Charlie Scrabbles and I are meeting up this evening to watch the Braves @ Giants game. We're also meeting up so he can give me $100 for something he's been wanting since he was a little boy.
We decided to try to blog the game live from Bob's barstools. We won't have any audio so we won't be able to hear what the TBS guys are yapping about but we'll be reading your comments so come hard with the funny.

$100?
Should I even ask?
All Things Bubba: Because how can you not love a baseball player named Bubba?
I'll let Scrabbles tell you exactly what it is.
And how bad he wants it.

Is it the loving touch of a married man?

BBT too!
You should see if Shit My Dad Says can be put on the big screen. If they turn the sound down, it might actually be funny!

didn't Petey say that show was great?
Is he full of it?
All Things Bubba: Because how can you not love a baseball player named Bubba?
Petey's out there amongst those folks.
My intuition is that “great” means “huge pile of shit” in industry speak.
I do not like pickles.
Or was he involved with it?
I watched the pilot, and refrained from commenting on it here because I didn’t want to hurt any feelings.
What does a mama bear on the pill have in common with the World Series? No cubs.
Well, if Petey is involved with it
I hope he realizes that it needs work. I did not enjoy it.

I only saw the original pilot. They have since re-cast the show and re-shot the pilot.
Other than giving tune-in info, the only things I said was that there were 29 laughs in 22 minutes, and that “I haven’t heard a bad thing from anyone who’s seen it.,” which was true when I said in months ago.
I did a lot of promotional and sales work for this show, but I had almost nothing to do with the production, and cannot claim its successes nor failures beyond the audience size for the pilot.

At Qdoba just north of Bob's. First time.
I mention it only because I know it’ll elicit a comment from somebody.
i don’t care for the food all that much but they do have WiFi and they’re spinning a cool tune I’ve never heard at Chipotle.
"Fun to play with not to eat!"
I like qdoba better, they have queso
I REALLY liked The Raging Burrito in Atlanta, as well as Blue Moon Pizza.
"just a couple of weeks ago a first year student in my program told me i was charming and charismatic, it was a guy, but the point still stands.: -- justin007000
Saw the queso. Shoulda done that.
I ended up with barbecue sauce on my burrito. Because, ya know, I didn’t know how to say “No!” in Spanish.

No problem, buddy
They’re opening for Social Distortion here in DC, which sounds like an AMAZING show. Sadly, it sold out before I got tickets.
Damn, that would NICE
I saw that they were here last spring, just before you said something. So that means I should be able to catch them sometime around 2013. :)

so tonight didnt go exactly as planned
we didnt have a good view of the ball game because they moved it to a smaller tv in favor of the Nebraska game. then FVA’s stupid apple computer became self-aware and started criticizing everything all condescending-like. the beer selection was laughable, the IPAs were pedestrian, the chicks werent carbon-neutral, the jukebox didnt have any Matt and Kim, you know, typical stuff you’d expect if an apple computer became self-aware.
all in all though, it was a good time. we’ll do it again sometime, definitely. and most definitely with more pics of chicks who were hot in 1996.

Dude told Chuck" "I like your shirt." (2010 NL Central Champs)
And Chuck liked it.
Another dude asked me about my MacBook. I just kept my head down.
There were good beers there and the were some talented young(ish) ladies there. Chuck just loves his wife (and lagers) too much to take notice.
