Friday Free For All…..Volume 15.0

Friday Free For All…..Volume 15.0

By: J-Shannon

You’ve got to love this time of year. It has been 70 degrees or warmer all week, the NCAA basketball season is approaching March Madness, Friday marks opening day for the NCAA baseball season, and the 2011 NASCAR season is dropping the Green Flag this weekend. Oh yes, spring is in the air, and it feels just about as good as an ice cold ‘Merican, but not quite. I myself have a solid weekend planned, starting with checking out the Milton High School boys basketball playoff game. Why? Maybe because Milton is the #3 high school basketball team in the country, and they have 6 Division 1A players on their roster. Saturday is another event filled day, as I plan to cram as much college basketball into my day as possible. And then there is Sunday, where the Green flag will drop on 25 or so drivers looking to cock-block the Jimmy Johnson from a 6-pete. Yea I realize there will be more than 25 drivers racing this season, but let’s be honest; there is 25 at most who have an opportunity to bring home a NASCAR ‘Ship.

So here it is the “spring is just around the corner, can you taste it” edition of the Friday Morning Free for All……

--The “I THINK YOU SHOULD KNOW” Story from this Week:

1. High School Iowa Wrestler gives up State Title, refuses to wrestle girl….

I am not sexist by any means. I think that girls should have equal opportunities to everything that men do, including high school athletics. But is it right that a high school wrestler in Iowa defaulted rather than wrestle a girl? The wrestler, Joel Northrup, made a brief statement:

                “As a matter of conscience and my faith I do not believe that it is appropriate for a boy to            engage a girl in this manner. It is unfortunate that I have been placed in a situation not seen in          most other high school sports in Iowa."

Now is it my place to say that the kid should have wrestled the girl? No, but I do think that if girls want to wrestle in the state of Iowa or anywhere else in the country, it is their right. However, I think there should be a girls division or league separate from guys. What would have happened if this kid would have grabbed the female wrestler around the waste and dropped her on the head? Some people would have been upset. Well, that is the nature of sports, and more specifically boys wrestling. I respect the decision Joel Northrup made, but quite frankly, I don’t think the kid should have ever been put in the situation to make the decision….

2. 10 Years since we lost the Man in Black

I think it has to be said that it has been 10 years since we lost Dale Earnhardt. Not only was it a sad loss for NASCAR, but it was a sad loss for sports fans and society for that matter. This week, a moment of silence will be held during the third lap of the race, in honor of the late great NASCAR Legend. I will go on record and hand will be raised high in the air with three fingers up in his honor during that lap…..

--Things that Have Pissed Me off This Week:

Keeping it Classy Alabama Fans…..

Oh Alabama, your classiness has reached an all time high. Now I will be the first to admit that I have written some bad things about Auburn. I don’t like Gene Chizik, and I still believe that they bought a championship this year. But purposely poisoning the Oak trees at Auburn’s sacred Toomer’s Corner is terrible and downright bush league. So you’re bitter that your rival Auburn won the National Title? Tough Shit, you had your chance to do something about it, and the Tide choked. So I’m personally calling you out, Harvey Almorn Updyke, the 62 year old D-Bag who was responsible for the incident. At 62, shouldn’t you be doing other things a little more responsible than poisoning trees on a college campus? By the way, naming your children “Bear” and “Crimson” (true story by the way) is almost as pathetic as your attempt to quiet the celebration of Auburn’s National Championship.  Harvey, you are about as cool as AIDS in my eyes. I hope the judge decides that the best way to have you pay your debt to society is to have you dropped in the center of Auburn University, Where the student body can tar, feather, and beat you down exactly how Auburn beat down Alabama in the second of this year’s game…..

--Youtube Clip of the Week:

1. The guy wasn’t good enough to start for UCONN this season, but apparently all that time he spent screwing around on the practice field paid off……

2. In honor of the NASCAR season kicking off, here is the movie trailer to one of the best sports movies of all time, Enjoy…..

--The “LIVIN’ THE DREAM” Legend of the Week:

I know I have mentioned this before, but if you’re Andy Roddick, it’s quite obvious you are a “livin’ the dream” legend. First off, you have roughly 20 million stacks of Paper sitting in your bank account. You’re the best American tennis player around these days, and you travel the world on a regular basis to play the sport you love for money.

But the best part of Andy Roddick’s life, is the fact that when his match is over, he gets to go home and get a rub down from wifey Brooklyn Decker. Who is Brooklyn Decker? Unless you have been living with your head up your ass for the past year, she is the hottest swimsuit model in the land.

Andy Roddick, congrats my man, you are living the dream…. And are an inspiration for all of us at Bro Nameth….

--Real Men of Genius Bro of the Week:

In honor of the kickoff of the 2011 NASCAR season, I felt it was only right to dedicate a portion of my Friday Free for All for the next few weeks to the “Real Men of Genius,” presented by ice cold ‘Merican Bud Light. This week, Bro Nameth Salutes you…….

Mr. Silent Killer Gas Passer

 

--Shout-Outs for the Week:

- Uncle Clark and Corey Rose: Thanks to your superb contributions to Bro Nameth, you have me completely interested in NASCAR again, and I’m looking forward to the start of the season Sunday…..

- Brooklyn Decker- The 2011 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit edition is in stores and all I got to say is Andy Roddick is a lucky man….

-Miguel Cabrera- What a way to kick off MLB training camp, the guy was popped for DUI yesterday. What’s worse? He apparently had to be asked by the office to stop taking swigs of scotch while he was pulled over.

- Ronaldo- Congrats on a great career, and enjoy some retirement bro…..

-Cavs- I give you a lot of shit, but you actually managed to beat the Lakers last night. You deserve a shout out…..

-CC Sabathia- The man showed up to training camp 20 pounds lighter this week. What did he do different this offseason? He said the cut out the box of Cap’n Crunch he ate every morning for breakfast. Yea you read that right, an entire box.

As always, it’s been a pleasure. Leave a comment if you disagree with anything I got to say, and I’ll prove to you why you are wrong….. Check in again Monday Suckazzzzz.

Friday Free For All…..Volume 13.0

Friday Free For All…..Volume 13.0

By: J-Shannon

It’s Friday, and it is Super Bowl weekend! Are you excited, can you feel it deep down in the pit of your stomach? I’m already looking forward to Sunday. I know I’m looking forward to Sunday. There will be plenty of Good Ol Fashioned American Brew HAHA on ice, Chips and Dip, and chicken wings. I’m taking the Steelers, strictly because they have been there A LOT, and know how to handle the pressure. But to hold you over until Sunday, here is a fresh edition of the Friday Free for All…..

--The “I THINK YOU SHOULD KNOW” Stories from this Week:

1.    High School Recruits signed on the dotted lines….

Some of you Bro Nameth supporters may be sports fans, but if you aren’t a college football junkie like I am, allow me to catch you up on what went down on National Signing Day. It looks like the Seminoles are on their way back to domination. Florida State has a small signing class (13) but a star studded class. The biggest shockers to me for the Day were the Clemson Tigers and the Georgia Bulldogs. Clemson is losing Da’Quan Bowers on defense, but they certainly are reloading. Clemson brought in the #1 ILB in the country, Tony Steward, and #2 OLB in the country, Stephone Anthony. Also added were two 5 star players on offense, RB Mike Bellamy, and WR Sammy Watkins. Keep in mind the #1 overall player in the country Jadeveon Clowney still has Clemson on his short list of 3.

Mark Richt may not have had the year on the field that he was hoping for, but he has worked his ass off in the offseason. Richt has also brought in a star studded class for the Bulldogs. Georgia struck recruiting gold, landing 5 Star RB Isaiah Crowell, and 5 Star DE Ray Drew. I got to give the Bulldogs some credit, and I’m a little nervous to see how the Bulldogs will develop over the next couple of seasons. I will say this, if Richt doesn’t produce immediately after the class he just recruited, he will get sent packing…..

Here is how I ranked the Recruiting Classes:

1.     Florida State

2.     Alabama

3.     Texas

4.     Georgia

5.     LSU

6.     USC

7.     Clemson

8.     Oregon

9.     Ohio State

Keep in Mind, IF, and that’s a big IF, Clowney signs with Clemson, I will move them up to the number 4 class in the country.

--Things that Have Pissed Me off This Week:

1.     People who are pissed that Ben Roethlisberger had a few Beers…….

So Big Ben flew into Dallas Tuesday to prepare for the ‘Ship. It turns out Wednesday night he took a couple of his linemen out to a piano bar, and ran up a tab of drinks to the tune of $800. Some people are pissed that he went out and had drinks during the week he is preparing for the big game. I’ll just say it like this, the man is an adult. He old enough to make his own decisions, go where he wants, drink what he wants, stay out as late as he wants. I think if Head Coach Mike Tomlin was really concerned about his QB at night, he would put a curfew on the guy.

I think it needs to be pointed out that Peter King, who is the best NFL writer in the business, was at Steelers practice today. King tweeted after practice that Big Ben is “scalding hot”, and he “looked terrific.” King also pointed out that at one point, Ben threw 4 touchdowns in a row in the Red Zone.

I don’t think Coach Tomlin is worried at all about what his QB is doing at night…..

2. Gabe Wright, Who the Hell do you think you are??

So Auburn has yet again another solid recruiting class. This year they landed 4 Star recruit Gabe Wright. Gabe makes his announcement on national television, and throws on a “customized” Auburn hat. Gabe’s hat reads Nick Who? This is a reference to the future Number 1 pick Nick Fairley, who plays the same position as incoming Wright. Now Gabe may be a good player, and yea he is a 4 star recruit, but who the hell does this guy think he is? So you have the POTENTIAL to be a good player. As of right now, you couldn’t hold Fairley’s Jock. Fairley wasn’t a 4 star recruit. He was actually a 2 star, who went to JUCO, and worked his way up to start for Auburn. The guy worked his ass off to get to where he is today. Before you start getting cocky, how about step foot on a college campus and actually do something. Your explanation was shitty too, it made about as much sense as a virgin porn star…….

Here is the clip of the Doucher himself…..

--Youtube Clips of the Week:

I’m going to be honest, I thought Lil Weezy was a Saints fan from New Orleans, but he kills it here for Green Bay. Take a good listen, and listen to the lyrics…..

This one is dedicated to all of us white boys who always wanted to dunk but know there isn’t a chance in hell of it actually happening….. Shout out to Tom Pritchard of Indiana for proving some white boys can jump….

This is your lucky day as we got videos all over the place...Shoutout to Bro Zimmerman for this vid...

This last clip has got to be the fastest goalie in the history of soccer. This dude might be able to give Usain Bolt a "run" for his money...It looks fake but is 100% real. This is easily the fastest white dude alive...Shoutout to Bro Switzer for the vid....

-The “LIVIN’ THE DREAM” Legend of the Week:

This week’s Livin’ the Dream legend is none other than Bro Paterno. The guy has the life right now. He is the Head football coach for Penn State. But he is at the point in his career where his coordinators do all the work, and he just sits back and watches the action. Bro Paterno is livin’ the dream……

--Shout-Outs for the Week:

        *   Schmee- It wasn't too long ago your ambitions were to be a pirate. You have turned in your
             eye patch for a family. Wanted to give you a shoutout on your Birthday. HAPPY BDAY!       

*    Matt Watts- I would almost rather get herpes than have to admit he is right, but he did call me out on a name I left off of Monday’s NFL Underrated List. Jon Kitna did step in for Tony Bromo, and did a solid job. The guy never gets any love.

*    Cleveland Cavaliers- You still suck ass, 23 in a row, not too shabby….

*    Andy Pettitte- Congrats on a solid career, even though you were caught juicing. At least you admitted you juiced like a man, and moved on…..

*    J’Woww- She was slammin in her leather outfit last night……

*    Extra Mustard- If you haven’t clicked on extra mustard on cnnsi.com, you are missing out. Does anyone know what the G on the Green Bay Packers Helmet Stands for?? No it’s not Green Bay, Click here for the Answer….

*     Coach Mike Smith- He got his new extension, well deserved….

*     The Newest Bro Nameth Supporters…..  Eddie Carta, Wifey Crooks, Uncle Bro Tomassi, and Jeff Fetters…..

      One last sports worthy note. We have run across this facebook page that is spreading the word on steroid use. You should take a look and help spread the word. Hey sports fans, do you play steroid-free?

As always, it’s been a pleasure. Leave a comment if you disagree with anything I got to say, and I’ll prove to you why you are wrong….. Check in again Monday Suckazzzzz.

Friday Free For All…..Volume 7.0

Friday Free For All…..Volume 7.0

By: J Shannon

It’s Friday People, the Friday before the SEC Championship game…. That means this Friday Free for All is going to be jam packed so damn tight full of breakdown and analysis of the big game,  it’s going to make a Honda Civic crammed full of Mexicans look like a H2 Limo…..Here it is boys and girls, THE SEC CHAMPIONSHIP Edition of the FRIDAY MORNING FREE FOR ALL……

----THE NUMBER ONE THING I’M LOOKING FORWARD TO THIS WEEKEND:

1.       South Carolina vs. Auburn-

Let’s be honest, is there anything else going on this weekend other than the SEC Championship game? Not as far as I’m concerned. This game has a little bit of everything: The underdog, the potential national champion, the off field controversy, the freshmen sensation, and the old Veteran Coach. Does South Carolina have a chance to upset Auburn? Most people would say no, but then again, most of those same people had Alabama and Florida playing this weekend, so what the hell do they know? Here are, in my opinion, the key match ups to watch this weekend…..

·         Stephen Garcia vs. the Auburn Pass Defense- In the first meeting between the two teams, Stephen Garcia picked apart the Auburn defense the first three quarters of the game. Auburn's pass defense showed last week against Alabama that they don’t mind giving up over 350 yards of passing offense. Garcia has to be on point, and accurate. Garcia has to take what is given to him, and not make the decisions he did in years past.

·         Cam Newton vs. the USC Front 7- I would say Auburn’s offense vs. the front 7, but Cam Newton is the offense. The good news for South Carolina: Their defense has seen Cam before, and held him somewhat in check in game 1. The bad news: Cam has only gotten better since the last meeting. In order to have a chance to win the game, I think South Carolina has to make Cam Newton throw over the top of the front 7.

·         Turnover Football- Take away turnovers in the first game, who knows what would have happened. Turnovers are always important, but I feel like this game they will be the ultimate factor. IF SOUTH CAROLINA DOES NOT TURN THE BALL OVER THIS GAME, THEY WILL BE THE SEC CHAMPIONS.

SOUTH CAROLINA WINS IF……

ü  Alshon Jeffery has an enormous day. He lit up Auburn last game for 8 catches, 190 yards, and 2 touchdowns. He will need to do the same again.

ü  They stick to the game plan. Even if Lattimore isn’t breaking off big chunks of yardage, you can not abandon the run game. You have to keep going to back to the run, in order to keep Jeffery free.

ü  They force turnovers. The Defense has to play by far the best game of the season. I don’t think you can sit back and wait on Cam to make a move. I think Ellis Johnson has to dial up some confusing looks and blitz packages.

ü  They play Turnover Free Football. Against Florida, I said USC could make 1 turnover or less. Well that was because Florida’s offense sucks worse than a Dyson Vacuum. Auburn’s Offense is nasty. USC CAN NOT TURN THE BALL OVER AT ALL.

ü  The Ol Ball Coach returns to form. Spurrier has to put together the best game plan of his career. I think the fact that he has played this game numerous times is a huge advantage for South Carolina.

Final Predictions

At the end of the day, it comes down to Stephen Garcia. If he doesn’t turn the ball over, and has a big game, I think South Carolina has its first SEC Championship. South Carolina jumps out early in this game, and Auburn makes a hell of a run in the second half. But the magical comeback luck has run out for Auburn, and they miss the field goal for the tie at the end of regulation.

                                                FINAL SCORE-   AUBURN- 28   SOUTH CAROLINA -31

-----Number 1 Thing that Pissed me OFF this Week…..

1.       The NCAA Rules Committee…

Look, I’m not hating on Cam Newton or Auburn. Auburn has handled this situation exactly the way an athletic department should handle a situation of this magnitude. And I think Cam Newton should win the Heisman for being the best football player in the country. The part that pisses me off is how bad the NCAA dropped the Ball on this matter. It comes down to one thing: MONEY. The NCAA is so afraid of the possibility of TCU playing for the National Championship, that they didn’t take the time to think out their statement before they made their final ruling. Essentially, they said that Cam Newton’s father broke the same rules that Reggie Bush’s father broke. Both Mr. Bush and Mr. Newton solicited money from a school in order for their son to play. What no one understands is this:

        --The outcome for the Bush situation: 30 lost scholarships for USC, 2 years probation.

        --The outcome for the Newton Situation: Eligible. Nothing else.

Like I said, I’m not hating, I’m glad he is playing. I WANT CAM TO PLAY. If South Carolina pulls off an upset, I would want them to pull it off against the strongest Auburn team, so there are no what ifs….

So why is he eligible? It’s really simple. In the words of Diddy, “It’s all about the Benjamin’s Baby.” TCU has 8,865 total students enrolled at its university. Auburn has 24,602. The National Championship is in Arizona this year. What are your best chances to fill an entire stadium for a National Championship? Make sure the team with the most followers and fan support has the best opportunity to make the trip. And as far as TV Ratings go, who would you rather see play: Cam Newton and Auburn vs. Oregon or TCU vs. Oregon. Now you are starting to get it……

-----Youtube Clip of the Week…..

---This week marks the annual Jimmy V memorial week. Jimmy V was a legendary coach, who to this day has raised millions of dollars for cancer research. Here is his legendary speech from the Espy Awards, weeks before he died. It is a must watch, and one of the most inspirational speeches in history. Enjoy.

     

-----Shout-Outs for the Weekend…..

·         The Pool Hall- Shout Out to the Pool Hall for supporting the Gamecocks, and hosting Patrick Davis this weekend. It should be an incredible weekend. ….

·         Magic Johnson- The guy is the longest known survivor of HIV that I know about and now he is on the verge of bringing an NFL team to LA...

·         The Victoria Secret Fashion Show- Outfits were weird as hell, but damn there were some gorgeous girls on that runway….

·         Lebron- Not only did he go back to Cleveland, but he shut up 20,000 people, put up 38, 8, and 8, and didn’t even play the 4^th quarter. Step up your Brotivation Cleveland….

·         Crandall Sims- Thanks for the shout- out this morning. You are well on your way to becoming Brotivated….

·         Matt “Broseph” Watts- Thanks for reading continuously, and spreading the word….

·         Shay Stafford, Jamison Mady, Phil Hud, Stephanie Smith, The Shaefer Welch Band, and Kanos- These are some of the residents that will be calling my place home for the weekend festivities…..

As always, it’s been a pleasure. Leave a comment if you disagree with anything I got to say, and I’ll prove to you why you are wrong….. Check in again Monday Suckazzzzz.

Here we go for this week:

College: TAKEN FROM YAHOO!

Atlanta (-3) @ TB.....Give me Da Birds -3
Indianapolis (-5) vs. Cowgirls.....Give me Da Colts -5
Patriots (-3) vs. Da Jets.....Home of Da Pats -3

WEEKEND CHOICES:

Love & Other Drugs or Faster.....Faster, love seeing the Rock dropping elbows
Yo Momma Jokes or "That's what she said".....That's what she said, Literally never gets old
Women's B-Ball or running your fingernails on a chalkboard.....Running my fingernails on a chalkboard
Letting TCU play for a NC or letting Scam Newton play.....Letting Scam Newton play
Tailgating: Gin Bucket or Good Ole Fashioned Americans.....Both

The NCAA has really backed themselves into a corner with this whole "he didn't know" so hes not in trouble crap. Do you think anyone else is going to claim the same? You bet your ass they are. Not to mention they aren't punishing Auburn since Auburn "didn't know" either. Southern Cal is ready to kill someone right now. They said the same thing with Reggie Bush. That he was acting on his own. Yet Southern Cal has a 2 year ban and is losing scholarships. Does that seem fair? Whether you want to acknowledge it or not this has EVERYTHING to do with money and ratings. The last thing the NCAA and the Networks want is TCU is in the National Championship game. So they are doing everything in their power to make sure Cam Newton plays. According to SEC rules he should be suspended but Mike Slive is no fool. He deferred to the NCAA for the ruling and of course the NCAA says he is eligible. Let me ask you this...How long did it take the NCAA to investigate what happened at UNC? The answer is they are still investigating it!! Yet somehow they conclude in basically 3 weeks that Cam Newton is clean. You are either naive or stupid if you think this isn't about the money and ratings. You heard it hear first that after they finish auditing Bobby Lowders bank they are going to find some "stuff" regarding how Auburn has been paying multiple players for years.

Joe Johnson is out 4-6 weeks bc of elbow surgery. Who cares? Not me. I wont miss his 5-18 shooting games where he disappears. Peace out Joe.

Happy Crappy Monday Volume 7.0

Happy Crappy Monday Morning……Volume 7.0 

The Thanksgiving Break is over, and now it’s on to counting down the Days until Christmas. This past weekend was an exceptionally good one for me, but I don’t know about the rest of you. Tons of things went down this weekend, and I’m going to do my best to recap what I think is the biggest moments of the weekend…..Happy Crappy Monday Morning Skeezers….

1.     I’ll accept your Apology Anytime Clemson……

First, let me begin by saying that anytime Clemson wants to call me and apologize, I’m willing to accept. My perfect prediction record comes to an end this past weekend, because I obviously game the Tigers too much credit. If you missed the prediction, A)Step your game up, and B) you can check it out by Clicking Here.

I tried to give the Tigers the benefit of the doubt, saying that they will put up 21 points. Well, other than a blown assignment by the South Carolina secondary, the Tigers couldn’t see the End Zone without Binoculars.

Yea, so they held the 18 year old Man-Child Laittimore under 100 yards Rushing. But how much credit can I actually give Clemson, considering Lattimore only carried the Ball 4 times in the second half. Why risk an injury to a Stud in a scrimmage?

I was right about thing this weekend. Alshon Jeffery yet again did his thing, in an “off night” for Jeffery, he pulled in 5 receptions, for 140 yards and a TD.

So Clemson, Text me, Email me, Hit me up on Facebook or Twitter, becauseI’ll be accepting apologies up until Thursday, at which point this matter is too small for me to worry about. Remember, the Gamecock Season isn’t over yet, we got a little thing called an SEC Championship to play for…..

2.     What a Weekend for College Football…..

I sat back and thought long on this, and I am going to say that this past weekend was the best college football weekend I have ever witnessed. I decided to take it easy Saturday night, and watch the Nevada vs. Boise State game. Turned out to be the best Football game I have ever watched. The game was an instant classic, and if you missed it, def. take some time to check it out.

3.     Stevie Johnson, you are Blaming the Wrong Person Bro….

So if you don’t know Stevie Johnson is, don’t worry you aren’t alone. But Stevie is about to become well known. The guy plays for the Buffalo Bills, in the NFL. Let me give you a quick recap on the Bills Season… They suck. But players still make Millions, and live a great life. Well, Johnson had a rough game yesterday. He dropped 5 passes, in a close game. But his 5^th drop was in the end zone for a game winning TD in OT. Here is who he had to Blame:

So you’re blessed with enough talent to make it to the National Football League. God has blessed you with a salary of $400,000 annually to play a GAME that you love. You need to check yourself Stevie, you’re messing with bigger issues than dropping a TD….

4.     The NEW Taylor Swift…..

I’m digging the new hair, keep it that way….

5.     Finally, the Boise State Talk is all Over….

I don’t want to take anything away from Nevada, they played a great game. But finally this game should put an end to all the critics who say that Boise State could hang week in and week out in the SEC. They have 2 tough games a year, and went 1-1 in those games. You can blame it on their place kicker if you want, but it wasn’t that guys fault. The fact is, you as a Boise State fan had made yourself delusional, thinking you were unstoppable. The funny part is during your tailgating Saturday; you were pulling for Bama to beat Auburn. But the fact of the matter is, the closest thing you’ll get to the BCS National Title game is sitting Indian style in front of your 42’ Plasma….

6.     Cortland Finnegan vs. Andre Johnson

If you missed this, it is a must see. Cortland Finnegan has gone on record saying he wants to be the dirtiest player in the game. What floats your boat Cortland, just be careful who you pick a fight with. Cortland pushed Andre to the limit Sunday, and Andre Johnson snapped. It is going to cost the guy a nice chunk of change, and maybe even a suspension. Number 1, shame on Andre for taking the bait, and getting ejected. On the other hand, there was only 7:00 minutes left in the 4^th Quarter, and Finnegan deserved a beating… Check it out.

7.     Auburn Jumps to Number 1 in the BCS

Is this supposed to be surprising? Auburn plays in the SEC. They have a tough game week in and week out. They have beat LSU, Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, and South Carolina already this season. They deserve to be Number 1. And besides, South Carolina would rather them be a Number 1 team. After all, the school is 3-0 this season when facing a Number 1 team…


8.     BIG Dilemma

Come on really, the North Carolina vs. Kentucky Basketball game is the Saturday of the SEC Championship game? It would be a perfect sports day, if I wasn’t going to the SEC game. But since I am, it looks like the tailgate spot has to be set up with Satellite in position before the 12:30 tip off. I know it is early, but let’s be honest, this is always a game to watch.

9.     Happy Anniversary Tiger Woods

On this day last year, you had just caught a beating from your extremely hot, but not too hot to cheat on apparently wife. You got busted for dropping non golf related Hole in One’s when on your weekend tournament trips. Although you say that things worked out all for the better, I can’t help but wonder why a guy making roughly $100 million a year wouldn’t think to open up a second cell phone line, or even put the PIN CODE on your Iphone? Unless you were purposely trying to get caught, you have to be one of the dumbest Bro’s around….

10.     The Top 10 in the Top 10

Here it is, dedicated to the faithful GAMECOCKS who will be traveling to the ATL this weekend: Here is the TOP 10 MUST VISIT BARS, RESTARUANTS, AND ESTABLISHEMENTS YOU MUST VISIT WHILE IN ATL…. 

1.     THE CLERMONT LOUNGE- It is odd, it is in the basement of a Hotel, and it CAN be the most fun you’ll ever have. The key to this place… make sure you are HAMMERED before you enter. The Lounge is where Strippers go to retire. Make sure you buy canned beer, and make sure you get your can crushed for a dollar between the Boobs of a certain Stripper…TRUE STORY

2.     THE TAVERN AT PHIPPS – Amazing Food, Amazing Atmosphere, Amazing scenery. A great spot for a nice dinner and a couple of drinks before you go out on the town. Dress classy, and don’t expect to order a PBR. Keep your eyes open, because along with the gorgeous wait staff, you might see a couple of celebs enjoying a meal.

3.     5 PACES ATLANTA- Do you like Hole in the Wall Bars? Cheap Drinks? A Great DJ? Look no further than 5 Paces Atlanta. Guaranteed to be packed every night, and expect to relive your college days. Make sure you Ask for Tribble, and make sure you tell him Jason Shannon Sent you…

4.     PINK PONY-The Ultimate in late night Gentlemen Entertainment. The daughters of the elite in ATL line the stage of the Pony each and every night. Expect to pay a $2 “Parking Fee”, a $10 entry Fee, and $10 dances all night. KEEP YOUR GAME TICKET THOUGH, ALL GENTLEMEN ESTABLISHMENTS IN ATL ALLOW FREE ENTRY WITH A GAMEDAY TICKET. You can thank the Gamecocks for yet again for making it to the SEC Championship game.

5.     JOHNNY’S HIDEAWAY – One word for this Bar “COUGAR”. That’s right boys, all the Cougars you can ask for. Be prepared to walk in the bar and literally feel like a piece of meat. Go late night, doesn’t start to become fun until 1:45ish. Be sure to check with Butch for drinks, has a very heavy hand! And fellas, you should be ashamed of yourself for having no game if you have to open a tab.

6.     THE IVY –I Have already reviewed this place last Monday, but I recommend hitting it up. I myself will be there Friday night. Great Music, Damn good Scenery, and Talent. Dress it up, this ain’t the redneck bar down the street.

7.     FADO IRISH PUB- A great Irish pub right down town. Make sure to get there early, this is more of a Pre-Game, first drink kind of place. Also, the secret to this place is the upstairs rooftop Bar. It is on the third floor, but don’t worry, there are Bathrooms, Couches, Fireplaces, and TV’s up there. A nice spot to start the night off.

8.     EAST ANDREWS ATLANTA- A great atmosphere, almost like a small city inside a large building. There are multiple different bars inside, with the option to listen to live acoustic, or party in the courtyard to a DJ. Check it out, and enjoy.

9.     SHOUT& TWIST- Both places are Tapas Bars, with great food and drinks. Make sure you check out the Sushi menu, it is on point.

10.     STATS- If you don’t have a ticket to the game, there is a sports bar walking distance from The Dome. It has a great rooftop, and tons of TV’s. Also has your own personal beer tap on your table. BUT BE WARNED, taps are pressure sensitive. They charge you each time you touch the thing, TRUST ME.

Leave me your thoughts and comments on the facebook post…. See you all Friday morning Suckazzzzzz.
