Hmm, I dont think there were enough posts on that shitty MNF game last night
November 27th, 2012 at 8:24 AM
none of them are about the actual game. the game sucked.
November 27th, 2012 at 8:25 AM
Finally watched the Hunger Games and realized that’s what we should have done to those treacherous southerners years ago for their rebellion.
November 27th, 2012 at 8:26 AM
Jennifer Lawrence is a bonafide smokeshow.
I preface this by admitting I’m not a dog person — three humans losing their lives to try and save an animal is just stupid. Do not go into a dangerous body of water to save a dog. It’s not worth it.
November 27th, 2012 at 8:27 AM
That link didn’t work for me. I’m rooting for Pastner. Big East basketball, if it survives, needs Memphis to flourish.
November 27th, 2012 at 8:28 AM
Hollywood – buncha lazy ne’er-do-wells. Come up with something new.
It’s true. I was also. Fouts and I were both disappointed.
Surprise: AAU ball don’t work in D-1. Who knew?
November 27th, 2012 at 8:29 AM
Angus T. Jones is too laid back.
November 27th, 2012 at 8:29 AM
Jennifer Lawrence
YES SIR. Dare I say, but she looks hotter as a brunette. Oh, and she says in Hollywood she’s considered “fat.” Jesus Christ, if ONLY fat people looked like that…
November 27th, 2012 at 8:30 AM
That video game link brought out some classics. Bill Lambeer Combat Basketball was fun.
November 27th, 2012 at 8:31 AM
So I’m 40 today
Somebody shoot me
November 27th, 2012 at 8:31 AM
I can’t trust a skinny dude named Angus who wears nerd glasses.
November 27th, 2012 at 8:32 AM
Hollywood – buncha lazy ne’er-do-wells. Come up with something new.
Here’s one remake that’s long overdue: The Last Starfighter. Just as long as Will Smith’s weiner kids aren’t in it, I’m down.
November 27th, 2012 at 8:32 AM
Yeah, but what would you call a ‘dangerous body of water’? I wouldnt be afraid of going in the ocean to save a pet, unless there was a storm or something.
November 27th, 2012 at 8:33 AM
Full Point…happy birthday toooo yoooooooou. Welcome to the club. It’s all downhill from here.
November 27th, 2012 at 8:34 AM
Thanks for the Jennifer Lawrence picture
Not sure what was up yesterday…
November 27th, 2012 at 8:36 AM
This makes me feel better about turning 30 yesterday
November 27th, 2012 at 8:36 AM
I’ll be joining you later this week. Impossible to believe that 20 was 20 years ago.
November 27th, 2012 at 8:37 AM
cj, happy belated to you. Hooah.
November 27th, 2012 at 8:37 AM
if that’s what fatties looked like, I’d become a fatty sympathizer just like spencerohninetysicks.
November 27th, 2012 at 8:38 AM
happy birthday, full point!
November 27th, 2012 at 8:38 AM
Thanks SROD
Happy Belated CJ, if it was mentioned in the round up I missed it in all delivery problems posts
November 27th, 2012 at 8:39 AM
Excellent choice. Just wanted to give our viewers another shot of Jennifer.
/wow
November 27th, 2012 at 8:39 AM
10 foot waves that day. Pretty dangerous.
To be fair, the sentence in the roundup is disingenuous. A 10-year-old went in after the dog and disappeared, causing the mother and father to go in after the boy.
November 27th, 2012 at 8:40 AM
Pastner link fixed
November 27th, 2012 at 8:40 AM
Nah, not really something I was ‘celebrating’
November 27th, 2012 at 8:40 AM
Good find there. Very well done.
November 27th, 2012 at 8:40 AM
Definitely not worth the watch, even from a betting standpoint.
/Thought about PHI +3, glad I didn’t pull the trigger
November 27th, 2012 at 8:40 AM
I remember when I turned 30, can’t remember 20
Not because I was drunk, but because it was so damn long ago
November 27th, 2012 at 8:41 AM
rosie jones is just perfect. PERFECT.
November 27th, 2012 at 8:41 AM
Fullpoint – I’m 33 today. I was hoping to ignore it, but when you wake up and already have ten people wishing you a happy birthday you know its going to be a long day.
November 27th, 2012 at 8:42 AM
That show looks awesome. In a :15 second clip you had a close-up of a great ass in a thong, a singing little person, hot girls dancing around, acrobatic stunt attempts, and an epic fail. Sign me up.
November 27th, 2012 at 8:42 AM
Harumph!
November 27th, 2012 at 8:42 AM
This was my first birthday with Facebook on my phone. Talk about an all day reminder.
November 27th, 2012 at 8:43 AM
My only interest was that I needed 2 points from Bryce Brown.
November 27th, 2012 at 8:43 AM
Are we going to have a Big 10/ACC challenge preview post today? I am ready for the Hoosiers to put it to the Heels later tonight.
November 27th, 2012 at 8:44 AM
Somehow I think Ziegler will be back before the conference season opens on Dec. 31st against Cincy. Certainly don’t think the punishment will rival the one ND gave McAlarney a few years back.
November 27th, 2012 at 8:44 AM
Jennifer Lawrence
Delightful.
November 27th, 2012 at 8:45 AM
Lotta’ birthdays in here…Feliz cumpleaños to all!
November 27th, 2012 at 8:45 AM
Chitwood, Charlie, happy birthday to youse as well.
Anyone else, before I forget?
Aye. Between Lawrence and Jones, tally ho!

Happy Birthday Dopeman!
Happy Early Birthday Jimmy!
November 27th, 2012 at 8:46 AM
happy birthday yall. i give you this song as present.
November 27th, 2012 at 8:46 AM
Seems to me like they are planning a sequel to Casablanca, not a remake. Of course, just because I read the article doesn’t mean I actually understood it.
November 27th, 2012 at 8:47 AM
This was my first birthday with Facebook on my phone. Talk about an all day reminder.
Pretty sure getting Happy Birthday messages from facebook on your phone is the worst use of technology ever. Slightly worse than synthetic toxins and biowarfare.
/shudders
November 27th, 2012 at 8:47 AM
casablanca: here’s lookin at two.
November 27th, 2012 at 8:48 AM
my vote’s still for gourmet cupcake stores.
November 27th, 2012 at 8:48 AM
I’m an Eagles fan and my only interest was that I needed less than 3 points from Celek. He had 19 yards in the first quarter, and I got worried. He finished with 19 yards and I rejoiced. Started the season 0-4 now I’m 7-5 and going to the playoffs.
November 27th, 2012 at 8:48 AM
Forget Boy Meets World, I’m more of a Wonder Years guy myself. I’d be highly disappointed if they ever decided to do a remake/reunion though.
November 27th, 2012 at 8:48 AM
do you guys really hate your birthdays? it feels like just another day to me. I turned 31 a couple of weeks back and it was just another Thursday. except a buncha people I’d not heard from since…well…my last birthday sent me a Facebook message.
November 27th, 2012 at 8:49 AM
I wouldn’t worry about getting old. It’s quite possible you die young from some terrible affliction. I’d worry more about all the wasted hours of your 20′s and 30′s.
November 27th, 2012 at 8:50 AM
I would flip out if that happened. I told my wife the other day that the day they remake Back to the Future is the day I quit movies all together.
November 27th, 2012 at 8:50 AM
Congrats, you got it. Didn’t I hear Gruden talk about how great this DEF front line of CAR was? I believe this is the 2nd team with a back-up running back to gash them for big yardage on Prime Time. The first being Andre Brown from NYG on Thurs. nite.
November 27th, 2012 at 8:50 AM
as Hef so eloquently put it, if you are celebrating a birthday in mid-November, you were conceived on Valentine’s Day. I’d say you guys celebrating this week are outside of that window though.
November 27th, 2012 at 8:51 AM
This is the 40s crowd vs the 30s crowd right here. Although I did enjoy the Wonder Years too.
Just the sad ones. Bye bye, 20s.
November 27th, 2012 at 8:52 AM
Think about this constantly.
November 27th, 2012 at 8:52 AM
Jimmy – one of the posters at Inside Carolina made a post yesterday saying “Paging Jimmy Chitwood”, and for a second I thought they were looking for you and not the fictional character. Damn, I gotta quit reading these message boards!
November 27th, 2012 at 8:53 AM
Yeah, I think I was a couple weeks late. I dont dare to ask my parents about conception though. Yuck.
November 27th, 2012 at 8:53 AM
It gets MUCH worse when you’re in your 40′s and need to hold the phone an arms length away to read the well wishes.
November 27th, 2012 at 8:53 AM
2nd that.
/Topanga or Winnie???……you decide.
November 27th, 2012 at 8:54 AM
Forget Boy Meets World, I’m more of a Wonder Years guy myself. I’d be highly disappointed if they ever decided to do a remake/reunion though.
They did that 60-second wrap up on the last episode. The old man has a big heart attack, Winnie runs off and gets married, Wayne takes over the furniture store, the mom thinks she’s a Fortune 500 exec but is institutionalized after a lithium overdose. Paul becomes Marylin Manson.
November 27th, 2012 at 8:54 AM
yes and no. i could do without all the attention for an arbitrary benchmark of how much time has elapsed, but it’s one of the few times per year my family’s all together again, and i like that.
November 27th, 2012 at 8:54 AM
Is this a real question?
/Team Gwendolyn Cooper
November 27th, 2012 at 8:56 AM
She’s also smart as shit for people who care about the brains aspect of it all. Lord knows I don’t.
November 27th, 2012 at 8:57 AM
This is the 40s crowd vs the 30s crowd right here. Although I did enjoy the Wonder Years too.
People in their 40′s were probably late to the Wonder Years.
November 27th, 2012 at 8:57 AM
obligatory.
November 27th, 2012 at 8:58 AM
Topanga because she would actually bang you. Winnie was a total cock tease.
November 27th, 2012 at 8:58 AM
Happy birthday everybody.
November 27th, 2012 at 8:59 AM
Trick question – the answer is Madeline. She was so into Kevin, and he wanted nothing to do with her. I could never understand that. Almost made me give up on the show.
November 27th, 2012 at 8:59 AM
She’s also smart as shit for people who care about the brains aspect of it all. Lord knows I don’t.
Never, ever get involved with a woman who is way smarter than you practically and academically. You can have one but not both. Doomed to fail.
November 27th, 2012 at 8:59 AM
winnie’s a genius…easy victory.
November 27th, 2012 at 8:59 AM
Forget Boy Meets World, I’m more of a Wonder Years guy myself.
those aren’t even close to the same thing. its like saying “forget getting punch in the nuts, I’m more a blow job guy”. I guess there are people that enjoy Boy Meets Nut Punch more, but they are wrong.
/and I liked Boy meets World

Women love the snub.
November 27th, 2012 at 9:00 AM
I always change my date of birth on my facebook profile a week before it takes place to avoid the 30+ messages. Forgot to change it back one year and got a bunch of Happy Birthday messages two months later. It was still better that way.
November 27th, 2012 at 9:01 AM
Topanga for sure. TBL Birthday week up in here
November 27th, 2012 at 9:01 AM
I was listening to a local hoops guy on the radio here yesterday and he was saying the exact same thing. saying putting all those kids from the Memphis area on one team is putting way to much pressure on them individually. sounds like it’s time for Arkansas to get their poach on again.
November 27th, 2012 at 9:01 AM
Topanga because she would actually bang you. Winnie was a total cock tease.
I have no idea who this Topanga is, but this makes a lot of sense.
November 27th, 2012 at 9:01 AM
I have a ton of wasted hours from my 20s and 30s
Never really liked my birthdays. Rarely did anything special.
2 years ago I spent this week in Auckland, that was about it.
I am on team Wonder Years. I have maybe watched a handful of Boy Meets World episodes, maybe.
November 27th, 2012 at 9:01 AM
Wonder Years > Little Monsters > Working > Boy Meets World
November 27th, 2012 at 9:01 AM
Really? I’m 42 and I picked it up when the show started in ’88. I guess that was my 1st year in college, must have not been anything else on cable to hold to my interest or I didn’t have a life.
/prob go with no life
November 27th, 2012 at 9:02 AM
You know you can change settings on the phone so you aren’t constantly getting reminders popping up
November 27th, 2012 at 9:02 AM
Nonsense, sir.
Being 40 is pretty cool as long as you take care of yourself.
November 27th, 2012 at 9:02 AM
Topanga had some really chunky years there. Not sure if Winnie ever porked out.
November 27th, 2012 at 9:02 AM

But was she “thick”?

Happy Birthday Full Point. 40 isnt bad at all, welcome to the club. All you young commenters, get off my lawn.
/grumpy old guy.
November 27th, 2012 at 9:05 AM
The last rerun I saw, Corey and Topanga got in an argument because he wanted to bang her and used the fact that Sean had a girl spend the night on their second date while they had been together for two years and he was getting nothing. That was probably the early high school years though.
November 27th, 2012 at 9:05 AM
e*trade baby.
November 27th, 2012 at 9:05 AM
I despised Winnie at times, but I still found myself wishing upon a star that she and Kevin would end up together.
November 27th, 2012 at 9:05 AM
Only after marriage.
November 27th, 2012 at 9:07 AM
God Bless her. Google that name and you get ALL kinds of NSFW fotos. This is not one, but still…..whoa.

November 27th, 2012 at 9:07 AM
And Shawn had the girl spend the night only because she was being abused by her father.
/I know every Boy Meets World episode by memory
November 27th, 2012 at 9:07 AM
Winnie. I have no idea who Topanga is.
November 27th, 2012 at 9:08 AM
Probably more like late 30 vs. early 30s. I’m a Wonder Years guy (was Middle school for me), but my wife’s a Boy Meets World gal, which was middle school for her. If you were watching this shit past your freshman year in high school, you needed more friends.
Also, Teen Topanga is a total cocktease.

November 27th, 2012 at 9:09 AM
What was the deal with Mr. Feeny? He was their middle school teacher and then basically followed them to high school? How did they make that work? Always found it funny that he was ALWAYS there.
November 27th, 2012 at 9:09 AM
Oh my Jesus, that google image search was great.
November 27th, 2012 at 9:09 AM
The Wonder Years episode where Wayne kills that gerbil (?) in the science experiment maze and then Kevin hauls off on him and destroys him and makes him cray. All time TV episode.
Kevin got himself friend zoned as he became a confidant after Winnie’s brother got killed in vietnam. Clown move.
November 27th, 2012 at 9:09 AM
Haven’t celebrated a birthday past the age of 8. Gotta be honest, adults getting hyped up about their own birthday are so damn annoying.
November 27th, 2012 at 9:10 AM
boy meets world was funny, wonder years resonates if you watch it even today.

Nowadays he’d be the creepy old guy who followed his neighbor’s kid from school to school. I know he was the high school principal, did he end up being a professor at the college too?
November 27th, 2012 at 9:12 AM
Yes.
November 27th, 2012 at 9:12 AM
Elementary school teacher, middle school principal, high school teacher, college professor and banging the dean, and Cory’s next door neighbor of course.
I will not let my innocent young mind think that there was anything wrong with him following those three around everywhere.
November 27th, 2012 at 9:12 AM
Have you tried “Teen Topanga” though?
November 27th, 2012 at 9:12 AM
I never begrudge someone the opportunity to make up a reason to go out and celebrate or have a party. Life is too short, sir.
November 27th, 2012 at 9:12 AM
Topanga is seriously this girl’s first name? Is she from the Zulu nation?
November 27th, 2012 at 9:13 AM
Yeah but you might be able to convince her to give you the back door instead. You know, because then she’s still technically a virgin.
November 27th, 2012 at 9:13 AM

November 27th, 2012 at 9:14 AM
Have to admit that birthdays don’t mean that much to me and it’s just another day, I still feel like I’m around 30. But my wife threw me a surprise 40th birthday party 2 summers ago and it was a blast. I drank too much and body hurt for 48 hrs afterwards. No birthday will touch that again.

In the elementary school days she and her family were full of fucking weirdos. I mean, look.
November 27th, 2012 at 9:15 AM
She started the series off as a spacey, hippie child. Had a complete character transformation soon afterwards. That might explain why she had a weird first name.
November 27th, 2012 at 9:16 AM
Jerry Sandusky agrees
November 27th, 2012 at 9:16 AM
Wonder Years still holds up incredibly well today…always will.
Favorite episode – Kevin’s math teacher dies of a heart attack due to years of teaching ungrateful brats like Kevin. Kevin redeems himself by acing the final test. “You don’t have to grade it. It’s an A.” In your face, Principal Mr. Diperna!

/I’m still the youngest here, right?
November 27th, 2012 at 9:17 AM
Yeah, I see that. Each year, lots of talented wings come out of Memphis high schools. Gettin’ them to play team-oriented ball is another question. Family and friends want each of ‘em to be superstars.
It’s a point of pride in the city to have that roster most/all homegrown. But, Calipari had a good point – get the best players you can to fill specific roles. Five or six wings and no posts players is a flawed premise.

So Vegas people, anyone have March Madness reccomendations for sports book game watching? Just booked my ticket yesterday.
November 27th, 2012 at 9:18 AM
This also makes me think that Wilson, the neighbor on Home Improvement that never showed his face, was either a serial killer burying bodies in the backyard or some other sort of sexual offender. There’s probably more from other shows too now that I think about it.
November 27th, 2012 at 9:18 AM
Did you guys watch Bug Juice in the 90′s? I really liked that show as a kid. Almost convinced my mom to send me to summer camp after watching this show.

William Miller was a smart little guy who got a corporate account from Rolling Stones, got to travel the country following Stillwater, and was getting deflowered by their groupies, all while getting paid to hash out a think-piece about a mid-level band struggling with their own limitations in the, you know, harsh face of stardom.
Kevin was confronting his home-erotic demons with Paul and trying to derive some some manliness by being emotionally manipulated by Winnie, remaining insecure and unsatisfied in his family and social circle. A puppet.
Glorious Victory for William Miller in Almost Famous > Kevin Arnold.
November 27th, 2012 at 9:19 AM
i have too many favorites, the ones that stick in my mind were the ones where they want to get the color TV for christmas and when kevin is dating that girl who tries to change him into a ken doll type boyfriend, then her dad basically tells him to get out while he can, b/c he couldn’t.
November 27th, 2012 at 9:20 AM
In the past I have watched games at the Rio sports book and the Flamingo wanst bad either.
November 27th, 2012 at 9:20 AM
Not a lot of scoring opportunities in that game, why were they cutting into RedZone for it?
November 27th, 2012 at 9:21 AM
I just remembered a college years Boy Meets World episode where Fred Savage plays a professor who nearly sexually assaults Topanga and Ben Savage beats him up. That was deep shit.

Not a lot of scoring opportunities in that game, why were they cutting into RedZone for it?
It was one of only two games going.
November 27th, 2012 at 9:22 AM
And it’s obviously Winnie over Topenga since the former is a certified mathemagician
November 27th, 2012 at 9:22 AM
Red Zone is weird like that. They often get fixated on a inconsequential game.
November 27th, 2012 at 9:22 AM
It’s not even close, really.
1.) William Miller would have closed the deal on Winnie.
2.) Important to mention: Kevin Arnold was a Jets fan.
November 27th, 2012 at 9:23 AM
I remember it, very vaguely, though. Never wanted to go to summer camp.
November 27th, 2012 at 9:24 AM
and really, did ben savage and topanga really need to take this long to sign on to girl meets world? it’s not like they had to choose between Downton Abbey, Homeland and Girl Meets World.

it’s how you can tell whoever is in charge is a degenerate gambler when they do that.
November 27th, 2012 at 9:26 AM
And Fred’s name in it was ‘Stuart’. You knew he was going to be a douche.
That was one of the better serious episodes, though.

Kevin’s math teacher dies of a heart attack due to years of teaching ungrateful brats like Kevin.
We had a substitute teacher taken out of our high school from a mid-class heart attack. She yelled “you did this to me” as they took her out on the guerney.
November 27th, 2012 at 9:27 AM
sounds like she had a charmed life as a sub.
November 27th, 2012 at 9:27 AM
AWESOME
November 27th, 2012 at 9:28 AM
If true, that is awesome. Not the heart attack necessarily, but her is gold.
November 27th, 2012 at 9:28 AM
Social hierarchy is developed from an early age. As soon as they got to the camp, you could see the popular kids banding together into their separate group. I remember there was this native american girl that the popular kids made fun of because she kept trying to educate them about her culture.

Stayed there a couple of years ago, place is like a mall. Unbelievable in size. We decided to walk the strip and walked to Margaritaville, holy shit, what a hike. Took a cab back.
/saw Macaulay Culkin at Mandalay on the casino floor
//looked all strung out
///dealer said he had been there all night, was tired. Yeah right
November 27th, 2012 at 9:29 AM
Mirage is a good sports book…wherever you decide to go I would recommend getting there pretty early
November 27th, 2012 at 9:29 AM
Get up early, place your bets elsewhere, then run to MGM to watch the games. Bally’s has some spots too. I think some of the co-owned sites you can bet at one place and cash at another in the casino family. I havent been in a few years though.
The one thing that sucks is you’re paying for your own drinks at such in the book area and seating can be a bitch. You almost have to camp out. I think a broacasters convention usually coincides with that week so the town is jammed up.
November 27th, 2012 at 9:30 AM
Do you remember the wrestling team episode where Donkey Lips and SPonge have to cut/gain weight? And Donkey has the claw cracker for the lobster dinner they get for making it? I loved that episode, taught me a lot about life.
November 27th, 2012 at 9:30 AM
Which weekend you being out there Cleet? Found a good deal for the Sweet 16/Elite 8 one so I figure it will be like a more subdued version of the opening round craziness out there…and agreed on the Mandalay book, good spot
November 27th, 2012 at 9:30 AM
I stayed at THE Hotel at Mandalay last year, really nice place but its too far down the strip. I would rather stay somewhere towards the middle like Mirage or even Flamingo
November 27th, 2012 at 9:32 AM
and really, did ben savage and topanga really need to take this long to sign on to girl meets world? it’s not like they had to choose between Downton Abbey, Homeland and Girl Meets World.

November 27th, 2012 at 9:34 AM
The Tropicana was really nice when i stayed there over the summer, but too far down the strip.
would be totally worth it to spend the extra and stay at any of the hotels between the cosmopolitan and the venetian

Speaking of Camps, anyone ever see the show Hey Dude, which I believe was on Nick. Couldn’t decide between Brad or Melody. Team Brunette, but after seeing Christine Taylor as she got older, I’m on Team Melody
/How did Ben snag her
November 27th, 2012 at 9:35 AM
Yeah, I am planning on it being crowded, and having to camp out. I won’t be betting on any games but I’m sure my friends will (it’s my friend’s bachelor party). Is it a situation where one person can camp out seats for a whole party or is that frowned upon?
November 27th, 2012 at 9:35 AM
Most of the larger sportsbooks don’t do free drinks anymore because of the poor economy. Which sucks. Would often times place bets at Mirage and then hang out at a place like the Venetian. For March Madness, I assume they will make it so you have to bet $100 for one free drink ticket. Someone mentioned Mandalay which is great, but you’d probably have to be staying down on that end of the strip.

JMac…the NFL can not say what substance the player was suspended for…so players just release their own statement claiming it was Adderall because it can not be challenged.

November 27th, 2012 at 9:36 AM
True. My first trip to Vegas, stayed at NYNY. Walked outside, wanted to walk to Ceasar’s, Treasure Island, it is farther away than it looks. Took that train/tram back. Always do a evening on Fremont Street too.
November 27th, 2012 at 9:37 AM
23-24, second round weekend, in my opinion the greatest weekend of the sports year.
November 27th, 2012 at 9:37 AM
I watched RedZone via the DISH Network a couple weeks back…not the same as DirecTV. Andrew Siciliano and crew with DirecTV are streets ahead.
November 27th, 2012 at 9:38 AM
when the wife and i stayed at the Tropicana we walked all the way up to the Wynn for the buffet the first night there, and all the way back again. didn’t realize until the next morning that we hiked 4.2 miles in 98+ degree heat.
November 27th, 2012 at 9:39 AM

Wally Wifebeater from Scranton, PA will just sit down and join you as he throws his big legal table and daily paper down with his coffee. Not sure you’ll have much to say about it. Good luck with that.
November 27th, 2012 at 9:41 AM
yes and no…I would rather go cheap on the hotel (like Flamingo) with a great location since you are rarely in it. When we stayed at THE Hotel it was super nice but we were never actually in the room.
November 27th, 2012 at 9:41 AM
We stopped down to Fremont St the next day and I enjoyed playing 4 Queens and Golden Nugget much more than at Mandalay Bay. The obvious was the cost, but the feel of playing cards/slots was mor what I had imagined when I went to vegas for the 1st time. F
November 27th, 2012 at 9:42 AM
but there couldnt have been a better summer camp show than Salute Your Shorts
TV movie called Poison Ivy with Michael J Fox and Jo from Facts of Life as counselors. They get Timmy to confront his fear of swimming for the key end of camp relay races. Fucking gold.
November 27th, 2012 at 9:44 AM
i see it as you’re also paying for the ability to stay within the hotel if you wanted to. some of the older hotels tried to retrofit the shopping experiences, dining, spas, pools, etc that the newer hotels did, but they failed pretty bad.
November 27th, 2012 at 9:44 AM
I’m a Four Seasons man myself…when you get back to your hotel, you no longer feel the scum of Vegas on your skin. You don’t get worn out as much.
November 27th, 2012 at 9:44 AM
If you go to Vegas with a wife go to a nice place like Paris. Going with the buddies, go cheap. Will you have a car?
November 27th, 2012 at 9:46 AM
JMac…the NFL can not say what substance the player was suspended for…so players just release their own statement claiming it was Adderall because it can not be challenged.
/Players are on the juice man.
and, they can say that a fellow player who has a prescription grinds up his Adderall, and puts it in his soda, which you then accidentally share.
And the other guy can say that the sample taker mixed your peepee with the other guys peepee on accident.
And nobody can say they are lying. We can only laugh while they push their suspensions till the start of next season.
November 27th, 2012 at 9:46 AM
Now going over the best Boy Meets World episodes in my head, wedding and finale excluded.
1) ‘Cult Fiction’
2) ‘And Then There Was Shawn’ (the Halloween episode)
3) ‘The War’
4) ‘Everybody Loves Stuart’
5) ‘An Affair to Forget’
November 27th, 2012 at 9:48 AM
The previous time I went to Vegas we did that. 3 dollar blackjack and the cashier behind the old style bars was fun as hell, doubt that even exists now.
November 27th, 2012 at 9:48 AM
That year Eastern Michigan beat Duke in round 2, I was in Vegas and bet every game the first two days. I think I was 20 and went as a first real trip I took w/ my dad. I was working on the stats team at college at the time and was very dialed in on ncaa hoops. Paid for the whole trip. My dad couldnt believe it. That EMU-Duke game remains the most Ive won on any sporting event ever.

Was at Rio one time and they cleared out the pool area for a weddding, everyone was standing around guessing over/under on the bride’s weight.

It just closed…Wild Bills Gamblin’ Hall is a great (and I mean great) cheap place to gamble. $5 craps tables live there
November 27th, 2012 at 9:58 AM
it wasn’t that bad when i went in june. 104 degrees. dry heat. tolerable. dress appropriately and duck into the casinos if you walk the strip, pay for the tram, it’s worth it.
coming from a very humid heat the week before i went in NJ made a dry heat feel nice.
November 27th, 2012 at 9:58 AM
I go to Vegas for a conference every May (50,000 Commercial Real Estate people in Vegas at the same time is about as annoying as one could imagine) and have stayed a lot of places over the years for it. this past year I stayed at The Signature at MGM Grand and it was fantastic. off strip, away from the noise and hoi polloi but connected to a major casino (a bit of a walk though). right on the monorail if you need that, which I did, so that was nice too.
November 27th, 2012 at 10:00 AM
it seems every time I go to vegas its always July/August. Great for spending hours at the pool…not so great when you walk down the strip
November 27th, 2012 at 10:02 AM
IIRC ,O’Sheas was over there by Imperial Palace / Harrah’s on some corner. Had some silver-painted guy out front who used to pretend he was a statue. Like that guy in Hot Fuzz.
November 27th, 2012 at 10:03 AM
Havent been to Vegas in years but the Rio Suites were always cheap, with huge rooms, and the book didnt make you buy drinks. I bet online and watched all the college football & NFL games there with no problems. I havent been to other books though, but Rio was more than sufficient for a degenerate like myself.
November 27th, 2012 at 10:03 AM
which is essentially why i like to go. i don’t gamble, but i like the nightlife, dinner and entertainment options, and baking by the pool at 8am.
November 27th, 2012 at 10:04 AM
that guy is still there, but i think the Guatemalans peddling smut cards forced him down to the denny’s at casino royale.

might as well pour one out for The Imperial Palace. they re-branded it “The Quad LV” with the recent remodeling. I hope they never give up the rotating karaoke pop star blackjack dealers. that always made for some fun late night.

The 23-24 is the first weekend. They have caused mass confusion by calling the play-in games the “opening round” and “first round” to make those teams feel better. But the weekend we are going is round of 32.
November 27th, 2012 at 10:21 AM
If you drink domestic beer, the sportsbook at Planet Hollywood is conveniently close to the PBR Rock Bar that sells 24 oz cans of beer 2 for $6. Not sure if they normally allow this but a few friends and I camped out at a table at the PH sportsbook after placing some bets on college football and were buying all of our beer from that Rock Bar.
November 27th, 2012 at 10:23 AM
i’m not sure how the sports books in the new places in the middle of the strip like Aria and Cosmopolitan are, so those might be worth checking out.
