Always be blogging…

Read it, don’t read it, I don’t care…just needed to get some things off my chest.

In no particular order of chronology or importance…

Not on the clock.  Not an airplane rant.  Afternoon rant.  Semi-speed version.  Let’s turn and burn.

1. Greetings and salutations, people.  Sunday blog.  Starting this during the fantastic Steeler game.  Should be a fun ride as most Sunday blogs are (at least in my head).  Let’s move.
2. I don’t want people reading this blog for prizes. No prizes today.  I want people reading this thing because I know my stuff and because readers enjoy this.  I plan on being famous someday, and want the real readership, not the prize readership.
3. Chris D, I am talking to YOU. Gave him second chance on a prize and he blew it…AND had the audacity to ask me why I didn’t buy him pizza.  Dude.  My favorite number is #11.  NOW you know.  
4. Started with that.  Has transpired into an addiction.  
5. I am never sure whether it happens or whether I write it in.  I once went up to a par 3 in golf, added the 10 numbers on the course layout, and figured out they added up to 11.  I hit it within 5 feet of the pin while my friends were trying to figure out how I calculated that after that many drinks.
6. I Uber to golf outings.  
7. I actually Uber to everything on the weekend.
8. I noticed Brendan doesn’t read this.  This is the guy.
9. Mad at myself for running to the run over dog 10 minutes ago instead of the hit and run driver who left.  
10. I would suggest hosting bar golf during the day and before the CU-CSU game.
11. Lindsey made hole 5.  Then, time to get her home.  And I am the old one-lol.
12. BUT, big news. I am now allowed back into Hayters, a bar I helped open as a bartender.  Too long of story to explain why I got kicked out and why last night I was let back in, but just go with it.  Mike, you are the man. 
13. JJ, might have had a couple pops…Lindsey loves brunch on the weekend.
14. Have I told you how much of a bad dude JJ is?  
15. Seriously, one of my favorite people on this earth.
16. By the way, our wedding hits no sporting events after my extensive research (extensive), and we are getting married on Earth Day.  Widepread Panic will be playing at the wedding.  Green, baby.
17. 
18. Not sure how I feel about Fall Out Boy being the new Steelers touchdown song.
19. Lindsey is closing her eyes next to me…and GONE.
20. She is well, though.  Now that she posted the secret on FB, I can blog about it (I think I can).  She doesn’t hit brakes on anything, and God bless her for that.  This is what you look like when you don’t brake down the Winter park alpine slide.  
21. I love game time decisions, not having kids, and having the best fiancée on earth. Why am I telling you this?  Because I had one hour to decide if I wanted to go to US-Mexico in CA in October.
22. I am going.  
23. I once walked out from Sigma Pi after a long night, talked with some Sigma Pi guys in a car who were going to James Madison for the night, got in the car, and we just went.  
24. I once was sitting with some fraternity brothers on a long night in Virginia, and then had some pledges drive us 5 hours to Atlantic City that night.  
25. Atlantic City is a hole.  I always tell people to park IN the parking garage.  If you win and cross the street, you MIGHT get mugged.
26. I once…should probably stop there. Damn, I miss having pledges.
27. I don’t smoke crack thankfully, but luckily I found Draft Kings. It is SOOOOO addictive.  I just used money I won from last time, played in three different leagues, and have the website up on my computer and am presently up 11 dollars, which I will use the next time of course.  I want to be THIS guy.  
28. Kind of like a sports version of the lottery ticket, where two bucks means two more lottery tickets.
29. Depressing take on this. When you are the cover of a sports mag, it is legendary.  VERY sad to see ESPN Mag sold out and had their cover Draft Kings this issue.
30. Sports Weekly is better, and I miss the Sporting News subscription I had 10 years ago. I just need updates, not award winning writing.
31. I would like to meet one person who pronounces Jaguar and Porsche correctly.
32. I might break down in my Jeep before I buy something new, and will probably get a Wrangler hard top, but DAMMIT, I plan on owning a Porsche someday.
33. The way I am selling recently, that might not be that long.  
34. I would get it in black of course.
35. Damn, the Steelers D looks like it should have for the last 5 years.
36. Did someone text someone at Lincoln that we actually seriously LIKE the Matthew commercials? Why have I seen like 10 of them today?  
37. I just wrote 26 hooks before looking at my official list.
38. Greyson Lambert is an ex-UVA guy and was my favorite player. He transferred to UGA, and I am on record saying they will make the playoff.  After a rough week last week, he went 24-25 (record) in the game yesterday.  Any doubts, my Georgia (real fan), brother in arms, Billy?  He doesn’t read this, so there is no worry.  Billy M., text me before 8am tomorrow and I will buy you pizza this week before we move headquarters.  
39. Notice he is also #11.  Weird.
40. This is my brother in arms who doesn’t read this.  Great dude.  
41. That of course is not Billy, but just laughed that he popped up when I Googled him.
42. We are moving to THIS dope place. We are the glass part of this extraordinary place.  David doesn’t mess around.  
43. We will be in the glass building.
44. Mom, dope is worth it in this case.  She told me to back off the “dope” references.
45. With Grandfathered, the show with John Stamos, I thought it was a dream, but then remembered I watched 20 minutes of it without sound on a delayed flight.  
46. I thought the NCIS madness had stopped, but then I just saw a New Orleans one commercial today. I won’t mind that one as much, because I have done my damage on that town over the years.  Second favorite city in the U.S., with San Diego and Boston being before and after.  
47. At least there is not a new CSI yet.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mznsEcZlM2I
48. Watch it, people. It is HILARIOUS.
49. Waiting…WATCH it. I will wait.
50. I am back on Oregon as my fourth playoff team as Stanford sure shot the USC fans in the foot yesterday.  I hop Vernon will be ok.
51. Somewhere, Pete Carroll is laughing.  
52. Probably in Green Bay I am assuming…
53. Ole Miss can lose every other game of the season, and this season was a success. Didn’t see that coming, folks.  How are you doing, Robert (he doesn’t read this)?  
54. And no prizes for reading it this week, Mr. Pearson.
55. I couldn’t imagine watching that Ole Miss game with him.  Assuming house has some damage to it.  At least the basement.
56. I went 3-4 on my college picks.   Bad week.  I have said since August that you HEAR my picks until week 5, and you LISTEN to them before.  
57. I just watched this again yesterday, and still am amazed and proud of what I did. I couldn’t miss, love other people’s kids, and stuffed animals.  https://www.facebook.com/lorie.sanchez/videos/4492736163857/
58. I think Hotel Transylvania comes out tomorrow. The first one was one of my favorite cartoon movies of all time, I know I have already said this, and I still LOVE this pic of me and my lady.  
59. Lindsey’s friend, Bri, said she got ready for CU-CSU in 15 minutes, and we know we don’t believe her.  She is one of my two Lindsey friends who knows Seinfeld, so I would never say anything but nice things about her.  
60. Here is the other one.  
61. Just stay in one night, save the cash, and go to Beast and Bottle. Thank me whenever you want to.  I am open.  
62. Lindsey had never seen the Little Jerry episode, and now I know why she didn’t get THOSE jokes.  
63. Lionel Richie’s Easy could be one of the greatest songs of all time.  
64. Roll the dice, pick out of a cup, and pray it isn’t horrible. I was at Lindsey’s friend’s birthday Friday.  Gay guy, and very cool.  Interesting party to say the least.  I learned what “twerking” is, and luckily that is as bad as it got for me.  Joey always gave the “…or just do a shot” option thankfully.  
65. I ran the game the second round, in case you care. I am the guy who keeps the party trucking in an organized fashion.
66. Lindsey bought me chipotle gouda from Boar’s Head yesterday. I am ranking it #2 behind Havarti as the best cheese…ever.
67. In case you all didn’t know this, I worked room service at Boar’s Head Inn in Charlottesville post Navy when I was still trying to find myself.  
68. I just worked the Sunday buffet so I could eat all of the extras when an entree was removed from the line.
69. Now, 18 years later, I will let you know if I succeed in doing that (finding myself).
70. Just kidding. I found myself.  I just know I am the wildcard in the deck.
71. Don’t think I have cussed yet, Mom.
72. This is the nice gentleman I met last night at bar golf. Lindsey faded out, and apparently, we left about 10 minutes before this nice guy started chirping and getting in fights.  Good exit.  
73. TOLD you you would be in my blog, Andrew.
74. Lindsey just explained to me that Draft Kings probably pays out one out of every millionth person.  Thanks, babe.  Didn’t think of that.  I still say you have full control and choose your own destiny.  
75. Lindsey was quite petrified while I rooted for the Broncos the other night in their miraculous comeback. It is just because I had a feeling, I posted it on my blog so therefore believed it and became passionate, and will go back to being the Bronco hater that I am.
76. I don’t feel guilty for sitting inside today on this beautiful CO day watching football. Pretty sure when I decide to do something, my fun is close to the top of the list in anyone’s book.
77. Did you notice that the Chiefs play Rock Star music during their games? I love them for that.  I also know that this is one of the greatest movie scenes ever.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K41KC1dK1cU
78. Seriously, it is amazing.  And Marky Mark is on my man crush list.  Deal with it.  
79. BYU didn’t win, but they covered and still should scare the shi…crap (yes, MOM) out of anyone if they are on your schedule.  
80. So, UVA won, it said here on the Fillerbuster they would be 1-3 after four games, and we play a pissed off Boise State team next week.  Everything I said was correct.  
81. I have been procrastinating on calling Direct TV to renegotiate a new deal. I am waiting until the Steelers are NOT on main tv.
82. I like my couch a LOT.
83. I didn’t post my Billy Joel pics from this week. Here you go.  
84. 
85. 
86. Dude can still bring it.  Only a slight limp playing the guitar on Still Rock and Roll To Me…
87. I think it was awesome that Buffalo had PUMPS in their stores front and center before the Pat s game. Looking at the score, I assume that was about as funny as that joke got.
88. Picked up David Johnson this week on the fantasy wire.  Did YOU?  
89. The Texas HS kids are blaming the attack on the ref on the coach. You KNOW where I am going with this.
90. Think about it.
91. Some more…
92. 
93. Yup, for my company video that apparently will be shown when we sell something, I did the crane.  
94. Half my of the good part of my life has been based on that, Over The Top, and Rocky.  
95. 
96. Get your own idols.
97. I knew they had the players and manager, but didn’t think the Rangers would storm back like this.
98. I also thought the Giants would make a run, so what do I know?
99. So, Black Mass might be good, but they have the BALLS to release this movie 25 years after one of the best gangster movies of all time?????
100. Goodfellas, people. Keep up.  Stop reading this and go watch it if you have lived in a vacuum for your life and somehow missed it.  
101. If Patrick Kane gets busted, I feel shallow about who I love in the sports world. I really believed he had sat his demons DOWN.
102. Yes, I think the Final Countdown Europe commercial might be one of the best commercials…ever.  
103. John Norum was such a badass and is my #1 most underrated glam rock song when he broke away from Europe.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LhV7DEmLgMY
104. Yes, I know that is the third time I have mentioned it.
105. El Tigre. Back surgery.  I could write an entire blog about him and my hit and miss love affair with his golf.  I will hold it in today.  SOOOOO frustrating.
106. If I am FSU, I am happy about my defense, but still doing some shots at night thinking about my offense.
107. That Clemson-UL game I heard was PAINFUL to watch. Read the box score.  LOOKED painful to watch.
108. Watching Sooner football with Lindsey is a roller coaster. Trying to remind her that I have OU in my playoff doesn’t resonate DURING a game.  Actually nothing resonates.  God bless her.
109. LOVE her though, as when I extended the invite to her for the US-Mexico game, she checked her phone, and said THESE sexy words. “I would like to go, but baby that is OU-Texas.”  
110. So hot.
111. Piercy, Fowler, and McIlroy all shot a minus 4 or 5 yesterday, and they were STILL down 7 strokes to my guy, Jason Day.
112. Doubt me. For you long time readers, I am DRIVING the freaking wagon on the Jason Day bandwagon.  
113. I would just like to buy an Australian accent.  I say “No worries” to everything.  Can’t I get some love.  
114. Everything I know about Australia is from that movie and everything I know about NASCAR is from:  
115. Interesting game tonight between GB and Seattle. Seattle owns the recent games, the Packers look good and are at home, and I changed my pick at least 12 times during the week.
116. Ended up picking the Packers.
117. I will be honest with you. People are different.  I can’t imagine working a job that paid the same whether I rocked it or didn’t rock it.  I LOVE sales.  I need to get paid more when things are going well and paid less when things suck.  I show up every day to DO stuff.  
118. Watch this clip.  This is what it is about.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q4PE2hSqVnk
119. Or this one.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2sYh0cnJ5r4
120. I never thought I would be a cat guy, and it is just because we don’t have time (or a yard) for a dog yet, but I LOVE this guy. He won’t let a door be between us.  Never thought I would love that so much.  
121. I have not run this by Lindsey officially, but hopefully she doesn’t notice my soul patch growing back. I MISS that look.
122. I feel like LeSean McCoy is on his way to being the football version of Tracy McGrady.  
123. Think about it.
124. Longer…it makes sense.
125. During a fun day yesterday, I had to remember who I was speaking with. Lindsey was the OU fan in the morning, her alma mater CSU self in the early evening, and then changed into golf clothing for bar golf.  Talk about multiple personas in a good way.
126. I had a girlfriend with multiple personas…the bad way. You never know how life is going until you watch someone literally talk to a wall (no paintings or anything) and interact.  Freaks you out a little.  I watched Poltergeist and A Beautiful Mind that night.  
127. That hook was awesome. Don’t skim.  Read that crap again.
128. Denver has some of the best weather you could ask for. I LOVE how we are in September and the weather knows to be beautiful during the day and like 55 degrees at night.
129. Park and CO has my #4 ranked CO burger (Justice Snow’s, Humboldt, and Highland Tap), has a very uncreative brunch menu, I got word it was amazing, I ate it today, and still just thought it was…ordinary.  
130. Expensive unless you go there between 5-7 and order a burger.  Work the angles.  That is life.
131. I forget whether I care about the Emmy’s or not.   That’s right.  I don’t care, because Seattle-Green Bay will be on.
132. DeAngelo Williams looks great, but most people don’t know he played at 230 with the Panthers. He is at 215 now.  Bell is our stud and a freak, but nice to know our fallback is locked and loaded.  
133. I got an oil change today. Not that I am taking Eleanor into the mountains anytime soon, but ALWAYS a sigh of relief when the guy says “nothing major noticed, and your total is…”
134. I am at 163k. I want 200k.  Stay with me, girl.  
135. Not my car, but you people close to me know the story of why she is Eleanor.
136. I did SO much before breakfast yesterday that I feel good about sitting on my ass today.
137. I have been slacking. I am starting the FLAG program tomorrow morning.  Not pulling tractor trailers like my brother does, but I will also be locked and loaded in two months (second of five attempts for my brother to start talking to me again).  
138. 
139. Couldn’t find handy the truck one.  Thought the above would suffice.
140. Maybe Lindsey wanted to buy me something, but I think the closed toe sandals she bought me were a reminder that NO ONE wants to see my feet, but she acknowledged my love for sandals.
141. Landry Jones got me and Lindsey together for the long haul, but I did NOT know Landry Jones had THREE 500 plus yard games in his Norman tenure.
142. Stealing it. Lindsey’s friend said, “Time to nourish” during a long day yesterday.  “Nourish.”  Now mine also.
143. I keep forgetting in CO you don’t need to lower your voice when talking about pot.
144. I don’t smoke it, but forget it is mainstream out here.
145. Listen, people. There are two OSU’s.  Oklahoma State and Ohio State.  Someone gave me a weird look yesterday.
146. Sean, a shout out. Met him yesterday, and told him my woman told me that to become the NOT I Love You Man solo guy, I have to MEET people.  I tossed him my blog and work card.  Haven’t heard from him.  Assume I will just keep rolling like I roll.  
147. I went to neither school. How is it possible that I had to ask the server to turn the SOUND on the CSU-CU game?  I don’t even come close to grasping that concept.  I won’t be coming back, Breckenridge Brewery.
148. You could ask me a million more time. I thought Georgia Tech was going to destroy the Irish, and not the other way around.
149. The Giants just lost again. I think they are playing the fourth quarter drunk, but that is just my personal opinion.  
150. I am just bad at winners or losers pools.  Damn you, New Orleans.
151. Jameis gets me again.  
152. But let’s keep in focus what is important.  My Steelers won and looked great.
153. That’s it. Going to watch the next round of games.  Hopefully, you enjoyed or are at least more informed.  Will I blog tomorrow?  That is a CLOWN question, bro.
