Caption this?

Rob and the griffin shop at the same pants store.

mayhugh said...

Will probably only get to see first half - stupid friends having stupid parties for turning 40. But I'm jacked up - let's put on our hardhats and grab our lunch pails and go to work.

BURCHFIELD

TR said...

Tell me when/if they make finals and I'll feign enthusiasm then.

Clarence said...

I envy TR that his life is so full of excitement that there simply isn't the requisite time or energy to throw behind this Tribernaut.

Hey, Dixon. Make a friggin shot.

Clarence said...

Hey, Marcus. Maybe fewer prayers and more high percentage shots.

Clarence said...

Hey, Tribe. Get a rebound somewhere. At all.

mayhugh said...

To Rob's earlier post, defense has been there. But the other end of the floor has been pretty dreadful.

mayhugh said...

Nice finish to the half.

mayhugh said...

Get the audio together Comcast. It sounds like Feinstein is calling in to a radio station to call the came.

Clarence said...

Nice commenting by the Gheorghies at the game who requested the open thread.

TR said...

My life is exciting. I finally set up the Wii university Santa got for my kids this morning. I left my kids to enjoy it, having no idea how it works.

My wife and I heard an inappropriate show playing in the basement. We came down to see the kids watching a video of Steve O getting arrested aggressively by cops. Turns out they went to Google and searched "funny rotten farts" to watch whatever videos showed up. My kids are big thinkers.

rob said...

that kind of defense wins championships

zman said...

I guess there was a tribe hoops game today? zson had his birthday party at Screamin' Parties along with 17 other kids from school etc. I am currently deaf. zson and zwoman are at another birthday party now. I am supposed to be packing for zfamily vacation but I am to tired and headachy.

zman said...

I would expect to find funny rotten farts in whatever room TR is in. No need to use the Wii.

rob said...

chicago is playing the venue across the street from the bar we're hunkered down in. lots of oldsters pregaming next to us.

zman said...

As in the Bulls or the band?

rob said...

the band

Mark said...

This just in: baseball is still boring.

Afternoon beers outside are good though.

Where's family vacation?

Clarence said...

Screamin' Panties. Been there.

zman said...

Streaky panties too. zfamily is heading to Vegas. I have a conference and we turned it into a weekly family trip. Kill me now. At least it won't snow and I can wear shorts.

Danimal said...

Z...I hear there is a great petting zoo there called the Spearmint Rhino. Zson might like it. Zwife maybe not.

Danimal said...

I wish my son felt the same about watching baseball. We have watched the last 5 innings of the Brewers Rangers game with no shot of changing the channel. Oh! It's over!

Mark said...

You turned what could've been your trip to Vegas into a family trip? You're doing this wrong?

Clarence said...

Someone spent $700 on my credit card at Spearmint Rhino a few years back.

I am pretty sure it was Igor.

Danimal said...

Igor likes petting zoos.

Clarence said...

Heavy petting zoos

Clarence said...

I had a piƱa colada earlier today. Now having a dark & stormy. It warms up by 20 degrees and I go all tropical.

zman said...

zson's birthday is Monday so we are going to an actual petting zoo--no rhinos but they have trains and pony rides. Not sure if it's a bareback situation. Probably not since it's in vegas.

Mark said...

Not often that the conversation in the comments dies at 7:30ish on a Saturday night around here.

zman said...

Spring forward killed us all.

Mark said...

Oh shit. I kind if forget about that.

TR said...

My wife's allegiance to the cult of Catholicism, combined with Daylight Savings Time, made my 7 y/o's 8:15 AM CCD class doubly brutal this morning. Poor kid will be due for a donut after that.

Wife and I watched Birdman last night. Kinda neat, but I think I've now seen enough of Michael Keaton in tightie whities to last many lifetimes.

rob said...

marls got me so drunk i forgot to shout out to my gheorghies last night. dick.

Marls said...

Scotch might have been a mistake.

Clarence said...

Rob, you failed to mention that Chicago was the first band you ever saw live. I hope you ran it back with Cetera and company.

rob said...

as it turns out, it was the musical. i blame marls. but cetera is my guy.

mayhugh said...

I thought marrying into a family with roots in Vegas would give me an excuse to visit regularly. While that is indeed the case pretty much every trip skews heavily toward family and less so gambling.

I caught the first half of the second game yesterday and UNCW looked fairly fantastic. So fast. Their press was menacing. I think they'll be on one side of the bracket for the finals.

rob said...

bunch of old tribe hoops players at the bar with marls and me. whole lot of losses in this room.

mayhugh said...

Omar, not unexpectedly, is playing like a man.

rob said...

that tarpey injury is not a good thing

mr kq said...

Were the Hofstra fans just chanting "You are Dartmouth"? I hope you two acted accordingly.

mayhugh said...

I was hearing "You are Garbage".

Aside from that 9 point burst from Marcus, the last 12 minutes of the half were pretty stagnant on both ends.

mr kq said...

That was a pretty impressive run of 3's by Marcus. Quality half, I like this team.

Is Marls shirtless yet?

Marls said...

I have been for two days.

mayhugh said...

Too. Many. Layups.

mr kq said...

And Three's.

Shlara said...

I think I'm going to throw up
these last 20 secs may kill me

mayhugh said...

OT baby. WOW. Whole new ballgame.

mr kq said...

Holy Schnikes!

mayhugh said...

Oh God.

mayhugh said...

Holy SHIT. I forgot he was in the game.

Shlara said...

ONIONS!!!!

Mark said...

I've only watched the 2 OTs of the Tribe game but it appears Rob & Marls have gotten their money's worth today.

mayhugh said...

PLEASE LET THIS GAME END

mayhugh said...

Good Lord. The whole team is going to have to sleep in hyperbaric chambers tonight, and Tarpey might need two.

Squeaky said...

That was a crazy game.


Ebirt og.

Danimal said...

Great stuff. I'd say congrats but I shall wait another day. College basketball is super terrific.

Danimal said...

Doral shaping up to be a good finish.

mr kq said...

The Facebook just told me Dixon went to my HS a couple of years after me. I'm all in.

zman said...

Just landed in Vegas and got pretzel hotdogs for the famished fam. Tribe hoops played today?

Shlara said...

I think we need to send the Phoenix Suns training staff to Bmore to take care of the Tribe players tonight. They are miracle workers

Mark said...

Best training staff in the league. Hopefully youth, exuberance and adrenaline will be enough to sustain the Tribe tomorrow evening.

Danimal said...

Will the dynamic duo be attending the game tomorrow as well?

zman said...

I don't mean to offend anyone's automotive sensibilities but if you're driving a Chevy Tahoe you chose poorly. The trunk is tiny--I fit more shit in my Volvo wagon. The brakes suck, it only has latch ports on the passenger side and the center seat, it drives like a tank and it inhales gas. No redeeming qualities whatsoever.

Clarence said...

That Tribe game was a humdinger. I slipped away from our neighbor's 60th Bday shindig with a couple of folks and watched the overtimes. Phenomenal finish. Makes me almost want to drive to B'more tomorrow.

rob said...

you know you wanna, clarence.

zman said...

Why are there so many billboards for personal injury lawyers in Las Vegas?

zman said...

I am staying across the street from the erotic heritage museum. I assume TR is the curator.

Clarence said...

He's not the curator, just a docent. But he's working his way up the brass, smelly, totem pole.

TR said...

Tribe-Hofstra game just got a mention on WFAN radio. It was at 5:31 AM, but we'll take what we can get this year.

Squeaky said...

Zman, you are the second person I know that buys those pretzel dogs. Things look like a heart attack on a stick.
