Metal Up Your Ass Friday, Featuring Pantera
It's the first of April, bitches. Baseball is starting. College basketball is ending. Tulips are blooming. So get fired up with Phil Anselmo, Dimebag Darrell (RIP), Vinnie Paul and Rex Brown.
I think "Walk" would have made more sense as a baseball tie-in. Unless this is supposed to be a Red Sox "cowboy up" reference, in which case it's terrible.
I wonder if Chad Pennington gets a frequent-flyer discount from James Andrews. Or maybe he has one of those punch cards like you get at the deli -- buy 10 ligament surgeries, get the 11th free.
Why is Nolan Ryan sitting in between George & Laura Bush? Are they like two children in the backseat of a car during a road trip when they go to a baseball game?
Pretty excited for tonight's games. Will be leaving a friends wedding (yes, another fucking wedding) early so I can watch them both. One downside: I have to root against Kemba and for Kentucky (much,much worse) as a Wildcat win clinches my NCAA tourney pool for me. I fucking hate Kentucky, and I hate their fans even more but, I do love money so...go Kentucky.

ReplyDeleteIt's far too nice outside for me to be inside working today. I believe I'll rectify that...in an hour or so.
ReplyDeletesteve phillips: 'thank god for steroids. they helped bring the game back'. lord forgive me, i see his point.
ReplyDeletepantera is fitting. the tulips are not blooming-- in fact, it is snowing like fuck right now in new jersey.

Buckles & Danimal will be reporting live tomorrow from Houston. I'm sure we'll be totally coherent.
ReplyDeleteGreg is down there as well
ReplyDeleteI think Danimal should meet Greg. And grab some purple drank while in Screwston.

ReplyDeleteThe beginning of the baseball season arrives with Lester getting fairly well hammered. Yep.
ReplyDeleteOne thing Lester is great at is getting hammered.
ReplyDeleteWait, you talking about the Red Sox pitcher?
The free preview of the Extra Innings package is such good marketing.
ReplyDeleteAs is the Thursday opening day. Except for tomorrow night, it's all baseball all the time. Well played, seemingly clueless MLB assholes, well played.
ReplyDeleteWow. The Mets suck already.
ReplyDeleteOf course, at least they aren't the Indians.
runnin' from the law, the press, the parents

ReplyDeleteIs your name michael Diamond?
ReplyDeleteNo, mine's Clarence.
ReplyDeleteBeastie's references are always a hit round here.

Unlike Mark, I'm rooting for UConn to win tonight and then lose to VCU/Butler so I have no conflicts of interest in my quest for cash.
ReplyDeleteDid anyone read Rick Reilly's hatchet job on Jimmer Fredette? Would he crack similar jokes about Muslim college students?
if anyone wants to fill 'er up, that'd be superneat
ReplyDeleteConsider yourself filled.
