  (10:00 AM)

Goooooooooooood morning!

Greg (Ellicott City)

The Morning Buzz: Making people hate Mondays just that little bit less since 1862.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Good morning, folks! Let's get this week off to a good start.

Buzzmaster

  (10:01 AM)

Where the heck is everybody? I'm stuck here with 95% of the comments from Fake RGR in the ONB.

Greg (Ellicott City)

Buzz is way too happy and on time for Monday morning.

Don (San Francisco)

Still recovering from all the Solheim Cup action over the weekend...

Clinton (Indianapolis)

So, Buzz, did you have a good weekend?

Buzzmaster

  (10:03 AM)

Wasn't too bad. LadyBuzz's mom had a birthday. Took her out to lunch. Good times. Good food.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Solheim Cup? That's golf, right?

Robbi (Clinton, Ky)

Hello, good weekend?

Nicholas Eckert (Columbus, OH)

Let's start with one Mr. Bruntlett of Philadelphia: Does he increase or decrease his chances at a Golden Glove with that ninth inning yesterday? :-D

Bob (Lowell)

So you got your brownie points in?

Greg (Ellicott City)

Did you let LadyBuzz's mom eat anything?

Dave (vt)

The boss is back from vacation so i have to look like im working this week.

Johnstone (Wicker Park)

What is going on? He's here on time on Monday? Was it slow traffic?

Bob (Lowell)

It's Monday Buzz. Just a little trouble getting started.

Anthony (NY)

Sportsnation is at 5 today according to my dvr. Is it correct?

Buzzmaster

  (10:05 AM)

Uhhhhhh.....Good question. I don't know.

Matt (IN)

Good morning. Don't look now but Josh Beckett just gave up another home run

Neal (Philly)

My friend threw up in my car Saturday night. What's a fitting punishment for her?

Buzzmaster

  (10:06 AM)

Clean out the car in the middle of the driveway in the sun with the doors closed and not being allowed to get out until it's totally clean.

Pete (NC)

The only thing that could have made that Phils/Mets game even more unbelievable is if the Mets could actually win a game.

tom* (parkville, md)

We are here we are here we are here!

Drew (Buffalo)

Moved into a new apartment over the weekend.... gas company can't turn the gas on until wednsday..... freezing cold showers aren't the best way to start a monday

Brett (Butler.PA)

but buzz......you know everything!:(

Greg (Ellicott City)

We need more details surrounding said incident to make a punishment judgment.

Anthony (NY)

Make her cover the tab the next time you go drinking, then you'll be owing her the same after you throw up in her car.

Jack (NB Canada)

Is your friend attractive?

Scott (Brewtown)

Methinks the national media might be underestimating the Packers this year. They looked impressive two weeks in a row now. Preseason, I know, but better than the alternative

Neal (Philly)

That would punish me though because I wanted the smell out.

Buzzmaster

  (10:08 AM)

That's why she's cleaning it.

Jack (NB Canada)

I feel the need...the need for speed!

Anthony (NY)

The Lions went undefeated last year in the preseason Neal.... look how that turned out.

Neal (Philly)

I drove to her house, drove her and her roommates to the bar. She was off doing shots. I drove her back and she just pulled a Nate and Brian in my car. She said she would've warned me but she didn't feel sick.

Robbi (Clinton Ky)

I went to the game that I won tickets for. I had a great time. Went hiking Saturday. My legs are sore today. Kinda out of shape!

stephanie (cincy)

Back in the day I was a big puker when I drank. But, I only did in my car

Cory (PA)

What's J.B.'s (Dunmore, PA) stance on Mondays? I need to update my list.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Way to crank up the creepy to 11, Jack.

Tom (River North)

I spent 9 hours in a car yesterday for what should normally be a 5 hour drive. Stupid construction.

Cory (PA)

The agreement between my friends and I is it's a $150 charge to have the car professionally detailed.

Brian (Madison, WI)

Jon puked in my car earlier this summer and his punishment was cleaning out my car the next morning while he was still hungover.

Buzzmaster

  (10:10 AM)

People really have that much trouble with puking in cars? I've only ever witnessed one such incident, but it turned into racing stripes. No internal damage.

stephanie (cincy)

Correction: I did puke in a NYC cab once. He threw me out.

2008-Scott (Brewton)

Methinks the national media might be underestimating the Lions this year. They looked impressive two weeks in a row now. Preseason, I know, but better than the alternative

Jack (NB Canada)

Open the window and puke out the car...

Scott (Brewtown)

Talking about Puke does not make for a very scintallating Monday morning chat

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Was this before or after you witnessed the stabbing, stephanie?

Matt (IN)

Early Sunday morning the state boys arrested a guy who pulled a Tony LaRuss. Passed out at a stoplight--on US41, no less--with his foot on the brake, a rum and coke in one hand and a beer in the other. No word on any puking.

Jack (NB Canada)

Is Brett Favre really back or did I have a dream?

Christian (High Point, NC)

Good morning everyone! Had a great time at the Wyndham Championship this weekend. Congrats to Mr. Moore on his first PGA Tour win.

Buzzmaster

  (10:13 AM)

Sergio pulled a Tiger.

Buzzmaster

  (10:13 AM)

Just kidding Mr. Woods.

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

I found out yesterday that dismantling a couch in order to get it out of a basement is very therapeutic. Lots of good sledgehammer work there.

Matt (IN)

LaRussA. Stupid monday mornings.

stephanie (cincy)

Speaking of the "stabbing" As requested I a wrote a detailed account of it in the OMB and Buzz didn't post it.

Buzzmaster

  (10:14 AM)

Did you?....Hang on a sec......

Buzzmaster

  (10:15 AM)

..........

Buzzmaster

  (10:15 AM)

Oh yeah...you did. Here it is:

Buzzmaster

  (10:15 AM)

As promised:It was the Summer of Sam, the blackout and one of the hottest on record. The NY Hilton is a huge hotel with one city block long kitchen that serves 3 restaurants, room service and banquets up to 2500. That night the hotel was at 100% capacity and there was two banquets going on, so the place was just nuts. The stabber was a Jamaican guy and the stabee was African American. The stabber was burned by a hot pot that the stabee put in his way. Words were exchanged; specifically the stabee using the "n" word. Next thing you know, the stabee is on the floor holding his stomach and the about 5 guys leaped on the stabber and drug him into the Chef's office. Someone called 911, but it was clear the guy was dead. The Chef put about 10 table cloths over him and told everyone to get back to work. The cops and EMT's got there in about 10-15 minutes and took him away. I had come in right after it happened and walked through a puddle of blood. My white shoes were covered in it. My boss sent me home and I threw them out. As far as I know, service didn't skip a beat and the guests had no idea what had happened. True story.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

OMB? Office of Management and Budget?

fred (omaha)

tom, you did outstanding work! with that sledgehammer

SteveFitz (Cicero, IL)

Another funny car incident. Years back my buddy was smoking in another buddy's car and ashed his cigarette out the window. Well, he ashed it too hard and the cherry flicked off. Unlucky for him, the cherry flew back in the car and landed inside his ear. True story. Lets just say he had sparks coming out of his ear as he smacked himself upside the head. One of the funniest things I have EVER seen.

Suits (Bristol)

No one insults our Tiger. Buzz, you are now demoted to Custodial Assistant.

Robbi (Clinton Ky)

Demo work is the best there is.

stephanie (cincy)

thanks buzz.

Anthony (NY)

OMB: On the Morning Buzz; new phrase coined by Steph

Don (San Francisco)

Sounds like an opening scene of an NCIS episode

Christian (High Point, NC)

I demand a new version of the Bronx is Burning with steph's story in it.

Rich Rodriguez (Michigan)

Coaches that play 3 guys at the qb position need to get lives

Clay (Charlotte)

Suits, I'm pretty sure that's a step up for buzz.

Clay (Charlotte)

Puking in a car is automatic banishment, you are no longer allowed to ride in my car at anytime, no exceptions.

Robert (Huntsville, Al)

so, saturday night I'm at a friends. I'm walking up the stairs to go inside, and my flip flop catches a stair and I do a flying man forward. Someone in front of me was holding the metal storm door open. My left shoulder, which was surgically repaired 3 weeks ago, caught myself by slamming into the door. I now have the markings of the door in my shoulder... I feel like I'm in Final Destination...

Scott (Brewtown)

I saw the OMB and thought about commenting on it, but in my incredible laziness, figured other MBer's would take care of it and true to form you all came through with flying colors...whatever that means.

Christian (High Point, NC)

Because we all know how successful platooning QBs is*

Bob (Lowell)

Even by Monday standards, this morning is suckier than most.

Neal (Philly)

It would only be fitting if she were driving me for my birthday celebration this weekend.

Christian (High Point, NC)

I take it Clay doesn't have any children

Louis (Fredericton, NB)

The lesson as always: don't wear flip-flop

Jack (NB Canada)

OMB - Our Man Buzz

Buzzmaster

  (10:20 AM)

LadyBuzz's parents had racoon problems at their house, getting into their trash and eating their plants. So, her dad set up a trap to catch the racoon in the act. Except he didn't catch the racoon, he caught a skunk!

Lady Buzz's Mom (Bristol)

I had a great birthday celebration. That Matt sure is great for my daughter. He is such a gentleman!

Christian (High Point, NC)

PSA: Margaritaville isn't a fun party song, people. It's a cautionary tale against wearing flip flops. The more you know ...

Clay (Charlotte)

You're right, I don't have kids, and I'm trying to decide if age would effect my decision....nope.

Bears Nation (Chicago)

Bear down, Chicago Bears, make every play, clear the way to victory!..............

Robbi (Clinton Ky)

It's not the flip flop that causes accidents. It's the person wearing the flip flops fault.

stephanie (cincy)

OMB=Old Man Buzz

Matt (IN)

Buzz, you cannot stop racoons. You can only hope to contain them (and I don't mean in a trap, either).

Robert (Huntsville, Al)

If a person falls into a metal storm door, and no one is around to see it. Does it happen?

Pepi Le Pew (Cage)

Let me out , my darling Buzz, and I will shower you with looooovvve!

JB (TX)

Yeah, if I roll into work and get some dead guy's blood on my shoes, go ahead and assume I'm taking the rest of the day off. I'm just sayin...

Don (San Francisco)

Buzz's racoon trap involves a chainsaw and steak.

Christian (High Point, NC)

All I know is that Old Navy has an entire wall of different colored flip flops for women. Reason #182 I'm glad to be a guy.

Buzzmaster

  (10:23 AM)

Then, if you're really lucky, that wall starts to look like the inside of your closet.*

Christian (High Point, NC)

Obligatory "ruckus" comment here

Louis (Fredericton, NB)

Buzz, in the sportsnation poll I imagine you meant hanging out by the pool. Because even the most dedicated SN fan doesn't really hang by the polls

Buzzmaster

  (10:23 AM)

Either way.

Godish (Chicago)

Bears looked good; 1985 good.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Haven't worn flip flops since the dorms in college, where it was required in the shower. Definitely didn't want warts all over your feet.

Greg (Ellicott City)

If I type this and Buzz doesnt post it, does it matter?

Buzzmaster

  (10:24 AM)

Never does.

stephanie (cincy)

Flip flops for women are an important fashion statement. Mine have a bit of a heel and are of course, black.

Jack (NB Canada)

Did you name the skunk?

Buzzmaster

  (10:25 AM)

Uhhhh, that's a big no. There was a big to-do at the house over what to do with the skunk. We put a blanket over the cage to make it think it was still night and to deflect any spray that might come out.

Robbi (Clinton Ky)

I cannot live without flip flops!

Rich Rodriguez (Ann Arbor)

People who cruise the women's flip-flop section at Old Navy need to get lives. Also, my 3 QB shuffle is destined to fail.

Christian (High Point, NC)

Ok, is there some kind of in-joke I'm missing regarding the Bears? Or are people actually getting their hopes up due to preseason games?

Clay (Charlotte)

Whoa, whoa, whoa, let's calm down on comparing the 2009 Bears to the 1985 Bears, it's a little early for that.

SteveFitz (Cicero, IL)

If that were a regular season game it would of ended like this, Bears 58, Giants 0.

Tom (River North)

I used to prefer hanging out at the pool in my building, but since I don't live there anymore, I'm stuck with the beach.

chaz (sa tx)

why u gotta bring my dog into this?

Jack (NB Canada)

New season of The Office starts Sept 17th. w00t

Christian (High Point, NC)

Isn't a flip flop with a heel simply a sandal?

Marc (Charlotte)

Meeting ran late. What'd I miss?

Buzzmaster

  (10:26 AM)

Stephanie killed a skunk while Brian, Nate and Matt puked in the car.

Christian (High Point, NC)

This is an SN poll. Shouldn't there be a "indoors with the AC turned up to max" option?

Greg (boston)

Sorry I'm not around much but I decided to bring y'all a PSA. Please make sure you do not pass cellphones in mall restaurants in Baltimore, it could get you in trouble. Thanks

Ruckus (sa tx)

Why you gotta bring my owner into this? Also, everyone check me out on Twitter.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

I'm going to say hanging out at the pool. I can just walk to the pool at my apartment complex. I'd have to drive a little while to get to a beach.

tom* (parkville, md)

Stephanie killed the skunk using the candlestick in the library.

stephanie (cincy)

Negative Christian. They flip and flop and no straps, so no, they are not a sandal

Marc (Charlotte)

So it's pretty much a normal Monday in the MB.

Jack (NB Canada)

Remnants of Hurricane Bill came through and the waves were huge at the beach.

Clay (Charlotte)

Pass cellphones? Buzz can you translate crazy for me?

Buzzmaster

  (10:28 AM)

Not this time.

stephanie (cincy)

Why are blaming the skunk killing on me? I love all of God's creatures

Christian (High Point, NC)

And by "apartment complex" Clinton means "retirement home"

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Stephanie killed the skunk in the kitchen with the knife.

Louis (Fredericton, NB)

It's kinda surprising how many drivers got names that fit perfectly their jobs, Scott Speed, Will Power, Ashley Force...

Buzzmaster

  (10:29 AM)

Oh yeah, thanks for reminding me. We are busy with chats today. John and Ashley Force chat at 2. November Nine's Eric Buchman at 4. Mike Sokolove, Pete Rose biographer, chats at 1. And Jeremy Green makes his triumphant return at noon!

Christian (High Point, NC)

Wait, I thought Steph trapped the skunk and the Chef killed the skunk for the main course?

Clinton (Indianapolis)

One of the Ravens got arrested for what the police thought was possession of a gun. Turns out it was just a cell phone.

Bill Hicks (RIP)

What's the big deal about the beach? It's where dirt meets water.

Drew (Buffalo)

I was at a country club once and a skunk wandered near where we were eating. The groundskeeper kid came out with a rifle and shot it. Apparently you have to shoot it in the lung area so it bleeds out as opposed to just shooting in the head, because that would cause it to release spray .

Johnstone (Wicker Park)

To go along with Louis: We have a meteorologist here named Amy Freeze.

SteveFitz (Cicero, IL)

In the library, with the wrench, by the librarian...........

Ruckus (sa tx)

ok, time for the rest of the ONB.

Buzzmaster

  (10:31 AM)

Let's do it Ruckus....

JC (seattle)

why is that these big sports teams like pitt and NY and other calf teams get favored in the playoffs and the finals , i have prove of this , and if its true then I,m ashamed to admit that sports is no longer true to the fan and the little guy or girl growing up to be a superstar , the seahawks and the az cardinals and the redwings all got robed , when does it stop , because fan aren't stupid it , it just that we have no power , and oh yes the utah football team has proven it shelf it should be number one , but i guess that will never happen , shame on you owners and ref and comiss , you have ruined sports for the common man ty

Matt L (North Jersey)

LIke the show but during the ESPN commercial I heard the statement: "There is no human that can beat Brock Lesnar in an MMA fight"..How can you guys possibly say this? thats my question. There needs to be a balance in MMA names before we start talking about Brock Lesnar (who only has 5 fights under his belt) the best. How about other names like Lyoto Machida, Anderson Silva, BJ Penn, George St Pierre, Forrest Griffin, Kazushi Sakuraba, Mirko Cro Cop, and the best: FEDOR EMELIANENKO.Its embarassing enough that MMA needs to hear about Lesnar so at the very least take it off the commercial.. True MMA Fans need the public to know that skill like Jiu Jitsu is more important than strength. The answer is simple to the proposed question: Fedor

johnny (henderson, nv)

how is jeremy childs from boise state not on an nfl roster, what a mockery

Brett (Butler.PA)

Buzz,i am know the coach of my brother nick's fantasy team(NFL).every year all my friends and his get a Fantasy league going the old fashioned way,with a pen and a piece of paper,though he expects the trophy to be in his house if i win,i must point out that he is doing nothing and i am doing everything from the research to the drafting.So buzz,if we win,where should the trophy Go???

keith (moriah center NY)

the yankees are going too win tonight vs the redsoxs and take 2-3 from the redsoxs

Matt (Pittsburgh)

Me and my friends were talking and we just dont understand how killing dogs can put you in jail for 2 years, but killing somone while driving drunk on gets your 30 days in jail?

Wayne Hume Jr. (phoenix AZ)

Colen watch your show or listen to you on the radio every day. I agree with you alot. BUT, Brett favre he will sell aolt of tickets and bring alot of attention to Minesota. I think when tough times hit along with the way couch childress flip flops his dissions 8-8 I SEE IT RIGHT NOW. tHE TEAM WILL HAVE TRUST ISSUES WITH WITH LEADER SHIP. Once again love your show!

Carl (NJ)

Cafe Disco...top 3 Office episode. The Blam - Various Disgraces...very good song. "When Im breakin all the rules, Im breakdancin."

Don (San Francisco)

Do you know what's scarier than ONB? The comments on the archived TMB chats. Really, leaving a comment on a chat archive? It's like chatting about chatting. I'm confusing myself now.

Buzzmaster

  (10:31 AM)

And that's it....Mercifully.

SteveFitz (Cicero, IL)

Chicago, North Ave Beach = Miami Beach Light

Mr. Freeze (Gotham)

I'm putting this chat on ice!

stephanie (cincy)

Why do you have to shoot the skunk? They will run off when they realize there are humans around

Clay (Charlotte)

There were some angry people posting in the ONB this weekend.

Clay (Charlotte)

Wow, kudos on the Bill Hicks quote.

Robbi (Clinton Ky)

I can go to the beach at Ky lake, but the water is nasty. People vacation there. I don't understand it. So, I choose the pool.

Brian (Madison, WI)

What kind of cell phone does one have that it is mistaken for a gun? Was the officer drunk?

Christian (High Point, NC)

Did Matt in Pittsburgh submit that comment 6 months ago?

Louis (Fredericton, NB)

Steph, they don't always run off. I had a staredown with one coming home from school a few years back. I thought it would go away, but I pussied out after 5 minutes of staring.

Buzzmaster

  (10:34 AM)

I was walking into a building in college once and I walked past a garbage can, right up to the door, opened it and caught something out of the corner of my eye and it was a skunk. I had passed by it by about a foot. Freaked me out.

Trevor (Texas)

The cell phone Zach Morris used in Saved by the Bell could easily be mistaken for a gun...

Louis (Fredericton, NB)

I guess having a gun-cellphone is just the next evolution. That officer was just a little ahed of his time

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

The best part of the ONB: "the seahawks and the az cardinals and the redwings all got robed." Yeah, I could see Hasselbeck, Fitzgerald and Datsyuk all hanging with Hef.

Christian (High Point, NC)

It was an NFL player. I would've assumed a gun too.

Robbi (Clinton Ky)

I have a friend who TRIED to shot a skunk with a 22, that skunk turned around and put up his dukes.

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

Crazy thing about that cell phone story is that the guy got "arrested," and not just "detained until the cop figured out that the cell phone wasn't actually a gun."

Trevor (Texas)

Man...same situation here Buzz. Walking to class one day right by a garbage can. All of a sudden the lid flew off and a squirrel literally shot out of the can...scared the bejeesus out of me.

Jack (NB Canada)

Saw 4 porcupines, a fox and raccoon on a walk the other night.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Not to mention some people keep skunks (de-scented, of course) as pets. Yuck.

stephanie (cincy)

what do think will happen with the Cowboys jumbotron Buzz?

Buzzmaster

  (10:37 AM)

Blow it up.

Christian (High Point, NC)

Today on the Morning Buzz: Close brushes with nature!

Bob (Lowell)

Yea Tom, but he got arrested for assaulting the cop.

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

I was talking to a really hot friend of mine one time on the dorm steps. She suddenly grabbed me and pulled me toward her. I thought I was getting a kiss, and it turned out she was pulling me inside to escape a skunk that walked by.

Robbi (Clinton Ky)

Skunks and pukers. Yikes!

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Missed hitting a deer by about two feet once. Good thing, too. The deer vs. my car would've been stacked in favor of the deer.

Clay (Charlotte)

A girl I work with has a racoon as a pet, she's wondering why it keeps hiding her jewlery...apparently she didn't do any research before she bought it.

Buzzmaster

  (10:39 AM)

Does she have a crazy monkey as a pet too?

Louis (Fredericton, NB)

I wish we could de-scent some human too. I could make a list of possible target for such a program

Clay (Charlotte)

This afternoon on TAB, fast animals, slow children.

Christian (High Point, NC)

... and here I thought the Model T was a sturdy car

JB (TX)

FYI, I've never seen a skunk up close, but I did puke in my own car once. There's my contribution for the day.

Neal (Philly)

I nearly hit two deer on my way to work this morning.

Johnstone (Wicker Park)

I had a friend hit a cow once driving real late night on a country road. Cows>Cars

Clay (Charlotte)

No, but she has like 8 dogs, 2 cats, and 12 snakes too.

Greg (boston)

Sorry, work beckoned. I can't believe no one commented on the ONB post regarding being the coach of someone elses fantasy team. that has to be the most absurd thing I've ever heard. What's the point of playing FFB if you have to hire a coach?

Buzzmaster

  (10:41 AM)

So you can show the trophy in your house if you win and not allowing the other guy to have it. Duhhhhhhhh.

Jack (NB Canada)

Hit a deer on the Airline on the way back from a Pats game once, a lonely cop told us his life story when he drove us to a motel in Bangor. Got the car fixed the next day and finally made it home.

Christian (High Point, NC)

A tent of mine was skunked once. They tried to blame the hidden candy, but I'm going to guess it was the garbage bag one of the fathers hung next to it.

Celozzi Ettleson (Elmhurst, IL)

RIP Cash for Clunkers deal.

Johnstone (Wicker Park)

Any chick with more than one snake, scratch that, just 1 snake = Stay the hell away.

Robbi (Clinton Ky)

Oh Clinton. people hit deers here all the time.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

A: I didn't read the ONB, 2.) Don't really care, and third: Um...what were we talking about again?

Dave (Tallahassee, FL)

I didn't think it was possible to run over a squirrel on a bicycle, but in college on the way home from the gym I did. Suicidal squirrel maybe?

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

My wife and I used to have the menagerie house. We had 5 cats, 2 hamsters, one 3 foot long iguana, 5 parakeets, and 0 skunks/raccoons.

Clay (Charlotte)

NC state law says that if you hit a deer with your car you can keep it. A friend of mine hit a deer and cop asked if she wanted to take it home with her. She freaked out on him.

Robbi (Clinton Ky)

I have hit 2 deers and a cow. It's life in the country.

Nate (Madison)

Better late than never.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Oh, I know, Robbi. I saw what a deer did to a minivan, and my car was definitely less sturdy than that.

Matt (IN)

Will one of our police forces pull Robbi over?

Robbi (Clinton Ky)

Deers will actually just jump on your car.

Brian (Madison, WI)

5 cats? That's close to crazy cat lady territory.

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

Michigan has that take-the-deer-home law, too. My sister hit a deer, and my family had venison for a month. Good deal, since her car was a piece of crap anyway.

Louis (Fredericton, NB)

2 deers and a cow! And it's not even noon

Christian (High Point, NC)

So I am not looking forward to lunch chat now

Nate (Madison)

So I was at a buddy's wedding this weekend, and mutual friend of a bunch of our's was in town from L.A. and was on the Real World at one point. Well you would think she would be buying the bar out with her modeling opportunities she claims she's having. Nope, she was literally going around asking guys to buy her a drink.

Buzzmaster

  (10:46 AM)

Just because she's modeling doesn't mean she's rolling in the dough. You have a job, don't you? Does that mean you can buy drinks for everyone you meet?

Buzzmaster

  (10:46 AM)

And I'm talking about actually paying for the drinks, not just using the free ones you get with your frequent buyers card.

Christian (High Point, NC)

I'm trying to imagine how one would figuratively go around asking guys to buy her a drink

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

Nate: People who have money have money for a reason. They don't blow $80,000 buying drinks for you for one night.

Greg (boston)

How exactly do you hit a cow? A der i can understand, they move fast and can get in the way. A cow moves so slow you had to have been aiming for it

Buzzmaster

  (10:47 AM)

It's the hit it, take it home rule. Hit the cow and you've got burgers for a month.

Jack (NB Canada)

I only buy drinks for models.

Scott (Brewtown)

Once a year here in Wisco some maroon will hit a deer, think it's dead and stuff it in the back of the car. Then in a few minutes when stunned deer wakes up it usually kick the crap out of the inside ot their car. I find great enjoyment in this.

Nate (Madison)

Fair point, but she did just win $25K on Challenge show.

Robert (Huntsville, Al)

if you are a model, you are spending all your money on cocaine so you can continue to be a model. Duh...

Greg (boston)

I have a buddy that is on a semi popular TV show and has a recurring role but not a major one. He makes as much as I do yet somehow everyone expects him to be rolling in dough

Buzzmaster

  (10:48 AM)

What show?

Marc (Charlotte)

Cows are deceptively fast.

steve t (tampa , fl)

enough w the cows

Jack (NB Canada)

That was funny when it was in Tommy Boy...

Marc (Charlotte)

Buzz, most people could get more than months worth of burgers out of an entire cow, but you are fat so I understand.

SteveFitz (Cicero, IL)

Unless you're Naomi Cambell or someone, models don't make that much money. They just get a junk load of free stuff.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Cow wanders into the road, you come around a curve or over a hill, can't stop in time, BAM, you hit a cow.

Dave (Tallahassee, FL)

Some cows are ninjas I guess.

Greg (boston)

yes, but nate, obviously she can't get a real job between challenges, would you hire someone with "Real World" on their resume

Big Z (Chicago)

Cows. Mmmmm. Cows.

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

Two girls tried to get me to buy them drinks at a bar once. I was getting myself a drink, the bartender asks them what they wanted, and they said, "whatever that guy is buying for us." I laughed in their faces and walked back to my wife.

Cory (PA)

His buddy is T.O.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

So, because she won $25K, that means she's required to buy everybody drinks?

Robbi (Clinton Ky)

A black cow on a dark night, on the side of a country back road is very hard to see.

CAL (St. Paul, MN)

So Tommy Boy was based on real events in Wisconsin?

Christian (High Point, NC)

So she's an attractive model getting guys to buy her a drink. That's called leveraging talent.

Neal (Philly)

Lunch: another microwave meal

Prince Fielder (Milwaukee)

I once ate a cow as an appetizer.

Robert (Huntsville, Al)

This one time I saw a dinosaur in my backyard. And then later on, I saw a monkey chasing a raccoon. The raccoon was busy eating a dead cat that was killed by a car swerving trying to not hit a deer. The deer was running because of the dinosaur that was in my back yard...

Greg (boston)

Clinton, in here, 25K is a lot of money, that's more than Buzz makes yearly

JB (TX)

I went to college in LA, seeing someone on TV doesn't make them rich. Also "modeling opportunity" probably means she does promo work for some liquor company.

Toms wife (West Bloomfield, MI)

Oh yeah, I remember when Tom did that, it was oustanding work!

Christian (High Point, NC)

If she lives in California, she probably ended up with about $3 and an IOU from the government from that $25K.

Mike Golic (ESPN)

POTROAST!!!

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Lunch: Sandwich, chips, and a soda.

Nate (Madison)

I know, I just thought it was odd at a wedding full of friends. To overhear "Hey, how's it going...yadda yadda....you want to buy me a drink?

Buzzmaster

  (10:51 AM)

That is odd. But who's the sucker if someone actually buys her drinks?

Chris O'Donnell (Gutter)

Lunch: Whatever I can find in the dumpster behind the local restaurant.

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

Lunch: Breakfast burrito made by my wife. Outstanding work!

Robbi (Clinton Ky)

Lunch: Leftovers today. Grilled chicken breast, purple hull peas and corn, unsweet tea.

Drew (Buffalo)

25k? a man can dream......

Greg (boston)

Robert, does that acid trip ever come back and haunt you?

Cory (PA)

Lunch: Beef a la Buick

SteveFitz (Cicero, IL)

Lunch: Leftover 3 day old mostaccioli. When it's at its finest taste.

Nate (Madison)

Not this guy....at least I don't remember buying her one. I was pretty greased so who knows.

John T. (Ann Arbor, MI)

Buzzmaster where is the Sports talk?

Buzzmaster

  (10:52 AM)

Take the first hallway on your right, take your first left and it's the third door down on the right.

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

Cash bars at weddings = THE SUCK.

Louis (Fredericton, NB)

Lunch: leftover pasta. But I got some crock pot chilio waiting for me at home for dinner

Marc (Charlotte)

Nate, what are you doing at a wedding that isn't open bar?

Drew (Buffalo)

Lunch: chicken quesadilla, taco, chicken taco, mountain dew

Brian (Madison, WI)

Yeah I suppose if people just saw you on MTV winning $25k than they probably aren't going to take very well to asking them to buy you a drink.

JB (TX)

Lunch: it's monday, probably Subway. 2 more points on the Ral World chick: 1) if you're hot, like "model" hot, shouldn't dudes be asking to buy her drinks instead of the other way around and 2) what kind of wedding doesn't have an open bar? I'm just sayin...

Marc (Charlotte)

Lunch: Swedeish Meatballs over Egg Noodles.

Brian (Madison, WI)

Lunch: Turkey sandwich, cheesy potatoes, and a brownie.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

What kind of wedding doesn't have an open bar? The kind where the budget is a bit tight.

SteveFitz (Cicero, IL)

Wedding with no open bar = not worth my time...............even if it's my sister.

Christian (High Point, NC)

It seems the lack of an open bar is the real target of this room's ire

chaz (sa tx)

i dont know if i feel comfortable bringing my dog to the chat anymore.

Marc (Charlotte)

Or the kind where you know Nate and Brian would take advantage of the open bar.

Robert (Huntsville, Al)

I have a friend arguing that Kill Bill is a great movie. That movie is a waste of space on a DVD. The only reason people like that movie is because Tarantino directed it. If his name wasn't attached to it, no one would have watched it...

Clinton (Indianapolis)

I've actually been to a wedding with no bar before. Very strict Christians.

Jack (NB Canada)

John T is Mr. T's little bro?

Ruckus (sa tx)

Chaz leaves his beers and drink on the table, I always drink them.

Brian (Madison, WI)

I would say the majority of weddings that I've been to haven't been open bar. My friends drink too much so when/if I get married there will not be an open bar.

Greg (boston)

I would never open the bar at my wedding, not that I'd think to ever get hitched. My friends and family are animals and it would probably cost me 3 years salary. And Robert, Kill Bill was awful

Christian (High Point, NC)

I call Shenanigans on Robert. I think Kill Bill is a fantastic film. I look forward to Volume 3 in 15 years.

Marc (Big D)

Lunch: Leftover chicken fajitas. Kind of concerned how the chicken will turn out in the microwave so I might have to audible to Taco Bell.

Robbi (Clinton Ky)

Just keep him out of the streets chaz.

Nate (Madison)

People in their low to mid-20's getting married, usually a tighter budget.

Buzzmaster

  (10:57 AM)

I've heard some people say that an open bar can be up to 10% of your total wedding cost. Holy smokes. After hearing that, I can understand a cash bar. Or a beer-only free bar.

steve t (tampa , fl)

i'm bouncin soon all this talk of cows and open bar is not what im lookin for

Matt Damon (Buzz's House)

Lady Buzz and I are going to have an open bar, but don't expect good service. Buzz isn't very good at being a bartender.

Christian (High Point, NC)

If there's no open bar, what will keep Brian's wife-to-be from bailing?

Nate (Madison)

Oh, beer was free. Mixers and shots costed money.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Robert, if Tarantino's name isn't attached to it, the movie wouldn't exist. He wrote the story in addition to directing.

Louis (Fredericton, NB)

I actually liked the Kill Bill movies. and my guess is that there is plenty of movies that are a worst waste of DVDs than the Kill Bill ones

Louis (Fredericton, NB)

I haven't gone to many open bar weddings (in some cases anyway, it's just asking ofr trouble), but I like the compromise of having a few bottle of wine on each tables. It's easy to get drunk cheap because there is always a few tables filled with old uncles and aunts that won't drink all their wine

Brian (Madison, WI)

I would probably do a beer-only bar, the shots and mixers is what makes an open bar get OC.

Obi Won Kenobi (Land Speeder)

steve, this isn't the chat you're looking for. *waving hand*

Christian (High Point, NC)

Who does shots at a wedding reception? Wait, don't answer that, I already know.

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

At our wedding, we bought bottles of beer, wine, liquor and mixers, and hired someone to dole it out. When that was gone, it was gone. The rest we took home. That's cheaper and FAR better than cash bar.

SteveFitz (Cicero, IL)

If I ever get married and have a cash bar, I better get a piece of that action for all the buisness I'll be bringing in.

JB (TX)

Speaking of good movies Swingers was on Encore last nite, it's always funny to see Vince Vaughn and Favreau skinny.

Nate (Madison)

Saw Inglourious Bastards, think I spelled that right, and it was great.

Buzzmaster

  (11:00 AM)

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

stephanie (cincy)

cash bar=tacky

Christian (High Point, NC)

Everyone have a Happy Monday!

Nate (Madison)

Watched Dazed and Confused along with Stand By Me last night, both great flicks.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Alright, folks, stay classy and have a good rest of your day!
