College 20 Year Reunions Mean Custom Coozies
Clarence mentioned it was time to return to our regular dipshittery (though NY and NJ guys please keep us apprised of home things are going) so I am pasting below two images texted to me by GTBer Shlara from the 20th reunion of some of our chums at Pantsless Griffin HQ a weekend ago.
i look good in lederhosen
ReplyDeleteWhen I'm in holland I eat the pannekokken.
ReplyDeletemy parents have power! but my town is a wreck -- lots of downed trees, power lines, flooding, etc. no school again today . . . i'm going to kill my kids soon. we are trying to eat all our food before it spoils, but luckily/ unluckily it is supposed to get cold tonight and our thermostat is electric so we can't turn on the heat. but we do have hot water and a gas stove, so we are thankful for those amenities. lots of town togetherness and imbibing have helped pass the time . . .
ReplyDeletehow far up did the raritan come into the park, dave?
ReplyDeleteteej - the lord shown himself. my the people i am supposed to meet with next week want to move it to the following. what days are you going to be in whorlando?
ReplyDeletedanimal like english speaking.
ReplyDeleteWill be on Orlando Nov. 8-12...
ReplyDeleteI remember rocking out with the Teej in downtown Disney in 2008...
ReplyDeleteit was a good time...
ReplyDeleteIt's looking like I'll be visiting Teej that weekend. Still trying to work out the details (aka trying to convince the wife to ditch the kid for the night so we can stay over in Orlando, get drunk and allow the wives to meet).
ReplyDeleteoooh I like this plan...
ReplyDeleteif (when) we do meet up, um, perhaps you bring over some Ichiro...yes...
ReplyDeleteGoofy never looked so goofy.
ReplyDeleteI think I can manage that.
ReplyDeleteSomehow, I convinced my wife to go as Joakim Noah for Halloween.
ReplyDeleteIt's a long story, but she noticed him last year and remarked that he wears his hair the same during games as she wears her hair when she's laying around the house. I happen to have a Noah t-shirt jersey. And just like that, we have a Halloween costume. So to sum it up, I'm not dressing up but my wife is Joakim Noah and my infant is Star Wars era Princess Leia.
You didn't get that boba fett beanie?
ReplyDeleteplease tell me you've seen the dewar's ad with the pretty lady with a scots accent.
ReplyDeleteI should've, Z. Not even for Halloween, just in general.
ReplyDeleteAnd we're back from two hours of trick or treating with a bunch of parents and 7 10-11 year old girls. Halloween always makes me wistful. Not for the Halloweens of my youth but for Halloween in college. Easily one of the best nights of the college experience year-in year-out. So much booze, drugs, parties and girls dressed like sluts.
james harden got a max deal? i like him a lot, but a max deal?
ReplyDeleteTo Mark's point, my favorite costumes were in the get-hammered-for-Halloween era of 19 until 24:
ReplyDelete- a cow
- Lenny (to Dave's Squiggy)
- Kramer
- Letterman (the Electric Company superhero, not David)
Yes Rob, that's why he was traded.
ReplyDeleteget off my lawn, marls
ReplyDeleteI'm okay with Harden getting the max. Houston needed a star and this was the only way they were getting one. He's still very young (under 25) and has growth left as a player. Not just a scorer either. People underestimate his playmaking ability.
ReplyDeleteI'd certainly rather pay him max money than a one dimensional guy like Rashard Lewis or an aging brittle big man like Amare Stoudemire.
Max is kind of a loaded term because the limits on individual salary are so low (relatively). On the open market, LeBron or Durant would get way, way over the max, even with the team salary cap. So it basically means that there are probably 20-30 "max worthy" players in the league.
ReplyDeleteFree preview week means we get to see Kyle Singler play NBA basketball.
Harden is going nuts tonight.
ReplyDeleteAre Houston and Detroit actually decent to watch now or is it just that I haven't seen an NBA game in a while?
ReplyDeleteHarden has 34 and 10? How u, Sam Presti
ReplyDeleteThe Hornets might not be awful this year if Eric Gordon can get healthy. They're athletic, young and have good size up front.
ReplyDeleteAnthony Davis will be an All Star next year. And Greivis Vazquez plays waaay too much.
Hornets picked up Vasquez's option year, right? NBA confuses me
ReplyDeleteWhat did rob do to warrant his own coozie?
ReplyDeleteNOT bang Cricket?
ReplyDeleteFree NBA League Pass for a week might legitimately get me to but full-season League Pass.
ReplyDeleteDeMarr DeRozan also just got overpaid. Taj Gibson, I guess, kinda overpaid.
ReplyDeleteF Zman for living 2 blocks away and getting power. I just drove 50 miles into NY state to fill 11.5 gallons of gas cans to get my generator thru another 48 hrs. Will do the same run Fri nite if we are still out. Brutal juice in NJ.
ReplyDeleteChris Duhon getting abused by Damian Lillard right now. This is fun.
ReplyDeleteDuhon has never recovered from when Slater thought he was a bartender.
ReplyDeletethe raritan surged all the way through the park and up the hill that i live on. we had power for forty-five minutes last night and then it vanished, but quite a few people in town have power again. maybe we will get it soon.
ReplyDeletemy friend is bringing over a chainsaw today so we can get to work on the fallen stuff. if i lose an arm, i'm switching from "sentence of dave" to "word of dave."
TR is complaining and he has a generator? all us folks roughing it really look down on the "generator people."
ReplyDeletein fact, i may drive up to chatham and siphon TR's gas from his generator, just so i have enough gas to drive back to HP. could be the plot of "Smokey and the Bandit IV."
ReplyDeleteOnly if he uses Coors to fuel his generator. It's more of a Mad Max sequel. Beyond Chunderdome.
ReplyDeleteBrian Knapp is the generator.
ReplyDelete/jokeforthreeatmost
Shlara, did you mean to drop David West in the NBA league?
ReplyDeleteIf so, you might be a worse GM than Ernie.
Did you hear the Lakers are 0-2? Worst team ever. They shouldn't even finish out the season.
ReplyDeleteAqib Talib traded to the Patriots, eh?
ReplyDeleteHe's immediately their best corner. Once he's done with his Adderrall suspension. Not that surprising. He's not Schiano's kind of guy. I was actually surprised they didn't try and dump him this offseason.
ReplyDeleteTJ--I told you that I'm clueless with this Y! system. Trying to set my active roster and couldn't figure out how move players around so was trying to delete and then re-add. I'm technologically challenged.
ReplyDeleteDanimal could start in the pats secondary at this pOint.
ReplyDeleteIs Shlara much older than I suspected? She sounds like my Mom trying to figure out a new website.
ReplyDeleteshe's a hip, hip lady. like martha washington.
ReplyDeleteThank you?
ReplyDeleteShlara packs bowls?
ReplyDeleteTwas a compliment of sorts Danimal. You are clearly the most athletic member of the Gheorghosphere.
ReplyDeleteSo I know part of the FOG:TB are without power and it's the last thing on their minds but what's up with Movember? I got some charity money burning a hole in my pocket. Outside of donation to NY/NJ made earlier today.
ReplyDeleteMy ego resents your comment, Z.
ReplyDeleteTR and I just said that Sandy's silver lining is a head start on Movember.
ReplyDeleteMark -- do a triathlon and then you can start for Belichick too.
As Kenny Powers once said, 'Im not trying to be the best at exercising.'
ReplyDeleteWow - Popovich is in post-season interview form already. If the clip is on line tomorrow it's worth a watch.
