McCracken's 21 and pitcher Glendon Rusch's three. Upon hearing the news, broadcaster Bob Uecker lauded the Brewers utilityman as "one of the best I ever saw, if we're talking about those who I can say without a doubt never took steroids. He came this close to stealing a base off of Ivan Rodriguez, and I swear I heard him foul tip a Roger Clemens fastball. The kid could flat-out steroid-free play. One time he was playing third base and he caught a Rafael Palmeiro line drive—just caught it, right in his mitt." When asked about his Hall of Fame chances, Counsell dodged the question by asking if anyone had a few bucks so he could go buy a sandwich.
Classic stuff Philco.
I fear the day we find out that John Olerud was on the juice or that Jim Eisenreich didn't really have Tourrettes he just faked it for the prescription drugs to ehance his performance.
ADRIAN!
i know why you're yelling brock so i'll join in. SVEN!
SVEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
AAAAAAAAAAAAAADDDRRRRIIIIIIIIIAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN!
NNNNNNNNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Welcome to the club.
Brock, you forgot the first 2 rules of fight club:#1 - The first rule of Fight Club is, you do not talk about Fight Club.#2 - The second rule of Fight Club is, you DO NOT talk about Fight Club.
I'm a little late but ADRIANNNNNNN IIISSSSS GAAAYYYYYYYYY!
Joe - You are our only hope. You should run while you still can.
Cuban and Philco are hopeless?
Douglas, your brother in law Mike Bush is out in the lobby of my building talking to someone in a suit, anything I should yell at him?
If Philco doesn't shoot himself in the foot, he should have a fantastic time at our wedding. I've been giving a good word to the ladies down south who are planning to venture north for the festivities.By the way, I still have no idea what the guest list looks like: is Bob from Cincy coming or is second cousin Eddy? These questions haunt my days and nights.Lets go with the bachelor party on September 25th weekend. I'd like to take Friday off regardless of location.
Joe-Yes
who gives a shit about me dying alone - i have more important shit to worry about. right now fantasy football has two people signed up.wtf
where's the freakin link dude
Nevermind
just to make it even easier:http://football.fantasysports.yahoo...d=CrazedBuffalo
hey brent, can you send that link to josh too?
I never saw that sign up button
All that matters is that I beat Brock in the playoffs. Phil, you won't die alone, you have a cat. And that cat will eat you after you die and weeks go by and no one realizes you're dead.
brent - i'm not at work so sorry for late response. i'm sure he's gone now, he was probably just hocking insurance to someone
i'm in fantasy football now, the link was never posted before
I signed up to take my weekly beatings
my bad - bad ui design on the original post.i forgot about my cat. that bitch would probably eat a whole in my chest and then use it as a litter box.
I'll be signed up by the end of the weekend. Too bad I can't do fantasy football while on the clock at work.
http://www.courier-journal.com/arti...icer+sued+againcomments made about sex with sheep and goats. Also this is over by ascension where jerome sends his kids to school.
heh heh ... over by Ascension where Joe grew up. Party on!
Its not a pool party until someone cries rape.
Already done, he can't sign up at work though
I'm in
ROAR!
http://www.courier-journal.com/arti...-and-run+driverhow do you drunkenly hit a person riding a bike in a triathalon and continue driving with the bike on your windshield and then attempt to run away when a cop stops you with th ebike on your windshield?

Any one else working on a collection of save the date magnets?
Yeah I have a couple.
We gave out "Save the Date" shot glasses."I don't have one."That's because you didn't rock out the cabin.
That was a kick ass idea.
joe, is your arm sore?
not really. Long distance full velocity darts is brilliant.
I need volunteers and a recommended date for all you can eat hooters wings party. I need 10 people to fill out my wing party and I am leaning towards Thursday the 13th or thursday the 20th. Any ideas?
Right now the 10 people are:1. Me 2. Chris 3. Our dad4.5.6.7. 8.9.10.(Laura, Joanna and my mom aren't included in the 10 because that would be a waste of all you can eat, but they will be invited)
I'd be down, but I too would be a waste at all you can eat. I can probably only put down 25 or so
Jerome, Dr. Scott Kellie, Douglas, Dino, Wes, Adrian, Phil?
Brock, Brody, Jay, T-Pain?
if we are short someone, i could recruit dominic. he'd love to try and match you dumb bastards in a quantity contest
August 13th, I'm in
http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/blog/sh...?urn=nfl,180265Quit drinking? That's bull shit!
here's the best line in the article:If word gets out that NFL players can drop weight by cutting out stuff like Patron, Alize and, for Eli Manning(notes), Zima, it could cripple the club industry.
Rich Eisen on the Plaxico Burress indictment:"I'll be the first to say it. Clearly, Plax could not shoot holes in the prosecution's case."
Joe - put me on the list!
You have to bring T-pain!!!
Right now the 10 people are:1. Me 2. Chris 3. Our dad4. Douglas5. Wes6. Phil7. T-Pain8.9.10.
Right now the 10 people are:1. Me 2. Chris 3. Our dad4. Douglas5. Wes6. Phil7. T-Pain8. Cuban9.10.
If I recall Jerome called dibs when he called me to tell me I won. Jerome, are you allowed to go to Hooters?
So the question is do we hold an empty spot for T-pain or find a brother and make him wear a wig.
who's t-pain?
rapper.
i know the rapper, i was thinking there was someone nicknamed that or something that I didn't know about
Just mocking the "I'm on a boat" intro where he is trying to figure out who to take on the cruise when he wins a cruise for himself and 2 friends and he chooses T-Pain over his other friend.
Exactly.
he would probably bring more bitches
He would make it rain.
Which date are you going with? Aug 13th?Of course I can't make a weekday event, but I can ask Chip if he wants to saddle up. That mule can eat an entire steer if given the opportunity.
if you go with the 20th, I maybe of assistance.
I'm in for either date. I can crush some hooters wings, especially if they're paid for
Right now the 10 people are:1. Me 2. Chris 3. Our dad4. Douglas5. Wes6. Phil7. Lynnie8. Cuban9. Jay10. T-Pain
Dominic said he could fill in if Lynnie or T-Pain can't make it.
When I hear from Chris I will pick the day and then I will make the final roster.
August 13th is the tentative date. i need to call to set it up.Right now the 10 people are:1. Me 2. Chris 3. Our dad4. Douglas5. Wes6. Phil7. Cuban8. Jay9. Pete10. T-PainI don't know who Pete or T-Pain are but maybe Jerome, Dominic or Scott.
if lynnie can pull of the 13th he is Pete or T-Pain
I'm in if there is space left.
damn, wings sound good. too late
i'm out if it is the 13th...the 20th i'm in.
wow, you add marc and adrian to that group instead of pete and t-pain and you got yourself a throw down.i'll you guys what, im gonna be useless on the all you can eat - ill join the girls table to make space for brock or lynnie if they can rearrange their schedule to make it up here
Right now the 10 people are:1. Me 2. Chris 3. Our dad4. Douglas5. Wes6. Phil7. Cuban8. Jay9. Adrian10. Marcwith Phil being an interchangable wild card.
IT'S RAININ' SIDEWAYS!!
Apparently gloucester is a river again like that drunken night. I've got Laura on salvage duty while I am at work. Man the canoes!
My father in law called me and told me to just go back home. Apparently the West end received 5+ inches of rain, massive flooding everywhere by work.
I'm wandering downtown louisville at lunchtime. Should be fun.
You should go buy an inflatable raft.
I can take the pedway to CVS and not touch the street and then float back to work.
Who doesn't need an inflatable raft and a six pack?
i don't need one at home when the power at my office goes out
joe, if you get home and gloucester is still a river, i want a call to go canoeing
I still say a float trip at work would be priceless.
It barely looks like it rained downtown from what I saw
i'm working on a "Louisville hasn't seen 5 inches of pounding so quick since the last time I get laid" team name.
well played, Phil. I'm kind of curious of the disaster that awaits me at home. I may be down a kitchen couch if the water went in the garage.
the espn mock draft for their 40 team NCAA league is kinda fun to follow:http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/news/...tory?id=4375901
I just got a call from one of the companies next to our work building. They wanted me to analyze something for them and told me they are getting out of dodge before the next storm comes rolling through. I am definitely not going down there.Of course, it is probably hard for the drainage system to do it's job when there is nothing but trash stuck in them.
GOD IS ANGRY!Are you calling the West End trash?A guy I work with is leaving for Utah and today is his last day. We were joking on him today and we were saying that God is sending a message for him to stay in Louisville by not letting him leave through flooding, but the only kind of rain that would make him stay is if it was raining men. Gay jokes are always appropriate.
wow, we are losing power...
jesus, the natty weather service (http://nattysci.com/weather/) looks like we aren't even getting the heavy stuff
I should have taken douglas up on his umbrealla offer last week.
Certain places of the west end are pretty trashy.
i don't know if anyone saw pics from UofL, but they got absolutely creamed
TARC is up to 1 and a 1/2 hours behind schedule.
don't buses run like every 45 minutes though? so you are just getting a bus that's late, but you are none the wiser.
I ride an express bus that runs a different route before it switches to my rout so I catch the first of my bus so who knows where that bus could be stuck.
ah, gotchas. i'm dumb

any canoeing yesterday?
Not I, I stayed home and worked on microbiology.Gosh I am lame.
i didn't leave the house once i got home, just watched a movie
Good news is that I have 5 weeks left in this quarter, and then I get to relax until I learn if they are letting my retarded ass in pharmacy school or not.I have no clue what I am going to do if I don't get in. I suspect it will initially involve several bottles of bourbon and many nights that I don't remember.
at least there's an upside to not getting in
Very much so.Good times will be had by all.
Oh and I am sure the recoomendation Chris wrote me is going to get me in for sure. I am going to inquire if they have a beer or bourbon drinking team that I can help anchor.Here is an excerpt."Wes is a good sumbitch and isn’t too big of a douchebag. We’ve shared many bottles of bourbon, and hopefully he has a few working brain cells left. After all isn’t it an evoulutionary process, and he has just weeded out the slow, weaker brain cells. His hard work has been demonstrated in the piles of beer cans that have been amassed in a night of drinking and his dedication can be seen in never letting a handle of bourbon go unfinished as well as his ability to puke and rally. His keen intellect can be reflected in his ability to recite the stats of any incoming recruit to the University of Kentucky and this will make him quite an asset to the underserved red neck areas of the state. He will likely even demonstrate his loyalty as he risks his own license to give steroid prescriptions to his beloved Cats in hopes for one more win. He also has had an intimate knowledge of the pharmaceutical field considering the number of antibiotics he has needed after his many conquests, if you know what I mean. They don’t call him “the Big Worm” for nothing. Wes has finally settled down and started a family, and while this may make him a more stable pharmacist, he has become quite gay. Wes will strive to complete his training as he looks to use his new found doctorate as a means to become less gay. How many bitches could he pick up with the title of doctor? He could once again become the man and the legend.If I can be of any further assistance, or provide you with any further information, please do not hesitate to contact me, but only if you can offer me lots of money or booze."
I just hope he doesn't print out the wrong one to send in.
*recommendation
I didn't have as much water as I expected. The driveway was flooded earlier while I was at work but not like in the past. If you don't get in I say that you were too good for Sullivan.
He says the same thing about his wife
i'm here all week
stay hot douglas
So what is the September plan? In a month it is a 3 day weekend for labor day. My birthday is a month and a week away. I have a Saturday birthday. The following Friday is Joanna's 30th birthday and the Friday after that is Chris' 30th bday. I believe that Brock mentioned his bachelor party was also the weekend of Chris' b-day. Are we just going to stay drunk the entire month of September? I think we should embrace an awesome month like this one coming up. Anybody want to join in the debauchery?
Debauchery or douchebaggery?There is a huge difference and if we aren't careful it could go either way.
The douchebaggery in September is your wedding anniversary.
Touche.
Well played sir.
You set it up so well.
holy shit is the sports guy collectors conference photo gallery hugehttp://sports.espn.go.com/espn/page...mmons/gallery/120 fucking pages

joe its pretty lame that you know wes' wedding anniversary. Do you know his birthday too? douche
His birthday is around Thanksgiving because it was always a birthday/thanksgiving keg at the house.The september of his wedding started with my 21st birthday which was followed by his bachelor party which was followed by his wedding if I am not mistaken which is close to the same day as chris' birthday. I just remember being drunk a lot that september.
Maybe we really can get T-Pain?http://www.tallahassee.com/apps/pbc...NGNEWS/90805008
I'll break the ice today. This place is dead. Anything going on this weekend?
there's that BU alumni night at molly's on saturday i might check out. this is my first weekend w/o kaelyn in our new custody agreement
Never heard of it.
http://bellarmine.imodules.com/s/62...&calcid=727
We'll be in town this weekend. I may hit up the Molly's event as well. They are also doing some kind of Habitat for Humanity project in the morning which may be interesting...
Saturday morning Abby and I are taking AJ to Holiday World.
Has anybody seen Pineapple Express?I finally watched it last night and have to say that movie is pretty funny. I thought it was better than Superbad.
it's good, but it's not as good as superbad by any means
i don't know if anyone likes british comedies, but i watched death at a funeral again the other day and that movie's great. a midget high on acid ends up unconscious and tied up in a coffin with his dead elderly gay lover. good times
Well I haven't seen Superbad in a while so maybe I'll watch it again, but at times the fat kid Seth just pisses me off in that movie.I don't think either movie is as good as Forgetting Sarah Marshall.
that's a good one too, but none of them touch the hangover, if you haven't seen that yet
I have not. Abby and I are kid free this weekend, we talked about seeing that if it is still in theaters.
Guy sitting beside me at work is super quiet. I've sat next to him for a little over a month and never spoken to him. I randomly overheard him talking about the Boston Red Sox to some other guy so I started talking to him. Turns out he was going to walk on the baseball team at Bellarmine. He said he didn't because of Wiegandt. He said everything I could possibly want to hear. He called him an arrogant ass that didn't know what he was doing and that all the people from Holy Cross were a waste of space. I laughed and then told him that I played 4 years at Bellarmine under Wiegandt and that everything he said was true.

the MaximumASP gallon of milk challenge begins in four minutes
David Gibson. I still think the Gallon milk chug is possible.
Posting from my iPhone browser. The speed is great
It's certainly possible to drink the milk. The problem is holding it down for an hour afterwards.
When did you get your phone?
Dude u have to have that on YouTube immediately after
our new vp of sales thinks this stuff is a good way to drum up "buzz" about the company via viral videos or whatever the heck the kids call them these days. he used to do this at his previous place of employment. there will certainly be youtube videos.
I wouldn't mind having fun like that at work. Then again, I don't think we are allowed to have fun.
I'll be in town this weekend as well. Wes, you have to come out sometime just to meet Michelle. We've been together a year and I think you're pretty much the only one who hasn't met her.
I bought it yesterday
I still want to go to PHT this Friday or next for Velcro Pygmies or Tantric.
Jay let me know when you bring her in town.
Videos of Dom and Ryan have been posted. Still being processed by Youtube tough. Give it 10 or 15 minutes.Dom - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bJSIPvavPysRyan - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7NEnVTuPTlUEveryone who tried either puked or didn't finish their milk.
Looks like the first pass of Ryan's video is up
aaaaaaaaaaand dom is up.if you hold up, they should be in HD format in a little bit. if I uploaded them correctly that is
How many tried?
yeah Dom didn't look like he was doing too well.
we only had six people try. i've already failed once before and wanted no part in puking.
Probably wise.
dom is now up in the glory of HD
What time do the Velcro Pygmies play tomorrow?
if brock is in town i think we need to have a natty sci gallon challenge. brock in his prime could have thrown down a gallon no problem, and i suspect one of the burkets and one of the goodloes could handle it too.
Not sure exactly but the radio said it was free before 9:00.
Is that the plan tonight? Phoenix Hill?
August 07, 2009 Phoenix Hill Tavern w/Velcro Pygmies 9:30pm
In other bad concerts: free concert at 4th street tonight featuring Saliva.
I can't tell whether Wes' comment is in excitement/anticipation or disgust/revulsion.

cool video on Johnny Walkerhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J7lnnZiORpk
So I went to the world's largest White Castle for lunch today and the woman working the cash register said I am the smartest person to ever come into that White Castle because it was the quickest anyone has ever run their credit card because you swipe your own. She said every other person that uses a credit card there needs to be instructed to do everything. I felt special and at the same time very ashamed.
i like rolling up to the u-scan checkout at target when all the other stations are already full and trying to beat everyone to the check out. once I had a full basket of stuff, stood there and waited my turn for two minutes and still beat the other three fuckers.i felt like doing the lights out dance.
Not sure how much interest you all have but a group of us are going Whitewater rafting in West Virginia the weekend of Sept. 18-20. If you are interested let me know.The cost will be about $260 per person for rafting and lodging.
I did U-Scan at Kroger Wednesday evening and spent well over $100 and apparently you can only use the skip bagging button up to 4 times. we ran out of room to pile groceries on the bagging area so we switched to skip bagging and the woman yelled at us. They then told us that when they remodel the hubbards one coming up that the self bagging areas will be bigger with the spinning bagging areas.
Chris, what is the 30th birthday plan for Joanna and you?
I went to call about the Hooter's wings party but apparently the certificate says you can only call to set it up monday thru thursday between 2 pm and 4 pm. Hooters is fucking retarded.
no wonder they give those out, no one can do it then
$100 at uscan? god damn.my current uscan strategy:1) begin scanning immediately. fuck pressing start to begin.2) don't bother with the kroger plus card until the end either. i have the card in my wallet so i swipe it right before i swipe my card.3) keep it under $50 to avoid signing the credit card slip4) keep an eye on the attendant and scan your beer when you can easily catch them5) if you murder people that use checks or too many vegatables in the parking lot you won't have to deal with them at a later datefollow those five simple rules and you to can back-to-back-to-back uscan national champions.
Is that how Fred McGriff and Tom Emanski do it?The problem was I went and there was 1 regular lane open that was 10 deep so I said fuck it I am uscanning it. We violated every possible uscan rule including skip bag, beer id, produce, coupons and more.
Joe - Let me know when you do it, I'll take off from work to eat some wings.
And I am going to try to track down an email address for T-Pain
not to speak for joe, but the way i read what he posted was that you can only call them at a certain time, not that you had to eat in the afternoons
correct, eating is between 5 and 7, I just need to call between 2 and 4 on monday.
oh, i thought u had to schedule it between 2 and 4

what's the hardest part about typing "teehee"?telling your parents you're gay.
the hardest part of typing teehee is consuming the booze
touche.man, i went to the barret bar and got a beer on draft. it came out cloudy as fuck. drank half of it anyways. i feel like shit now. i think i might die.
i'm done. i'm going home, making tacos, watching the wire and waiting for the sweet release of death.
pussy
if everyone wouldn't mind, would you text my phone and include your name so i can recreate my contacts on my new phone. i lost everyones number.
Adrian, do you have your old SIM card? I just saved all my numbers to my old sim card on my old phone then popped it into my iphone, copied the numbers then put the iphone sim back in.
i can't find my old sim card.
Are people doing Molly's tonight?
i really want to if other people are
We are going. The dollar beer is only from 8-10, so I'm locked in to make those times for sure. If I can throw down a dozen beers in 2 hours, I think it should be the makings of a good evening.Call me if you plan to get together ahead of time.
Abby and I plan on going.
mollys doesn't sound to bad. i might try and make it
So is the plan to meet up there or does any one want to try to do something before hand like throw down a few drinks?
I'll throw down a few drinks.Oh and the more and more I see John Wall play, the more I realize he is probably the #1 draft pick in the 2010 NBA Draft...which would be the first time a UK player is #1 draft pick.This happened last night, the first player Wall jukes is a UNC signee and then he comes down the lane and dunks on Jerry Stackhouse. This kid is sick.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r5UpQl18OOM
And from the side.http://vmedia.rivals.com/uploads/899/818096.wmv
my house at 7 if you havent heard to meet up to head to Molly's
Works for me.
Wes, you may want to check out Lance Stephenson before proclaiming Wall the #1 pick.
I need a vote on Nashville vs. New Orleans.
Brock - I am well aware of Stephenson, but I am going by what the NBA 2010 draft dorks are saying.Stephenson is a heck of a talent. UK had a top 10 talent begging to come to UK for next year, but Cal described this kid as a "taker" and he wants "givers". Read into that what you want, but from the boards the kid was Stephenson.
Brock, whatever you choose i'm there for you. New Orleans or Nashville.
i like the nashville idea. we've done new orleans plus nashville would be a bunch cheaper and more people could make it
Philco - I know you are watching the game.Titans fake a punt and the punter runs 40 yards for the TD.
Dog sleepwalking, gets good at the end.http://www.break.com/usercontent/20...ail-945093.html
that fake punt is suspect. here's the problem - suddenly because the punter goes into his kicking motion he's untouchable according to the nfl rules. so he has three dudes coming at him unmolested and he just acts like he's kicking. what can those three dudes do? knowing that the dude could act like he's gonna run do they just stand there and wait for him to finish his kicking motion and start running?so the question now because a question of punter protection. i think that play will result in some weird rule about a person going into a kicking motion being unable to advance the ball after that action.
So the punter balked.
Phil - You do bring up a good point. It was still a badass play especially watching some punter (not the best athlete) haul ass for 40 yards.I wonder if teams will attack the punter at the first chance they get if he fakes it like that in regular season. Chances are they don't have another punter on the roster so you should win the position game at this point.I think the other thing that sold the play was the guy in motion, I think by design they were to release the attackers so that puts three guys out of the play and then you are blocking 8 on 10 there out.
I can't remember who it was for, but I think it was a college team who had a punter who is an MMA fighter. I like a good kicker who can kick some ass when need be.
Google linked me to Pitt Punter and MMA Fighter Dave Brytus.
Yeah the Pitt guy was an MMA fighter.UK's ex-punter Glenn Pakulak could rock some people. In college he was about 230 pounds, his father is an ex-hockey player (I believe). He was a converted middle linebacker to punter and after punting would run down the field and try to make plays.And I have to say this is a nice hit by the punter.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z82Ru0C7Qt8
And time to get hyped for college football. It's around the corner boys. I remember watching this game on TV, Auburn vs. Georgia, I thought this kid died.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mOGB57Vfa6k
Little bit better quality.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gRbY...feature=related
A UL kicker went on to play rugby or aussie football, maybe Nate Smith. Ron Cooper or John L. gave him plenty of practice with the trickery of the rugby style punt. What a horrible idea.
The funny thing is with the ruby style punt, when you have somebody on your team that is good with it, the announcers act like it is the most feared weapon in college football.
the only thing more effective is the 3rd down quick kick.
I've been waiting to see a first down quick kick. Have to keep the defense honest!
So there is a website with the 50 most badass moments in sport history. This hockey fight checks in at #7, what is badass about it? After mopping the floor with some jackass he proceeds to challenge the entire bench.http://www.complex.com/blogs/2009/0...rts-history/44/I admit I hate hockey, but they have to be some of the most badass professional sports players on the planet.
For what it's worth, Brian Moorman, the Bills punter, is one of the best overall athletes in the NFL. He's not allowed back into the pro bowl skills game because he had such a better arm than everyone else competing in the skills comp (against running backs, wr and corners), plus he was right with there there in speed and agility. He barely missed making the finals in the fastest man competition in another year. He also almost got killed.
Is he the one lit up on the fake punt?
Phil - do you know if any local boys played in the game last night?I know Stevie Johnson is hurt for the Bills right now, did you see Eric Wood play at all? I think there is another KY boy trying to make the defense for the bills, Jenkins?Little plays for Tennessee, but didn't see him in the game.
wall's dunk on stackhouse making more national news on the front page of yahoo:http://rivals.yahoo.com/ncaa/basket...rn=ncaab,181837"And anyway, he shouldn't feel too bad. John Wall is going to do that to a lot of people in the next few years. At least Stackhouse can say he was first."
Jenkins got waived, but with so many D-line guys going down they are saying they might bring him back.I say put him at RBhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5zvcsBQLhiE

Rivals has preseason HS football up. Trinity's starting QB is Kragthorpe's son. Interesting note, St. X is #39 and Trinity is like 67 nationally. Brock might care. I found it humorous that Rivals discussed in each teams summary that it comes down to who wins in the end between St. X and Trinity and they put St. X 30 spots higher despite Trinity winning something like 6 of the last 7 state titles (Brock would have the exact figures).
Chris is out, it is too early. Adrian and Marc, any word? Any reserves besides T-Pain?1. Me 2. Jay3. Our dad4. Douglas5. Wes6. Cuban7. 8. 9. Adrian?10. Marc?
Happy b-day Barry
You can always fill it with chicks if need be. We might gross them out though.
If I don't hear from Adrian or Marc soon I am dropping them and filling in with other people. I have some people I could recruit. I don't want to end up wasting free wings. Chicks is kind of a waste too.
Joe - i forwarded the text to Adrian and he responsed with Got it Joe. I am texting him again to see if he understands that I sent him the text and not you. Adrian says he is eating Wings on Thursday, so add him to the list.
Happy Birthday Barry!!!Also, do you know anything going on with Storm Johnson? I heard LSU offered him a scholarship (I think an asst jumped the gun) and they wanted to commit to LSU but Les Miles pulled the scholarship offer. I think him and his dad drove to LSU to commit and then they found out he had no offer.He is a 4 star by Rivals and a 3-star #29 ranked RB by Scout. He is 6'1", 215 pounds with 4.5 speed.

Chip said he might be interested. Just need to know which Hooters.
Responding to an earlier post (way earlier.) Joanna and I are planning on celebrating our 30th birthdays with a Bambi Walk. It will either be on 9/18 or 9/19. The 18th is a Friday and may be a little harder to accomplish since we won't be able to start too terribly early. Saturday the 19th is the UL/UK football game which may make for a super long day of drinking if we do it after the game. Final details will come later.Speaking of details, Brock, what's going on with the bachelor party?
Brock, it is the Dupont Hooter's. He can be number 10 if Brody doesn't want it. I just don't want 11 people to show up.

tribute to the hover-round
Maybe that crazy Sypher lady isn't so crazy afterall.She claimed Pitino raped her and then gave her $3000 for an abortion. Turns out, Pitino claims he had consensual sex with her, then gave her $3K for an abortion.
Joe, give me a heads up tomorrow if you need Chip and I'll let him know. My money is he might be able to out-eat any of the current 9.Chris, the only detail is that we're doing the event on the 25th-27th of September. I'd like to take the Friday off. N'Awlins sound nice, but apparently that's an issue for a number of people. Based on the previous N'Awlins adventure, what do you think is the fewest attendees to make it worthwhile. IMO if I'm there, its enough!Otherwise, its Nashville.
thanks fellas.wes, the storm story is kinda crazy (right up there with the rueben randall deangelo benton story-not as crazy as the dexter pratt story). the rumor mill says storm was all lsu, and we told him to stay quiet to avoid scaring off lache seastrunk. storm's dad went public, now storm officially does not have an offer. some debate over whether he ever had one.http://www.tigerdroppings.com/rant/....asp?p=14558593
I don't know what the worst part of the story is?
i'm amazed pitino made the front page
he is convinced he did no wrong
dude, if you're gonna cheat on your wife, wear a fucking condom at least. how much clout does he have that the owner of porcini's just gave him the keys to lock up after he got done fucking that chick
Barry - you have to explain these two stories to me because I have no clue what you are talking about."right up there with the rueben randall deangelo benton story-not as crazy as the dexter pratt story"
Rick is great friends with the owner of Porcini's, hence why he is there often.
Barry - Trust me us UK fans are praying he falls in our laps. The thinking being that the opportunity to play against LSU while at UK could be a big motivational factor. I think if UK gets to 8 or 9 wins this year we could have a big recruiting class, no where near LSU big but probably top 30 again, which is great for us.
A comment on the Pitino/Sypher saga.“Adultery and paying for mistress’s abortion…Billy Clyde you have been check raised my friend.”
that's great
There is a difference between winning and screwing up in your personal life and being a drunk and losing.
Joe - being a loser is the big "L", therefore it is a state function. Since it is a state function, the pathway it takes to be tabulated a Loser is irrelevant.So I guess the question is does Ricky P take a leave of absence? Like I said before, I pesonally think this is why Ralph Willard was brought on so if he did take a leave he had a guy that knew how to run a program at the reigns or if he decided to resign he wouldn't leave the program in shambles.Now for the predictions. I bet Rick Pitino gets two technicals in the game before the UK game so he can't coach against UK in Rupp. I just don't see Rick being able to take 26,000 fans chanting Kar-en Sy-pher all game long.And how is he going to handle the Big East fans? I don't think he coaches a lot of games this year.
UK-UL will be fun indeed. at least now it's clear why Richard left for florida, so he wouldn't be stuck in an awkward position of supposedly being pissed at his dad and defending his boss, of course it's no surprise. what i find funny is people saying how bad they feel for his wife and kids, when he has been estranged from his wife for years. Money is the only reason they're still married on paper
My point had nothing to do with Pitino losing off the court. BAsically it was that Billy G has nothing to do with this. Billy G is gone for not winning basketball games. AS long as you win basketball games there is a nice double standard where they will make excuses to keep you where if you are not winning as much on the court they will create excuses to get rid of you.
you know this ain't the whole story though, the big question is still why tim sypher married this crazy bitch six months after his boss boinked her and paid for her abortion
you're right joe, and if UL sucks this year, the heat will be on big time for pitino, but if they have a good year, the whole thing blows over
exactly. 2 negatives don't make a positive in this case.
Joe - I am just saying it doesn't matter if you booze it up and are a loser or screw up your personal life and are a loser. Bottom line you are a loser and it doesn't matter how you go there.Why did Tim marry her? Easier for her to receive "payments" or get the benefits that Pitino "owed" her.Personally, I think Pitino was emotionally involved with her and he probably promised her things or talked about leaving his wife for her and he never did. There is no way a woman takes this case against Pitino unless she is a woman scorned. I think she realizes there is no way she can win, and I am convinced she doesn't care to win. Her goal is to take his reputation from him, as that is his most prized posession. She will destroy his name and she will go to prison for doing so, and she will be happy with that.
What does she have to lose, nothing. What does he have to lose, everything.
Both Billy and Rick are losers off the court. That is well established. The on the court differences are what have saved Rick. Was Vince Lombardi and Bear Bryant respected for their personality and character off the field? They won games and as a coach that is all that matters. Once you start losing games these "flaws" off the field/court come up and are used against you.
Oh I agree, but that doesn't mean you aren't a "loser". You just happen to win games while being a loser.
Has he technically done anything illegal or just immoral?
so we are pretty much saying the same thing.
Yes we are saying the same thing.He hasn't done anything illegal, unless he raped her. Like I said, i don't see how she can prove he raped her and I don't think it matters at this point. She is going down in flames and she is trying to take him with her. She is set out to destroy his reputation and that is it.
I am by no means defending him at all. I'm just saying he will keep his job.
Oh UofL won't fire him. If he leaves, he resigns, but he is too stubborn to do that.
Anyone actually thinks he shows up to Rupp this year?
He's lived with her around since 2003, I think he will be fine.
Yeah he lived with her around since 2003, but it wasn't public since 2003. Image is huge in his world.Like I said, i don't think he will leave and I hope he takes it like a man in visiting arenas, but I just have a hard time believing he can and will.
he's gonna have to get "sick" or something before the UK game, or else it will be brutal, just bad, like super bad. i'll be the first to give him props if he takes it like a man though and shows up. like i said though, there's got to be another shoe to drop on this, it ain't over. the kicker will be if someone reporter grows some a nutsack and does some kind of investigative report on his personal life in general, although i don't see that happening, even though it's almost public knowledge he's a scumbag. i think if he starts losing it'll be more likely
I am thinking about right now he is thinking why didn't I just give her the $10M she wanted.Here is the other kicker, he said he would defend his family. Makes me wonder if something involved his boy Richard?
Pitino's contract does have a morality clause in it. Could be interesting.http://www.courier-journal.com/arti...morality+clause
I think not showing up for a game is a bit dramatic. He is Rick Pitino, the person who took UK to the promise land. Nobody gives a damn that he banged this chic in a bathroom while giving her a swirly. It will be business as usual, just this year...hopefully, UK will be back on top dominating.
If he had a dollar for every time he cheated on his wife, just think how many $3,000 abortions he could have had.
If he shows up he better take the Karen Sypher chants like a man.
The only way he won't be there is if he takes a leave of absense for the entire season which I don't see happening.
I don't know where all this "if" came from anyways.
wes - benton was a verbal commit in 2007 from bastrop, la (4* wr). he did not make his grades and recommitted in 08 did not make his grades again. randall was the #1 receiver in the country last year also from bastrop. the two played together, are very similar in stature and likely would have cometed for the same position. we were very focused on randall and banking benton would not qualify again. benton opened his recruitment with offers from us and auburn. 2 days before nsd, randall's dad was on the local radio and when asked about lsu said "well there's a depth issue at lsu." randall did not think he and benton should be on the same team because one of them would not play and they are both great players /friends. so the day before nsd, les pulled benton's offer. benton signed with auburn-we got randall. probably the right move, but sketchy.i don't really know what the hell happened with pratt. he was a 4* athlete that committed in the 09 class. he graduated early and was on campus in january. something went wrong with the clearinghouse stuff (this is where its fuzzy), so he backed out and committed to oklahoma state. don't know what happened, just know his family is pissed off.
Very interesting stuff. Can the Big 12 take partial qualifiers?
just got back from gym, espn is speculating on whether or not he'll take a leave, what was interesting was they had andy katz talking about it, not pat forde. apparently there's going to be a press conference this afternoon
and pitino's lawyer made a statement he didn't think pitino would take a leave, and it's not a press confernce, jurich is issuing a statement this afternoon
Joe, check your e-mail
Joe, Marc is in for tomorrow.
Sweet. We got 10. Brock, Chip is out for tomorrow.
Fuck what about T-Pain?
T-Pain can pay for himself.
Are you all going to keep individual tallies on the wings? I'd like to take bets on who eats the most and who is the dead weight.
I don't think the service will be good enough to allow for an adequate amount to really keep a tally. We will all be full when we leave but not stuffed.
That's a cop-out.
It only goes for an hour so I am sure there service will lag.
good comment from the deadspin pitino article:I do suppose this means that Pitino can't wear white anymore.
I wonder if Vegas if involved.
From Matt Jone's blog...In the mean time, Pitino’s attorney says that the money given was “for health insurance” and “not explicitly for an abortion.” That is called backtracking ladies and gentlemen.
terry meiners just had the most awkward intro to his show i've ever heard in my life trying to talk about, but not talk about the rick pitino thing. he started off talking about how he's a friend first, then a talk show host, but he wasn't going to ignore it, that he's had conversations in the past, but he's not going to talk about them, and proceeded to ramble on about how it's a bad situation for all involved, but wouldn't give any details. very high on the unintentional comedy scale as you could hear the beads of sweat dripping off his forehead

WINGS!!!!! I'm going with the liquid diet of powerade and water except for a small sandwich around 11:30. I hope to bring my A game this evening.
was it 5:30 or 6?
5:30.
Douglas, when is your daughter's first day of school?
I'm excited for wings. I have already decided to have a small lunch. I'm going to crush some wings.
Hulk smash!
August 20. kaelyn's in vegas right now
Awesome, I am skipping lunch as well.
i can't skip lunch, i have to make sure my stomach is stretched and ready to go
i'll just drop a big load before i leave work to free up some room
I am sure you will have plenty of reading material today with the Pitino/Sypher saga going on.
Here's my question, if Pitino resigns or gets fired does Jurich leave?
stupid question because neither will happen.
When will Phil buy one of these t-shirts?http://totees.spreadshirt.com/us/US...E-BILLS-4938609
guy at work, louisville fan, just told me jurich is every bit the philanderer pitino is. apparently he just keeps it under wraps more. so he laughed at the notion jurich would fire pitino. another guy i work with, craig hawley, who played at UL in the 80's under crum and won a title i believe, said crum was utterly notorious for sleeping around, which is why UCLA never hired him, b/c of his reputation
His reputation won him the heart of Susan Sweeney. Who is the big winner?
So this dude goes backpacking around in Europe for 2 weeks, tells his girl who apparently doesn't listen. And here are the emails. This shit cracks me up.http://www.todaysbigthing.com/2009/08/11
Yeah but it's a good hypothetical. Ramsey doesn't look to be pretty happy.
I think Ramsey is more upset over the flood damage
I disagree. Flood damage is an act of God and is out of man's control. Pitino made choices to pay for an abortion. Morality issues are not good for universities that are suppose to educate and shape the mind's of youths. The issue isn't the affair it is paying for an abortion. And if you think he gave her $3000 to buy medical insurance I have some shit in my basement I want to sell you.Here's the thing, as things get investigated deeper....more and more will come out. Pitino should offer to pay her off to shut her up ASAP.
Honestly, I don't care about this situation. We all know how UofL is going to handle it, it's a non-issue to Jurich. The only one who can fire him will be Ramsey and in order to do that he will have to fire Jurich as well. And for him to decide that, he will have to decide if the money that UofL basketball brings into the university is enough for him to turn his back.
PIT made the point that he is fine. It may hurt recruiting but in the long run he is not the one on trial. He will be the issue until the next time Josh Hamilton falls off the wagon or Vick dog fights and then we will all forget about him.
Erik Kuselias on Mike & Mike this morning said something to the effect of he is lucky he is Rick Pitino and at the University of Louisville. If he were at Notre Dame for example, he would already be fired.
The fans won't forget though, he will have a nice rude awakening on the road this year.I won't be surprised if the opposition has "Baby Adoption Day" when Rick Pitino and UofL come to town.Also, now Rick Pitino can capitalize on this by speaking from experience and speaking out about abortions and being pro-life after this incident. I can already see the millions of dollars flowing into Central Bank.
Notre Dame goes to the NIT.
And the whole catholic thing.
He is already on a speaking tour with people like 1) Colin Powell, 2) Terry Bradshaw, 3) Zig Ziglar, 4) Rick Pitino, 5) Rudy Giuliani, 6) Dr. Robert Schuller.If he was at ND and winning I would question the firing. Punished to a degree, yes.
the whole catholic thing is a cover up anyway. the church's official stance is anti-abortion, sure, but a good majority of practicing catholics don't give a flying fuck about it
Joe - can we build one for the next cookout?http://www.break.com/pictures/ingen...rill962632.html
Phil - You can get a drink for your cat.http://www.break.com/pictures/terri...idea962629.html
Joe - what time are you getting to Hooters? Is there a reservation under Burket or anything like that?
I assume the Hooters throwdown will be at the one on Dutchmans Lane. Am I correct?
joe, you get my e-mail? not sure what your work blocks in terms of content, but that was kinda long so who knows.
Dutchman's lane, I am getting there around 5:20 or so depending on traffic and stuff getting home. I got an email from you early this morning.
When is our fantasy draft? How many players did we have?
we need one more. is rory gonna sign up?

WINGS!!
Why did we do that?
So, what's the tally?
I think the total number of wings ordered was something like 620 for 12 people.
620
who's in the top 3...who where the 12?
I think Chris and Joe were in the 70s, I was at 54 (stole 4 wings from Douglas and Laura) but started late in the penalty box as they forgot my order. But I wasn't going to eat that much.13 People there eatingJoeLauraChrisMr. BurketAdrianMarcDouglasJoannaScrogginsMichelle (Jay's)JayCubanand Me
620 for 12? I'm starting the slow clap for all of you
620 was the 11. Joanna and Jay's Michelle were on their own. Chris, me and my dad all hovered around 70. I think my dad was overall teh most impressive. Chris' 50 in 11 minutes was quite a showing.
"what are you a doctor or a nurse"that was a great comment from Marcus to Chris.
Chris's 50 in 11 minutes was disgusting but I could not look away
If you can't tell by the 6:59 post I was awake a little early
Why do we do this to ourselves?
Girl sitting next to me at work brought in donuts and offered me one and I declined so she called me out so I pulled out the reciept and she took back her comments.
Using it as your new man card. Well played.
I've been challenged to a White Castle lunch...I think I might.
Dude you are going to shit a squirrel
It was white castle or chug a bottle of ranch.
This can't be good for UofL. Anti-abortion group wants him out.http://www.courier-journal.com/arti...ants+Pitino+out
Joe, we had a White Castle challenge at my old job. I came in second with 18. The winner ate 21. I'm counting on you to beat that.
the rest of Louisville wants Kragthorpe out but Jurich does what he wants.
I'm just going to white castle for lunch, no eating challege.
Did you even read the article Wes? It is Cardinals for Life, a group of students. I don't call that a legitimate anti abortion group. Hell, I bet 2 of my cousins that go to UL are part of it. Basically they protest and say the rosary in front of clinics and were right to life shirts.
Of course I read it, it just takes one to get the ball rolling Joe.
Here is their view on the issue: Abortion is murder and because he did wrong god will punish him. So if god wants him fired he will fire him. It isn't up to Ramsey or Jurich it is up to the big G-O-D.
And like I said the ball is rolling, outlets are reporting the abortion group want him out so it is just a matter of time before other anti-abortion groups get involved. Also, apparently this is huge news, in the rest of the country so it will be really interesting how UofL handles all the negative publicity.Personally, I think he will be gone but that is just me.http://www.google.com/#hl=en&q=...ec80112f99bfde5
If you pray really really hard and give your money to the church then maybe pitino will get fired.
I don't care if he gets fired or not. I am just saying it is getting out there and when people start fussing about it that is when it becomes a big deal and really puts UofL in the spotlight.
Someone will make a donation to a charity and everything will be ok. If Pitino really had an issue with anything his mafia connections would have taken care of it.
i wouldn't say bad about pitino, according to karen sypher he'll put you in concrete shoes. what's your shoe size?
was it her or her kids he was going to put in concrete shoes?
Vick signs with Philadelphia, you know who is happy about that, Rick Pitino. Pitino isn't going anywhere...unless he can't recruit or win games, as long as he wins, he stays.
Donte Stallworth is happy about that too. what is the worst: manslaughter with a car, dogfighting or abortion?
Too bad our crew doesn't have many single guys left. But thought I'd pass this along, so that maybe Philco can sleep with out of town women. http://louisville.craigslist.org/tf...1310151378.html
i am neither 6 foot tall nor athletic. I'm out!Besides, I wouldn't want Louisville to be represented as the city where all the guys try to get the girl to drink as much tequila as possible on a Thursday night, and then get dry humped. I just have too much civic pride to sign up, even if I was attractive enough to get on that show
pitino will not be removed. get over it. national right to life, the gop, and the pope himself denouncing his actions will not get him fired as long as he wins. most people are not upset about the abortion, but the infidelity. don't forget he works at a university, no one there cares he paid for an abortion.
He went about it wrong. He should just have told her to get a shmasmortion at the shmasmortion clinic. That would have given him plausible deniablility
have the kid, let a dog attack it and then run over both drunkenly with a car and be found with pot in your possession.
Dom gives two thumbs up to the performers of the wing challenge. He's our resident competitive eating champ.I think Chris' numbers are something to grow upon. The wing bowl in Philly is two 14 minute periods, and a final two minute period. Here are last years results:Jon “Super” Squibb - 203 wings - his facebook pageNot Rich 180Hank the Tank 153Da Disposal 153Cadillac Corrigan 132Other 5 semi-finalists (results are from end of first round)Officer Beast 90Frank de Fraud 87Stormin Norman 83Obi Wing 83 (disqualified for vomiting in the second round)Gluteus Maximus 79I think, with training, Chris can make the top 10
Chris' performance was hindered by finishing 50 and having to wait for the next 50. Plus he didn't prepare because he was a 4:00 call joe and see if there is a spot open so he had a legitimate lunch I think from a drug rep.
Douglas - Here's your chance for the greater good.1 point for each one you run over.http://www.courier-journal.com/arti...lth+care+reform
My son Alan got to break one off for St. Martha at their scrimmage this morning ... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i_dBFT9btYcThis is one of those proud dad moments you can look forward to, Wes ...
My boy would have shook off that last defender.
Good stuff Jerome.
Thanks Jerome, now next time I go to my parents house I'l lbe breaking out their VHS tapes of me as a pee-wee football player.
Is it sad when a charity softball tournament that revolved around beer turns into an arguement about making a team forfeit for not having enough girls on their team?
Is anyone interested in a camping trip Labor Day weekend?
This place is dead. Anything exciting go on this weekend? All day softball tournaments and beer don't mix well. I think I was already hungover by the end of the tournament. I kept drinking but it was immediatly sweating out of me.
Cheryl-maybe.
FYI, if you drop an MP-3 player in a glass of ice water it ends up getting really hot and the buttons quit working and then it all together quits working.
To me it sounds like there was enough bitching going on in that softball game so there were plenty of girls on the field.
This place is dead.
so my AC busts yesterday and i spent last night sleeping in a house at 85 degrees. spent all morning waiting for the fucking AC guy to show up, finally shows up, does 5 minutes of work, and says that'll be 265 dollars
Refilled the freon?
That is why you kiss ass with the neighbors and drink beer with them and grill out with them and set off fireworks with them and let them park their Mercedes in your garage. Greg is the man.
and keg stands and jello shots and tequila shots
no, wasn't the freon, they had to replace a part, the fabricator maybe, it wasn't the motor. he said the freon was fine, it just really sucked last night trying to fall asleep. i had every fan in the house on, brought up another fan in the basement and put it in my room, and had to sleep with no covers, which sucks. he said it should be back to normal by the time i get home
That blows
of course what sucks more is that sarah found out her boss's brother does HVAC work and could've looked at it for free, but i didn't have the luxury of waiting around to find someone to do it for cheap, i needed it done before tonight or else we were hotel-ing it
Jesus Christ the heat is one thing but couldn't imagine doing that with the humidity the way it was last night.
Jay and Brock - Where are the wedding dates and when are the bachelor parties????
being a homeowner sucks.
the humidity wasn't too bad b/c the furnace motor was still working so there was air blowing through the house. although i was quite happy the stupid AC chose like the hottest weekend of the year to blow
Yeah that sucks.Similar shit happened to Abby and I. Last summer when it was basically the same temperature/humidity as last night we lost power so I sent Abby and AJ to her parents while I stayed at the house.Another time we were low on freon and the AC froze up.And after that one the AC froze up again because it wasn't getting enough return air. The filter was completely blocked from sanding the stupid drywall when we built out basement.Fun times.
I think you intentionally shut off the power and told Abby and AJ to leave and sat around drinkin cold beer by yourself
I second Joe's logic.Wedding is 10/10/09Bachelor Party is the weekend of 9/25....since it hasn't been mentioned, ever!
I am definitely out for your bachelor party. My anniversary is that Sunday.
Never bring a bat to a gun fight.http://www.break.com/index/red_neck..._road_rage.html
If you guys fast forward to about 4 minutes you can skip a bunch of nonsense.
Cantwell went from hero to goat in the Monday Night game last night. TD pass and 2 pt conversion to tie the game up with 57 seconds left and then comes back after a 3 and out and fumbles that was returned for a TD.
Wedding is November 14th. Bachelor party is going to be around halloween. I'm thinking we should just do a dragon stagger.
this place is dead, you all suck. wedding talk killed the site again
So the 19th of September is the UL - UK game at noon. Chris mentioned a birthday Bambi walk that weekend. What sounds worse, friday bambi walk then hungover for the game or drink during the game and then bambi walk after the game?
Anybody want to sit around and watch football and drink beer on the 12th of September for my birthday?
Get drunk Labor day weekend the 5th, because I can, get drunk my birthday weekend the 12th, get drunk joanna's birthday weekend the 18th with the bambi walk, get drunk chris' birthday weekend the 25th with the bachelor party. I love September!
Strasburg signed with the Nationals:Washington got it done, agreeing with Strasburg on a record-breaking contract worth about $15 million over four years. The struggling team and the hard-throwing right-hander resolved everything at “11:58 and 43 seconds,” Nationals president Stan Kasten said.“People thought it would take to the last minute,” Kasten said, smiling. “We didn’t even need that last minute.”The deal is worth roughly 50 percent more than the previous highest guaranteed deal for a player in baseball’s amateur draft, the $10.5 million pitcher Mark Prior(notes) got from the Chicago Cubs in 2001.
which one of you posted this?(502): Its sad we have to plan out fun a month in advance. 30 sucks.
Phil, you've got competition...(630): I sat a few seats down and one row behind a cute girl at the Cubs game today. Having watched her talk to the guy next to her, I found out only her name and age. I then used that information and pieced it together with over 500 girls on Facebook with the same name. I found the same girl, and we're now fbook friends.(1-630): if being a creepy fuck was an olympic sport, they'd think you were using performance enhancing drugs...
you know, there was a kinda cute girl in front of me at kroger at the uscan. Enough to stare at while waiting at target, but that's it. Well, she left in a hurry and didn't take her receipt.So after I checked out I grabbed her receipt too because it was attached to mine just to see if I could figure out who she was based on her kroger plus card. Just for practice - she definitely wasn't stalker worthy, but when the time comes it's nice to have that tool in the arsenal, ya know?Well, the official ruling is that kroger plus cards do a good enough job protecting your name. But I do have a suspicion that she still lives at home because according to her card it says that she's saved over $4000 at kroger this year.
How come nobody has talked about Favre coming back? All this talk about weddings, bachelor parties...what's happened to you people?
I just saw at lunch that Favre is on a plane and going to sign. Cris Carter almost had a stroke.
Funny video of a local guy feeling entitled mouthing off to a judge and the judge just puts him in his place.http://www.wlky.com/news/20431449/detail.html

Favre comes back, sage rosenfel and tavarius jackson fight for 2 and 3 and poor John David Booty gets cut.
if i was surprised i'd be more inclined to talk about it
I figured we all knew he would come back. And he would eventually get to play for the Vikings which pisses GB off.
Wow - Douglas and I are sharing a brain. Scary.

so for the bachelor party it would be wise to take off that Friday?
I'm thinking take of Friday and be back at work on Monday. Is that what everyone else is thinking?
That's the general consensus.
I might be able to swing Nashville.

not good news for wellemeyer, the cardinals are signing john smoltz:http://www.stltoday.com/stltoday/sp...C5?OpenDocumentThe Cardinals also have groped for consistency from their No. 5 starter this season largely because of Todd Wellemeyer's erratic mechanics.Entering Tuesday night's start, fifth-starter candidates Wellemeyer, Brad Thompson, P.J. Walters and Mitchell Boggs carried a combined 10-15 record and 5.45 ERA and had allowed 320 baserunners in 188 1/3 innings. Wellemeyer was a 13-game winner in 2008 but lost his starting role last month before landing on the disabled list Aug. 11 with elbow inflammation.

how exactly is a gender verification test a long and arduous process? pull down your pants, any stitches where your dick used to be, okay, we're done. you need a psychologist, endocrinologist, and an expert on gender to determine if a dude had his dick cut off? really? and how do you become an expert on gender, I think i learned everything I needed to know in preschool. boys have a penis, girls have a vagina. so am i an expert?http://msn.foxsports.com/other/stor...-runner-Semenya
Still need one more for fantasy football...
Way to keep it classy.This bitch is lucky this kids uncle didn't beat her silly.http://crimeblog.dallasnews.com/arc...uffle-over.html
these made me chuckle. E-Doug, this came from schum to another guy in my office to me. I don't know how he knows Schum.I wish Google Maps had an "Avoid Ghetto" routing option. More often than not, when someone is telling me a story all I can think about is that I can’t wait for them to finish so that I can tell my own story that’s not only better, but also more directly involves me. Nothing sucks more than that moment during an argument when you realize you're wrong. I don't understand the purpose of the line, "I don't need to drink to have fun." Great, no one does. But why start a fire with flint and sticks when they've invented the lighter? Have you ever been walking down the street and realized that you're going in the complete opposite direction of where you are supposed to be going? But instead of just turning a 180 and walking back in the direction from which you came, you have to first do something like check your watch or phone or make a grand arm gesture and mutter to yourself to ensure that no one in the surrounding area thinks you're crazy by randomly switching directions on the sidewalk. That's enough, Nickelback. I totally take back all those times I didn't want to nap when I was younger. The letters T and G are very close to each other on a keyboard. This recently became all too apparent to me and consequently I will never be ending a work email with the phrase "Regards" again. Do you remember when you were a kid, playing Nintendo and it wouldn't work? You take the cartridge out, blow in it and that would magically fix the problem. Every kid in America did that, but how did we all know how to fix the problem? There was no internet or message boards or FAQ's. We just figured it out. Today's kids are soft. There is a great need for sarcasm font. Sometimes, I'll watch a movie that I watched when I was younger and suddenly realize I had no idea what was going on when I first saw it. I think everyone has a movie that they love so much, it actually becomes stressful to watch it with other people. I'll end up wasting 90 minutes shiftily glancing around to confirm that everyone's laughing at the right parts, then making sure I laugh just a little bit harder (and a millisecond earlier) to prove that I'm still the only one who really, really gets it. The other night I hit a new low at an open bar. I had already hopped on highway blackout when, inevitably I had to find a bathroom. Eventually I decided it was probably on the other side of the bar so I tried to walk over there, but ran into a guy coming the other way. We played that, Both go left, Both go right game to no avail, so I finally put out my hand to guide myself past and that’s is when I realized, yup, that’s a mirror I just tried to walk through. And the guy on the other side is me. Even cats can re cognize their own image. How the hell are you supposed to fold a fitted sheet? I would rather try to carry 10 plastic grocery bags in each hand than take 2 trips to bring my groceries in. I think part of a best friend's job should be to immediately clear your computer history if you die. The only time I look forward to a red light is when I’m trying to finish a text.
A recent study has shown that playing beer pong contributes to the spread of mono and the flu. Yeah, if you suck at it. Was learning cursive really necessary? Lol has gone from meaning, "laugh out loud" to "I have nothing else to say". I have a hard time deciphering the fine line between boredom and hunger. Answering the same letter three times or more in a row on a Scantron test is absolutely petrifying. Whenever someone says "I'm not book smart, but I'm street smart", all I hear is "I'm not real smart, but I'm imaginary smart". How many times is it appropriate to say "What?" before you just nod and smile because you still didn't hear what they said? I love the sense of camaraderie when an entire line of cars teams up to prevent a dick from cutting in at the front. Stay strong, brothers! Every time I have to spell a word over the phone using 'as in' examples, I will undoubtedly draw a blank and sound like a complete idiot. Today I had to spell my boss's last name to an attorney and said "Yes that's G as in...(10 second lapse)..ummm...Goonies" What would happen if I hired two private investigators to follow each other? While driving yesterday I saw a banana peel in the road and instinctively swerved to avoid it...thanks Mario Kart. MapQuest really needs to start their directions on #5. Pretty sure I know how to get out of my neighborhood. Obituaries would be a lot more interesting if they told you how the person died. I find it hard to believe there are actually people who get in the shower first and THEN turn on the water. Shirts get dirty. Underwear gets dirty. Pants? Pants never get dirty, and you can wear them forever.I would like to officially coin the phrase 'catching the swine flu' to be used as a way to make fun of a friend for hooking up with an overweight woman. Example: "Dave caught the swine flu last night." I can't remember the last time I wasn't at least kind of tired. Bad decisions make good stories If Carmen San Diego and Waldo ever got together, their offspring would probably just be completely invisible. Why is it that during an ice-breaker, when the whole room has to go around and say their name and where they are from, I get so incredibly nervous? Like I know my name, I know where I'm from, this shouldn't be a problem... You never know when it will strike, but there comes a moment at work when you've made up your mind that you just aren’t doing anything productive for the rest of the day. Can we all just agree to ignore whatever comes after DVDs? I don't want to have to restart my collection. There's no worse feeling than that millisecond you're sure you are going to die after leaning your chair back a little too far.
I'm always slightly terrified when I exit out of Word and it asks me if I want to save any changes to my ten page research paper that I swear I did not make any changes to. "Do not machine wash or tumble dry" means I will never wash this ever. I hate being the one with the remote in a room full of people watching TV. There's so much pressure. 'I love this show, but will they judge me if I keep it on? I bet everyone is wishing we weren’t watching this. It's only a matter of time before they all get up and leave the room. Will we still be friends after this?' While watching the Olympics, I find myself cheering equally for China and USA. No, I am not of Chinese descent, but I am fairly certain that when Chinese athletes don’t win, they are executed. I hate when I just miss a call by the last ring (Hello? Hello? Damnit!), but when I immediately call back, it rings nine times and goes to voicemail. What'd you do after I didn't answer? Drop the phone and run away? I hate leaving my house confident and looking good and then not seeing anyone of importance the entire day. What a waste. I like all of the music in my iTunes, except when it's on shuffle, then I like about one in every fifteen songs in my iTunes. Why is a school zone 20 mph? That seems like the optimal cruising speed for pedophiles... As a driver I hate pedestrians, and as a pedestrian I hate drivers, but no matter what the mode of transportation, I always hate cyclists. Sometimes I'll look down at my watch 3 consecutive times and still not know what time it is. It should probably be called Unplanned Parenthood. I keep some people's phone numbers in my phone just so I know not to answer when they call. I think that if, years down the road when I’m trying to have a kid, I find out that I’m sterile, most of my disappointment will stem from the fact that I was not aware of my condition in college. Even if I knew your social security number, I wouldn't know what do to with it. Even under ideal conditions people have trouble locating their car keys in a pocket, hitting the G-spot, and Pinning the Tail on the Donkey - but I’d bet my ass everyone can find and push the Snooze button from 3 feet away, in about 1.7 seconds, eyes closed, first time every time... My 4-year old son asked me in the car the other day "Dad what would happen if you ran over a ninja?" How the hell do I respond to that? It really pisses me off when I want to read a story on CNN.com and the link takes me to a video instead of text. I wonder if cops ever get pissed off at the fact that everyone they drive behind obeys the speed limit. I think the freezer deserves a light as well. I disagree with Kay Jewelers. I would bet on any given Friday or Saturday night more kisses begin with Miller Lites than Kay. The other night I ordered takeout, and when I looked in the bag, saw they had included four sets of plastic silverware. In other words, someone at the restaurant packed my order, took a second to think about it, and then estimate d that there must be at least four people eating to require such a large amount of food. Too bad I was eating by myself. There’s nothing like being made to feel like a fat bastard before dinner.
i agree with everyone of those
Joe, you just made my day
I was trying to resurrect the site today, but apparently everyone died.
Tentative Bachelor Party Plan:Memphis - Thanks to Chris' excellent brainstorming and they apparently have a vacancy in the Final Four we could use.Hotel prices are good, distance is manageable, plenty of alcoholic establishments, and places to get murdered (as long as I don't die on the bathroom floor with my pants around my ankles like Elvis).Plan is to have folks from Cincy and Louisville meet down in Nashville throughout Thursday and then carpool down to Memphis either late that night or early Friday. Drive back on Sunday.
not sure if anyone's heard of this movie "I Hope They Serve Beer in Hell" but it looks fucking fantastic:http://www.ihopetheyservebeerinhell.com/it's based on a book by the same name written by tucker max, some dude from kentucky, who just wrote down his old drunk stories and got them published
Douglas - funny you bring that up but I was just looking at those trailers.Wierd.
I asked my buddy who grew up in memphis and now lives in nashville on her opinion. Her response "And the correct answer would be Nashville, of course. You can get shot so very easily in Memphis and a group of drunk, white boys is a walking target."
there we go sharing a brain again wes, you're so screwed. or am i screwed? either way, it can't be good for society in general
and it's weird by the way
Who the wants to go to Memphis?
Sorry who the fuck wants to go to Memphis?
I like how Brock has no say in his own bachelor party
After the Calipari news yesterday, sitting at home and watching Blue Chips on HDnet movies just feels right.
No, I have the say. The guys from Cincy jumped on board immediately (probably because Cincy is scarier than Memphis) and people in Nashville don't mind.If you want to get elitist about where you get hammered and make a fool of yourself, then you probably aren't qualified to make up a good bachelor party.I typically take the advice of a FEMALE for a bachelor party with a grain of salt.Besides, it would be completely new terrain for Chris to puke on.
If people want to go to Nashville, Brock is always there and you can go see him in Nashville any weekend.
now that i think about it think she wanted me in nashville for booty related purposes. memphis it is!
Well said Joe. I even have a fully stocked bar in my living room.
Where can I get a bullet proof vest
Memphis would be fun, very much New Orleansesque. My mom goes to Memphis annually for work and they go out drinking and stay out till about midnight or so. she hasn't been mugged or shot yet, therefore, if a couple middleaged women can survive Memphis, I am sure a group of 20-30 year old men could as well.
Brock what day is you bachelor party? Need to make sure I am not on call.
joe got trapped in like an applesbees in danville because of the prison riots. im sure he'll have updates soon
The bachelor party is planned for the weekend of September 25th. The tentative plan is to have most people meet up on Thursday night in Nashville and we drive down either late Thursday or Friday AM depending on the headcount. Return on Sunday.Just like Chris' N'Awlins adventure, some will prefer to come down Friday, so just give me a heads up and Ty will start setting up the hotel reservations.
Anybody know why the mousepad on a laptop would go out after a month or how to fix it?
KFC Has A Bacon Sandwich That Uses Fried Chicken http://consumerist.com/5342699/kfc-...uot;Bread"
hey joe - could be a few things. might just be that it got disabled with some weird keyboard press. some laptops have some weird shit like that. like mine will turn the monitor off and do weird stuff if i press Fn-F2.Other than that, the cable might have become disconnected on the inside of the laptop. It might just have died. The thing should be on warranty...
I have a 1 year limited warranty where they will tell me to ship it back or take it to a licensed Acer dealer to get it fixed. I need to call or go online to find out what to do.
I will have to say, a good prison riot of 1200 people with 3 buildings burning down makes for a good story.
I had no clue what was going on and I got a text from a random phone number. It turned out to be a girl I work with who knew I was in Danville who is from Danville. The text read "you all stay in your room. Mom called me about the riots." So that is how I found out there were riots.
looked it up. when you get home try pressing fn-F7. That toggles the touchpad on acer models.
I was playing with the fn buttons while trying to get the headphones to work since I was watching Pinky and the Brain and Superbad in the barn.
why were you in Danville? this seems to be another attempt by God to put you down
We still need one more for fantasy football.
I went to a horse show for some unknown reason. Laura took horses to a show there and I took booze, snacks and movies to the show. My quote to Phil if I remember correctly was "I think I am the only American here without a vag." If I wasn't allowed to drink I might have snapped.Sitting around at a horse show for two and a half days and faking that I enjoy being there is a tremondous trump card to hold on to.
When is the fantasy draft?
Is it Friday or Saturday?
I forgot I had the fantasy sports page open, draft is this Friday at 7 pm EDT.
live or online?
What do you mean?
Yahoo Sports says it is a "live online" so I guess we log in at home.
Friday at 7 sounds like a good excuse to sit around and drink.
Joe, you mind if we head on over there for the draft?
I'm down for a draft party. This year we won't have to hack the internet at my house since I know the password.
i was referring to the draft wes, and phil, you read my mind, that's why i was asking, b/c friday at 7pm is a much better time to sit around and drink than sit at home in front of the computer and rub one out between draft picks
Speak for yourself douglas - I have a penguin screen saver.
ha. here's a comic for you, joehttp://xkcd.com/627/
Phil, the article you posted is freakin hilarious.
i do what i can. i thought of photoshopping a walking taco into the background, but i'm lazy
I like your team, Brent ... especially since you didn't pick anyone from Houston because I hate the Oilers.
Phil, once I figured out how to print the document I did and made a few copies to share.
god i love the KY state fair. just heard a judge for the cow competition on the radio talk about what they look for when judging cows. "well you want 'em to be just like a woman, tall, skinny, with terrific udders." this judge was also a woman i must note
Nice Jerome, I think I have the only team that collects both an NFL salary and social security.
whats the plan if we dont get a dude to make it even numbers.do we have a bye week or would it be better to have a team out there ran with bare basic adjustments to keep them competitive.
this is pretty funnyhttp://twitter.com/shitmydadsayssome dude created a twitter account with all the shit his dad says.i liked this one"The dog is not bored, it's a fucking dog. It's not like he's waiting for me to give him a fucking rubix cube. He's a god damned dog."
so i was looking at the photos on that wreck with the test drive. so when i test drove my jetta the car saleman told me that theyd get people going 120 in GTIs and Jettas on that same road. It's wide open for the most part through there
Phil, Fn-F7 didn't work so I called Acer and they are sending me a recovery disk to do a system restore which I doubt will work and I'll have to call them back. During troubleshooting the guy on the phone kept telling me to click on things and right click but I had to keep telling them that it doesn't work. It was one of the dumbest hours of my life.
that's saying a lot
this is an article about billy gillispie in a san antonio newspaper. the article's fine, but I found this comment about him funny:http://www.mysanantonio.com/sports/..._yet_again.htmlGillispie will be a curse for any program he is part of. He will continue to drink his way into young girls lives. If he never signed a contract, what makes him think he will be paid what is spelled out in that contract. He is a tireless recruiter, but how many kids out there are willing to be torn down with out ever being built up. Face it, the Bobby Knight days are over. Hes a millionaire females cant even stand him. Kudos for Kentucky for coming to their senses and getting rid of this clown. Mr Harvey, why dont you do some research before picking buddies. Over half of his team at UK was either going to transfer or try for the next level if he were to return. I would choose Calipari over Gillispie any day. And that dirty little smirk you love is because he constantly passes gas. Enjoy.
Didn't every one know this about him before UK hired him?
that he passes gas? seriously though no, if you ask his A&M players about him, they love him, Acie Law will talk about him non-stop about how great of a guy and coach he is. I think he just didn't fit into UK with all the demands of doing things he didn't want to do and it carried over into his coaching. he's a great recruiter, you have to remember half of Cal's incoming class was Gillispie's and he had some other people on the radar, and you can't deny what he did before UK, i imagine he'll get a job at a smaller BCS school and do great in the next couple years, when all he has to do is coach and recruit and drink dr. pepper
I was more or less talking about the social aspect of him.
Gillespie only had 1 recruit that is worth mentioning when compared to the rest of what Calipari brought.
he already had bledsoe wrapped up, calipari had to go back to him and convince him to come to KY. that's on top of orton, and plus he had vilarino, who from what I hear has been doing well this summer in preseason stuff for gonzaga. i'm not saying he's anywhere near cal on recruiting, but he wasn't tubby either
Wikipedia vs Predatorhttp://wikipediavspredator.com/Not a lot out there that Predator won't whoop
Orton and Patterson and Bledsoe wasn't so bad.
He is still a fuck nut.
I saw a guy at Bellarmine today that looked exactly like hippie Barney Stinson. "Will I never see another rainbow"
Just a heads up. We'll be in town this weekend for this event:http://www.louisvillezoo.org/events/brew.htmCome watch me get into a drunken fight with a baboon.
Ted Kennedy dead.
This date commemorates the 1920 passage of the 19th Amendment to the Constitution, granting women the right to vote. What were we thinking?
they must've thought they could get more ass
Crazy broads. Now they think they can be president.
I can't wait for the in memory of Ted Kennedy healthcare reform bill.
dude it's already started. they've been waiting for him to die so they could name it after him
They won't name it after him. Rachel Phelps had them cross his name off the list.
I think John Calipari should replace him
Jerome, pretty soon I'll have to start feeding chow chow real dog food.
dude hasn't been dead 12 hours yet, told you so:http://www.politico.com/blogs/bensm...or_Kennedy.html
I listen to Laura Ingraham on 105.1 in the morning, she has been calling this for a couple days now. Just sickens me that Dems would use his passing in an emotional plea to pass the shitty reform.I am all for reform, but not this reformation bill.I also think that Senators should have a maximum time they can serve. They shouldn't be allowed to serve for more than 3 terms and then they have to vacate power.
Rick P Presser at 3. I wonder what this is about.
nice to see you creeping away from the dark side. and spontaneous press conferences are never good
UL signed some awesome recruit.
that doesn't warrant a press conference, and if that was the case, people would know about that
thought this comment on the C-J story was funny:PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEASE don't step down....PLEASE let us get just a couple more wins against you to make up for the two Billy years that you where able to get back to .500 vs. your old team (4-4 now).DO NOT QUIT! YOU GOT ATLEAST 2yrs left!!!!
Douglas I am a conservative Democrat. I guess the big difference between my views with Dems vs. Reps comes down to the idea of social programs vs. charitable giving. I give to charities, but I don't see anything wrong with the government funding programs that help people in need. There are some good people that shitty things happen to and need assistance and I am alright with that. Yes I hate when people take advantage of the system, but if you think about it everybody takes advantage of the system. This is just one example but how many people report shit they buy on the internet for their tax return? I know I don't.
You can't comment on a recruit until they sign, which isn't until Feb.I personally think this is his leave of absence or stepping down. I said from day 1 Ralph Willard was a calculated hire.
I thought you all would be intelligent enough to know that the recruit comment was a joke.
Well you are a UofL fan. I didn't know if you actually knew the game. :)
i knew it was, sometimes sarcasm doesn't translate to the written word very well though.
he's gotta be revealing something before the other shoe drops, I've been saying there's more to this story and it's only a matter of time. in the real world, you don't marry your boss's mistress whose abortion he just paid for, six months after it happened.
It would be funny if it was just some mind games and it is acutally basketball related.
it would be kinda funny, but he wouldn't come out of hiding for that.
I honestly expect it to be something along the lines of information being released that he wants to get his version out before her craziness is released later in the day or week.
It's probably that he is going on vacation to Hawaii and thought they'd like to know. I'd laugh my ass off at that one.
from what i hear it should be more entertaining than anything else...
How about money donations to the arena.
Can anybody fill me in on the first part? I got one when he said the FBI doesn't go after jaywalkers.
what was the point of that? he called her a liar, that's pretty much it, big deal
So WLKY just broadcasted it and Rick in nicer words told the media you know she is a lying slut so quit using her as a source and bring the facts after the trial, I made a mistake all of you can suck it.
I didn't have sound for the first part but he looks like he is cracking.
he just said he's lying, it was a mistake, happened six years ago, blah blah blah. nothing was learned, there was literally nothing new said about anything, there was no point to it
he said she's lying
He told the media to quit posting her lies and let the truth come out in court is what I got out of it.
i understand what he was saying, and what he was trying to do, but he went about it the wrong way. getting in front of the media, which for the most part has been covering your ass, and telling them to stop spreading lies, which for the most part they haven't, is not going to help your cause. he singled out fox 41 for airing the first sypher interview, but the problem is they edited that interview so bad that they never revealed they ever had sex, much less she was pregnant. they talk about sypher b/c she's out there talking, while he's holed up in a corner hoping this goes away. if he wanted to get his story out, do an interview with your buddy pat forde and answer only softball questions in a nice way that will be edited in your favor, don't talk a pointless presser and jump all over journalists for writing about things people want to hear about
That's great stuff. The media members had the WTF look on their faces.
I received this from a UofL fan."I have been a fan of Pitino's for awhile; he probably does not care, but I am seeing the light, so to speak. There appears to be some mental instability there. If anyone has seen "The Bunker", about Hitler's last days, this may be the long awaited sequel."
Sorry, that guy is a UK fan.
they were just making fun of pitino on the radio, playing his clips from the conference where he's saying she's lying over and over, while lachlan mclane keeps saying, "in case you haven't heard, she's lying, everybody got that?" and then they play another clip of pitino saying it's all lies. he just didn't come off very well. UL fans will say how passionate he was, UK fans will make fun of how angry he was, just more fuel for the rivalry i guess
Matt Jone makes an interesting point. Rick Pitino better hope no other woman steps up and claims she was fucking him at his UK days or any other woman that Rick has got fresh on. This could be a real train wreck waiting to happen.
Do you need a history lesson on who Hitler is?
I swear if Karen Sypher gets in a "Rick, how's my ass taste" comment I am going to fucking lose it.
Yeah, i saw matt's post, it was pretty good. "And oh yeah, when you said your lawyer, the FBI and the University didnt want you to talk publically….well now we know why."
Yes, and Hitler pretty much went crazy before he met his maker, well atleast, before we found somebody that matched his description and they met their maker.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bxCNCDWaWyE
For anybody that missed the press conference.http://www.wave3.com/Global/story.asp?S=10994907
rick bozich's twitter account:Just back from the press conference that Rick Pitino should not have called. Basically a press conference to announce he was angry.
i'm dying, pitino called the presser to tell the media to stop playing the sypher tapes, which i hadn't heard, but which i've heard twice now since the press conference.
It's all lies, except what I tell you.
Of course some guys on Kentucky.scout.com just thought Pitino shot himself in the foot because of his public attack on Sypher and this 6 minute long press conference that there is no way Karen Sypher can get a fair public trial in Louisville, KY......here comes the change in venue.
there will be no good that comes from this for pitino. i know i'm a UK fan, but i said the same thing when billy clyde clowned jeannine edwards on national TV, and this is worse. here's eric crawford's reaction:http://www.courier-journal.com/blog...wford/blog.htmlIn the process, he took what was a story with little to no national interest -- the release of audio of some voice mails he left Sypher, all of which, by the way, confirm his stance that he never pressured or forced her to get an abortion -- and turned it into a story of national interest, of a coach lashing out at the media.
Why is it that the only people who care about this are UK fans? Its like watching a crazy homeless guy screaming at a brick wall and laughing at his own jokes.Comical. Yes. Sad. Yes.
I blame Hitler
On Mythbusters, Kary Byron just said "8.77 inches of penetration" It made me laugh.
I blame Hitler too. But the Hitler comment was in reference to him going crazy like Hitler, not that he was Hitler.
We all know Rommel is to blame.
So good ol' Billy Clyde got arrested for a DUI last night / this morning, god I love this state
Hitler strikes again
BCG actually was just finishing up aborting a baby and decided a DUI would take the focus of aborting babies.
http://blogs.usatoday.com/gameon/20...ion-of-dui.html
I saw that this morning too!!! This time the dickhead isn't getting off so easy.
to make matters worse for him, apparently he and UK were coming close to an out of court settlement on his lawsuit. this doesn't help him. when you make 3 mil two years in a row and expecting a multi million dollar lawsuit and you're high profile, you can afford a damn cab. the best was his golfing excuse at 3 in the morning. so much for getting a good job next year too, all he had to do was lay low
Douglas - This assclown will not ever be coaching at a division 1 college ever again, unless he goes to rehab.
Billy Donovan signs a Nimrod.http://sports.espn.go.com/ncb/news/...tory?id=4419306
The thing is he just needs to shut up."Don't forget that he's the victim here! Yes, the news reporters have pointed out that Pitino has been charged with nothing, while Karen Sypher will go on trial for extortion. (Hopefully! He needs this trial and her craziness is really inconvenient for him.) But that's not what's important here. The economy is. So is Ted Kennedy. And basketball. And recruiting, which is going just fine by the way. Because Rick Pitino is not a liar like the media is. He apologized to his family six years ago! He's a New Yorker! What more do you want?He was so mad he even forgot to work in a 9/11 reference. His lawyers told him to keep quiet—probably because they know that angry, hyper-defensive rants generally don't win you sympathy points—but Rick Pitino doesn't care what lawyers think. He cares about Ted Kennedy. When you're in a scandal, you won't find a finer role model to turn to."http://deadspin.com/5346273/rick-pi...you-lying-liars

Future Rick Pitino Press Conference. It really is hard not to laugh.http://www.sportspickle.com/article...ress-conference

I can't watch video at work, I will when i get home
Colin Cowherd is ripping into Pitino. Basically he is saying that he is used to being able to bully the media about sports and that he is bigger then everybody else.
it's on national websites too, he's gotta realize now he fucked up in having that conference and only made the story bigger and provided more video clips for people to make fun of
people went from feeling sorry for him for being extorted by a crazy bitch (which she is) and generally having people in his corner to being made fun of
good read, jason whitlock's take:http://msn.foxsports.com/cbk/story/...t-a-playa-he-isWhen a playa gets busted, he/she changes the discussion from what he did wrong to something someone else did wrong and is more than likely untrue or exaggerated. A playa creates a false reality and then expects you to hold a debate about the lie he just concocted.Pimpino spent Wednesday night at home debating the irresponsible media rather than his irresponsibility.I spent Wednesday listening to Johnnie Taylor. I suspect Pitino might be listening to my favorite rapper, Tech N9ne's anthem "I'm a Playa."
Colin did go on to say that for the most part outside of Kentucky this is a nonissue.
damn i love this state. Luke Whitehead just got busted with 7 lbs of marijuana. it hasn't made news yet, but his lawyer is friends with the guy that used to play ball at UL in my office and told him about it. college basketball in this state is on a roll right now
if that's true, douglas may be the first person in the history of the site besides cheryl to actually have "insider" info.
apparently wlky reported it so that's why he said something, he was waiting for it to be reported before he said anything, but C-J hasn't picked it up yet, and i don't see it on wlky's website
apparently UK and UL are one some kind of destructive game of one-upmanship
i'll call your pitino press conference with a gillispie DUI.i'll raise you a whitehead marijuana arrest
don't forget Cal saying he was going to punch forde
that was good tooso the skinny on whitehead, the UL guy in our office was on the phone about 2pm with his lawyer buddy, something Webb, as he was driving back from lexignton, and he got a call and said he'd have to call him back. called him back 20 minutes later, and said "well I can tell you what's going to be on the news very soon. 7 lbs. of marijuana, paraphernalia, and guns"
looks like it's been up on WLKY for a few hourshttp://www.wlky.com/news/20586297/detail.html
That's great stuff. My insider stuff dried up with the ole UK basketball admin was re-assigned when BCG came into office.My brother did hire a guy that played for Gillispie at A&M. That was an interesting and insightful conversation.
Douglas said, "college basketball in this state is on a roll right now". That made me picture Whitehead rolling a joint and it made me laugh.
wes, do tell...
Nothing really more than we already know, he is a drunk and a woman chaser. This guy claims he would go out drinking with Billy G all the time after games and practice and what have you. Just enjoyed partying. Not saying he is doing anything more than any other guy, just saying.
Brent--whats your number for this weekend?
I pick it up tomorrow, but Im pretty sure its going to be #813, that's what it said online. Im still kind of shocked with the weather, this is nuts.
just found out about this show. eastbound and down. f-in awesome! audio is nsfw-unless work is ok with referring to mentally challenged kids as mongloid mike and lots of obscenitieshttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bgDaVLCaBzQ

i'm playing golf at covered bridge today so i'll be gone, but are we still doing joe's house tonight for the draft?
I'll be at home if you want to bring a computer over and log in there.
i don't have a laptop
I believe the draft requires you to be at a PC
nevermind then
Something annoying but comical from this morning, I woke up around 6:00 to the sound of random beeping. I investigated and it was a school bus that accidentally drove all the way to the end of the dead end on my street and wsa trying to get the bus turned around by doing a 27 point turn and not hitting anything.
fuck. laptop. i might have an extra laptop, douglas.
So you are bringing an extra laptop for douglas, a mouse for me. Just gather up all your computer stuff and supply the draft. Would MaximumAsp sponsor the draft and supply computers next season?
if i have an extra laptop, it's my gas little one. but it'll work.The problem with us sponsoring it is that we have such bitchy rules on what kind of computer can connect and who. I'm not even sure if we can do the draft here.
If you plan to come to my house this evening for the draft let me know ahead of time. Those attaching to my internet will be pleased to know that my wireless connections name is Tuscan Mule.
i'll be heading over to your place, joe.btw. we are still short one person. Do we go with a bye week or do we have a ghost ship team?
bye week
What time is the draft? I prob won't be able to make it, I have a mandatory Ironman meeting to go to at 7:30.
draft is at 7:00
as quick as our drafts go, we might be done by 7:30. I wonder if the iPhone can do the yahoo draft stuff
Chris is on call so he may or may not be available.
Work has become enjoyable again. I found ESPN radio again by busting out a 1990 Fresh Prince of Bel Air boom box. It required a fancy antenna and tin foul and metal clips to get reception, but it was a success.
Ghost ship!

Unable to access from the iphone, damn it!
phil, if you can bring an extra laptop i'll definitely come
i am worried my other laptop won't run. and my second one is a 9" screen. Fuck fuck fuck.I do have a mouse for joe though
got one, i'll be there
I won't be there for the draft.
Did we move the draft back? It is now saying Saturday at 715???
Who is the new guyfor the team? Is that a ghost team?
So are we doing this tomorrow now?
We needed a 10th team or it wouldn't let us draft. Yahoo freaked and wouldn't let the draft happen. He tried to reset the draft and it wouldn't let it happen. The draft is gonna be Tuesday we think now.
Jerome's son is the 10th team
WTF happened to Saturday?!?!?!
Damn you homos. You changed the draft time to when the Brew at the Zoo is going on tomorrow.All you can drink, all you can eat, and lions! There has to be a good story to come from that.
The ZOO is still on ... my screen is showing Tuesday when ... oh good. Ain't shit happening Tuesday
word
plan is tuesday at 6:30. i'll be at wicks doing the draft for $2 imports. Joe may meet me up there.Sorry about that. Fucking Yahoo.
Philco - If it is alright with everybody else, can we move it back to about 8:15 pm on Tuesday? It will be hard for me to participate in a live draft before 8:00 during the week. If not that's cool to.
LAST PUUPY SOLD! I had the dogs out front while I was washing my truck today and a car randomly drove by and turned around and drove up and asked if he was for sale. It is a cop and his wife and 2 kids that live one street over on Plymouth. The turned down the street because someone was throwing away a couch that they wanted. They had a border collie on their farm in Nelson County and moved here for their son to go to Trinity. Their dog was a farm dog so it couldn't move here so they needed a new one.Between 7 puppies created by a driveway lovefest I think Laura brought in close to $4,000. I can't believe people pay what they do for a dog.
Congrats Joe - Just in time for her to go in heat again.
Oh hell no, not yet. Maybe next time. I'm puppied out.

The tracker hasn't updated him yet.
The pros are already running the marathon. They averaged 24 mph on the ride.
I wonder if Brent was pacing himself on the swim. 30 minutes behind the other guys. Or.... Scott and Rory are Mer-men.Scott is also FLYIN' on that bike. Nearly 20mph over those distances... that's impressive. 17-18mph is hard to maintain even over 15-20 miles.
Brent:THIRD BIKE SEGMENT 67 mi (1:51:25) 16.16 mph Scott was a high school swimmer. i think Brent needs our support. Rory is Brent's friend. Apparently he hurt himself a couple weeks ago and can't run so he is going to walk the marathon.I've calculated that Scott should start running around 2:45 if he keeps his pace up. He didn't actually get in the water till around 7:30. The race started at 7:00. Your time doesn't start till you cross the start. Scott could have started a half hour after brent and they could have been neck and neck getting out of the water.
That's cool. Where is the run?
waterfront park across 2nd street bridge, loop back across the bridge and take 3rd and 4th street to new cut loop back to downtown and go back out 3rd/4th street and back to 4th street live.

Congrats to Scott and Brent for completing the IronMan, again. Simply awesome guys!!!
Need more cowbell.I think this is the first time I have seen the entire skit.http://www.monkeybriefs.com/view/vi...|-SNL_2373.html
here ya go, douglashttp://www.adultsheepfinder.com/
That's hilarious, however, I am sure Douglas will have some fun with that one.
Just for the record, I passed blind guy. Also, did you see the guy pacing blind guy, I mean c'mon, that guy was a stud, he needs another 66 year old dude out there pacing him. Today, Im super sore, walking around like C-3PO.
There was a second blind guy out there as well. He was younger. I think you kicked his ass. I feel lame because I'm sore from tracking the Ironman on my bike, up and back 3rd and 4th street, texting Phil where everyone is. I never saw number 820, Rory.
Those little inspirational yells were very appreciated. It's funny b/c your name is on your bib, people would always say/yell my name but I could always tell by the pitch and tone of the people who yelled my name were someone I knew or not. I didn't even know Rory was running the race till I saw him out on the course. That thing was brutal...I don't see myself doing this again.
Back to the duathalons?
Just shorter tri's...duathlons don't carry the same clout, half the fun of doing a triathlon is telling people you do triathlons :)
I would entertain the idea of a Triathalon Sprint:Swim - 0.6mi, Bike - 12.4mi, Run - 3.1mileI need a goal to try to get back in shape besides run fo rthe hell of it.
Pick one out and let me know, we could probably get Phil on board as well. I would rather do sprints, there at least fun and you know you don't have to hold anything back.
Brent - congrats again buddy, that is pretty badass that you finished....again! Was it better to do this one with the weather being cooler outside or was it getting to the point that it was a little too cool for the swim/bike ride?And in completely non-related news....I was selected to come in for an interview for Sullivan's College of Pharmacy. Just scheduled my interview for Friday, October 2nd at 11:30.
how do the sprint trathalons work on the swim? I saw one that was in a pool. WTF?
I would like to know as well...I am interested.
move the draft to next Friday at 7? Jerome can't make tomorrow and neither can Wes.
fine with me
The 4th is fine with me as of now.
the aye's have it. draft time changed to 7pm.
Are we still in need of an extra FF player? I may have an interested party.
Jerome's son Alan took the roster spot.
If it's in a pool, it's a time trial start where someone enters the pool every 10sec, then u snake, it sucks bc some people don't know what they're doing, I usually just swim the middle lane...usually they only do pool starts when it's around 400m
joe, i still think our event should by the cyclocross. i'm tempted to check this out:http://www.courier-journal.com/arti...isherman+s+Park
Is Jerome's son old enough to understand ff and will he care?
yeah, we can swap out of mini-Jerome for someone that will give a shit. Plus we won't have to worry about being potty mouths
we don't cuss that fucking much do we?
That's bullshit!
Lt. Col. Billy Way with the Oldham County Police Department said some children were throwing sticks at bicyclists near Countryside subdivision on U.S. 42, and later some bicyclists ran over tacks that had been thrown in the road and had to deal with flat tires.
I heard some guy say that to somebody as I passed, saying he had a tac in his tire, what a bunch of little bastards, this is why we should have public floggings
Exactly, just make an example out of the few, and the other file right in line.
So college football actually starts thursday right? Does anybody know who is playing?
Jerome's son Alan would actually be Jerome and Phil managing a ghost team. Alan just had a readily accessible yahoo account.
Well that works for me, and thanks for letting me in on that guys. I just knew I was going to get beat by the 10 year old.
Alan's a 4th grader and he goes to the same school that Joe and Chris went to. I have no doubt he's already heard and used bad language. It wouldn't surprise me if he already knows how to tap a keg. He understands FF, but would probably want to have all Steelers in his starting lineup with Larry Fitzgerald and Michael Bush... like father, like son in many ways.
Thursday: Bosie St. - Oregon
And Boise State probably plays after that game
South Carolina and NC State play at 7 on Thursday.
is it just me or does it seem like wed, douglas and joe's posts are in reverse order?
Good ole Willie Williams back in the news...http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/news;_y...o&type=lgns
I can't wait to watch the Bama vs. VT game and the Okie State vs. Georgia game. UGA (#13) is playing at Okie State (#8), not sure where the Bama game is played.
Any Labor Day weekend plans besides watching football? Friday people can come over for the Fantasy Football draft again if you want. Saturday my plan is UK at noon, Notre Dame at 3:30, UL at 7:30.Next Saturday, the 12th, I am trying to plan my birthday. Basically it looks like watch the ND game while drinking then go eat something kick ass and then watch the USC-OSU game and drink. UL and UK are both off.3:30 PM 23 Notre Dame -Michigan ABC 8:00 PM 4 USC - 6 Ohio State ESPN Anybody else got anything exciting to do that day?It sounds like everyone needs to keep Friday the 18th open for Chris and Joanna's birthday as a warmup for Brock's bachelor party the next weekend. The 19th is the UL-UK game at noon. What a beautiful month.
Touchdown Jesus at 3:30 or you can watch the UGA (#13) visiting Okie State (#8) game at 3:30 on CBS.
i'm down for the some Saturday action. I might even bring some snacks.
I still have your pizza from last friday. Save it for the draft? I think my goal is to sneak in a bike ride or run Saturday morning to not feel completely disgusting. You have hockey Saturday?
no hockey on saturday.
Joe, lets try to ride Saturday since I may not feel like doing anything Sunday. As far as 9/18 goes, I plan on being at the Bambi bar by 6pm and hopefully make it all the way to the PHT eventually. Everyone is welcome meet up with us anywhere along the route. If I can skip out of my afternoon lectures I may start earlier. College football starting, birthdays, bachelor parties...what a great month to be an alcoholic.
Should I just catch the 23 on Broadway and take the bus to Bardstown Road and Taylorsville Rd basically bussing the Bambi Walk in reverse that Friday?
Per colin cowherd on ESPN radio:What happens to all the college coeds and elite college wide receivers?Both the coeds and elite recievers turn 22 and start having to work at it.
Abby and I bought a treadmill and I am starting to run on that thing. It's amazing what happens when you buy good running shoes that fit your frame and running style. Your knees don't hurt.
too late for me, the damage has been done.
i still contend that running barefoot 4 miles a week is key to keeping your knees and hips healthy.
Huge crash in a bike wreckhttp://www.speedgoat.com/blog.asp?p=1919Joe and I got to see some dude bite it right in front of Brent no more than two tenths of a mile into the race. Poor bastard.

I'll be in town for the holiday weekend. Should I bring my bike then?
I plan to ride Saturday sometime between 11 and 1 depending on th outcome of the booze I consume during the fantasy draft.
I need to get a head count together for the bachelor party. Let me know if you are interested in going down to Memphis on Thursday night or Friday?Depending the arrival of people, I am tossing around the idea of "pre-gaming" in Nashville on Thursday night and driving down to Memphis early Friday.
I will put in the email for that Friday off.
I will be sitting this one out, sorry Brock.
My work leave is approved, I'm in.
Brock, Im not going to be able to make to the bachelor party, sorry.
WWE announced during last nights telecast of Monday Night RAW that former "Price is Right" host Bob Barker will be the Guest Host for next week's Monday Night Raw.
So during the Ironman on Sunday Laura was trailering horses to a horse clinic she was riding in. This was on the bike route of the Ironman. My uncle knows this guy that was doing the Ironman and he never saw him reach the run. My uncle called him to see how he did and he never finished. He wrecked his bike on mile 90 and broke his collarbone. He said he wrecked his bike when he clipped a horse trailer. I wonder if there is a connection here.
Damn, that freakin sucks, especially on mile 90, that is right after the second loop...you're on your way home, I remember when I hit mile 90, I had Ozzy Osbourne playing in my head, "Mama, Mama, Im coming home"
Barry - Is this the norm for LSU games? If so, can you get an extra ticket to any home game?
and the link.http://bleacherreport.com/articles/.../page/9#page/41
i'm a bit disturbed that i know this, but that photo of the lsu girls is photoshopped. I believe those two are models that do stuff for Sports By Brooks. One of the message board posters uses that pic as his signature.And even it was real, they'd smell like corn dogs.
i'd avoid the Boise State game. It might induce seizureshttp://www.broncosports.com/ViewArt...CRIBER_CONTENT=
They smell like corn dogs, you smell like booze. Win win.
has anyone seen's david wright's helmet? I think it's awesome
moot point now, but no wes that is not the norm. Louisiana is now # 1 in obesity (take that Mississippi!). Don't get me wrong there are plenty of attractive women on campus...plenty. I have no "in" with any of them. When I think of a Louisiana girl, I think dark tan, black hair not the 2 blondes presented.
I knew it was too good to be true.

Burket - when you are on vacation, do you think you will have time to do all you can eat wings at Hooters?
There is always time for all you can eat wings.
by the way what the hell is wrong with corn dogs? Its meat on a stick! Even better, meat on a stick wrapped in corn bread! If you dip your corn dog in ketchup you've covered all four food groups in one delicious, portable, artery clogging snack. And you can make a shive out of the stick! In short, LSU fans smell like awesome!

Wes, I'll be on vacation 9/18-9/27.

It looks like the candidates will be Joe and Brody.
I am training my liver now. weeknight drinking is awesome!
Chris, don't forget to drag Phil out and pour some booze down his throat before heading out.Both Ty and Chip are coming. Chris and Clay are possibles.At least 3 are coming down from Cincy.Brent, are you still down?
i'm not sure if I can make it thursday, but I'm a definite for Friday and Saturday night.

this is amusing for anyone who saw the pitino interview with cowgill:http://deadspin.com/5351287/rick-pi...od-for-everyone
I read that yesterday on Deadspin. Louisville is classy
A few days ago, someone on ESPN said, "It speaks to his CHARACTER that he is owning up to this publicly." Child please -- "it speaks to his character"? Really? How does laying the Pitino Pepperoni on a post-op tranny speak to his character?
Urinal protocol vulnerability discoveredhttp://www.redditmirror.cc/cache/we...lity/index.html
I learned today when writing to the veteran that apparently it is unprofessional to refer to the penis as "the shaft." However, "the shaft of the penis" is acceptable.
I always knew I'd see the day when Joe would write: the shaft of the penis is acceptable. I just didn't know it would be today!
Sorry Brock, I'm out
Well played Jerome.
So who is in...Chris, me, Brody and Phil?
Douglas - So what do you think of Coach Cal sending President Obama a signed #44 UK jersey?
me no like, he doesn't understand UK's fan base. i understand what he's doing, getting exposure for the university, blah blah blah, but he alienates and pisses off too many people when you mesh politics and sports, especially KY politics and UK sports, two subjects people round these parts are very passionate about. and on top of that, obama's a UNC fan, and UNC fans are no friends of UK fans
Calipari had to take his facebook post announcing it down b/c of a large amount of negative comments against him sending the jersey too, and that's from UK fans that think he can do no wrong right now. i see his logic, black kids he's recruiting see obama in a UK jersey and they think it's cool, giving him buzz on the recruiting trail, but politics by nature are going to piss off half the population whenever you involve them in anything, and for the person with the most high profile job in the state to involve them in the state's most sacred institution, basketball, wasn't smart.
Phil, that was fucking genius
I think a good TV show would be called Nerdy Jobs with Danica Keller. You put it on the Discover Channel and she does all these nerdy jobs. Like she goes and sees how they do the timings for the stop lights, or she goes and checks out the chemists that come up with new Jelly Belly flavors.
I think Kari Byron would be a better host.
shit. meant Danica Mckellar. How could you need have her host Nerdy Jobs, though?From wikipedia: "Danica Mae McKellar is an American actress, mathematics author and education advocate. She is best known for her role as Winnie Cooper in the television show The Wonder Years, and now as author of the two New York Times bestsellers, Math Doesn't Suck, and Kiss My Math, which encourage middle-school girls to learn math. And she's banging."
Leaving for Bearnos a little early today to make sure we get a table, come join if you're not doing anything
I vote Danica McKellar. She has a theorum.
Courtesy of Barstool Sports:"So DJ Am’s funeral was yesterday. Obviously very sad anytime somebody young dies. Anyway I couldn’t help but notice what some people were wearing at the funeral. Jeans? Really? And what’s up with Travis Barker’s Zoot Suit? Dude you’re not at a club in Vegas. Guy just died here. So for all those people planning on coming to my funeral when I die, I just wanted to let people know we’ll be enforcing a strict dress code. In other words you’re not getting in without a dark suit."With the activities of this month I figured I might die soon so everyone if I do pass...Suit up! As for me, I plan to go out rocking a hoodie and some shorts.
And Joe's heart.
So apparently Runpee.com is a Jordan Palmer venture.Well done Bengals!
Hey the Bengals signed Ventrell Jenkins, the big d-lineman that gave the stiff arm heard round the world to the E. Carolina QB. I watched him get a sack last night.
So is the Oregon RB going to get to play again after that post game punch? Who is the bigger douche, the Boise guy for saying something and bumping into him or the Oregon guy for the sportsmanship? I heard an interview with the RB from Oregon and his a tard. I don't know how he got into college.
After watching the South Carolina-NC State game last night I am ashamed those assclowns beat us last night. South Carolina looked terrible on offense. In fact, here is the best lines that describe the game. "College football got kicked into high gear tonight and Stephen Garcia made Mike Hartline look like a clear-cut choice for Third Team All-SEC. The guy from NC State, though, made them both look like Heisman winners. What a crapfest."
I was highly disappointed by college football all together last night.
I didn't see much of the Boise St. - Oregon game...how was that one?
Oregon had 14 yards of offense in the first half and then after the game a boise player got sucker punched and the punchee went after the fans in the stands and had to be restrained.
Holy shit, how did I miss that? Time to find some video.
yeah, that oregon rb won't the the light of a football field again this year. if he had gone and pushed him or something, that's one thing, but the dude was walking away and wasn't even looking, a complete sucker punch. so he's the bigger douche
Actually here is how it all went down, forward to 2:30. Yeah it was a sucker punch, but what do you think is gonna happen when you taunt a football player with behavior issues. Apparently in the team meeting, they didn't discuss not to piss off Blount.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KvqNHXq0WTM
I'm not sure if I would go with full tard on Blount. I definitely see special needs and a helmet for walking the campus. Then again, he probably is tard strong. The only thing missing is an affinity for Scooby Doo and a gummy bear addiction.
I am kind of disappointed, I was hoping for something similar to the USC-Clemson brawl of 2004. Now that was a melee.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bDzl1dJthYo
football is taunting non-stop , i guarantee the white boy just said something that made him look/feel stupid and he couldn't handle it
Blount the RB had been trash talking all week and then laid a turd on the field and his manhood was at stake so he had to do something to feel like a man again. Hence the sucker punch.
The white boy was being a dick, his coach realized it and tried to prevent it.....the problem is when you run your mouth just understand that your ass is going to get hit.And here is the Egg Bowl fight of 2006, keep in mind this took place before the game even started.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OEdp...feature=relatedI bet Petrino is calling up the Blount kid as we speak, telling him he is the kind of player he likes.
Jerome - that was priceless.
Of course Blount was suspended on the first day of practice for behavior issues...I wonder why.
I'm sure the white boy said something to deserve it, but blount is an ass clown that was willing to waste his season by actually doing it.
Joe that is how I see it.
I am sure when we play those Miami of Ohio thugs something similar will happen in our game on Saturday.
If it was a conference game and white boy was a bench player he would be a hero getting one of the best players on a good team in your conference suspended.
Exactly. He would have been given the game ball afterwards and carried off the field Rudyesque. Okay, maybe not.
you know the white boy got ass last night though, sympathy ass is great
Hout? That fucker is a bitch and I bet he gets suspended too. Just as much of a punk as Blout. Fucker started the whole thing running his white trash mouth after a game like a little bitch. Blout's an idiot for punching the dude, but Hout's the one that acted like the faggot.
I just saw the punch, I haven't seen everything leading up to it, and I can't watch video at work. all i know is it takes one splendidly stupid fucker to sucker punch someone with no helmet on on national TV. yeah, the white boy might've been running his mouth, and yeah, he might be a huge fag, but literally everyone on a football field runs their mouth, defensive lines taunt quarterbacks endlessly on every play, DB's taunt receivers non-stop trying to get them off their game, it's part of football
Well, i watched it last night so my memory could be fuzzy. All I know is that whatever he said it was enough that a coach ran after him and grabbed him and started yelling prior to the punch.You got a backup DE that probably barely got in the game (I don't remember him doing anything) running his mouth saying something that was enough for the coaches to freak. And based on what I know about the Boise State people you gotta expect it was something amazingly racist.In my book you 1) don't run your mouth after a game 2) you certainly don't run your mouth if you didn't play and 3) you certainly don't say something so bad that the coaches freak out. Everyone of us would have probably clocked that dude if he said what he said to Blount. I doubt very few of us would have said what Hout did.Boise State already has a terrible image problem. If it comes out what the guy said was racist, you gotta wonder if that's gonna cost them some votes towards the end of the season when they are trying to sneak into a BCS bowl game. Oregon will survive. Blount will probably be suspended some meaningless game and be back.
ha, loaded up deadspin. Looks like I'm not alone in my view of HoutByron Hout Got What He Deservedhttp://deadspin.com/5352594/byron-h...hat-he-deserved"Is LeGarrette Blount a crazy hothead who deserves to be suspended? Absolutely. But isn't part of you a little bit pleased that he wiped that fucking smirk off Byron Hout's face?"
Awesome Peter Forseberg tribute video.How could you watch this and not like hockey afterwards?http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J6at...vsfY&fmt=22
Kirk Herbstreit is calling for both of them to be kicked off their respective teams. Colin Cowherd said kick blount out of school and no punishment to Boise dude. Colin's view was everyone runs their mouth and it isn't how you act it is how you react and Blount reacted bad.
funny post i saw on the oregon site about Blunt. It's becoming more and more apparently what was said. Here was one of the replies:Which N word was it?No heart?No hustle?No game?
The white trash dude tounted Blount before he got punched. He came from across the field hit Blount on the shoulder to make sure he got his attention and talked some trash. White trash's coach grabs him to pull him away and then Blount gives him a right cross to the chin sending white trash to the ground. Blount backs up hopping ready to throw down. 6 smurfs where around when Blount knocked white trash ass clown down....and they did nothing but yell.If you like watching punks get punched, it was quite poetic.
* were
Phil - you are right, Boise State should move to the backwoods of Alabama. They are that racist.Hell even the runningback that beat Oklahoma for them, proposed to his white girlfriend and they were calling for his head.
Two fucktards being fucktards.
that's the best summary
Anyone got plans tonight for the fantasy draft?
the only reason to look at twitter, shitmydadsays.shitmydadsays: "I'm having a Makers Mark, you want one? What? 7up? I ain't mixing fucking makers with 7up. Might as well put a lil' fucking umbrella in it"http://twitter.com/shitmydadsays/st...uses/3760011663
joe, heading to your place. i'm gonna try and get there earlier than last time though.
Rock on.
Got Tulsa vs Tulane to look forward to after the draft too.
I either need to make a beer run or a coke run. All I got is bourbon. I could be sophisticated and drink Old Forester on the rocks. When I think fantasy football draft I think cheap beer though. I still got that Digourno pizza from last week that I will throw in.
Preview for the Louisville game on the Card Chronicle (in it's entirety):Quincy 26, Indiana State 20 (OT)Southeast Missouri State 72, Quincy 3
The Tulsa game allows us to see the program that Kragthorpe built.
Wes, did you mention something about Miami of Ohio being thugs?I don't really think "Redhawks" and "thug" go together. I can see "douchebags" and "Redhawks," but thats as far as I go.Miami is ranked dead last in FBS division by the computers. Spreading such propaganda is just kicking a man while he's down.I'll have to give it to UK, they at least played an FBS school (the worst one) instead of mighty Indiana State, which is probably the worst FCS school.
Ben Rothlesburger and Wally Szerbiak are two of the biggest thugs I can think of. Their street cred is through the roof.
Wes-a coworker and I were out to lunch, and about 20 Japanese school girls came in. Giggidy
hey joe, what's the beer situation
i think my fridge is empty. My plan was to run out and pick some up somewhere.
Does this mean I can't leave Nashville until after the draft? ROAR!
I just took Kenzie running up at Brown Park and I let him play in the water in the creek and he came out with a fucking 2.5 foot snake in his mout that was still alive and very unhappy. Scared the shit out of me.
Just like Indiana Jones.
interesting article on lactic acidhttp://www.nytimes.com/2006/05/16/h...16run.html?_r=1

My neighborhood is having a yard sale. One neighbor has a sign that says ask about trains and guns. Classy.
fuck, i totally forgot about the draft last night, at least auto pick is smart enough to get adrian peterson with the first pick
an army of amish people just raided the martinez yard sale. I wonder if they went down the street and bought guns.

7:30
For all of you basketball junkies out there, 2011 point guard recruit Marquis Teague is currently on an unofficial visit to Louisville. Teague will be taking in the Cards’ game opener against Indiana State. No word on whether or not he will also leave midway through the third quarter like everyone else.
we hired his coach and it is the wake forest teagues bro.
so did anybody from louisville or kentucky not get cut yesterday?
Others besides brohm with local connections who were cut: Panthers quarterback Hunter Cantwell (UofL); Giants quarterback Andre' Woodson (North Hardin High School/University of Kentucky); Buccaneers wide receivers Mario Urrutia (Fern Creek/UofL) and Patrick Carter (UofL); Saints defensive tackle Earl Heyman (Ballard/UofL); Bears cornerback Woodny Turenne (UofL); Rams offensive tackle Renardo Foster (UofL); Bengals defensive lineman Ventrell Jenkins (UK); Browns offensive linemen Kurt Quarterman (UofL) and Isaac Sowells (Doss/Indiana University); Saints wide receiver Courtney Roby (IU); Jaguars safety Marlon McCree (UK); Jaguars fullback Brock Bolen (UofL); Jaguars linebacker Johnny Williams (UK); Patriots defensive back Herana-Daze Jones (Iroquois/IU); Colts defensive tackle Adrian Grady (UofL); Vikings defensive end Otis Grigsby (UK); and Raiders kick returner Justin Miller (Owensboro High).
someone on deadspin posted this about Merriman:"Does choking Tila Tequila count towards the community service he'll have to serve?"Btw, Brohm is back with the Packers on the practice squad I believe
pretty pissed off folks down here on the bayou
they pissed off about the game? Jake Locker is the man. He's the straight man's Tim Tebow. They should be more pissed off that they smell like corn dogs and know nothing about football outside of the SEC than they are about the performance on the field.Only reason UW was shitty last year was because Locker was hurt. Highlights from his freshman year:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BMfiq9CXss8
Barry - why are the bayou fans pissed? Didn't LSU win? I didn't watch the game at all so if you care to fill me in I'd appreciate it.
best walkoff homerun celebration ever:http://mlb.mlb.com/media/video.jsp?...200909066511913
Woodson signed by the Skins to the practice squad.
thanks phil, i too watched jake locker in 07 and was thoroughly impressed. There are a lot of lsu fans that don't follow anything other than the sec, but I am not one of them. And many fans were very familiar with locker because they scout before games. Defense Bad Sure locker can play but for fuck's sake 478 yds of total offense (more than we gave up in any one game all last year)! 11 for 19 3rd down conversions! 36:52 time of possessionChris Hawkins (CB) could not shed a block the whole night and that cost us on some screens and sweeps.Chad Jones and Brandon Taylor (FS and SS respectively) were out of position a lot and mediocre at best.No pressure from the d-line (1 sack all night-yes I am aware that locker is fast-watch how much time he has)Defense GoodPatrick Peterson (CB -sophomore) should be an All American before he graduates. Looked really good last year, but the kid was everywhere Saturday (9 tackles, 1 forced fumble, 2 PBU).Linebackers played solidforced 2 turnoversOffense BadVanilla play calling (probably to protect Jefferson)O-line could not get a push until late 3rd quarter-Charles Scott ineffective (12 rushes 52 yds but first carry went for 21)Lafell had four passes thrown his wayNo ShepardOffense GoodNo interceptionsToliver looked good Keiland Williams played well in second half (and the line got a push)General feel is if UW doesn't turn the ball over twice (one run back for a td and the other on our 5 yd line) and have 11 penalties for 83 yds, we lose that game.
I do think some people down here are overreacting, but it wasn't pretty. I said before the season started that I thought we would be much better but still might lose 5 games (Gators at home, Ole Miss and Bama on the road are losses, but we typically lose a game or 2 we shouldn't and I'm counting Georgia on the road and a third straight loss to the razorbacks as possible games to lose). Next year we should be nasty and we'll have a little better schedule.
Brock is loving this halftime score in the Cincy game.
Barry - these are all things that Les will correct.
I loved the halftime score almost as much as the final score.Is it scary that UC pounded Rutgers worse on the road than UofL did Indy State at home?Former Notre Dame QB Demetrius Jones gets 2 sacks and an INT. Brian Kelly is a football genius. Conner Barwin goes from TE to defensive player of the year in the Big East last year, now Jones.YEEE-HAWW!
i have faith in lesticles
I have faith that UofL is going to make me cry this year.
I was listening to the radio on my drive in and heard they had a Bigfoot sighting in Fairdale this past weekend. Can't wait to find those photos.And why is it that all the pictures and videos of big foot are grainy? I mean c'mon my nephew even has a digital camera.
....and here is the video on cnn.comhttp://www.cnn.com/video/#/video/us...ky.bigfoot.wave

Looks like my league match up (I humped Douglas vs. Ice the Kicker) is the closest for the week. We are within 1 point of each other on the projection.I think next year I might actually draft a receiver instead of load up on runningbacks.How I ended up with Jones-Drew, Brandon Jacobs, Marion Barber and Carnell Williams along with two shitty receivers in Devin Hester and Santana Moss....I'll never know.

my advice for vegas is always the same, it's okay to piss and puke in the VIP section of a club, but never fall asleep there, that's what gets you kicked out
and by kicked out, i don't mean they politely ask you to leave, i mean they pick you up and literally throw you out the door in front of everyone waiting in line

hey joe, next time you gotta buy some tires try some of these suckershttp://www.nashbar.com/bikes/Produc...29_10000_201536i havent had a flat tire in over a year. thats over 45 minutes worth of bike riding without a flat!
I think what happened was I ran over something and couldn't find the hole or what caused the flat and then I when out and road again on a new tube and got a flat and found a piece of metal in my tire. I bet it cuased both flats.

I say why. She says because it is the most magical place on earth. I ask "is he going to propose to you when Jaws pops out of the water?" she stares at me blankly. Wasted gem.
i've smoked weed at disneyworld, it was magical
Joe, I'm proud of the reference, considering you would have been about 11 when that movie came out.
damn it, i can't get monopoly at work. it doesn't go thru my work filter b/c it's a game. so in summary, i can't check my personal email, I can't play a game, but i can come to nattysci and talk about sheep fucking to my heart's content

The Return Of The Jamboroohttp://deadspin.com/5356027/love-an...ne=true&s=xI almost feel like eating a bunch of taco bell and white castle, just so I can take a shit worthy of having this article as reading material.
my favorite line of the article:But every issue of SI I get in the mail now includes a cardboard insert for Camel Snus, which has to be the gayest tobacco product ever introduced to the American marketplace. This is the dipping equivalent of Zima. You may as well fellate a roll of Breath Savers in public. Buy real cigarettes, kids. That's how cool people do it.
my monopoly empire is going slow. it's so slow i click something, and go do work for 5 minutes and come back.But right now I own Wentworth, Aubert, Cherry Ln and Garden Drive. Built a house on Wentworth and then the game gave me a school to build that I plopped down on Cherry (SHA). The empire begins
I just got on MCS
And then it crashed. I blame microsoft.
it's slow as balls.so the school I built prevents other players from touching that street. Naturally I built it on my smallest street. God damn it.But I built a couple of high rises on that mofo to keep the income trickling in in a safe manner.
Phil - did you create an account?If so, how do you do it?I saw the sign in box but looks like you have to be registered.
once I clicked on something to buy a street it told me to sign up then and there.you just gotta give it a username, password and e-mail address to register. pretty straight forward once you get past their terrible performance problems.
Okay I am in.My name is Big Worm (original I know) and I just bought Willow Forest Drive and Cherry Forest Circle
i think property is the way to go. we'll see i guess
Are you building shit on your property? how did you get your bonus?
it's random. i've gotten three cards so far. once when i bought a building, the other two after buying streets.Once I got the school which gave the street immunity from other players I built the two largest buildings I could on it to gain more rent.
how much money are you sitting at right now?
$700,000
damn, I am down to 158K
i've been buying some pretty small streets. most expensive one i've grabbed so far was $500,000.
I own 6 streets and built 5 buildings.
Looks like my biggest producer is my street (Willow Forest Drive) and it is valued at about 1.5M
living the dream out in willow forest drive.
Just living the dream.
Whenever you get a chance card or a building bonus or something how does it notify you?
big ass pop up. can't miss it
I wanted to buy Dubai, especially the palm tree islands....but figured that was #1 on people's list to buy
I *think* the only way to lose money is if people find you and fuck with you. You probably want to head to hillbillie, ky and start buying up some of those streets and fill them with big ass buildings and crank in the rent
Yeah good point.
I built me a stadium right next to our neighborhood retention pond.Take that three rivers!
Make sure you put down your bonus buildings when you can. I just checked out the leader board and the local guy is going to be pissed He owns Fairdale Road and some guy build a hazard on his road so he won't earn his 1.5M rent income.
what's the stadium bonus building get you?
Just protects the street from hazards
word. i added you in the game as a friend. my username is enkafan
btw, if anyone is looking for an awesome puzzle game, braid is only $5 this weekend. I'd pay upwards of $40 for it
i wonder if your fuck you cards can be played anywhere, or just to someone near by
This reminds me of online RISK.
I'm in! The Graymoor-Devondale Empire begins. I'll start eating up properties in Nashville soon.
I am in NE Jefferson Co.
Phil - how long have you been playing this for?
Is anybody Colin Obrien on monopoly? Cause they just bought West Port Road and I am thinking of hitting them with a hazard.
Fucking Trinity cocksucker cost me 3 fucking points.
I was tempted to by Westport, but that's a lot.
http://www.mcitystreets.info/
anthony allen is killing it for GT. I think I may root for those guys this year. Fun team to watch
I was wondering if that was the same Anthony Allen that played at UofL.And my kicker finally got me 3.
i have enough road to start building some property, so i did a little math on the rent:Cents on the dollarGreen House - .24 per dollarCity Centre Cottage - .24 per dollarCane Top Multiple - .2 per dollar The Sentinel - .2 per dollarHigh Reach - .21 per dollarNova - .21 per dollarPolyhedron - .21 per dollarGrid - .22 per dollarFour Sided Fortress - .2 per dollarLooks like a road gives you .1 per dollar
man, i could see the white boy overbite from here on Parker as he was 5 yards short on that "bullet" pass on 4th and 10
the problem with my math is that obviously you need road to buy the land, so it's not a no brainer. just trying to figure out the best way to make money now with my limited funds
I've also noticed that the same structures give you different rent rates depending on what street they are on. Also, if you have several streets near each other, your overall value increases.
I'm trying to come up with a way to make some extra cash in between paydays.
ah, my math work was for naught. NAUGHT I SAY!
damn, sure enough. i bought the masonic homes up. fucking place is a gold mine compared to the shit hole property on my other roads
Do not sell your property or buildings. You only get cents on the dollar for it. Kinda like mortgaging in the real game.
i wonder how often they pay ya. 6 hours after signing up I already got paid once. I'd hate to have to spend all day at work not able to do anything
a tie to start the season would make me laugh.shitty kick though
I think they pay everyone at the same time every day, so you will probably have to wait to this time tomorrow for another payday. Just need to find a loophole for some extra money. My lust for conquering the East End in insatiable.
FUMBLE!!! Fuck your face Ward!
holy shit
Dude, Nashville just roared!
i bet everyone gets paid at midnight GMT
Brock are you building in Nashville or Louisville?I think I figured out a decent idea. If you can buy a really long street and just continue to build shitty small houses on it and protect it with a building bonus you can have a pretty nice income generator.I just bought LaGrange Road for $1M, and the houses were costing $50K and producing $50K of income, the residential center was $75K and $75K so you were getting a 1:1 return on your investment. Not bad.
it seems to easy to protect a street with one building though. brock, did you get a special building?i mean, a longer street generates more money per building. and it only takes one special building to protect said street. not a lot of reason to buy anything but really long streets if the special buildings come as often as they seem to pop up.
come on...just five more yards, ward
I am so pissed, RB missed 1 FG, another got blocked, and in the first QTR Collins took a fucking sack that got me out of FG range.
I'm building in both Louisville and Nashville. I have 1 special building on a long street in Louisville.
what street? i want to add you to my friend's list.
hooray! that was worth seven points. nice catch, semi-blanco nino
once you get the major money make street going you are in business. the masonic homes is my big daddy right now, but its only a $800,000 street.
aaaaaaaaaaand this...is 60 minutes
All I know is Willie Parker hasn't done shit all game.
I own Graymoor Rd, Girard Drive, and Calimar Lane
Doc Brock, you've been friended.
i hate my work filter, i wanna play
I tried logging in last night at home but that page was running way to slow to get on.
MCS is painfully slow, almost not even worth it.
you know, i was thinking that if that thing wasn't so slow it'd almost have lost it's charm. There's maybe what, 3 minutes worth of shit you could possibly do if it was running quick?But instead every click and move is coldly calculate because it'll take fucking 4 minutes to load. Why this appeals to my ADD rattled brain I have no idea.
I never got past the loading screen.Someone just questioned peoples strecthing of the dress code at work and said don't dress for the job you have, dress for the job you want bascially meaning we are sloppy and do the bare minimum. This chick responded with superb idea I'm showing up to work on Monday in a tutu and a tiara. I chuckled.
Sounds to me like they are daring you to grow a 70's porn stache.
Phil this is what you said: "you know, i was thinking that if that thing wasn't so slow it'd almost have lost it's charm. There's maybe what, 3 minutes worth of shit you could possibly do if it was running quick?But instead every click and move is coldly calculate because it'll take fucking 4 minutes to load.Why this appeals to my ADD rattled brain I have no idea."This is what I heard: Brian Spillner: You should be going to MIT or something.Philco: Yeah, right. No, I got that.... What's it called? That attention disorder.Brian Spillner: ADD?YPhico: Yes, that shit. Yeah. You know, I was good in algebra|and like math and shit. Everything else I failed. |Dropped out of school. I don't know. It's just something about MCS......that calms me down, you know.
Probably because I was watching Tokyo Drift inbetween football commercials.
Anybody have thoughts on office collections of money for people? We had a collection today for money for a person having a baby.
i would have thrown a condom into the collection bowl.not really though
I'm sick of signing cards and people soliciting money. I hate signing cards for peoples retirements and such and writing phony best wishes for people I have never even spoken to.
you did read the "Fuck Your Stupid Life Event" article on deadspin, right?http://deadspin.com/5309206/f-k-you...-to-gift-giving
That is an older article isn't it? I think I did. I don't remember much about it.
yeah, it's like two months old. makes me laugh though
Anything going on tonight or interested in doing anything tonight? My birthday is tomorrow. If you are interested in something tonight and/or tomorrow let me know. I might come up with something brilliant.
i'm interested, let me know what you get into, no kiddo this weekend, plus sarah has to go to lexington for a seminar all day tomorrow so she's just going to bed early
Dude, I freaking hate the collection pools. It's all about babies and weddings, neither of which I have any interest in becoming a part of yet I have to donate whatever everybody else does or risk looking like an even bigger jerk. The other day, I put my foot down, people were collecting money for an "emergency fund" for a coworker that was moving to San Francisco. Granted I like the girl a lot and understand that it can be hard to move, but c'mon, she has parents, her dad is retired at 55 and her stepmom is a doctor. Shes not going to be prostituting herself for next month's rent. So I didn't donate. Keeping with the rant, my boss personally collected money for a fundraiser and stated the recommended donation was $5, she air quoted recommended. I thought that was a bit inappropriate.
more than a bit, pretty fucking rude actually. and if you protest, the response is it's "only" 5 dollars, which completely negates the point, if it's five dollars here, then it's five dollars next week for someone else, and five more for someone's birthday next week, and so on
i can't get too drunk tonight, but i'd be up for something.let me know. and lynnie too
Why can't you get too drunk tonight? Can you tomorrow? Is it because of hockey tomorrow?
we're having a surprise party for sarah's friend liz tonight, she's moving to columbus tomorrow, that's at like 6:30, mainly her family and shit, but i'm free after that
i just can't get hammered. i gotta head into work in the morning because i got a shit ton of stuff to get done by monday. and with hockey also on sunday along with football i doubt i'll get anything done then
Hockey on Sunday? Phil remember the redzone dude.
oh i'll be at your place right up until i have to leave for hockey. i have to leave at 5:30ish to get there in time for my game this week.
looks like monopoly street is gonna reset next week. damnhttp://blog.monopolycitystreets.com...g-question.html
I might be up for some shennanigans tomorrow.
And I meant general tomfoolery, not the bar.
Drinking in Hilton Head on Vanderbilt's dime. Priceless.
a birthday haikustupid stupid metoo much i drink birthday evehappy birthday me
ditto. haven't been this bad in a long time. sarah was not happy to find me still passed out in the bathroom when she woke up this morning to take a shower
woke up on the couch.how was brendans?
I say cut through the bull shit and go ahead line up Florida and USC and have the championship game.
here's the "retired" pic i was talking about drunkenly last nighthttp://imgur.com/1XkUn.jpg
E. Illinois - 31Indiana St - 0E. Illinois held Indiana State to 95 total yards.
brendan's was an extra bar we probably shouldnt've gone too, although we did make the bouncer let us in for free
i believe the team cinci put 70 up against beat Quincy 70-3. Quincy, of course, beat ISUSigh
.... it's gonna be ugly.
leaving texas out of the converstaion eh adrian?
I say UT and UF.
Barry - I think Adrian just wants to watch Florida beat USC.
Fucking McNabb broke his ribs today.
texas won't win the Big 12
i too would like to see usc go down to an sec team. i don't see a whole lot in texas' way.
so this is lauren talking about bmac on their wedding website:When I met Brian, I was immediately drawn to his gentle yet inquisitive personality. I can't help but to keep picturing him saying "You like that shit?"
I got that email about the wedding site. I haven't read it yet. I think I might catch you in football tonight Douglas. All I need is Pivers to outscore vincent Jackson by 11.
you might indeed, i've actually got rivers in another league with money on the line, so all in all, if he does well i'm not sweating it a bit. i'm just pissed b/c we'll both score more points tonight so no matter the outcome, you and i should be the two top scorers, and one of us has to lose. it's definitely fantasy football time again
my #3 QB was on the bench in Hasselback who got me 27 points.
All was good in my game until Jennings caught that last TD pass. I had a 30 point lead, but this guy has two going tonight and one of them is T.O. Needless to say, I am chalking this one up as a loss.
I want to see week 3 eagles with Vick at QB starting.
Looks like I have to put Favre into my starting rotation.
Brees and Peterson put up some big numbers in our league yesterday.
and fucking romo
Romo had 40, Peterson 47.5 and Brees 56 points.
That Vick pick in the last round might end up paying off.
Maybe. Of course he didn't do shit in the pre-season games.
I'm pleased to see that I not only survived the weekend, but Pee Wee Reese trived under my hungover / hammered regime.
huh?
i apparently played monopoly street in a very drunk stage on friday night and sunday morning.
gotcha
this was a pretty awesome shot by Federer against Djokovichttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R1dvVQbBt7QI think I know who Federer learned it from though...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sTxYVgCNz3M
Apparently they are shutting down and resetting the Monopoly game in a few days anyway, so the Pee Wee Reese Ave empire is sort of futile anyway.Although, that's not stopping me from conquering everything east of I-264 between 42 and La Grange. I do enjoy bulldozing opponents.After the reset, we might have to team up to make any real progress in the game. You just can't do too much per round.
The Pee Wee Reese empire taught me some things though. It seems getting the long street is still key. But don't build anything of value on it until you can get a card to protect yourself. I see a lot of people buying long streets and then using the rest of their money on a big ass tower.I bought that place and apparently my drunken self just started plopping down tiny houses. Genius. You only get the chance cards if you do something. You need the chance cards to get the park or whatever to protect your future cash cow. So keep plopping down the tiny houses until you can protect the street. Then you can go back in and fill it with high profit buildings. Once you get the cash rolling in from that I think I'll go to operation lots of little streets. I think I might try to buy up every street in Hazard County.
It looks like UK is gonna open at a 11pt favorite. If I could brings myself to bet against the cards I'd put upwards of $1000 on that game.
i'm assuming on the over?
I really wish this was the weekend Michelle was going out of town. As it is, I hear how much UofL sucks at least once a day. Michelle tends to stay away from me if I'm drinking. Therefore, I should probably get hammered this weekend then.Just kidding, baby!
I'd bet the house on UK, obviously
Where were you when the Death Star fell?http://www.collegehumor.com/video:1920944
Phil you are correct. You can get the long street for $1M and build some smaller houses to generate income...and notice it is a 1 for 1 cost:reward on that million dollar street.
Brock - are you bulldozing my shit down?
No. I know you own LaGrange, so I'm not bothering it.
so no one has fucked with me yet. what happens if someone bulldozes a building? You just gotta rebuild it?
Have you all figured out the logic for how many things you have to do to get a Chance card?I've also seen the strategy of buying medium size streets and just completely filling them with houses. You can't build a hazard on a full street.Yeah, if they bulldoze it, its gone. Its a way to break into protected streets.
ah, i thought protected streets were safe from bulldozing
I think protected streets are safe.
I don't know about that since I've bulldozed schools and parks. That just sounds bad.
damn, maybe I'll need multiple special buildings per million dollar road. Someone would have to be hard pressed to take that mofo out I'd think.
Just when I thought da bears would win the stupidest play of the day that caused the loss, the bills take the field.
sigh
at least bush is kicking ass and taking names
And Patrick Swayze is dead.http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,550186,00.html
the difference between listening to john gruden and jaws call a game vs Mike and Mike call a game is the same as jerking off to the unrated Wild Things in HD and jerking off to fat people fucking on a 56k modem.God damn it these people are shitty.
i mean you are download fatty porn via a 56k modem. not that fat people some how doing it on top of a modem. i dont believe the pci specs would support that kind of weight or trust.
brent just needs 5 yds from LdT to win his fantasy matchup. Either that or another big raiders drive.
ouch. or if the chargers get an INT on the last play he'll lose on a meaningless play
So much for Douglas and Joe being high scorers.
Who won between us? It was looking bad at the half for both of us.
1 TD pass by Rivers to your guy, I'm guessin gI lost.
Great comment about the Chargers/Raiders game:I heard merriman was trying to sack russell because he was inebriated and didn't want him to drive.
i checked this morning before work but it wasn't updated yet, and my stupid work filter won't let me check yahoo fantasy sports, although i can check fox fantasy sports, so that makes sense. but i don't know who won. i'm guessing you're the high scorer for the week brock?
Brock will lose to me. It is inevitable.
Phil and Brent put up some ridiculous numbers.
Comedy Central is running the Kanye West Fish Sticks episode tonight for two straight hours.
fish dicks, haha
I AIN'T NO GAY FISH!
Losing by two points in FF is murder, you keep looking at all the ways you could have made up two measly points...uggh

Brent, did you stay up late enough to see your demise?
No, I went to bed at halftime, woke up, immediately checked the internet, then sat there for a few seconds disgusted thinking about the what ifs.
Deadspin asks the same question brent asked me: Is Dick Jauron dying?http://deadspin.com/5360027/is-dick-jauron-dyingI call this disease "dick jaurodrice"
fuck. "dick jaurondice"
for those too lazy to read the deadspin article, here's the reader e-mail about Cutler:I was caughtIn the middle of a railroad track (CUTLER!)I looked 'round,And I knew there was no turning back (CUTLER!)My mind racedAnd I thought what could I do? (CUTLER!)And I knewI'd be no help... no help to you! (CUTLER!)Blown expectations,Beatin' in my heartThe Pack secondaryTore me apartYou've been...CUTLERFUCKED!so, that reminds me. My buddy Jen told me about the Thunderstruck drinking game. You go around in a circle taking turns drinking. The person who is drinking switches every time they say "thunder". The person who gets stuck with the guitar solo is the one who is screwed.
Barry - Here is some interesting news I found out today. RB Storm Johnson is visiting UK when we host UofL on Saturday.Good lord, I wish he'd come to UK.
i saw that, great game to come to, now the game's super important
The crowd will be amazing that is for sure.
Wasted almost oppurtunity of the dayThe professor I share office space with at Bellarmine was listening to barry manilow's "Mandy". We were talking about it, and she said "I can't believe it was about a dog" The first thought that popped into my head was "Shut up about the dog, okay?" Fortunately I asked if she had seen Can't Hardly Wait, which she hadn't, so I didn't make an ass out of myself.
Jay - Nice one...I would have followed it up with saying, "They say 92 percent of the honeys at UCLA are sexually active. 92 of the women in Los Angeles at UCLA walking around going, 'Class... or sex? What shall I do?' 92 percent, yo!
Lynnie - When do you two close on your house and when do you move in? If you guys need help moving just let me know.
Lynnie-Thanks. What wes said, too.
I have to give a presentation to the lab today on MSDS's and PPE. I'm not looking forward to it.
Jay - any speech just needs 3 things.1) Intro2) Body 3) Conclusionor1) What are you going to say2) say it3) re-state in conclusion
I think Jay is more concerned about the fact he has to read essentially a VCR manual to the class. If it was me, I would probably fall asleep giving the presentation.
Oh I thought he was more worried about actually giving a presentation. I've always disliked public speaking.And I agree, when MCS gets reset...we should totally dominate those other bitches in our city yo!!!
Today at work is not soliciting money or signing a card but it is cake and punch so we can give the pregopotamus her card and money. I HATE THIS SHIT!
I heard this on Dan Patrick and I hear Phil saying this sometime. In high school my 40 time was the same as my GPA.
i wish my 40 time was a 2.4
Wes-I'm not a great speaker, but I have been teaching for several years, which does help. Also, I flew through it in 10 minutes. At one point, I told the audience that we are all screwed because our safety showers don't have drains.
There it was. Just hit up for a UL or UK gift set raffle, dollar a chance. I claimed not to carry cash so leave me alone.
i just bought 191st Tank Battalion Rd on Monopoly. Fuckin' a

Fantasy football pick ups and trades after week one per Colin Cowherd show in the line of top 5 Patrick Swayze moments:5) Point Break – always there for you drunk at 3 AM like David Garrard...is David Garrard a better name then Jonny Utah?4) Ghost – soft and will always make you cry like Nate Burelson 3) Roadhouse – Fast and strong and guys like him like Chris Johnson2) Chippendale’s skit – Gotta fill a last spot on your fantasy team choose between Justin Gage and Louis Murphy1) Dirt Dancing – Nobody puts baby in a corner and nobody puts Tom Brady in a corner…one of the cheesiest lines in a movie and Tom Brady is cheesy
Is it wrong to take someone elses newpaper to the shitter and then returning it to them?
depends on if he's read it yet
in my defense it is the sports page from a woman not the sports page from a man who has already read it on the shitter.
Depends on what kind of relationship you have with them. Good friends could care less, work colleagues should wait till their colleague had their turn first.
at my old job there was a community newspaper, and one of the women i worked with was utterly disgusted when she found out the guys in the office grabbed a section to go shit and returned it when we were done. she must've thought we were wiping our ass with it or something cuz she literally flipped over it
Got batshit crazy?
She knows I read her paper but I don't think she is aware I tuck it under the arm and go for a stroll.
Dude if its a chick's paper you have to take it at all cost. Especially if it grosses her out, it's kind of like pulling a prank at that point.
she leaves work before me so is it okay to return it to her stack of old papers after she leaves or do I risk her trying to take her paper home with her at the end of the day?
Douglas - How did you get D. Henderson before me on waivers?
It's okay to return it to old work papers.
because i'm the man
that's the best reason i got anyway
When did you add him?
I don't remember, I got 3 yahoo leagues, none of which i can access at work, so i think sometime sunday or monday at home maybe. i can't remember who the hell i got in any given league
Wes, here's what happened.Last week when you dropped Tamme for Austin you moved to the bottom of the waiver list. So at 7:30am Yahoo processed all the requests. I I grabbed Buffalo, Douglas Grabbed Crayton and you got Flacco. So once round 2 begin I grabbed Bush and then douglas went and got Henderson. If you would have had the Henderson move ranked higher than the Flacco then it would have been processed first and you would have beaten Douglas.It puts everyone on waiver on the weekend until today to make sure we don't have a situation where Brent and I are watching all the games all day long cherry picking players as people get hurt. Everyone gets a chance to grab a player.The one thing I wish I had set i up to do was make the order reset weekly based on your ranking instead of having the previous week roll over.
btw, today and tomorrow all the players are FA so you can do whatever you want. It only locks them down once the games begin to the day after the games end.
DirectTV owners, if you have NFL sunday ticket call and say you will cancel and they will then offer you a discount rate per the EZ and Bozich show.
they doing that because of the red zone channel that's supposed to come out?
btw, insight isn't carrying the red zone channel because it would be too expensive. the cost?$3 per customer. per year.
no clue, but the radio show with EZ and Bozich is saying in the future they may try it on the air. It was one of their interns or something that got the discount and want other people to try it and let them know if it works like they heard.
if you got the balls, just call up insight and tell them you are going to switch to directv because of all the outages they'll give you a deal toomy big worry is they'll say "no problem, fucko - cable has been turned off! good luck with that!"
Joe, so what do I need to do, call directtv and tell them Im going to cancel, but I thought I already signed up for the year, did they say what kind of discount you get?
Philco - you going to be on MCS tonight around 10 or so.Brock says he is getting hit by the guy with the most $$$ in Louisville so he wants to coordinate the three of us to take that bitch down a notch or two or ten. LOLYep, planning online destruction...durp!
I tried to get Sir Coy, but all of his streets are protected.
read this on the blog:"we will be taking down the game on THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 17 at 15:00 GMT. We anticipate that the game will be down for 12 to 24 hours as we reset and test the game. When the site comes back live, the game will restart."also:Q: How can someone bulldoze my bonus building? I thought they were safe?A: A bulldoze card can destroy any building on a non-protected street, a bonus, or a hazard on your own street. Yes, a bonus building can be destroyed. A bonus building protects your street from a hazard being built on the street and protects all of the other buildings on the street from the bulldozer as long as the bonus building is still standing.Q: Does owning streets that are connected to each other have any special power/rent opportunity?A: No.Q: When do I get payday? It’s been more than 24 hours since the time I registered/last received payday?A: Rent is paid out once every 24 hours, which starts and ends at Midnight GMT. You need to log in or refresh the page to receive rent
