Hell yeahz.....SIS, LAST PLACE edition
We definitely have to do something to commemorate the Reds landing in the basement of the NL Central. I dont recall the preseason predictions, and i would love to have a link from a Mod showing what we all predicted, but i dont think anyone here thought this was a last place ballclub before the season started.
The last restaurant I ate at was Gordo's, the last movie I saw at the theater was Tropic Thunder, the last vacation I took was to Chicago, the last person I would want on the Reds roster is Willy Taveras(considering salary), the last GM I'd hire for the Reds is Jim Bowden, the last beer I had was an Old Style, the last thing I had to eat was an egg white omelette on a strawberry bagel, the last bobblehead I got was Edinson Volquez(and it resides at Chez Ash), the last Red Reporter i saw was jch (and he didnt ignite his clothing this time), and the last television show I watched was Man vs Food.
So........what are your lasts?
Go Reds! And take Mike Brown with you.

Like 18 years ago.
29 more losses to 100. Being a Reds fan should be justification for medical marijuana.

I think it's Asian in general
In Hawaii, it’s probably mostly via the Japanese, though there are a lot of Chinese, Filipinos, Koreans, and Vietnamese, too.
All Things Bubba: Because how can you not love a baseball player named Bubba?

Add Olive oil (or butter) lemon pepper, black pepper, garlic salt, basil, oregano, peas, mushrooms, Parmesan cheese

Last movie I saw at the theater: Get Smart at the Dollar Movies.
Last vacation I took: Pittsburgh with the rr’s.
Last person I would want on the Reds roster: Corey Patterson

"Plain and simple, I wake up in the morning and piss excellence"
Here we go
Last restaurant: I grabbed a sandwich Friday night at Quizno’s, but the night before that I ate at Great Wall Szechuan Restaurant, reputedly one of the best hole in the wall Chinese restaurants in DC. Gotta say, the food was really damn good.
Last movie I saw in the theater: Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian. SPOILER ALERT – A good 50% of that stuff at least is not in the Smithsonian.
Last vacation I took: I’m not counting little day trips to Columbus and Chicago, and I’m not counting going back home for holidays. So, the last multi-day vacation was down to Charleston, SC last August, and it was unexpectedly kickass. If you’ve never been to Charleston, great town.
Last person I would want on the Reds: Hmm. Something about Scott Spiezio…
Last GM I’d hire: Cam Bonifay. I’m amazed that guy still works in baseball. What dumbass team hired him?
Last beer I had: Miller Lite. I’ve been on the cheap booze tour. In the last two days, I’ve had Pabst, Yuengling, Miller High Life, Bud Light, and Miller Light. Beer snobs piss me off.
Last thing I had to eat: Chocolate chip cookies.
Last bobblehead I got: Edinson Volquez. Also, it’s the only bobblehead I’ve got.
Last Red Reporter I saw: jsl, at a really disappointing bar.

Folly Beach outside Charleston is da bomb

Last person I would want on the Reds: Kaiser Wilhelm. even if he werent a skeleton he probably couldnt hit a curveball. and they tell me he was mean as a snake.
Last beer I had: Yeungling. you guys talked it up so much and i wasnt real impressed with it the first few times i had it. but i’ll be damned if it doesnt represent. we got a case of it for 10 bucks. that’s the kind of story i’ll tell my grandkids.
Last thing I had to eat: challah, a nectarine, and some cheez-its
Last bobblehead I got: Edinson Volquez. i just fixed his arms with superglue the other day. it should be dry in 9-12 months.

Last television show I watched: Futurama
by Charlie Scrabbles on Aug 23, 2009 9:22 PM EDT reply actions
Canandaigua
I ended up there when I got lost looking for Watkins Glen.
The only reason I’d heard of the place is that’s where Jason of Ghost Hunters was born and raised. They went back there one episode, to check out the haunted town hall or some such thing.
All Things Bubba: Because how can you not love a baseball player named Bubba?
$10 for a case?
Damn! I can drive to the brewery and 24 bottles costs me $18, minimum.

Last vacation I took: Somerset, KY for a family reunion.
Last person I would want on the Reds: Sir Sidney Ponson.
Last GM I’d want: Brian Sabean.

Last Red Reporter I saw: Man Mountain and Gray.
Last television show I watched: Simpsons rerun (Bart’ drops a pop-fly in a championship game)

"I'm going to become rich and famous after I invent a device that allows you to stab people in the face over the internet"
ok, I'm game
Last restaurant: Jeez, I honestly don’t remember. I think it was a deli that, instead of having hot pastrami, just put the sandy in the microwave. I was told it was the best deli in Saint Louis. I’m not happy.
Last movie I saw in the theater: The latest Harry Potter. It was with family, I couldn’t skatch out.
Last vacation I took: Newfoundland and Nova Scotia. Gorgeous places, had a great time, I would love to go back with someone who hiked and was outdoorsy one day.
Last person I would want on the Reds:I have never had such strong negative feelings for anyone I have not met than I have for Dusty Baker.

Last thing I had to eat: in case you missed it in the other thread, I just ate this mountain, man.

Last bobblehead I got: I got a bobblehead of myself as a graduation present. That was pretty fucking awesome, I have to say.

"And then there was the USAID guy in Kandahar who drove a giant pink Cadillac, which the locals set on fire one day. If you wanted to destroy something symbolic during a riot, you just could not do better than that. Good stuff." - Ghosts of Alexander
The last restaurant I ate at: Gordo’s. Best burger in the city.
Last movie I saw at the theater: (500) Days of Summer. Unlike Madville, I enjoyed it.
Last vacation I took: Destin, FL back in May. Next month my wife and I are hoping to take a weekend trip to Chicago for our 10th anniversary.
Last person I would want on the Reds roster: Corey Patterson. I’d hate to see the internal strife that Dusty will have to go through trying to balance playing time between Patterson and Taveras.
Last GM I’d hire for the Reds: Steve Phillips. Really, you need a reason?
Last beer I had: Yeungling. More like Yumling, amiright?
Last thing I had to eat: Honey Nut Cherrios.
Last bobblehead: Edinson Volquez. It was in 5 pieces when I got it home, but I’ve successfully glued it all back together.
The last Red Reporter I saw: ‘than, Ash, snohio, and BK, standing outside of Gordo’s with money in my hand.
Last television show I watched: I’m getting caught up on Big Bang Theory online. I’m about a third of the way through season 2. It’s quality, but I’d put it behind The Office and 30 Rock for comedies currently on air. (I don’t watch HIMYM, though rumor is that it’s up there in quality.)
"It seems like we're not hitting because we're not getting hits." - Dusty being Dusty
We had the same answer on like 4 different questions!
Big Bang is not as good as the Office, but I probably enjoy it more than 30 Rock.
Also, HIMYM has always been good but the lack of progression in their storyline has started to annoy me. Lots of bait and switch on that show. Therefore, BBT is now the better show.
Made from 100% Recycled Awesome,
My brother lived in Destin for about a year
Too bad he moved before I had a chance to visit. I get the impression it’s a nice place to visit, but a horrible place to live.
I wouldn't drive 11 Minutes for a family reunion
so yes, she is a real trooper
Made from 100% Recycled Awesome,
Yeah, I was inlisting the help of BK to see what happened there
reply went to the right person but the wrong place

how could you possibly stomach 500 Days of Summer….I bet you also liked Seinfeld…didn’t you.

Chicago in September?
I’ll be at Wrigley for the Sunday, September 13th game. I’ll be meeting up with a college buddy and his dad (haven’t seen them since before El Nino Destructor was too small to swing a bat). Another’s friend’s uncle will be throwing out the first pitch.
The Reds will not win that day.

"Plain and simple, I wake up in the morning and piss excellence"
as if you care
Last movie I saw at the theater: hmmm. I think Chronicles of Narnia. The first one. We don’t get out much.
Last vacation I took: Maine and Neh Hampsheh. Very cool.
Last person I would want on the Reds roster: Jeter. He’s annoying, and now he sucks, too.
Last GM I’d hire for the Reds: Jim Bowden again.
Last beer I had: Red Hook ESB
Last thing I had to eat: Dinner. I’m on the west coast. Leftover chicken from mom-in-law’s — good stuff.
Last bobblehead: Benito Santiago from the Giants. Don’t know where it is now. Don’t know where he is now. Both of those are good things.
The last Red Reporter I saw: Never seen any of you, which means you won’t be able to identify me in the pictures. It’s cuz I’m on the west coast, still.
Last television show I watched: Design Star. Yeah, don’t get out much.
While I hate to defend Jeter because he gets overdefended sometimes
He’s putting up an MVP caliber season this year.

especially since
he hasn’t looked that great on D this year. Unlike 2005, when he looked so much better that some fans were speculating that he was cheating to his left because A-Rod had so much range.
I think defensive stats still have a long way to go.
All Things Bubba: Because how can you not love a baseball player named Bubba?
Best answers ever (because I'm 12 kinds of awesome):
I predicted the Reds around 78-80 wins. Injuries have changed things.
The last restaurant I ate at: Barney’s Beanery, where the bar features bucket seating from old cars and over 130 types of beer.
Last movie I saw at the theater: The Hangover.
Last vacation I took: Bachelor party weekend in Las Vegas. Last extended vacation: my honeymoon in Fiji in ’06.
Last person I would want on the Reds roster: Willy Taveras, or maybe Barry Bonds.
Last GM I’d hire for the Reds: Jim Bowden.

Last beer I had: Lost Coast Brewing Tangerine Wheat
Last thing I had to eat: Egg sammich on dry wheat toast.
Last bobblehead: TV Guide Network’s Lisa Rinna & Joey Fatone on the Red Carpet. Latest baseball bobble: someone gave me Tommy Lasorda.
The last Red Reporter I saw: Haven’t met any RRs in person.
Last television show I watched: Entourage.
"There's nothing cool about your game." - Jeff Brantley, talking smack about Nyjer Morgan.
Everyone in the Pool!
The last restaurant I ate at: Timothy’s on the Riverfront (Wilmington, DE)— not much of a river, by Cincinnati standards… though we did have a body wash up couple of months ago!
Last movie I saw at the theater: Bolt, in 3-D; if the 4-year old is happy, EVERYONE’S happy!
Last vacation I took: Virginia Beach. In-laws live down there, so the price is right. Plus, got to leave the 4-year old for a night with Grandmom and Pop-pop and made an overnight escape to the Outer Banks for some grown-up time!
Last person I would want on the Reds roster: David Ecstein was my #1, but I don’t wanna’ be unoriginal. Tie for 2nd: Jason Kendall and Yuniesky Betancourt
Last GM I’d hire for the Reds: Dusty Baker— don’t say it couldn’t happen.
Last beer I had: Dogfish Head 90-minute Imperial IPA.
Last thing I had to eat: Bison Burger with guacomole, fresh jalapenos, lettuce and tomato. Sweet potato fries on the side.
Last bobblehead: Tom Browning, sent to me by a former co-worker. I went Dr. Andrews on him with the super glue or else he’d have been Jim Abbott in a Reds uniform…
The last Red Reporter I saw: Haven’t met any RRs in person— Chico’s Bail Bonds softball kept me away from the DC trip, and I’m still hoping to make the last visit to Pittsburgh…
Last television show I watched: True Blood.
"Whether you like it or not, history is on our side. We will bury you!"
Mmm, bison burger...
I was pleasantly surprised to find out while I was in Louisville that bison is plentiful there. Great, great stuff.

"And then there was the USAID guy in Kandahar who drove a giant pink Cadillac, which the locals set on fire one day. If you wanted to destroy something symbolic during a riot, you just could not do better than that. Good stuff." - Ghosts of Alexander
Hm.
The last restaurant I ate at: Andy’s Mediterranean Grill. It was good, but prepare to spend several hours on the toilet after eating it.
Last movie I saw at the theater: The Goods. It was, uh, not very good.
Last vacation I took: Cape Hatteras, NC. I prefer a beach with calmer waves and clearer water, but it was a good time nevertheless.
Last person I would want on the Reds roster: I don’t think I could handle having David Eckstein or Craig Counsell on the Reds.
Last GM I’d hire for the Reds: Bill Bavasi. Of course, he’s not that far from being the GM…
Last beer I had: Michelob Ultra. I’m a pussy when it comes to my beer, tending towards light American lagers. Ah, the hazards of being a binge-drinking college student.
Last thing I had to eat: Tombstone frozen pepperoni pizza. Very mediocre, but hey, whatever.
Last bobblehead: Joey Votto, earlier this year.
The last Red Reporter I saw: Can’t say that I’ve seen any of you. I think I’d feel a little awkward being considerably younger than pretty much everyone that goes to meet-ups, but I think it’d probably be a good time anyways. It’s on the to-do list.
Last television show I watched: Weeds. It’s still a pretty good show, but the first two or three seasons were so much better than it is now. I can’t wait for Dexter.
Have you seen the first episode of season four yet?
Showtime accidentally put it on their web-site for a while, so there’s a leak going around the internet of it. I watched it last week, it’s awesome but now I really don’t wanna wait for it to actually come on TV.
I have not watched it.
I think I will avoid it.
A problem I have with Dexter and Weeds is that I didn’t start watching them when they were first on. In fact I didn’t catch them until their second or third seasons. I was able to catch up on them quickly thanks to dvds, but I got used to watching the episodes one after another. Now it’s hard to wait the week to watch the next episode!
