Buzzmaster (9:38 PM)
On Monday, we've got a cool special guest stopping by when MLB President and Chief Operating Officer Bob DuPuy will take your questions. Be sure to stop by, as it all begins with me, Buzz, at 10 a.m. ET!
Buzzmaster (10:00 AM)
Anyone tries to put a beret on me, we're going to have issues.
BJ (Carmel, NY)
Tiger and Federer...twas a good Sunday.
Elin Woods' husband
I win again. I always do. Can't make the chat today. I'm sleeping next to my knockout wife and counting my money later. See ya, suckers.
Steph(Cincy)
Buzz, I love a beret on a man
Clay (Charlotte)
Morning Buzz, first and foremost I want to apologize for any rude comments that might have gotten sent in during last night's NBA game with my name on them. I may or may not have had too much to drink.
Godish (Chicago)
I enjoyed The Hangover very much, and I'll probably see it again soon.
Ben (Charlotte)
Let's start this chat off in typical ESPN fashion: Brett Favre had arthroscopic surgery over the weekend.
Rob (Portland, OR)
WHining about goal-tending will sommence in 5...4...3..2..(points to computer monitor)
Marc, Charlotte
Good Monday Morning to everyone. I'm going on no sleep today. Always a great way to start the week.
tom* (parkville, md)
We have a meeting tomorrow morning at 10am. I'm not sure if it's more important than the premiere of Morning Buzz 2.0. We're only discussing budget and jobs and the future and stuff.
Buzzmaster (10:01 AM)
The future of the Morning Buzz?
Robbi (Clinton Ky)
Good morning. Graet weekend. Caught 17 fish Saturday. Fun stuff.
Gillette CEO
Our razor's make you win.
J.B. (Dunmore, PA)
I've always been partial to the Raspberry Beret.
J.B. (Dunmore, PA)
Good morning Buzz Nation. I had the best Saturday at Yankee Stadium that a $20K salary guy could ever want. Four words: Pan Fried Cookie Dough.
Efrain (Bayonne NJ)
Pretty cool that one of the birds won the Belmont
Robert (Raleigh NC)
Wow ESPN had a good deay yesterday. All of your guys chosen ones had good days.
Pete (NC)
How bout them Tar Heels? Four straight College World Series. Now let's just win this time.
Christian (High Point, NC) [via mobile]
That Tiger fellow isn't too shabby, huh?
Clinton (Indianapolis)
Good morning, folks! Hope everyone had a good weekend!
Drew (Buffalo)
I'm on vacation allllll weeek. its a beautiful thing.
Buzzmaster (10:03 AM)
And you're starting it here? Must be the economy.
Robert (Raleigh NC)
As an East Carolina Alum, I do not approve Pete's comment.
Marc, Charlotte
I'd like to thank Pete for correctly spelling Tar Heels. Two words folks. Capital T, Capital H.
Buzzmaster (10:04 AM)
If it's football, don't forget the L.
Christian (High Point, NC) [via mobile]
Does UNC even realize that ECU exists?
Efrain (Bayonne NJ)
OOOH vacation in Buffalo...color me jealous
Neal (Philly)
Why are you awake, Drew?
Matt (IN)
I'm here but I've got nothing to bring to the table, which is no different than any other day
Drew (Buffalo)
Still recovering from the amazing weekend in Toronto, Buzz. Gimme a break!
Godish (Chicago)
Is that Drew Bledsoe from Buffalo?
Ben (Charlotte)
That's what you do when you are on vacation in Buffalo, Buzz.
Clay (Charlotte)
It's not the economy Buzz, MB is like crack. We all know it's bad for us and will probably cost us our job, but we just can't stop.
Marc, Charlotte
As a UNC alum. I approve.
Sledge (Bham, AL)
Buzz, I spent Friday Night in New Orleans. I woke up Saturday morning in an employee only closet. I have no regrets.
Buzzmaster (10:06 AM)
Where were you that keeps its employees in a closet?
Nate (Madison)
Went and saw The Hangover last night, it was great. I actually didn't feel that hungover after Saturday night after seeing it.
Robert (Raleigh NC)
I like the MB and all, but on my days off, sorry. Not here.
BBaker (Grand Rapids)
Someone told me about this chat a while ago. Hello Buzzmaster.
Joe (Huntsville,AL)
Tar Heels= a person with dirty feet. We call that Wal Mart feet down here.
BJ (Carmel, NY)
Buffalo happens to be quite nice this time of year...
Buzzmaster (10:07 AM)
Not a phrase you hear often.
Andy Bernard
Whatever happens in Buffalo, stays in Buffalo.
Robert (Raleigh NC)
FACT: Nate and Brian thought the movie was about them.
Robert (Raleigh NC)
Great job representing UNC Marc with that sentence fragment. Prepositional phrases aren't complete sentences.
Greg (Boston)
Clay, speak for yourself...I never have a problem not logging in when I'm on vacation, or find anything better to do for that matter
Clay (Charlotte)
Oh, my mother stepped on a nail yesterday while helping my dad build a deck. She decided that since she lost a lot of blood that it was a good time to get drunk, since she would not have to drink so much...yes, this is the woman that raised me.
Ed Hochuli (Chat Ref)
That's illegal use of the hands against BJ for trying to say that Buffalo is nice, 10 yards and it is 2nd down
Steve (Cleveland)
How good of weeks do some of these college baseball players have. Dustin Ackley for example hit a home run yesterday to help sen his team to the college world series, will get drafted #2 overall tomorrow in the draft, and will then fly to Omaha and win a World Series. Envy.
Efrain (Bayonne NJ)
I'm dying to watch The Hangover...I need soem laughter right about now
Christian (High Point, NC) [via mobile]
"Great job representing UNC Marc with that sentence fragment." is a sentence fragment.
Buzzmaster (10:09 AM)
North Carolina grammar fight!
J.B. (Dunmore, PA)
I like Buffalo served on a bun with some ketchup. Much better for you than regular beef.
Joe (Huntsville,AL)
Went to a place Friday night that served Kobe beef sloppy joes. NOt sure that I approve.
Clinton (Indianapolis)
North Carolina grammar fight? There's a joke in there somewhere.
Nate (Madison)
Wouldn't drinking thin her blood, thus making her actually bleed more?
BBaker (Grand Rapids)
Maybe the cause of her stepping on the nail was her drunkeness...which might not even me a word.
CAL (St. Paul, MN)
Clay's mom sounds like she would fit in well in the MB.
Rob (Portland, OR)
If we're going to police each others' grammar in here, I'm going to go watch paint dry somewhere.
tom* (parkville, md)
I think replay will shoe that BJ should not have received that penalty.
Greg (Boston)
Almost everywhere tends to be at least somewhat nice this time of year, at least in the Northern Hemisphere, not exactly a selling point
Ben (Charlotte)
The typical North Carolina grammar: whether it's "tradin' paint" or "tradun' paint"
Frank ((Boston))
Was the sloppy joe $100?
BJ (Carmel, NY)
Doesnt that defeat the purpose of Kobe Beef?
J.B. (Dunmore, PA)
Nice in Buffalo. Grammar fights in NC. Very funny material today, Buzz Nation.
Buzzmaster (10:12 AM)
We could be talking Favre surgery ...
Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)
Yeah, Christian, but Robert spent a lot less learning how to use sentence fragments at ECU than Marc spent for the same education at UNC.
tom* (parkville, md)
$5 says the white paint dries faster than the red paint.
Brian (Madison, WI)
I went to a bar on Friday night and didn't drink and played pickup volleyball for a few hours. It was surprisingly fun.
tony (harlem, Ny)
First and foremost Dana you look beautiful today as always
Buzzmaster (10:13 AM)
Thank you
NHL
Hey guys, remember me?
Robert (Raleigh NC)
I approve of Tom's comment.
Brett Favre
YEAH, let's talk about me for a while.
Efrain (Bayonne NJ)
Tony took the wrong fork in the road
Dana Jacobson (the other room)
Psst Tony, it's the next door to the left
Neal (Philly)
Brian just caused hell to freeze over with that comment.
Kev (NYC)
Umm I went to Newport this weekend and had a 2 lb Lobster stuffed w/ Ritz Crackers, Scallops & Shrimp with an 8oz. fillet...Get jealous, it was that good.
Buzzmaster (10:14 AM)
Is that like an aquatic turducken?
NC People
Hay, at lest we are not from Soth Carolina!
tom* (parkville, md)
Hell being frozen is one of the reasons Buffalo is so nice right now.
Christian (High Point, NC) [via mobile]
I wasn't trying to start a grammar fight, just quoting the Simpsons: "'Sentence fragment' is a sentence fragment"
Efrain (Bayonne NJ)
Why would they stuff ritz crackers into a lobster?
Ben (Charlotte)
Lobster = cockroach of the sea.
Clinton (Indianapolis)
Ritz crackers, scallops, and shrimp. One of these things is not like the other...
Buzzmaster (10:16 AM)
Shrimp? Doesn't end in s.
Clay (Charlotte)
They used a $4 pack of crackers to stuff lobster...that's kinda dumb.
Nate (Madison)
I love fish and few other seafood items but crawfish, lobster, and crabs freak me out. They look like insects of the sea so I find it hard to eat them.
Joe (Huntsville,AL)
Madden is branching out the turducken into the Lobscaimp
Kev (NYC)
It was baked with Ritz Crackers inside...think of the possibilities
Steph(Cincy)
Lobster is just to much work. I don't want to eat anything that requires me to wear a bib.
Tom (River North)
Ritz crackers? And I thought crawfish were the cockroaches of the sea...
BJ (Carmel, NY)
Ritz crackers go with anything...that is a crazy combo, but Im not doubting its greatness.
Inigo Montoya
Humiliations galore!!
Christian (High Point, NC) [via mobile]
Wait, there was an 8 oz filet stuffed into the lobster?
Robert (Raleigh NC)
I prefer Saltines in my Lobster, but hey, whatever works for you.
Bill Cosby
What's about the pudding? No JELLO pudding in the aquatic turducken? Frizzle frazzle.
Ben (Charlotte)
Someone told me lobsters scream when you put them in boiling water. That's funny.
Greg (Boston)
Lobster is just a giant sea insect, no thanks
Buzzmaster (10:18 AM)
And pigs roll around in you know what. Doesn't mean I'm passing on the pork chops.
Tom (Cleveland)
Whenever Futurama is on, that lobster guy Zoidberg looks mighty tasty.
Clay (Charlotte)
Breadcrumbs or cornmeal would have been a much better choice.
Maitiu (DC)
I could go for that McD's Lobster role right about now... that's GIN-U-INE claw meat!
Christian (High Point, NC) [via mobile]
I'm the opposite of Steph. I love food I have to rip apart with my hands and teeth. Ribs, lobster, bison, crab, etc.
Efrain (Bayonne NJ)
I didn't know what a soft shell crab sandwich was until the brought out a sandwich with the entire crab between a roll...let's just say, I just had drinks that day
Neal (Philly)
I don't like eating crab legs because I don't feel like doing extra work to get to the meat.
Clinton (Indianapolis)
Ben, you wouldn't find it very funny if you ever had to hear that scream. That's why you put them in room temperature water, then heat it up to boiling.
Kev (NYC)
The fillet wasn't stuffed inside Christian...But I think you may be on to something.
Robbi (Clinton Ky)
I thought crawfish lived in fresh water.
J (Ohio)
Steph, as a fellow Cincinnatian, I'm calling shenannigans on your bib comment. I've worn bibs proudly at Skyline as well as Montgomery Inn.
Ben (Charlotte)
Crawfish are the cockroaches of fresh water.
Zoidberg (Futurama)
Woop woop woop woop!
Frank (Boston)
When my family has lobster for dinner, we have lobster races to see which one gets cooked first, the lobsters never learn.
Buzzmaster (10:19 AM)
Or win
Ben (Charlotte)
Pigs don't eat the you-know-what. Lobsters do.
Christian (High Point, NC) [via mobile]
Fact: In the late 19th century, Butlers in Boston had it written in their contract that they wouldn't be served lobster more than 3 times a week. Apparently that was before butter was invented.
Maitiu (DC)
People who are disparaging the lobster have obviously never known it's greatness.
Homer (Springfield)
(To Marge and the Kids) I think I am the only one that should eat Pinchy. Pinchy would want have wanted it that way.
BJ (Carmel, NY)
Did I catch a Bison in there?
Neal (Philly)
I never thought I'd see a Zoidberg quote in the MB.
Godish (Chicago)
I'd rather eat a skunk than Skyline.
Buzzmaster (10:21 AM)
What's stuffed in the skunk?
Greg (Boston)
Buzz doesn't pass on cheap pork chops but does pass on free steak...Interesting
tom* (parkville, md [via desktop])
Maybe we should sent the lobsters to UNC.
Maitiu (DC)
Bonus from the recession: Lobster prices have come down!
BJ (Carmel, NY)
I think its safe to say any animal you eat has at least one horrific quality to them...
Ben (Charlotte)
Fact: the lobster things at Long John Silver's aren't real lobster. Same phylum, different species.
BBaker (Grand Rapids)
I could go for a McRib Those were the days.
Drew (Buffalo)
too much food talk in here, I'm gettin hungry...
Greg (Boston)
I live in Boston, Maitiu, obviously I tried lobster at some point, it really isn't all that good
Kev (NYC)
Maitiu's comment was both Zen and Intelligent...Well done.
Nate (Madison)
Mahi Mahi or walleye fillet's, that's where it's at.
Clay (Charlotte)
Cows eat something, throw it back up and chew it again. But I'm not passing on the ribeye.
Clay (Charlotte)
Ben I wouldn't bet on most of the food at LJS.
Christian (High Point, NC) [via mobile]
For lunch I'm now thinking a 2 pound lobster stuffed with an 8oz filet stuffed with a crab-shrimp gratin. And a diet coke.
Brian (Madison, WI)
mmmm.......McRib.......
Robert (Raleigh NC)
Well isn't this an interesting discussion...
J (Ohio)
McRib is the greatest sandwich McDonalds has ever bestowed upon our great planet.
Buzzmaster (10:23 AM)
Better than the McDLT?
Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)
Mmmmmmmm, calamari. Just thought I'd throw my favorite sea critter in there.
Steve (Cleveland)
Any seafood talk in the ONB?
Mark(HOF City)
The is nothing horrific about bacon. Ham, maybe. Bacon, NO!
tom* (parkville, md [via desktop])
There is no such thing as too much food talk in the Buzzchat.
Robert (Raleigh NC)
I'll take some fried shrimp and oysters and I'm golden.
J.B. (Dunmore, PA)
The McDLT was an underrated sandwich.
chaz (sa tx)
mcrib= lefotover horse with sauce. it all about the roayl with cheese
Kev (NYC)
In Cape Cod they have Deep-fried Lobster Ice cream...Yes, it's actual Lobster
Mike (Happy Valley, Pa)
Orange Ruffy or Veal Oscar topped with Crab meat.....mmmm!
Ed Hochuli (Chat Ref)
We have two penalities. Starting lunch chat to early on Clinton 5 yards, that is declined. We also have 10 yards, posting more than 5 times on a cell, on Clinton. Still 2nd down.
Dave (Detroit)
So we got the NHL and NBA finals going on and we get... lobster and McRib talk. Way to go, Buzz.
Buzzmaster (10:25 AM)
Whatever will you do, Dave.
Travis (Braham, MN)
Really? Seafood chat? I swear if someone posts a Forrest Gump shrimp quote, I'm outta here. *contemplating posting a Forrest Gump quote so I have an excuse to leave*
Rich (Douglas AK)
I'm down for the Krusty Ribwich, in fact the Ribwich tour starts in Salem Oregon and I'm following it all summer long.
Neal (Philly)
I don't remember a McDLT. What was it?
Buzzmaster (10:27 AM)
The one with two compartments, one for the hot side, one for cold side.
Maitiu (DC)
I also have work going on, Dave, but I'm not complaining about the subject matter.
Robert (Raleigh NC)
Over Under on the number of Forrest Gump shrimp quotes just to annoy Travis is 8.
Christian (High Point, NC) [via mobile]
Don't worry, since there's three weeks between games we'll have plenty of time to discuss the NBA Finals.
Clinton (Indianapolis)
Ed, you may want to review the tape. I believe this all started with Kev's post about what he ate this weekend.
Sledge (Bham, AL)
If no one else will, then i will. Shrimp Gumbo, Shrimp Stew, Shrimp Kabobs.
CAL (St. Paul, MN)
Please excuse Travis' comment. There is still three feet of snow in Braham so he's a little cranky.
Greg (Boston)
Dave, Lakers are killing the Magic, Detroit is killing the Pens...There ya go...No back to your regularly schedule tomfoolery sponsored by the McRib and Pop tarts
Maitiu (DC)
The McDLT is only the bestest most wonderful invention of mankind in the past 100 years.
Kev (NYC)
Dave: The NBA finals are a bore and you onlu care about the NHL because you're in Detroit...Lobster is Lobster!
Bob (Boston)
Recently our friends Zach Rastall (Marinette, WI) and Steiny (NYC) left this chat for good. So that asks the question. Who do you guys miss more. Zach or Steiny?
Buzzmaster (10:28 AM)
Favre?
Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)
Ah, the old fashion non-biodegradable styrofoam containers. The best part of the McDLT.
J (Ohio)
McDLT > Penecillin. Only on the Morning Buzz.
Neal (Philly)
BBQ shrimp, shrimp cocktail, shrimp scampi, coconut shrimp
J.B. (Dunmore, PA)
Greg: To be fair, Detroit only killed the Pens in one game and I wouldn't exactly call yesterday's Laker win a slaughter.
Robert (Raleigh NC)
I'd go with the Car, but ok Maitiu.
Buzzmaster (10:29 AM)
I'm going with the DVR. I don't need my car if I have a DVR.
Nate (Madison)
Buzz, NOOOOOOOOOOO. You mentioned the name of he who shall not be named!.
Robert (Raleigh NC)
I'm voting Steiny. The chat where he posted from each name claiming they were different people and Buzz kept responding with the other name = a classic MB. I'd rank it top 5 of all time.
Clinton (Indianapolis)
Isn't that like asking if we miss a root canal or kick to the groin more?
Clay (Charlotte)
Oh, I forgot, I have to give Brian props for the poptart comment during the chat last night. Well done.
CAL (St. Paul, MN)
I miss getting the flu more than Steinymerms or Zach.
Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)
J: I'm pretty sure Nate enjoys a healthy dose of penicillin every once in a while. Those foreign viruses can be tough to shake.
Steve (Cleveland)
McDLT - The McDLT (McDonald's Lettuce and Tomato) was served with mustard, ketchup, pickles, sliced onions, lettuce, cheese, and two tomato slices.
Maitiu (DC)
I miss the sytrofoam containers, they made great tanks, when I was a kid.
Kev (NYC)
I'd call the Lakers win a slaughter for ABC and anyone who's remotely interested in quality basketball.
Dave(vt)
Homer: "I will have you most expensive food stuffed with your second most expensive food." Waiter: "Ah yes, lobster stuffed with tacos. An excellent choice sir!"
Maitiu (DC)
Wasn't the first car invented in the 1880s? I said the past 100 years.
Dave (Detroit)
Yes. The first car was invited in the 1880s and they still drive it in Cuba.
Robert (Raleigh NC)
I thought it was 1975.....
Mark(HOF City )
For best invention, I think I will go with the internet. Without it, this chat would not be near as exciting.
Buzzmaster (10:32 AM)
We could just hold it on short wave radio.
Scott (Brewtown)
Ahhh...1975. The year Robert got sent to the pen
Steph(Cincy)
Worst invention: elastic waist bands
Clay (Charlotte)
I'm going to defer to Clinton about anything invented in the last 100 years.
Joe (Huntsville,AL)
Oh in the past 100 years? Then we're obviously talking about the Snuggie.
Lamar Odom (LA)
Candy anyone! It works for me.
Travis (Braham, MN)
I think the best invention was the E.T. for Atari
Clay (Charlotte)
Morse Code ONB?
Tom (River North)
Least exciting invention: sliced bread. I have no problem eating hunks of bread. Who needs slices?
Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)
A discussion of best invention of the past 100 years and no Clinton-is-old jokes yet? For shame, MB!
Mark(HOF City )
Take a look in here, Buzz. How many people do you think would know how to operate a short-wave radio???
chaz (sa tx)
best invention= indoor plumbing. no queestion about it
Sliced Bread
Ahem, what about me fellas. I'm the Buzzmaster of the food world.
ShamWow Guy (Infomercial)
The best invention has to be the ShamWow.... it's from Germany so you know it is good!
J.B. (Dunmore, PA)
This chat would be good on a CB. We could all have handles that reflect our personalities. Like Brian can be called Boozer Loser and so forth.
Drew (Buffalo)
Saw a guy walking down the street in Toronto with a gigantic bag full of ShamWows. I had no idea what was going on,but I liked it.
Buzzmaster (10:35 AM)
He was going to drain Lake Ontario in hopes of finding lobsters.
Adam(Maryland)
Best invention: Infomercials which in turn promote the most amazing inventions out there....Shamwow!Set it and forget it!
Clinton (Indianapolis)
George Carlin has a great joke about the phrase "the greatest thing since sliced bread," and I can't repeat it here. Maybe I'll put it on the facebook wall.
Maitiu (DC)
Indoor plumbing was available in ancient Rome, so...no.
J (Ohio)
Best Invention of the last 100 years? Riding Lawn mowers.
Wingo (Deptford, NJ)
I hate the Internet. I can't believe I actually had to explain the NHL's 35-and-older clause in their CBA. I bet the only people who know that information are me and the lawyers who wrote the NHL's CBA. I'm ready to gouge my eyes out.
Sledge (Bham, AL)
Without Sliced bread, we couldn't have the McRib. Think abou tthat next time Tom (River North)
Rubber Duck
We got us a CONVOY!!!!!!!!
Zach (Bloomington,MN)
Best Invention= Bacon, hands down!!
Brian (Madison, WI)
Boozer Loser? I'm offended, I may be a boozer, but I sir am not a loser.
Billy Mays (ESPN 360)
Best invention is espn 360. See buzz, i plugged both at the same time!
Marc, Charlotte
Isn't the McRib served on a hoagie roll?
Wingo (Deptford, NJ)
A guy walking around with a bag full of ShamWows can't possibly be up to any good. Who would need that kind of absorbing power?
Steve (Cleveland)
The McRib was on a bun, Buns aren't sliced, they are just two different pieces of bun
Buzzmaster (10:37 AM)
You, sir, are clearly not a baker.
Robert (Raleigh NC)
In other news, Toronto is now suffering from a drought.
J (Ohio)
Can you actually invent Bacon? It's always been around, hasn't it? Just waiting to be cooked?
Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)
Brian's not a loser. He's just a guy who gets drunk all the time, doesn't remember the night before, can't make up his mind about anything, and has his sisters with him in every Facebook profile photo he's ever had. Does that make him a loser? I think not!
Rich Rod (Ann Arbor)
People that eat McRibs need to get a life.
Steve (Cleveland)
He could just be a swim team coach, shamwows are also used as towels by the highest swimming professionals.
Buzzmaster (10:38 AM)
The highest swimming professionals? Even ... nah, too easy.
Marc, Charlotte
Has anyone else seen the new Magic Bullet informercial? It's the new Bullett Express. Buzz, it could save you lots of time when you're throwing a party at the Buzzmansion.
Wingo (Deptford, NJ)
The highest swimming professionals? I like Michael Phelps for the block, Wink....
Ben (Charlotte)
Haha highest swimming professionals.
Rich Rod ( Empty Stadium)
People who need inventions to capture mollusks need to get lives.
Maitiu (DC)
I've always wondered the same thing about the wheel. Who invents a cirlce?
BBaker (Grand Rapids)
Note my last name. One bun per one McRib. It is called a sliced bun!
Tom (Cleveland)
So that's why Michigan football stinks. Rich Rod is too busy hanging out in random sports chats talking about the McRib samwich.
Steve (Cleveland)
I'm weary of facebooking the MB, puttings names with faces is frightening.
Greg (Boston)
Isn't it amazing what we eat though...Some dude once looked at a pigs butt and decided, hey, i bet that'd be tasty...Fascinating, really
BJ (Carmel, NY)
HIgh...swimming...I got it.
Maitiu (DC)
Any chance the GI Joe movie will end with a PSA about how knowing is half the battle?
Jay (NY)
I walked into a shellfish chat? My allergies do not approve.
Scott (Brewtown)
It's clearly a Monday. It took 3 posts on the 'highest' swimming professional for me to get it. Brain is still sleeping
Robert (Raleigh NC)
The MB Facebook (created by your truly) is like this place 24-7, just unedited. I think I can say for everyone in there, it is a much higher success than we all expected.
Clay (Charlotte)
BJ, he who laughs last thinks slowest.
Mike (DC)
I was trying to decide whether to buy the complete Duckman series or the complete the Critic series but then I realized I would have to explain this to my wife.
Buzzmaster (10:42 AM)
Still better than buying the director's cut of Howard the Duck.
Greg (Boston)
I don't often visit the Facebook site, but when I do it is far less interesting without Buzz as the filter
Joe (Huntsville,AL)
The MB Facebook page is helpful like the wanted posters at the post office are helpful. Need to know who to stay away from if you see them.
Greg (Boston)
Dude, Howard the Duck was fricken awesomesauce times 100
Clay (Charlotte)
Go with Duckman, the Critic they pretty much just stole a bunch of people's stand up sets.
Jay Sherman (NYC)
Mike's wife stinks!
Maitiu (DC)
The Critic is notable for telling us that, no, penguins can't fly!
Buzzmaster (10:43 AM)
C'mon, Bloom County told us that.
Joe (Huntsville,AL)
Still can't believe she slept with the duck
Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)
Speaking of Facebook, congrats to Joe for his induction into the MB Hall of Fame. Outstanding work!
Brian (Madison, WI)
I do have to agree that the MB Facebook has been a success. I still haven't been brave enough to accept friend requests from fellow chatters yet. I believe that day will come though.
Alan (Indianapolis)
Lea thompson crimped hair. Yikes.
tom* (parkville, md [via desktop])
WKRP in Cincinnati taught us that turkeys can't fly.
J (Ohio)
Howard the Duck is one of the best 'awesomely bad' movies of all time. Up there with Deathrace 2000 and Over The Top.
chaz (sa tx)
* sings song" howard the duck, YEA, howard the duck"
EFrain (Bayonne NJ)
Alan knows what crimped hair is. Yikes
Robert (Raleigh NC)
Joe was a long time coming. Consistently the best and funniest poster here.
Greg (Boston)
The fact that this chat has a hall of fame makes the 7 years I've spent coming here feel that much more ridiculous
Marc, Charlotte
There is a MB Hall of Fame? Is there actually criteria to get inducted?
Buzzmaster (10:45 AM)
Use steroids. Lots of steroids.
Clay (Charlotte)
Woah, woah, woah...we will not have anyone talking bad about Sly movies.
Tim (NYC)
Bad duck movies and no one mentions the Mighty Ducks 2? Oh wait, this is ESPN owned by Disney, I forgot.
Brett Favre (Gulfport, Miss.)
How come you guys aren't talking about me?
Alan (Indianapolis)
yep, my sister crimped her hair for a time in middle school
Dave (Detroit)
I heard Buzz was almost inducted but he didn't get enough votes because of performance-enhancing Pop-Tarts.
BBaker (Grand Rapids)
Whoa, theres a MB Facebook? whats next a twit... nope not gonna say it.
Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)
There's plenty of twits in here BBaker.
J (Ohio)
Sorry. Any movie that's plot centers around a trucker / armwrestler trying to win his son's love by winning an armwrestling competition automatically qualifies as 'awesomely bad'.
Steve (Cleveland)
I've had this argument far too many times and have never backed down. The best Mighty Ducks movie is D2, followed by D1, and then D3, thich was awfulsauce
Joe (Huntsville,AL)
My brother and I had the Over the Top arm wrestling thing. Always ended bad.
Alan (Indianapolis)

Amazingly clinton hasn't used awesomesauce yet!
Efrain (Bayonne NJ)
There were so many things wrong with that Howard the Duck movie
Tom (River North)
How come no one has mentioned Duck Tales yet?

At least D3 was believeable. D1 you have the kids who can't skate that suddenly win a state title thanks to a team getting the measels? And then, that same team a year later is the best junior team in the world? Come on....
J (Ohio)
Which of the duck cartoons had Dobber from Coach as the pilot? Launchpad McQuack i think his name was.

Hockey Died when the Mighty Ducks Changed their names to just the ducks.

Thanks to my New Orleans trip and tons of convincing shot girls... I will be feasting on a coule of Wendy's double stacks. Keeping lunch under 3 dollars todya.
Nate (Madison)
The fact I can still remember most if not all of Ducktales' theme song disturbs me.
Brian (Madison, WI)
Whoa, they introduced the McRib here? I knew we were awesome, but that just solidifies it.
Greg (Boston)
Duck is a little too sweet a meat for my lunch tastes, so I'm going with Roast beef instead

Scrooge McDuck would have died horiffically had he actually taken a 30 foot springboard dive into a pile of gold coins. Just saying.
Alan (Indianapolis)
from crustaceans to pork to duck. we've really circled the meats today.
AntBaLL (Lewisville GA)
Brett Favre only great at throwing interceptions and giving teams false hope. Seem to lead in interecptions yearly
Buzzmaster (10:54 AM)

Sledge (Bham, AL)
*slow clap* for Buzz. Well played sir.
Mike Golic

I'm calling shenanigans on Mario Batali. He would know that it's called Kitchen Stadium, not Iron Chef Stadium.

J (Ohio)
Fact: I ate squirrell stew this past spring.
Brian (Madison, WI)
Small and quick squirrels? Obviously Buzz hasn't seen Wisconsin squirrels, they are little fatties.
Mike (DC)
Up is kinda sad at first. Not really for kids.
Ben (Charlotte)
I used to hunt squirrel. Surprisingly difficult to shoot.
Buzzmaster (10:58 AM)
Especially while turning in circles and navigating the Oregon Trail.
Robbi (Clinton Ky)
squirrel=tree rat
Scott (Brewtown)
A squirrel is nothing more than a rat with a fluffy tail
Ed Hochuli (Chat Ref)
15 yard penalty on Buzz, for allowing this chat to get out of control. Loss of down. 3rd down
Marc, Charlotte
Fresh sweet corn. Slice it off the cob. Butter in a pan. Drop the corn in. Saute for a bit, add some fresh basil. I like mine to still have some bite to the corn.
Marc, Charlotte
I do believe Molto Mario reruns can be found on the Fine Living Channel.

Everything's Fatter in Wisconsin.
Tom (Cleveland)
Everything is fatter in Wisconsin.

Zach (Bloomington,MN)
Up is an adult's kid movie
Buzzmaster (11:00 AM)
Better than a kid's adult movie

15 yard penalty on Ed for assuming Buzz ever had control of this chat. Still 3rd down.
J.B. (Dunmore, PA)
Wait, Up is sad? How can a Pixar film start out sad?

Under the sea turducken, steak, pork, bacon, duck, squirrel. I really enjoyed carnivore day in the MB.
