  (10:00 AM)

Goooooooood morning!

Brandon Baker (Grand Rapids MN)

Good morning everyone! Yesterday i made sportsnation with my twitter comment on Larry Fitzgerald. My excitement was short lasting when the next comment came from....who else...Zach Rastall

Ben (SW Ohio via Charlotte)

It's ok; I'm a limo driver.

Mike (Boston)

What's up buzz lets get this started!

Clubber Lang (Chicago)

This chat is so predictable. 10:20 ONB, 10:50 Lunch chat. The Morning Buzz is tailor made for me. My prediction for this chat... PAIN.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Good morning, folks! Let's get this Tuesday rolling!

cory (williamsburg)

hi

Paul (Ft Worth)

Let's get it stahted!

Hambone (College Frat House)

Buzz, post this for me, bro favor!

Pete (NC)

Gah it sucks being a Panthers fan. 1st day of training camp and we already lose a key player for the year.

kelly (epping, nh)

good morningg :)

Paul (Ft Worth)

Pretyy sure it sucked to be a panther's fan even before your player got hurt

Ryan (NY)

Buzz, u actually let Rastall's name be shown on TV? Come on

Mike (Belvidere, IL)

Just another manic Tuesday.

Sean (FL)

I actually didnt think you had to add that part about the injury to the Panthers post, the first part made total sense to me

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Buzz, what percentage of the posts that you get are of the "hi" or "post this for me" variety?

Buzzmaster

  (10:02 AM)

Not as many as you'd think, but still enough.

Ben (SW Ohio via Charlotte)

I think Clubber means he expects "du pain" during lunch chat.

Marc (Charlotte)

The best thing for Boston fans about them signing Shelden Williams is that they might get to see Candace Parker at the games.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Wait, weren't the Panthers like 12-4 and the 2 seed in the NFC last year? I'm pretty sure it wouldn't suck to be a fan of them at this point.

Greg (Ellicott City)

NO COMMERCIALS, NO MERCY!!!!!

Marc (Charlotte)

Paul, when's the last time the Cowboys won a playoff game?

Scott. Tasmania. Australia [via mobile]

Good morning america

Neal (Philly)

My friend better not hold a grudge against me for being sick and missing the Eagles practice at the Linc Sunday night.

J.B. (Dunmore, PAq)

What is up good people of the MB (oh and Nate and Brian)?

Robbi (Clinton Ky)

Hello, I was called away yesterday to do good things . Was the chat good?

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

Wow, we've got Clubber, and with Buzz here, we've got Blubber (you know, cause he's fat).

Ryan (NY)

Buzz who would u keep. 2 qb, ppr league. Deangelo 11th, Warner 13th, Anthony Gonzalez 17th. I already am keeping Slaton 18th, plus I am a Colts fan, and 7 of the top 9 wr's are already being kept and we play with 3 wrs and rb/wr flex.

Buzzmaster

  (10:04 AM)

Yes.

Nate (Madison)

So let me get this straight. Vick gets like a year or two in prison for his actions, Stallworth gets a year in jail for his, and Plax shoots HIMSELF and the DA is saying a year is too little? Sounds like a guy is trying to make a name for himself (the DA). I don't take gun crime lightly, but the guy shot himself.

Sean (FL)

The next time someone says Australia is awesome, I am going to remember than some guy would rather post in the MB via cell phone than "experience" Australia.

Paul (Ft Worth)

Who said I was a Cowboys fan? I'm actually a die hard Vikings fan...so I guess the question still applies.

Greg (Ellicott City)

Why are people talking about sports? this is the MB.

Matt (IN)

Good morning everyone. Let's take it up a notch from yesterday.

Brian (Madison, WI)

Didn't Stallworth only spend like 28 days in jail?

Greg (Ellicott City)

Buzz keeps his answers short because his fingers are too wide to type. You know, because hes fat.

Ben (SW Ohio via Charlotte)

I spent yesterday poolside, next to an Ohio State cheerleader and a Miami U. cheerleader. And no sunburn. Great success.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Ryan, you're actually asking Buzz a fantasy football question? Don't you know Buzz doesn't know anything?

Godish (Chicago)

Dead air at 3 PM (EST) in Sports Nation? Can't you get the UConn Huskie or the Penguins mascot to chat? Seems like they're always lingering around your building.

Buzzmaster

  (10:06 AM)

We're working on that right now. Cancellation by the fantasy chat puts a hole in our schedule.

stephanie (cincy)

The Manhattan DA made a name for himself years ago. He has been the DA since 1975 and is 90 years.

chaz (sa tx)

RIP arena football, i told them they need to replace the endzone line with fire and the pads needed to be studded. BUT NOOOO they wanted it to be family friendly, look where that got them...

Neal (Philly)

Buzz should bring back Showgirl to fill that void.

Louis (Fredericton, NB)

Unless there is some food fantasy, better not ask buzz. Although he would rule a food fantasy league

Sean (FL)

no sunburn, and no conversation

Pete (NC)

Wait, if your team has to win for it not to suck being thier fan, who would still be a fan? I'm no bandwagoner, so I'll stick to rooting for a team who is consistently injured.

Reggie (Boston)

This job is starting to get in the way of my Morning Buzz.

Sean (FL)

wow, when Buzz said he was working on it "right now"he really meant it

Paul (Ft Worth)

2 cheerleaders poolside, no sunburn, no conversation = watching an MTV reality show

Fake Brian (Madison)

This chat is getting in the way of my morning buzz

Bob (Lowell)

Nate, New York supposedly has a mandatory 2 year sentence for possession.

Clay (Charlotte)

So I've started to realize that a lot more people than I thought were color blind. A vendor yesterday asked me if I wanted a red shirt...it was green.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Pete's got a point. So, there's only one team in each sport every year of which it does not suck to be a fan? Sounds kinda weaksauce.

Fake Buzz (here)

Sorry, one of The Suits spilled something on the floor. Clean up in aisle 4!

Nate (Madison)

So I just had off those three weeks for my school trip. Well this Friday I'm going to a waterpark with my sister and some others. Thought about asking off with some false reason, but now think maybe I should just call in that day witha mysterious illness that I'll start to setup on Thursday by saying I'm not feeling well. Not sure what will look worse, calling in or asking off for some reason other than going to a waterpark.

Buzzmaster

  (10:13 AM)

You're a credit to your kind.

Rickey Henderson (Hall of Fame)

Ben probably didn't get any digits. Rickey would have gotten digits, because Rickey is the greatest of all time.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Bob's right. New York doesn't screw around on weapons possession. Plus, he's also got a count of reckless endangerment to deal with, because although he shot himself, it could've possibly hit someone else.

Vicki (Indiana)

Nate, just say you have swine flu

Brandon Baker (Grand Rapids MN)

Hey you guys hear that Michael Jackson died? Im shocked!

Carl Spackler (Bushwood)

Ben did you throw a Baby Ruth into the pool?

Nate (Madison)

Well NY should realize that punishment through imprisonment has been proved not to be a working deterrent. Maybe they, along with the country, should work on the availability of firearms.

Mel Kiper (NY)

Wow, what a pick by the somewhat obscure Buzzmaster. He takes a chance by trading the number one pick with the hopes that Kellogg's poptarts would still be available. This move pays off brilliantly. Say goodbye to anonymity, Buzzmaster, you'll be a household name in no time.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Just ask for the day off, Nate. If they ask, just say it's none of their business.

Luke (World Bank)

Albert Haynesworth is looking like he might live up to his contract. Although anyone would look like 100 mil going against that o-line

Nate's Boss (Madison, WI)

Uh Nate, I need to see you about your time off request.

Ben (SW Ohio via Charlotte)

Alright, I have to go. Have a dentist appointment.

chaz (sa tx)

*cricket chirps to brandons comment...

Brian (Madison, WI)

Calling in sick on a Friday? They'll never suspect something is up Nate.

Ed Hochuli (Chat Ref)

15 yards for excessive post length on Nate. You know better son. Repeat 2nd down.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

*puts on the helmet* Are we going to have a gun control debate in the MB?

Nate (Madison)

Clinton, I take back all those things I've said about you.

Vicki (Indiana)

Have fun Ben ha ha ha

J.B. (Dunmore, PA)

If you need to take a weapon into a club, you might want to reconsider entering said club.

Marc (Big D)

I hope Plax has to do a cheesy PSA as part of his sentence. "Hi, I am football star Plaxico Burress. I am here to talk about guns. Guns are bad".

Brett (Butler,PA)

buzz,if you were a dictator what would your palace look like?mine would have a big hulking roller coaster,and a zoo with ferocious animals.then again,that would almost make it certain that people call me michael jackson.

Buzzmaster

  (10:17 AM)

That's a big no.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

I agree with Brian, calling in sick on a Friday will immediately raise your boss's suspicions. Better to just ask for the day off.

Robbi (Clinton Ky)

I saw a commercial yesterday that said poptarts come on over 26 flavors. What does that mean, 27? I didn't know there were that many!

Scott (Chicago)

I know every time I see a gun, it keeps telling me to shoot it.

Internet Tough Guy (Cyberspace)

The only weapons ITG needs are his fists. Watch out punks, you may get to greet ITG's fists one day.

Robbi (Clinton Ky)

Nate, tell them you're going to a family reunion, that always works for me.

Vicki (Indiana)

When are Vick's PSA suppose to start airing?

Bob (Lowell)

Clinton should just have his head laminated as often as he puts on his helmet.

Vicki (Indiana)

If you can ask for the day of just days before you're lucky. Where I work I need to ask for a day off at least three weeks in advance.

stephanie (cincy)

How about hiring protection Mr. Millionaire Football player so you don't have to stick a loaded gun with the safety off down your pants?

Buzzmaster

  (10:19 AM)

The best part is that the gun that he sticks down his pants is one that does not have a safety. That's smart.

Brett (Butler,PA)

da nuh nuh da nuh nuh,THIS IS SPortscenter.

Eric (Livingston)

The problem was Plax wasn't willing to sacrifice. either don't bring the gun or don't wear sweatpants. you can't have your cake and eat it to

Ben (Madison, WI)

Hey Buzz. What's crackin'?

Clinton (Indianapolis)

I think I can speak for most of the gentlemen in here when I say that I'm not putting a loaded gun with the safety off down my pants. There's nothing but bad things that can happen.

Clay (Charlotte)

stephanie, I agree, I don't understand why all of these athletes get DUIs. You are rich, hire a driver or a cab. That's just dumb.

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

No, Buzz, the best part remains that he was wearing sweatpants.

Buzzmaster

  (10:22 AM)

To a NYC club as well. Good point.

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

All I have to do to take a day off is call my secretary that morning. It comes off my 3 weeks paid vacation or off my copious number of personal days.

Buzzmaster

  (10:22 AM)

Does she then get to go home? It's only fair.

JB (TX)

Plax made many mistakes that night. The first, and most egregious, was wearing sweatpants to a club. Who does that?

Mike (Belvidere, IL)

I just heard on Mike/Mike today that Plax is 31. Very good chance he will never be an impact NFL WR again.

Robbi (Clinton Ky)

Don't gloat Tom.

Clubber Lang (Chicago)

Buzz, you are gonna get hurt if you don't post the ONB.

Marc (Charlotte)

Buzz, how about a little ONB...

Buzzmaster

  (10:23 AM)

Let's do it.....

Tom Bronx NY [via mobile]

Do you thinkg with the yankees sitting put at the trade deadline are prepared for the strectch because with Boston making a big trade to get better and Tampa Bay winning again it doesn't seem either team is going to fall out of the race and the Yankee's pitching staff has been spotty and there hitting finding ways not to come up big?

Jermaine (Charlotte)

It doesn't take a genius to realize why they made the law on hand guns in New York. Plax had no intent to hurt anybody. He has no past of violence, just immaturity. If his name wasn't Plaxico Burress this would have been settled out of court a long time ago. All the NY DA office wants to do is make an example and its a shame your going to take away one of the great recievers of the NFL to do it. If thats the case every overprivileged kid that gets a DUI should get the book thrown at them too, Right?

James Lynch (Paradise City, USA)

I don't understand what ESPN is trying to do. everything is about the Yankees and red Sox but nothing gets said about the job the Angels have done this year. You guys are a bunch of idiots and this sportsnation tv show is the worst stuff i've seen. what's next? tractor pulls? i mean, robots? sharks? What a load of garbage. my 5 year old is more creative than that. and the polls, those are stupid too. who Cares whether tony romo and jessica fat rear get back together before reggie bussh and kim whats her name? Stupid! U people have lost a valued viewer.

Nick Johnson (Fairfield Ohio)

In college football do you think it will be Texas or Oklahoma or some other team vs floridia in the bcs national championship. I'm love Oklahoma My dad went there and i plan to.

Heather Frymyer (Canyon Country, CA)

Has anyone suggested to Michael Vick that he donate all of his salary or most of his salary in his first year back with a team since his incidence? This would be a PR move of the century for him and the team who would secure his rights.

Chris (West Virginia)

Will John D. Booty get a shot to start for the Vikings any time soon?

John Fletes (Los Angeles, California)

Will the Dodgers make it to the playoffs even if Manny Ramirez is'nt playing his best?

Matt (Arkansas)

I've been a fan of football for a long time...you know ever since i was little, but i have yet to understand the concept of Michael Vick's conditional reinstatement. What are the restrictions, and why do they have to wait till week six? Thanks.

David (Yearout)

my prediction... the pittsburgh pirates have two NL central titles and 1 NL championship by 2015... remember that

christopher henderson (San Diego)

Do you think that the Padres in the next 10 years will be a compeating team. ESPN is always talking about other teams but Im wondering should the padres trade adrian?

Trevor (OR)

good morning buzz! its my day off so 7 is too early but we'll chat at 1!

Buzzmaster

  (10:23 AM)

And that's it...

Buzzmaster

  (10:24 AM)

I would like to thank all of the recent OverNighters. You've been raising your game, even if it is just a little.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

You don't even need to include the word impact in that sentence, Mike. I think there's a good chance he never sets foot on a NFL field again.

Greg (Ellicott CIty)

Holy ONB Buzzman...

Neal (Philly)

For the first time, I don't care to read the ONB posts.

Paul (Ft Worth)

Thanks Tom for rubbing your awesome job in our faces. *going back to making TPS reports*

Clay (Charlotte)

If his gun was licensed he could have walked into the club with the gun in a holster like a cowboy...actually, I might respect him more if he had done that.

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

No, Buzz. She also works for 3 other attorneys, who are probably in the office that day.

Buzzmaster

  (10:25 AM)

What about her? Does she get four other attorneys then working for her?

Marc (Charlotte)

Hochuli doesn't have enough flags for that ONB.

J.B. (Dunmore, PA)

Well having a loaded gun without a safety on it in my pants might make me sweat.

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

My counter prediction to David: The Pirates have another fire sale in 2013 to get rid of all the prospects they just acquired that will by then be far to expensive for them to retain.

Brandon Baker (Grand Rapids MN)

He has to pay off all his debts first. Im sure thats the last thing on Vicks mind.

Marc (Charlotte)

I'm never requesting the ONB again.

chaz (sa tx)

THAT IS SOME SERIOUSE ONB!!!

Johnstone (Wicker Park)

I like Nick Johnson, an OU fan in Ohio must not be an easy thing.

Ben (Madison, WI)

Quite a few 2 namers in the ONB today.

Nate (Madison)

Buzz, talked to the Canadian girl on Facebook yesterday. The one I met in Venice, and she wished I had went to Croatia with them. Hmmm, there might be a future road trip to Toronto this fall.

Paul (Ft Worth)

Hello, my name is Tom. I charge $500/hr to work on your case for 10 minutes and spend 50 min on TMB.

Sean (FL)

I would just like to submit the idea that Kit Kats are an underrated taste sensation

Mike (Belvidere, IL)

What kind of attorney gets 3 weeks paid vacation and personal days? Really, I want to know...and, are you hiring?

Clinton (Indianapolis)

There's a reason I stopped asking for the ONB. It seems to be getting worse and worse.

Marc (Big D)

I don't think you get to call someone stupid when you use "U" in a sentence. Just me.

Ed Hochuli (Chat Ref)

That's a personal foul for excessive celebration against Tom from West Bloomfield. The throwing of this flag was Outstanding Work! on behalf of the chat ref. 15 yards and repeat 2nd down.

Announcer Guy (ESPN Studios)

The SportsNation Morning Buzz was filmed in front of a live studio audience. And is in association with espn.com. The SportsNation Morning Buzz is distributed by Warner Brothers Domestic Television Distribution.

Brett (Bristol,Conneticut)

buzz,im in the espn live studio but right now i can see you,from my view your either eating a poptart or grinding your teeth on wood to hard to tell,ill get a closer look

Neal (Philly)

If she doesn't have a green card, Nate will be set.

Paul (Ft Worth)

I think we need more announcer guy in our lives

Clay (Charlotte)

I think Disney might be pissed if Warner Brothers was distributing SN.

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

Wow, my first flag from Hochuli. Nice.

stephanie (cincy)

Hey, break me off a piece of that Kit Kat Bar

Greg (Boston)

Great time to show exactly where our legal system is at once Plax gets 2-3 years. Hit a guy and kill him with your car while drunk, 30 days...shoot yourself in the leg, 3 years.

Marc (Charlotte)

Maybe I should fill out some apps and apply to Law School

Jordan (Peoria)

my clothes are literally soaked through...I sprinted to the car, into the house, and back into work because the dog was left outside and I am soaked to the bone from the rain.

Chris (Philly)

Brett, do they have air conditioning in the basement?

Sean (FL)

ever notice how the shows filmed in front of a live audience still sound laugh tracked? Guess that means the show isnt funny...I'm looking at you Darhma and Greg

Clinton (Indianapolis)

It's storming like crazy here, too, Jordan. We kinda needed the rain, though.

Matt (IN)

Did someone just admit to watching Darhma and Greg?

Eric (Livingston)

I wish my life had a laugh track

Mike (Belvidere, IL)

For Eric (Livingston)..hahahhahaha

Sean (FL)

Yes I did, but I was young. Television was such a loosy goosy time back then. My cousin helped me watch it

J.B. (Dunmore, PA)

I wish my life had a plot line.

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

I wish my life had theme music, a la I'm Gonna Get You Sucka.

Buzzmaster

  (10:33 AM)

How much for one rib?

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Nate and Brian's life would have a Jackass-style laugh track. You know, like three or four guys snickering in the background, then bust out laughing when one of 'em falls off a table or something.

Clay (Charlotte)

Buzz with the old school Chris Rock quote, well played.

Matt (IN)

I'm Gonna Git You Sucka is awesome. Love that movie.

Mike (Belvidere, IL)

I wish my life had a cushy job behind an ESPN computer....

Nate (Madison)

Tom, YES! That movie is great, but seems like I know maybe 5 people that have seen it besides me.

Chris (Philly)

GOOD LORD thats a lot of money.

James (North Cack)

i would want the theme for the tv show fish to mplay everytime i walked into a roomThat would be sweet

Sean (FL)

that wasnt old school for buzz. that movie just came out in Bristol

Chris (Philly)

Man, I'm really bringing the suck today. That's what I get for trying to get work done and participate in the MB.

Buzzmaster

  (10:36 AM)

Booooo.

Rich (Douglas AK)

Whoa Wisconsin! Lover's quadrangle and superglue.

The Pulse (unemployed)

I remember when I had a cushy job behind an ESPN computer...

Clinton (Indianapolis)

I've heard of it, but I haven't seen it. Sounds like I need to make a trip to the video store.

Buzzmaster

  (10:37 AM)

Remember, they only have movies in DVDs now. No more 8mm films.

Brett (Bristol,Conneticut)

buzz just did an impression of pirates fans.

Greg (Ellicott CIty)

wow Buzz bringing back the middle school BOOO

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

Yes, Clinton. Yes you do.

Jordan (Peoria)

Customers flight got cancelled...That just means more donuts and coffee cake for us!

Greg (Ellicott CIty)

Someone should tell Clinton that Im Gonna Get You Sucka is a talky...

Clinton (Indianapolis)

You mean I can't get movies in LaserDisc anymore? DAMMIT!

Don (San Francisco)

Buzz, I just got on FaceBook recently, and friend requests from ELEMENTARY school friends are trickling in. Funny how the cute girls from 8th grade are still cute in their 30's.

Paul (Ft Worth)

Bristol : Animal House as Rest of America : The Hangover

J.B. (Dunmore, PA)

Chris: If you really apply yourself you should be able to get a little work in while bringing it to the MB. Step it up, man!

Chris (Philly)

So much for my betamax joke....nicely done Buzz.

Johnstone (Wicker Park)

I didn't know Im gonna get you sucka was available in reel to reel Clinton.

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

*crickets chirping* <------------- impression of Marlins fans.

Pete (NC)

What 8th graders are still in elementary school?

Marc (Charlotte)

Did anyone else realize that The Hangover is essentially Dude Wheres my Car but set in Las Vegas?

Neal (Philly)

I'm too tired to come up with anything witty.

Buzzmaster

  (10:40 AM)

Could be worse. You could be.....

Hurricane Jeff (Byesville, OH)

Hey everyone, it's me, Hurricane. Today is your lucky day, for you are all witnesses of my brand new chat session, Hangin' with Hurricane.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Careful, Tom. We don't want to draw the ire of his royal Marlin-ness, Sam (MIA).

Chris (Philly)

If I really applied myself, then I probably wouldn't be in the MB at all. Being a slacker is kind of a prerequisite for participation.

Matt (IN)

The Marlins fans are all at home watching the games. 2nd highest TV ratings in MLB!

Mike (Belvidere, IL)

I was told the Hangover would rival Old School. I was told wrong. Solid comedy, but not a classic.

Don (San Francisco)

No such thing as junior high where I come from.

Paul (Ft Worth)

Uh no...The Hangover is NOT dude where's my car....that's just insulting

Darrin Haynes (Colorado Springs,CO )

I'm a big time basketball recruit ready to enter high school. I keep touting myself on the bottom Comments section of Buzz's morning chat. Watch out world.

chaz (sa tx)

old school way over rated. why? it had a love story in it thats why!!!

stephanie (cincy)

A really mean girl from HS tried to friend me on Face Book. I ignored her. I have been waiting 35 years to that.

Buzzmaster

  (10:42 AM)

That must have been really satisfying.

Greg (Ellicott CIty)

Darrin Haynes is the Suck

Vicki (Indiana)

Uhgh my junior high years sucked. High school wasn't any better. Now college was a different story.

Luke (Bad Axe, MI)

I love denying people on Facebook. It is a kind way of saying, "this is for all the years you treated me like crap in high school."

stephanie (cincy)

You have not idea Buzz. She tortured me in HS. She is fat now. Yeah.

Tornado Tim (Batesville, Ohio)

Tornado here. Come and chat in my new chat session, Talkin' with Tornado.

Jay Bilas (ESPN)

Darrin who?

Buzzmaster

  (10:44 AM)

I like how his comment says "with his size at PG and SG..." yet he says that he's 6-0. That's not size in basketball. Hey Darrin, you're a shrimp.

Ed (Birmingham)

Friend her and call her fat. Just pretend she's Buzz and let the hate flow.

J.B. (Dunmore, PA)

Way to hold a grudge, Steph. Oh and nice clairvoyance in knowing there would be an electronic media developed where people could interact way back 35 years ago.

Ogre (Adams College)

It looks like in high school some of you were NERDS!

Sean (FL)

SHE married HIM? classmates.com really needs to change their advertising

Jay Bilas (ESPN)

Darrin must improve his strength and shooting if he plans to contend for a Junior Varsity spot next year.

chaz (sa tx)

hey buzz did you hear about that guy who ran down a bank robber that tried to rob his bank and then got FIRED for going against company policy. Turrible!!!!

Vicki (Indiana)

I was an overweight dweeb in high school

Bob (Lowell)

Saw a new sitcom advetised last night. I think it is based on Stephanie's life. It is called The Cougar.

stephanie (cincy)

The best is going to your reunions and pretending you don't remember the guy that broke up with you. That is very satisfying.

Greg (boston)

Facebook is pure Pulse...If I want to keep in touch with someone, I do, i don't need the world to see who I like and don't like...And don't get me started on the status, I don't care what my second cousin in Alabama had for lunch...

Buzzmaster

  (10:47 AM)

Yeah, but cell phones and social networking things like Facebook and MySpace and even IM really have only been around for 10 years or so. So it's possible you could have lost touch with a friend that you, with today's means, would have stayed in touch with.

Brian (Madison, WI)

Darrin is just entering high school Buzz. I give him at least 3-4 more inches of growing.

Buzzmaster

  (10:48 AM)

He's still a 6-0 PG. That's not really "size."

Greg (boston)

Why would someone run down a bank robber? what good can come of that to the person...It's not like it's their money, and it's all insured anyways...

Nate (Madison)

I was 5'10'' until the summer before my senior year and I sprouted up to 6'4'' in little under two weeks.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

I worked as a bank teller in my summers in between years of college, and the head of security always said the same thing: Don't be a hero. Do everything they say. They're not getting very far, and it's not worth getting yourself dead.

Neal (Philly)

Lunch chat! frozen meal

Brian (Madison, WI)

Stephanie is a very bitter woman. Take a deep breath and let it go, move on with no worries.

Buzzmaster

  (10:49 AM)

She can now. She finally ignored the friend request from her arch enemy.

Nate (Madison)

I think Darrin is one of those guys that likes to let people know how good he is if he has resorted to posting things on chat board about himself.

Buzzmaster

  (10:50 AM)

Exactly.

Don (San Francisco)

Facebook is really good for networking. But yes, I don't really need to know what the weather is like where you are.

Eric (Livingston)

Unless you go to a top 10 school in the country, 6'0 is size at PG

Michael Phelps ((In the Pool))

I wouldn't run down a bank robber, but I sure as heck would swim one down.

Sean (FL)

why is a bank robber running away? Dont they have getaway cars anymore? The economy is worse than I thought!

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

Hey Darrin. Brian is the only one leaping to your defense. Your career is doomed.

Rickey Henderson (HoF)

I completely agree Nate. Only the Greatest of All Time can pull that off.

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

Lunch: Peanut butter and honey sammich and Michigan cherries. Not made by my wife, but Michigan cherries are always Outstanding work!

Brett (Bristol,PA)

i am know 6'1'' and 206 pounds as of yesterday,but the poptarts im about to eat will probably add on to that.

Nate (Madison)

I think it's very stupid for people to give money to people that just give notes and don't show any weapon. I know it can be dangerous, but I bet you 95% of those don't have one and if they do, all they need to do is just flash it, not use it and I'd believe them.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Lunch: Sandwich, chips, and a soda.

Matt (IN)

Booooo that Rickey post.

Louis (Fredericton, NB)

The first bank robbing was to get the money to buy the getaway car

Sean (FL)

I am a scrappy 6'2 business analyst. I do not have much footspeed but I am clever so I make up for my lack of natural ability

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Willing to bet your life on that, Nate?

Vicki (Indiana)

lunch: whatever I can find in the kitchen. I hate those few days leading up to a pay day.

J.B. (Dunmore, PA)

Lunch: Chicken wrap with lettuce, cucumbers and Frank's hot sauce with some chips and a Diet Sierra Mist to wash it all down.

Robbi (Clinton Ky)

Lunch:chicken fajita, unsweet tea

Marc (Charlotte)

Lunch: Beef Stroganoff made by me... Outstanding work.

Drew (Buffalo)

A customer I just dealt with soiled himself at my desk..... pretty disgusting.

Buzzmaster

  (10:53 AM)

That's disgusting. I hope it wasn't on your desk.

Buzzmaster

  (10:53 AM)

And hopefully he wasn't trying to let you know what he thought of your customer service.

Drew (Buffalo)

Lunch: no longer interested.

stephanie (cincy)

Lunch: Smug satisfaction. Very filling

Don (San Francisco)

Crab sandwich on a wheat roll.

Greg (Ellicott CIty)

Does Drew work at a preschool?

Eric (Livingston)

Lunch: Too far away to talk about now. You're only making me hungry.

Brian (Madison, WI)

Unlike the rest of this country I'm not judging a person's athletic future before he enters high school.

Rob (Boston)

he soiled himself? where did he find all that dirt? or did he just bring it from home?

JB (TX)

Lunch: maybe Whataburger. Also, listen to Clinton, he survived a Bonnie and Clyde robbery attempt during his days as a bank teller, so he speaks from experience. Don't be a hero.

J.B. (Dunmore, PA)

Awesome chat as always, gang (except Chris from Philly). Gotta run and do some work as I'm on vacation starting at noon tomorrow. Think I'll join Facebook and ask Steph to be my friend. Have a great day, stay safe, and I'll catch you back here tomorrow for my last chat of the week. Later.

Sean (Philly)

That is nasty Drew, I would stay a little late today, and switch that chair with someone else's.

stephanie (cincy)

Pretty disgusting Drew? What do consider disgusting?

Bob (Lowell)

That's cute. Drew is a vetranary assistant now and calls the dogs customers.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Brian can't make up his mind. What a shocker!

Reggie (Boston)

Lunch: Sandwich, chips and a soda.

Marc (Charlotte)

Buzz, did you just question my cooking skills?

Buzzmaster

  (10:56 AM)

That comment wasn't for you. Lighten up Francis.

Sean (FL)

In that customers defense, it was either than or contnue to listen to drew. At least now he had a reason to leave

Marc (Charlotte)

Easy Buzz, don't be so defensive.

Darrin Haynes (Colorado Springs, CO)

With my long range shooting and great ball handling skills, I can take over a Buzzmaster chat easily. Did I mention how tall I am?

Mike (Belvidere, IL)

The kind of behavior Drew's customer displayed is only appropriate if you customer is under 2 or over 95.

Robbi (Clinton Ky)

Have a good day, Bye y'all.

Brett (Bristol,PA)

seeya buzz gotta go to the steelers training camp with my Brother and his Wife today.Stay CLASSY!

Rich Rodriguez (Ann Arbor)

People with long range shooting ability that take over chats need to get lives

Mike (Belvidere, IL)

You're short Darrin.

Buzzmaster

  (10:58 AM)

OK...we're done here. Thanks for stopping by everyone. We'll be back this afternoon and again tomorrow morning. Until then, stay classy SportsNation!

Sean (FL)

Ryan (NY)

Actually have some work, nice Stripes quote buzz. See y'all tom.

Brian (Madison, WI)

I'm actually surprised no one has offered Darrin a scholarship yet. Seems like you have to get them before they finish their freshman year now.

Greg (Ellicott CIty)

Buzz should have an afternoon buzz at 3

Ben (Madison, WI)

Don't watch SNTV or your odds of seeing Rastall improve by 98 percent!
