What are we drinking tonight?

I have Miller Lite, it was on sale and I was in an extreme hurry.

ew.

I’m not drinking because at 3:30 AM, I have to drive to Burlington, VT.

Whee.

That’s no excuse to buy Miller Lite. Unless you’re beer bonging, shotgunning, or trying to get drunk on the cheap. Those are good excuses.

by Tango and Cash on May 21, 2008 7:09 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

The question is, are you guys trying to get drunk while watching the Reds’ game? I mean it’s understandable to do so. I would. If that’s the case, it’s okay.

by Tango and Cash on May 21, 2008 7:12 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

YES

You’ve seen us for two games. I’ve watched this shit since opening day. Grant me my quick drunk. It numbs the pain. :)

Why is Torre batting Kemp 6th again? This is ridiculous.

by Tango and Cash on May 21, 2008 7:17 PM PDT   0 recs

Yea, you’re right. I like how Votto is batting 7th, but Hairston and Patterson are batting 1-2.

by Tango and Cash on May 21, 2008 7:25 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

Yes.

So do we. We LOVE it.

My Friend Sent Me This Link

And it had a picture of Dusty Dice, which he just randomly rolls to figure out what a hitter should do at AB, batting order, etc. My favorite part is one side of one of the die has the word “WALK” crossed out. I wish I could find a picture of it.

by Tango and Cash on May 21, 2008 7:29 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

My Buddy Made That Picture!!!

We posted it for the first time here.

It was inspired by this original.

Vin Scully Is Saying

That Janish is coming in because Hairston just got hurt.

Sounds like he hurt his hamstring when he hit last inning.

by Tango and Cash on May 21, 2008 7:19 PM PDT   0 recs

Okay

I realize it’s LA and there’s a ton of other shit to do, but how can Chavez Ravine be that empty when it’s not raining?

It’s not just a joke that people show up late. People literally don’t get there until about the 3rd inning, from what I’ve been told.

HU!

Nice squeeze

What's More Likely?

Juan Pierre hitting a home run in real life or Ozzie Smith hitting a homer in RBI Baseball?

I think the Reds’ fans thought you weren’t going to be here so they all left.

Their loss. A man has other things to do sometimes.

As much as I love the girly drinks, there’s nothing that beats a nice whiskey on the rocks.

You can going to put schnapps in that?

Something Reds fans and Dodgers fans can agree on.

What’re you drinking?

Well done.

I’m treating myself to some Woodford Reserve. Local stuff from Kentucky.

Peppermint schnapps.

Hey, Rumpleminz is 100 proof and delicious. Chugging it impresses sorority girls.

I pride myself on my tolerance.

Then again, I somehow got blackout drunk on three drinks last Saturday, so that hurt my confidence quite a bit.

I just noticed your sig.

There’s a less popular NL West blog? Even before we invaded?

by Gray on May 21, 2008 8:45 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

AZ Snakepit was, but I don’t think that’s true anymore.

People find me whimsical or something. Either that or they really look forward to the next Toy Cannon post.

They don’t have a juggernaut like Dodger Thoughts to deal with.

AZ Snake Pit, if I recall correctly.

I like Woodford, if you can find it.

Being a broke college kid, I’m not very well-suited to the good stuff, other than that. Maker’s Mark is probably the next step down, in my experience. I’m not sure if they have that out there, either. Some of the other RRs would be more help.

We definitely have Makers Mark, I’ve been wanting to get some at some point.

If you’re last name is Pole or Johnson, you should think really hard before you name your kid Richard.

Fun fact: A Baskin Robbins Resses Shake has 2320 calories and 300 percent of your RDA of saturated fat.

I realize no one here actually has context on that.

Did you eat it?

by Tango and Cash on May 21, 2008 8:44 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

There was a commercial for it.

My, get above 155 pounds plan fails miserably when I think most calorie rich things are disgusting.

You’re trying to get above 155? I’ve got 40 lbs. on you.

In the end, life and business are about human connections. And computers are about trying to murder you in a lake. And to me the choice is easy.

Griffey.

That’s at least the 4th one like that, where it’s been extremely close. He can’t buy 598 right now.
