  (10:01 AM)

Gooooooooood morning!

Neal (Philly)

Last night was more like it. Hopefully the Phillies can clinch tonight.

Dave (vt)

Let's get the show on the road.

Dave (Tallahassee, FL)

Good morning

Marc (Charlotte)

Buzz, the Wednesday chat schedule is always stacked. Props to you for making Hump day easier on us.

Bob (Lowell)

Good morning. Always a good day when I log on to find my win streak is > 0.

Rich (Douglas AK)

Conan wants his concussion back Tim Tebow.

Chad (Las Vegas)

So I need SN's help. Let's Make a Deal is back with Wayne Brady hosting here in Vegas. I want to go but need a costume idea. I know I am asking for some sick responses but give it to me.

Buzzmaster

  (10:02 AM)

I'm pretty sure you're going to regret that.

Clay (Hillsdale, MI)

Morning Buzznation

The Suits (Bristol)

10:01 Buzz. Get a clock that works.

Christian (High Point, NC)

I loathe the last day of the month.

Rich (Douglas AK)

Thirty days past September, Carolina Panthers don't remember.

J.B. (Dunmore, PA)

Good morning Buzz Nation. I'm hoping for an uniterrupted chat today.

Vicki (Indiana)

My streak is at 3 right now, miraculously.

Chad (Las Vegas)

LSU fan wants Tebow's concussion to stick around for a little while.

Buzzmaster

  (10:04 AM)

Really? If you're going to play and beat a team, don't you want them at full strength, so no one has any excuses.

Brian (Madison, WI)

Dress up as a dog and wear a Vick jersey? Too soon?

Marc (Charlotte)

Tim Tebow Jersey Angel Wings Halo

Rich (Douglas AK)

Good news for those handgun owners in AZ, you can bring your weapons to the sports bars now. Those arguements will end badly.

Christian (High Point, NC)

Chad: Got to be a Vegas Showgirl.

J.B. (Dunmore, PA)

Hey Chad, did you get something read on SportsNation TV yesterday? I swore I heard your name on the air.

Matt (South Bend, IN)

Bring back Tony Roberts!! PLEASE!!

Robbi (Clinton, Ky.)

I hate Let's Make a Deal.

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

Thank goodness for Justin Verlander. The Tigers can't lose the division crown now . . . wait, Eddie Bonine starts today? Oh boy.

Spelling Police (On Patrol)

Sorry J.B., its uninterrupted. Here's your ticket.

Christian (High Point, NC)

I'm sure LSU is more worried about Georgia right now

Josh (Lincoln, NE)

What exactly would Carolina WANT to remember about September?

Chad (Las Vegas)

It is airing on the same network as TPIR so I was thinking of getting a fat suit, some glasses, and a wig and going as Drew Carey.

Nate (Madison)

I get grossed out the more and more I read about that throat injury that the USC running back had (I'll butcher his first name so didn't bother trying to spell it)

Vicki (Indiana)

I loathe that I'll be another year older this week

Buzzmaster

  (10:05 AM)

Here's to being old!

J.B. (Dunmore, PA)

I never want to see anyone hurt but a win is a win and with the BCS being the way it is, you don't get bonus points for playing a tough team and losing.

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

Listening to Sublime to start the MB today.

Buzzmaster

  (10:06 AM)

I'm sure Justin, or Sam or Timmy or whoever that guys was will be glad to know, so he can mark it down.

Robbi (Clinton, Ky.)

Old is as old does.

Marc (Charlotte)

Stafon? That's a tough one Nate.

Chad (Las Vegas)

Vicki-you're another day older every day.

Ryan (San Diego)

Why do you have to have a costume to watch a show?

Neal (Philly)

outstanding work, Tom!

Rich (Douglas)

I don't enjoy looking at older people. especially in the mirror.

Christian (High Point, NC)

J.B.: Except in the computers.

Scott (Brewtown)

Everyone jokes about Clinton, but from what I can tell I am possibly the oldest coot on this chat.

Green Day (Charlotte)

Wake me up when September ends.

Marc (Charlotte)

Buzz, when is Jay Bilas returning to the SN Chat Lineup?

Buzzmaster

  (10:07 AM)

When the basketball season starts back up.

Robbi (Clinton, Ky.)

I don't think so Scott.

Vicki (Indiana)

good point Chad, I just hate that I'll have to add another year to my age for those who ask how old I am.

Brian (Madison, WI)

So I read the transcript and see that I get blasted. I broke no man/bro code. A guy goes to court one day and Nate takes advantage.

David (Ottawa)

Always late Buzz, always late.

Nate (Madison)

FACT: Milwaukee's City Hall was the world's tallest building from 1885 to 1899

Chad (Las Vegas)

FACT: Milwaukee's Best proves how BAD Milwaukee realy is!

Neal (Philly)

FACT: Buzz is the world's fattest man.

Patrick ( Louisville )

Busy Bee! Buzzy Bee!

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

Brian: Your nonpresence was not a factor. You would have been blasted even if you were here.

Scott (Brewtown)

Leave it to the canadiens, where it's already Thursday to caomplain of tardiness.

Rich (Douglas)

Kathy Ireland was booted from dancing with the stars and now has a tryout as a kicker for the Seahawks.

Clay (Charlotte)

Buzz, good morning, how is everybody?

Bob (Lowell)

Scott(Brewtown), I think I have you.

Tom (West Loop)

Brian, it probably would have been worse had you been here since you would be attempting to defend your breaking of man laws.

Neal (Philly)

nice Necessary Roughness reference, Rich!

Christian (High Point, NC)

FACT: This statement is not a fact ... or is it?

Scott (Brewtown)

Now it's just Milwaukees oldest and most decrepit.

Robbi (Clinton, Ky.)

Just to give you a little insight to my age. My Grandson's high school football team is #1 in the state. I'm proud of that.

Buzzmaster

  (10:10 AM)

You have a grandson and you live in CLINTON, Ky? Coincidence? I don't think so.

Matt (South Bend, IN)

Fingers crossed Buzz, the Chaffeur's License I earned yesterday will eventually lead to driving limos!

Bus Driver (Madison)

Brian, let me know when you want to throw Nate under the bus.

Kathy Ireland (Seattle)

Welcome to foot ... ball!

Teddy Roosevelt (Mount Rushmore)

I hope everyone is watching Ken Burns' National Parks. I'm prominently featured! BULLY!

Marc (Charlotte)

No Julianne Hough means DWTS lost the only reason I'd think about tuning in.

Christian (High Point, NC)

No one should ever ask your age, Vicki. It's not polite.

Clay (Hillsdale, MI)

Nothing wrong with the beast. Its better than Natty.

Buzzmaster

  (10:11 AM)

But both suck.

Marc (Charlotte)

Buzz, the link to the Usain Bolt race doesn't work.

Buzzmaster

  (10:11 AM)

I know. I fixed it. Refresh.

Chad (Las Vegas)

I thought people had grandchildren at 24 in Kentucky. So that means Robbi could be in his mid 30's.

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

Great line, Buzz.

Josh (Lincoln, NE)

I'm an old 25. I think my life is already roughly half over.

Neal (Philly)

You old folks should have a hip cracking competition.

David (Ottawa)

I wonder when that whole 'Canada is a day ahead of us'will get old. My guess is probably around the same time Scott learns to spell.

Buzzmaster

  (10:12 AM)

Never.

Vicki (Indiana)

lol Chad

Robbi (Clinton, Ky.)

The beast is what you drink only after you are already drunk!

Scott (Brewtown)

Well Robbi, if you had child at 18 and child had child at 18 you could be under 40. I however, on Sunday have crossed the line of mid 40's to the slippery slope of late 40's

Clay (Hillsdale, MI)

Touche

Christian (High Point, NC)

Robbi lives in Kentucky, so in theory she could be as young as 42.

Robbi (Clinton, Ky.)

Could we just clear one thing up. I am NOT a man.

Buzzmaster

  (10:13 AM)

I thought we had already established that. What's wrong with you people?

Nate (Madison)

The beast is what you drink when you're 20...errr...I mean 21.

Buzzmaster

  (10:14 AM)

The Beast is what you're legally allowed to buy when you're under 21, because it's technically not beer.

Rich (Douglas)

Note to Eric Mangini... you can't name your book Going Rouge, but you can name it Mismanagement 101.

Bob (Lowell)

Eh Chad, I think Robbi is a her.

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

When has a reference ever gotten old in the MB?

Neal (Philly)

Chad, Robbi is a woman.

Brian (Madison, WI)

A girl confronted me at the bar, I didn't say anything besides "I have no idea" but we laughed and she started assuming things. Nate is the one that lied and the girl already assumed that Nate sucked at life anyways.

Robbi (Clinton, Ky.)

But I am over 40.

J.B. (Dunmore, PA)

I'll be 41 in five weeks. No big deal. I still play video games and like candy. Age is just a number.

Neal (Philly)

FACT: Beast is better than PBR.

Buzzmaster

  (10:15 AM)

And still, they all suck.

Nate (Madison)

Brian forgot to add that the girl is obviously a crazy person for her getting this riled up when I've only talked to her twice in my life.

Neal (Philly)

Nate didn't like her because she's already a US citizen.

Fake Clinton (Rocking Chair)

That's nothing Robbi, my great, great, great, great, grandson is now the starting QB in a seniors league.

Chad (Las Vegas)

Old Style > PBR > Beast.

Christian (High Point, NC)

Tom: I'd have to say the homeless Chris O'Donnell gag is old now that he's on a successful show.

SteveFitz (Cicero, IL)

Please buzz, don't let yesterday's chat continue again today. Brian said his peace now let's move on to something more important like Brett Favre, Michael Vick, the Cowboys or the Yankees.

Christian (High Point, NC)

Yeah, all in favor of not turning today into Nate Chat II?

Nate (Madison)

Neal is picking up where Jeff left off.

Nate (Madison)

Old Style?!?! REALLY?

Neal (Philly)

That's a given, Buzz. If anyone is ever near Easton, PA, they should go to the Weyerbacher brewery. all the free samples you want

Vicki (Indiana)

I say either Mangini or Zorn will be getting a pink slip for Christmas

Buzzmaster

  (10:16 AM)

I'm not sure they'll last that long.

Ryan (San Diego)

Seems like I missed a good one yesterday

Josh (Lincoln, NE)

Thursday is crappy beer night at a local bar. PBR tallboys really aren't that bad. Especially for $1.50.

Tom (West Loop)

I vote Yay for Christian's motion. Day II of Nate chat would be like a full hour of ONB.

J.B. (Dunmore, PA)

So wait, Brian didn't make it to the chat yesterday? This is what I miss when I'm only half-heartedly chatting.

Tom (West Loop)

I'd be surprised if Mangini lasted past Halloween.

Buzzmaster

  (10:17 AM)

Although he's only in Year 1, he might have a longer leash. Zorn on the other hand....

Marc (Charlotte)

Brian, she asked for his number and called. I don't think she thought he sucked at that point.

Christian (High Point, NC)

I hate that people call Natural Light "Natty", because there's a local beer called Natty Greene's which is far, far, far superior.

Jeremy (Boston)

Robbi, maybe you need to give yourself a nickname so we remember.......like Sarah.

Andrew (Boston)

I agree Buzzmaster Mangini and Zorn won't last until Christmas ,. If Zorn losses to Tampa he could be gone by mid next week

Dick Jauron (Yale Reunion)

Cheerio, chaps! I've been the most unsuccessful head coach in league history. What have you chaps been up to?

Buzzmaster

  (10:18 AM)

Yeah, I'm going to say that's totally not accurate. There have been many much more unsuccessful coaches.

Marc (Charlotte)

I didn't know Yale was in England

Buzzmaster

  (10:20 AM)

Sorry...had to run off for a second. Spilled coffee on my shirt.

Vicki (Indiana)

did it get quiet or is the chat posting being slow again?

Buzzmaster

  (10:20 AM)

See above.

Hollywood (Hollywood, CA)

Marc, Yale is in England 2, the sequel.

Nate (Madison)

"Wednesday could be last we see of sun for days" That kind of article headline makes me depressed, knowing those kind of fall/winter days are approaching.

David (Ottawa)

Favorite loser of all time? Mine would be the 1993 Houston Oilers. Up by over 28 pts and still lose to the bills...led by Frank Reich.

Bob (Lowell)

Mangini will land on his feet. He get 1700.00 for a bottle of water.

Robbi (Clinton, Ky.)

You need to get one of those mugs with a top on it.

Tide Stick (Drawer)

Buzz, you need me for those slipups

J.B. (Dunmore, PA)

Auditors! AUGH!

Marc (Charlotte)

Cue the jokes...

Deron (Colorado)

Morning Buzz and Nation.... GO ROCKIES !!!!!1

Christian (High Point, NC)

So you had to run off for a new shirt or a new coffee?

Buzzmaster

  (10:21 AM)

Bathroom to wipe the shirt down.

Vicki (Indiana)

ahh gotcha. Is it a white shirt?

Buzzmaster

  (10:21 AM)

Luckily, no. Blue today.

jill (norman)

Whose looking at your shirt anyway.

Marc (Charlotte)

It was 50 degrees here this morning. Not cool at all, well it was cool, but not in a good way.

Chad (Las Vegas)

Isn't the Yale mascot an English Bulldog?

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

Marty Morninwheg, Rod Marinelli, Bobby Ross (for driving Barry Sanders away). There, I just named three LIONS coaches that were worse than Jauron (who also, probably not coincidentally, coached the Lions).

Nate (Madison)

Buzz...two words. Tide stick.

Buzzmaster

  (10:22 AM)

I'm going to have to bring one of those in.

Chad (Las Vegas)

Nice to know ESPN has a bathroom in the basement.

Scott (Brewtown)

50? I'd be thrilled. It was 36 here this am

Jeremy (Boston)

So, Buzz, were you one of the bristol people to race Bolt?

Buzzmaster

  (10:23 AM)

I was not. I didn't realize they were doing that until too late.

Neal (Philly)

Who would've thought Buzz would let food or drink go to waste?

Chad (Las Vegas)

Speaking of temps. We go from 100 for the past 3 days to a high in the 70's today! I'll take it but a 20 plus degree drop in 1 day isn't the greatest.

Jason (Tampa)

I have had chat withdrawal.. but back in action now

Robbi (Clinton, Ky.)

I had to put on a jacket this morning.

George Bodenheimer (ESPN 27 headquarters)

That bozo Buzz spilled on himself again. Get him outta here. Replace him with that robot from US Cellular commercials.

Josh (Lincoln, NE)

Not sure you can blame Marinelli for Millen drafting 3 straight WRs in the first round.

Christian (High Point, NC)

Were you drinking blue coffee, because otherwise it's still going to stain?

Buzzmaster

  (10:24 AM)

No, but at least the color will hide the stain a little bit. On a white shirt, it would be real obvious.

J.B. (Dunmore, PA)

When speaking of losing NFL Coaches, I nominate Les Steckel as one of the all-time best of the worst.

Ryan (San Diego)

They weren't even trying hard to beat Bolt, that race was just a stunt

Buzzmaster

  (10:24 AM)

No, they were. He just didn't have to try that hard to beat them.

Jeremy (Boston)

Darn, I was trying to see if you were there........I was looking for the person who finished last.

JB (TX)

Rich Kotite has to be on the short list for worst coaches ever.

Ben (Madison, WI)

Are you livin' large Buzz?

Buzzmaster

  (10:24 AM)

Of course...you know, because I'm fat.

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

Buzz is wearing a blue shirt? Cue the "looks like a second Earth from outer space" jokes.

Don (San Francisco)

Buzz, I hope that's the last time you drink from the pot.

J.B. (Dunmore, PA)

Or wear a bib when drinking coffee, Buzz.

Marc (Charlotte)

How much did you spill?

Buzzmaster

  (10:25 AM)

That's the worst part. I was drinking from a travel mug with a top on it and it dribbled out from under the lid. Apparently the seal on it sucks.

Marc (Charlotte)

Ryan, were you mad that Philly Mick won this weekend? I bet you were cursing him and his flip flops.

Jim Tressel (Columbus, OH)

I spill on my shirts all the time. To cover it, I wear a sweater vest.

Robbi (Clinton, Ky.)

Did I see you in the background of the race?

Christian (High Point, NC)

How do you drink your coffee? I imagine you're a cream and sugar guy, you know, because you're fat.

Buzzmaster

  (10:26 AM)

Milk and sugar.

Cisco Server (ESPN)

Buzz, keep that coffee away from me you klutz!

Juan Valdez and his trusty goat (Columbia)

I feel bad for the spilled coffee. A part of me has died.

Robbi (Clinton, Ky.)

There was a large guy in the background.

Marc (Charlotte)

Or you didn't close the lid properly..

J.B. (Dunmore, PA)

Another option: Shirts made out of rubber.

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

The thing I usually spill on my shirts is yogurt. I hate when you open them and they splatter a bit. That is The Suck.

Deron (Colorado)

If you wash your travel cup in the dishwasher you will ruin the seal....

Chad (Las Vegas)

How about Bobby Petrino for worst NFL coach ever?

Ryan (San Diego)

No, I was actually shocked he showed up for a tournament one time this season. Too many casual fridays on the range I guess

Buzzmaster

  (10:27 AM)

Or, you know, caring and worrying about his wife and mother-in-law who are battling breast cancer. Nah, you're probably right on this.

J.B. (Dunmore, PA)

Speaking of Coffee, how many MB FFL players have him claimed from the WW for this week?

Tom (West Loop)

Or you could do what my sister does with my 1 year old nephew: just take off the shirt altogether during meals. Wait, I forgot you are fat.

Brian (Madison, WI)

Tom you have to aim the yogurt away from you so the splatter goes the other way.

Christian (High Point, NC)

Uh oh, it's almost time for someone to ask for ONB....maybe Buzz will ignore the request.

Buzzmaster

  (10:28 AM)

Sure, let's do it....

john d (pa)

ok i dont get it the pirates there team is good but the rotation sucks should they look in to a new pitcher cause mahlom is not getting it done the only one who is is ross

michelle (washington)

Whats with the Seahawks? Remmember when they went to SUPER BOWL 40 well we thought they would we better with T.J. Houshmandzedeh. But what has he done NOTHING.

letisha (GJ, CO)

I hardly hear espn talk about the Minnesota Vikings...You know THERE ARE VIKINGS FANS OUT HERE...and we'd like to hear whats goin on with our team too!

ELO (ORLANDO)

Hello Buzz, and SN, I finally got a job after a year and 1/2 of unemployment. Just wanted to share the good news. I've been working for 2 weeks now.

Zach Rastall (Marinette, Wisconsin)

Buzz is fat.

chaz (sa tx)

buzz.... there is a god. i want this for my birthday...http://www.gratefulpalate.com/index.php?p=Category_11ruckus stay away.

Ray Ray (South Carolina )

South Carolina should be ranked in the college polls houston beat number 5 they get in iowa also South Carolina beat a sec ranked number 4 team and cant get rank why?

Devon (Huntington WV)

Why Dont the Eagles trade Vick to the Dolphins for a draft pick or something. He would be a great fit. And If not , why didnt the Dolphins pick up Garcia?

LaMarr D (Lansing Mi.)

Does anyone other than me find it funny that on Bret Farve's winning T.D. pass on sunday we got every camera angle but the back of the endzone down the line shot that you always get to show both feet were inbounds HMMMM

edward j clair (hornell, ny 14843)

does espn reply to someone whom may have first suggested pigskin picks? or as a business it is not common to give your inspiration an atta-boy/girl? furthermore i would like to remind e-one youth wrestling sign-ups in one month

Rick (Oneonta,NY)

I have been saying that Tom Brady is the second overated quaterback(next to Tony Romo) for a couple of years. Now it looks as if I was right. What are your thoughts?

Tom Maloney (Scranton, Pa.)

I would like to know why Penn State is still Ranked. They were #5 after they played & beat ( Akron, Syracuse,

Buzzmaster

  (10:28 AM)

And that's it.....

Marc (Charlotte)

Ryan, his wife and mother have breast cancer. Perhaps spending some time with them as they fight for their lives is warranted. Talk about a stupid comment.

Ryan (San Diego)

No, not that Buzz. Pre that whole stuff...did nada

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

Wow, Ryan. Turrible.

Vicki (Indiana)

I thought it was his mother, no in-law

jill (norman)

Who showed up for a tournament?

Josh (Lincoln, NE)

Yeah, it's so easy to focus on a game when your wife and mom have cancer. It was all the casual Fridays instead.

Andrew (Boston)

I would say Nick Saban was a bad coach he just quit on the Dolphins didn't he??

Vicki (Indiana)

wohoo Elo! congrats :)

J.B. (Dunmore, PA)

Another bad breakfast idea when wearing good clothes: Don't eat a McDonald's steak, egg, and cheese bagel while driving. I've ruined a few pairs of pants and a couple of shirts from the grease runoff.

Buzzmaster

  (10:30 AM)

I ruined a favorite pair of shorts once when I was younger when I picked up a pizza and put it on my lap on the ride home. That wasn't the smartest thing I've ever done.

Christian (High Point, NC)

Oooh, oooh, I want to pile on Ryan too!

Brian (Madison, WI)

Wonder if Ryan pulled a muscle sticking his foot in his mouth?

Tom (West Loop)

Speaking of Dolphins, Cam Cameron was not so great a head coach. A great coordinator, but an awful head coach.

Marc (Charlotte)

Like win 2 tournaments and finish 2nd at the U.S. Open nada? Right... Keep trying Ryan.

JB (TX)

Tom Brady: not overrated.

Buzzmaster

  (10:31 AM)

And coming from you, that's saying something.

Buzzmaster

  (10:32 AM)

BTW, the shirt is drying a little and the stain is barely noticeable. Thank God it was iced coffee, and more watered down, than the hot stuff.

Christian (High Point, NC)

J.B.: That's why I'd always grab a sausage mcgriddle with the (in my case, bacon egg and cheese) bagel, I'd eat the mcgriddle in the car and save the bagel for when I got to my desk.

jill (norman)

I was reading about the 1970's Oakland Raiders. Wgat great players they did have.

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

For worst Lions coach of all time, I'll go with Marty "I'll take the wind" Morninwheg in a photo finish over Rod "My shovel is sharp" Marinelli.

Tom (West Loop)

Wow. Real classy Angels. Way to pour alcohol on the jersey of a teammate who died because of a drunk driver.

Buzzmaster

  (10:32 AM)

Please, please stop that.

Vicki (Indiana)

love iced coffee

SteveFitz (Cicero, IL)

Tony Romo: Overrated

Adam Morrison (LA)

Charles Barkley is overrated because he has zero championship rings. I, on the other hand, have 1!

Josh (Lincoln, NE)

Tom Brady is also not going to be a Top 5 QB this year.

Robbi (Clinton, Ky.)

Oh here we go....

Nate (Madison)

Real classy? Alcohol didn't kill their teammate, a stupid idiot did.

Rich Rod (Big House)

People who spill on themselves need to get a ShamWow, or a life.

J.B. (Dunmore, PA)

Tom: There is a phone number for folks like you to call regarding the Angels celebration. Here you go: 1-888-GT-OVRIT.

Vicki (Indiana)

I think the Angels players were doing to the jersey what they would've done to Adenhart himself if we was still alive.

Rich Rod (Ann Aroer)

People who drink Iced Coffee need to get lives.

Nate (Madison)

McDonald's Vanilla Iced Coffee, love it!

Christian (High Point, NC)

Wait, I just realized something from yesterday's lunch chat: did someone say "Yom Kippur leftovers"? Was that intentional?

Buzzmaster

  (10:35 AM)

Yes. Isn't there a feast before or after the fast? Therefore the leftovers.

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

I drink Frappucinos. That's all I ever get when I go to Starbucks.

J.B. (Dunmore, PA)

Dunkin' Donuts coffee regular is all I need. I'm there so much I don't even have to order any more. I get to the counter and my coffee is waiting.

Nate (Madison)

Little irked that I'm going to miss some of the Ken Burn's special tonight because of class, the series is pretty sweet...makes me want to roadtrip to Yellowstone next year

Buzzmaster

  (10:36 AM)

DVR.

Robbi (Clinton, Ky.)

Agreed, Vicki.

Scott (Chicago)

Yeah, the Angels players shouldn't drive in cars anymore either because that's where Adenhart was when he died.

Tom (West Loop)

I don't really care. It was on First Take so I thought I'd comment.

Marc (Charlotte)

Buzz, why couldn't you get Usain Bolt to chat?

Buzzmaster

  (10:37 AM)

We begged off of it because his schedule was really tight. Instead someone from our Olympics team did a Q&A with him that should be up on the site soon.

Greg (Ellicott City)

Its ok Buzz, Im here.

Christian (High Point, NC)

Nate: It's probably on again at 10 if you miss it at 8.

Josh (Lincoln, NE)

Seeing as there are no Dunkin Donuts in Nebraska, I was going to try their store-sold drip coffee, but that stuff is expensive.

Christian (High Point, NC)

I guess you're right, Buzz. I never considered the feast part of the same celebration of the fast, but it does make sense.

Vicki (Indiana)

Iove Frappuccinos. Vanilla Bean is the best one.

Tim Tebow (Gville)

So I don't have to be at practice so I figured I'd stop by here. Where am I? Oh may the Lord Jesus be your saviour or you can go sit in 37F. What is my name again?

Usain Bolt (parking lot)

I did this chat watch... see me post... want to see it again.

Nate (Madison)

Ahhhh, that's right. Thanks Christian.

stephanie (cincy)

Bolt talks to fast for Buzz

Vicki (Indiana)

besides, during locker room celebrations, how much beer and champagne actually is drank? It all seems to be poured and sprayed, maybe an occasional swig here and there.

Justin (Ohio)

Hey Buzz, did you do a MNF chat or was it just the espndallas chat? Just curious. I couldn't find it.

Buzzmaster

  (10:39 AM)

There was a chat, but they did it via Cover It Live. So, since they were doing that, I was not needed.

Nate (Madison)

Exactly, last year I remember seeing a video of Mota running around with five or six bottles in his hand.

Lord Stanley's Cup (Pitt)

I can hold a deceiving amount of champagne.

stephanie (cincy)

Concussions are no joke Tim

Clay (Ohio)

usain is a sweet name

Ryan (San Diego)

Vicki, obviously you've never been to a locker room celebration with Nate

Chicago Cubs (not the playoffs)

They have Champagne at celebrations... weird.

Nate (Madison)

My roommate (who's name is on the bill) is yet to call the cable company and get one.....would only be $5 more a month, total, but yeah.

jill (norman)

You young whippersnappers ever hear of Lyle Alzado, Lester Hayes, and John Matuzak. Hayes wore so much stick'em so the NFL banned it.

Justin (Ohio)

I don't feel quite so stupid now. Thx.

Chad (Las Vegas)

So bad thing about living on the west coast. We get USC vs Cal instead of UM vs OU this weekend on ABC.

Josh (Lincoln, NE)

Here's an idea...impersonate your roommate.

Clay (Ohio)

hey buzz, do you think the browns are actually as bad as they have played, same witht the titans

Buzzmaster

  (10:41 AM)

Yes and no.

Marc (Charlotte)

Chad, you're in Vegas. Go to a sports book.

jill (norman)

Boy, did Cal explode!

Ryan (San Diego)

Chad, USC vs Cal is going to be a better game. You're welcome

Tom (West Loop)

Bad thing about living in Chicago: we are forced to watch Northwestern play football instead of Michigan-Michigan State.

Alex (Littleton, CO)

Chad, what's so bad about USC v. Cal....Wouldn't you rather watch a 34-30 game than a 10-7 game?

Justin (Ohio)

I here you Chad. I think we are getting a bad Big 10 game.

Deron (Colorado)

Work on Saturdays, thanks to ESPN360 I get to still see all of the college games

jill (norman)

Well, that is the Suck, Tom.

Ogre (Adams College)

Northwestern? NERDS!!!!!

Vicki (Indiana)

I'm going to the Ohio State @ IU game this Saturday. Got my ticket yesterday :) Since it's my first ever college football game, how early do I need to arrive to the stadium? Game starts @ 7

Buzzmaster

  (10:43 AM)

Depends. Are you tailgating? Noon. Otherwise, maybe 5ish.

Neal (Philly)

Since Indiana is playing, you can arrive at 7.

Robbi (Clinton, Ky.)

I'm skipping CFB Saturday. Going to an arts and crafts festival.

Dave (Tallahassee, FL)

Bad thing about living in Tallahassee: We are forced to watch Florida State play. Bobby needs to retire....Give Jimbo Fisher the reins.

Chad (Las Vegas)

Lady Chad has to work so I have toddler Chad with me. They frown on you bringing a 3 year old to the sportsbook to fetch your beers.

Buzzmaster

  (10:44 AM)

Kid's gotta learn at some point.

Scott (Brewtown)

Tom, it has to be better than watching Illinois. Man is that a crappy team

Milwaukee Brewers (no in playoffs)

We shower players kids with alcohol when we make the playoffs.

Spelling Police (This Chat)

It's Hear Justin. Here's your ticket.

Tom (West Loop)

I am participating in the MBA Cup this weekend. I will exact my revenge on Northwestern by hitting them with kickballs.

Jeremy (Boston)

Not sure when you arrive, but with IU playing, game will be over by 7:20

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

Ouch, Neal. IU can still tailgate and party. We were named the #1 party school as recently as 2005.

Justin (Ohio)

Vicki, if it was in Columbus I would tell you to get by at least 9 in the morning.

Scott (Brewtown)

It's Indiana Vicki. I'm sure the other 12 fans won't pose too much of a delay for you.

jill (norman)

6:55

Josh (Lincoln, NE)

Skipping football for arts and crafts? That's unforgivable. Even for a woman.

SteveFitz (Cicero, IL)

Tom: Northwestern football has been more exciting to watch than Michigan football and I'm not even a NW fan.

Godish (Chicago)

Bad part about living in Chicago is you're still about 320 miles away from the heaping pile known as Detroit.

MBers (This Chat)

College Football > Arts Festival > Watching Paint Dry > Rastall

J.B. (Dunmore, PA)

I'm getting pretty hyped up about my second free weekend of the NFL Ticket this Sunday. No more watching lame Eagles and Steeler games for me. I watch the best game on at that particular time (or the Vikings).

Greg (Ellicott City)

Watching Illinois > watching Maryland.

Chad (Las Vegas)

I didn't say I had a problem with it, the casino's are the one with the problem.

Vicki (Indiana)

ok thanks Buzz. I'm not tailgating myself, though. Maybe walk around the parking lot to see the other tailgating happenings.

Buzzmaster

  (10:46 AM)

You're a chick. Just walk around. I'm sure you'll get invited over for some free food and booze.

Josh (Lincoln, NE)

Wait, wouldn't that be the good part about living in Chicago?

Buzzmaster

  (10:46 AM)

I think he meant he's still only 320 miles away.

Vicki (Indiana)

oh there was a line at the ticket counter. a few non-students as well. at leas they didn't look like students

Tom (West Loop)

Yeah, I mean it's not like Michigan has the 3rd best rushing offense in the country or averages 37 points a game or have had two of their last three games come down to the last couple of minutes...

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

IU is 3-1, and almost beat U of M last weekend. Not so sure that OSU is going to have that easy of a time.

Dave (Tallahassee, FL)

There is nothing, absolutely nothing with bringing a kid to a sports bar....as long as you're not making them pay for your booze.

Robbi (Clinton, Ky.)

I pay for Sunday ticket to be able to watch Steelers and Eagles games.

Fake Vicki (IU Parking lot)

Hello? Anyone here? Hello? Anyone? Anyone? Beuller?

Vicki (Indiana)

I think it'll be a close game

J.B. (Dunmore, PA)

The Illini play Penn State Saturday. They actually have a chance to win that one.

Justin (Ohio)

Wow Tom, exciting wins against IU and a not very good Notre Dame team. Yea!

Nate (Madison)

OSU 28 IU 6

Dave (Tallahassee, FL)

IU parking lot isnt even paved...

Josh (Lincoln, NE)

I hate bye weeks.

Justin (Ohio)

Sorry for the "here"

Gary (Memphis)

Buzz in the state of Ohio, which team is better Cincinatti or ohio state (football)?

Scott (Brewtown)

Penn State 114 Illinos 2

Chad (Las Vegas)

I pay for Sunday Ticket so I can watch Saints games. This might be the 1 year that I get a good ROI.

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

All right, just because everybody is ganging up on my alma mater: IU 35 OSU 28. Take that!

Robbi (Clinton, Ky.)

I can't believe there are people who have never been to a college game. Wow.

Brian (Madison, WI)

Game of the weekend: Wisconsin @ Minnesota. I might be a little biased.

Tom (West Loop)

Wins are wins.

Alex (Littleton, CO)

Fact: The best part about Chicago are the dogs and italian beef. The worst part about Chigaco is Cutler....or Joakim Noah's hair.

Ryan (San Diego)

USC 80, Cal 1

Rich Rodriguez (Ann Arbor)

People who pile up 4 wins vs. directional schools, IU, and an overrated Notre Dame need to get...oh wait.

Jim (Del)

Nate you got it backwards again...IU28 OSU6

chubbs (ga)

so..... anyone watch the clevland show.... not about the home of the indians as i thought it would be

J.B. (Dunmore, PA)

Robbi: Do you have DirecTV? They've been calling subscribers offering them the ticket and more channels for less money than people are currently paying for the basic package.

Chad (Las Vegas)

Cal 27- USC 23

Buzzmaster

  (10:50 AM)

Go have your 3 year old place that bet for you.

Robbi (Clinton, Ky.)

Yes, and I'm calling them when I get home!

stephanie (cincy)

Viki, make sure you wear Red. Buckeye fans who will out number the IU fans are wearing Gray.

Nate (Madison)

So Michigan loses games and they get ripped, they win games they are suppose to win and they get ripped. Must be nice.

Justin (Ohio)

Leftover ribs for lunch.

Alex (Littleton, CO)

@California People who think USC is the best: Hey, you lost to Washington, the Detroit Lions of College football.

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

So, let's see, during the last 7 minutes of chat time, people have bashed the hell out of both of my alma maters (one of which is a "directional school") and Detroit. SOOOO glad I'm here today.

Vicki (Indiana)

I got a white sweatshirt with red lettering

Chad (Las Vegas)

Thank you very much but I place my own bets. Only 3 weeks in but a very respectable little ove .600 winning percentage.

Nate (Madison)

OSU shutout an Illinois offense that has some pretty good playmakers, at least more then what IU has. They also scored 30 points in a monsoon. Sorry, don't see much hope for IU.

Scott (Brewtown)

Lunch: Chicken salad sandwich with baked lays chips and h2o.

Alex (Littleton, CO)

Lunch: White Pizza

Neal (Philly)

Lunch: chicken stir fry

daniel (cincinnati,oh)

i am good gut

Robbi (Clinton, Ky.)

Lunch: Ham sandwich, unsweet tea.

J roc (Balt)

Why does the ravens never get their due respect?? They are never talked about but seem to do the most

Buzzmaster

  (10:53 AM)

I hate, hate, people who play the disrespect card. Come up with a new whine, will you?

Christian (High Point, NC)

It's Crow Bias, J roc.

Greg (Ellicott City)

Lunch: sausage and green pepper calzone.

Tom (West Loop)

Lunch: I am going to eat something so hot it clears out my sinuses. It's worked before so I'm hoping it will work again.

Casinos (Vegas)

Good, that Chad guy has won just enough to think he can win....now to take his rent money.

SteveFitz (Cicero, IL)

Lunch: Healthy

Justin (Ohio)

The Baltimore Browns are not to be discussed.

Josh (Lincoln, NE)

Wasn't J roc a character in the Wire?

Chad (Las Vegas)

Is J roc smoking crack with Marion Barry? Balt gets a TON of respect. They are number 1 in the power rankings.

Rickey (Henderson)

Ravens are good, but rickey is the greatest

Alex (Littleton, CO)

Wait, wasn't Grason supposed to be gone?

stephanie (cincy)

I see the Ravens getting tons of love. and nice touch with italics Buzz

Christian (High Point, NC)

I'd get more whine posts in, but Buzz disrespects me.

Vicki (Indiana)

lunch: ham and swiss sandwich

SteveFitz (Cicero, IL)

Is Vegas taking action on NFL teams that might be blacked out this weekend? I might get in on that action.

J.B. (Dunmore, PA)

When Buzz goes italics on you, you are in big trouble.

Alex (Littleton, CO)

Hey Buzz, can only you do italics? I just find caps so overbearing.

Robbi (Clinton, Ky.)

Someone here is a losser.

Chad (Las Vegas)

.600 is a very good winning percentage. The people that think they can do better than that on a consistant basis are either fooling themselves or just plain lying.

Josh (Lincoln, NE)

Why wouldn't Vegas take action on blacked out games? They're only blacked out locally.

jimbo (fla)

lunch: coconut crusted red snapper with a mango habanero salsa and dirty rice

JB (TX)

Lunch: $5 footloooong. And I have SC, OSU, and Miami this wknd. It's 73 degrees here, and gas is only 2.25/gal. Oh yeah, and Buzz is fat.

J.B. (Dunmore, PA)

Lunch: A small twist on my usual. Grilled chicken wrap with pepper jack cheese...and Frank's hot sauce.

Jeremy (Boston)

Aren't the Ravens #1 in the power rankings? Did you want them higher than that?

Buzzmaster

  (10:56 AM)

Oh yeah, the # situation has been taken care of, and supposedly the & as well.

Scott (Brewtown)

Buzz using italics is parent using kids full names.

J roc (Balt)

no no sorry I meant just the talk time, It seems that they are passed over with a few words but never really considered a "talk about team"

Buzzmaster

  (10:57 AM)

My comment still stands. Give me a break.

Dave (Tallahassee, FL)

Lunch: Who needs lunch? I ate a huge breakfast.

Chad (Las Vegas)

I hate JB. I pay $2.89 for premium and that is at Costco. Weather here is better though.

Jdub (Alabama)

Hey robbi ROLL TIDE!

Robbi (Clinton, Ky.)

Gosh JB just did it all in one fell swoop.

Christian (High Point, NC)

Lunch: The remainder of the hoot dogs.

Justin (Ohio)

All who want to go until noon today stop typing now.

Losser (MB Chat)

Lunch: Hoot Dog

Christian (High Point, NC)

Fact: Being talked about has no effect on a team's performance.

Marc (Charlotte)

Buzz, you can't use a plus sign. It doesn't register.

Buzzmaster

  (10:58 AM)

Has anyone tested that out in the last day or two? Supposedly things were fixed just the other day.

Brian (Madison, WI)

.600 is a good record. I've had a brutal two week stretch so I'm taking this weekend off of betting and might try it again next weekend.

Jeremy (Boston)

Hands the Hammer of Thor to Buzz....for old time sakes.

Nate (Madison)

I think gas is $2.30 something here.....hoot dogs are for lossers

Christian (High Point, NC)

I thought a plus sign worked now?

Robbi (Clinton, Ky.)

Can you see that?

Marc (Charlotte)

ONB Buzz = Pulse

Buzzmaster

  (10:59 AM)

Guess not.

Chad (Las Vegas )

_ & # does it work?

stephanie (cincy)

Lunch: What they Buckeyes are having on Sat. Hoosiers

Chubbs (GA)

have a good day you lossers!!!

jimbo (fla)

here is a plus sign:

Christian (High Point, NC)

Ye old character test: '~!@#$%^&*()-_= [{]}\|;:'",/?

J.B. (Dunmore, PA)

Great to be back in the chat uninterrupted today. Well done folks. Have a great day, stay out of trouble, and I'll see you back here tomorrow (holding up four fingers) for our first chat of the final quarter of the year. Peace.

Brian (Madison, WI)

3 down, 2 to go.

Buzzmaster

  (11:00 AM)

Thanks for stopping by everyone. We'll be back again tomorrow for The Office Thursday. Until then, stay classy SportsNation!

J.B. (Dunmore, PA)

2 2 = bacon. Did that work?

Nate (Madison)

Utah coeds terrorized by panty bandit? Another great headline, thanks CNN.....haha, wow.

Alex (Littleton, CO)

Rocktober, here we come! Thanks Brewcrew!

Greg (Ellicott City)

Stay fat Buzz.

Marc (Charlotte)

Have a good day everyone. Nate, try to stay out of the way of the bus.
