Buzzmaster (10:00 AM)
Gooooooooooooood morning!
Rich (Douglas AK)
The Rush Rams are looking at moving back to Cali, Cali, Cali...
Rich (Douglas AK)
Anyone want to take home the first blockbuster of the summer? Wolverine is up for adoption.
SteveFitz (Cicero, IL)
Congrats to the Twinkies. They deseve it. Now they'll get trashed by the Yankees.
Christian (High Point, NC)
So I was in the doctor's office this morning, and the SI cover story from two weeks ago was about the Detroit Tigers and what the owner has done. After reading it, I felt really guilty about the Twins winning. There has to be something to kill the SI cover curse, right? Maybe we need to put it out of business somehow ...
Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)
Started the chat with a bit of Kenny Rogers, by the way.
Scott (Brewtown)
Good Morning! Happy Hump Day!
Matt (IN)
Good morning everyone. If last night's game is any indication of what this post season will be like, prepare to be entertained. Great game.
Buzzmaster (10:02 AM)
I would just like to announce that there are no breaking news trades involving myself....there are also no breaking news contract signings involving myself.
Burning Trash Can (Detroit)
Too bad the Tigers couldn't afford a decent LF that can catch.
Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)
This is going to hurt for a long time. The 2006 World Series still hurts. Even the 1987 ALCS still hurts (not-so-coincidentally, also a loss to the Twins). Congrats to the Twins, though, and good luck.
Buzzmaster (10:03 AM)
I hope you mean the entire collapse and not the loss. After the collapse, they didn't deserve to be in the playoffs anyway.
Ben (NC)
Tell me it not true. Rush to Conclusions Limbaugh a Ram owner. That is just unAmerican.
J.B. (Dunmore, PA)
Wouldn't the Giants have been a better fit for a guy who got in trouble at a night club?
Braylon Edwards (Flight to New York)
Thank God I'm finally out of Cleveland. The media there was ridiculous. It will be nice to finally go somewhere out of the spotlight
Clay (Hillsdale, MI)
Morning Buzz. Great game last night, my Tigers made way too many mistakes and didn't deserve to win.
Christian (High Point, NC)
Why would anyone have a problem with Limbaugh owning the Rams? His group is local and wouldn't move the team unless other possible owners. Are people afraid they won't get subsidized cheap seats or something?
tom* (parkville, md)
Congrats to the Twins for beating my Tigers and stomping my heart flat.
Marc (Charlotte)
Buzz, nice chat lineup today.
J.B. (Dunmore, PA)
Good morning, Buzz Nation. I'm the boss for today so I will be her chatus uninterruptus.
JB (TX)
Tom might be the only guy I know w/Kenny Rogers and Wu Tang in his iPod.
Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)
Of course I mean the entire collapse. I mean they were up SEVEN GAMES. Turrible.
Buzzmaster (10:04 AM)
All right. All right. Put down the burning tire and crow bar.
Godish (Chicago)
Too bad Rush wasn't around to buy the Chicago Rush arena football team.
Scott (Brewtown)
While part of me thimks ESPN is infiltrating everything in our lives like the CIA, I must admit, it's pretty cool to bypass the IT nerds here at work and be able to listen to you on my iPhone.
Christian (High Point, NC)
I have no idea what the heck J.B. is trying to say, and I took two semesters of pig latin.
Marc (Charlotte)
Ben, would you prefer that the government owned the Rams?
Nate (Madison)
Limbaugh is just a bigot. I think that's what people have a problem with. Sorry, I just call them as I see them.
LeBron James (Cleveland)
You're welcome, Browns fans.
Buzzmaster (10:05 AM)
And now starting at WR for the Cleveland Browns....LeBron James! Those commercials weren't all fake.
Clinton (Indianapolis)
I don't care for Limbaugh's politics at all, but hey if he wants to own a team, so be it.
Tom (Southport)
So, what will be Stephanie be hating on today? Monday was cash bars and yesterday was the University of Michigan. I'm very intrigued.
Clay (Hillsdale, MI)
Buzz, it's Detroit, not East Lansing. There will be no burning couches.
Buzzmaster (10:05 AM)
That's only because there are no couches to burn.
Robbi (Clinton, Ky.)
Good morning. I'd like to say that I simply DO NOT like Rush Limbaugh, although I like his hometown.
Matt (IN)
When LeBron signs with the Nets or Knicks his posse and Braylon can resume their fighting.
Clay (Charlotte)
Good Morning Buzz, 72 hours with no nicotine, I'm ill as hell but proud of myself.
Tom Brady (Foxboro)
Buzz you're phat
Josh (Lincoln, NE)
Yeah, Detroit's going to burn what's left of their infrastructure.
Gary (Memphis)
So far it has been an eventful week here at the MB. What is on the HATE FOR A DAY lineup? How about sit down dinners/buffet style wedding receptions vs. brown bagging it?
Luis (New York)
Yanks don't have to face Verlander
J.B. (Dunmore, PA)
To translate into MB speak: I'm here for the entire chat today without distraction...ooh look at the butterfly!
Matt (IN)
I couldn't care less about Rush buying the Rams. They will still suck.
Robbi (Clinton, Ky)
Can I say this also? Go Cardinals!!
tom* (parkville, md)
As a Michigan State grad I can tell you true: The nothing like a steak grilled on a burning couch.
Cleveland fans (Cleveland)
Hey Lebron, instead of accepting thanks for getting another player run out of town, how about win a title
Ryan (San Diego)
Is that midget that Braylon punched the guy in the commercials with Lebron that has the Kid N Play cd? All State or something it was for
Matt (IN)
Buzz I wouldn't post Tom Brady again. It would be considered coming too close to him and you'll get flagged.
Scott (Brewtown)
Looks like the Pack is gonna sign Mark Tauscher. It's really bad when I guy who hasn't even worked out since blowing an acl in January is considered a savior.
Jim Tressel (Columbus, OH)
There's no hate for sweater vests, that much I know.
stephanie (cincy)
Today I think I will go with idiots who spill coffee in the kitchen and don't clean it up. As the only woman in the office, this smacks of "it's a woman's job to clean up"
Buzzmaster (10:09 AM)
Do you clean it up? If you do, you're only supporting their behavior. Go out to get your coffee and let the slobs take care of it.
Greg (Ellicott City)
Alright, who had idiots who spill coffe in the kitchen and dont clean it up? anyone?
J.B. (Dunmore, PA)
My direct report just asked me if he could have this coming Monday off. I told him no problem since we are closed for the holiday anyway.
Buzzmaster (10:10 AM)
You shouldn't tell him about the holiday. That way he'll think you're a cool boss for giving him the day.
Nate (Madison)
Stephanie, I think you should also make everyone lunch.
John (Aurora, IL)
Does anyone realize it isn't just Brady that gets penalties called? The rules work for everyone folks, don't hate cuz they won 3 super bowls.
Clinton (Indianapolis)
Not me. I had "people who use speaker phones in their cubicle."
Clay (Charlotte)
Grason, as always, a little late to the party.
Eric Mangini (Cleveland)
I din't have the choice to trade Braylon, the rams are so awful we might not get the first pick
Brett (Minnesota)
How ya like me now? I can win football games and baseball games and wear wranglers better than Chuck Norris. (I DID go there)
Clay (Charlotte)
Thanks steph, assume that all men are sexists...way to go progress.
J.B. (Dunmore, PA)
He already likes me...I think. We laughed about the whole thing.
JB (TX)
Man, someone needs to talk to the guys in steph's office. People who work with her have been known not to survive the workday. Clean up the coffee, fellas. I'm just sayin...
Robbi (Clinton, Ky)
Just pour yours down the front of the guys shirt, Steph.
Tom (Southport)
Do they assume that a woman will do it, or just that someone else will? I'm guessing the latter.
Office Lackey (Kitchen)
Oh Damn! I spilled coffee....oh well Steph will get it.....*out of corner running with butcher knife* Clean up your own damn coffee or I'll stab ya!
Ryan (San Diego)
I spill dry oatmeal sometimes on the ground but I dont clean it up. You realize how hard that would be? Little oats go everywhere, I have better things to do with my time...like this chat
Jack (NB Canada)
Ovechkin on pace to break Gretzky's records.
Tom Brady (Foxboro)
Actually, the rules are a little different for me......wink, wink
Nate (Madison)
MC Hammer is Crabtree's mentor? Wow.
Clinton (Indianapolis)
*hangs head* I had to look up what next Monday is. Major brain-fart on my part.
willie (topeka basement)
wow i really hope edwards pays off for the jets. thats a lot for a troubled guy not reaching his full potential
Louis (Fredericton, NB)
I would think of it more as a lazy act than a sexist act. Most men I know (me included) couldn't care less about a tiny spill. Women have a much lower threshold for those kind of things
J.B. (Dunmore, PA)
Dad just called to tell me he's going to the Bronx for Game 1 tonight. Lucky guy.
Ruckus (sa tx)
hey steph, I'll come clean up all the spills at your office if you let me in the trash
Clay (Hillsdale, MI)
Reminds me of the microwave mess in The Office. I think a good note posted above the mess would work nicely.
Knicks Fan (NY)
Thanks Jets, you just ruined our chance at Lebron
Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)
I never get these "government holidays" off. So I was right there with you, Clinton.
David (Ottawa)
Crabtree vs. Edwards in a fight, who wins? I take Edwards, he's 1-0 aganist 130 pound guys.
Clay (Hillsdale, MI)
Why would any office get Columbus Day off? The man oppressed and killed hundreds, plus the Vikings were here first
Buzzmaster (10:15 AM)
Well, if we're going that route, then North America really didn't need to get "discovered." I'm sure the people here already kinda already knew they were here.
Clay (Charlotte)
Tom, you're a lawyer, don't you guys make your own schedule anyway?
stephanie (cincy)
Clay, I believe I was only referencing the sexists I work with not the entire male population. And since no one else has ever cleaned up, yeah, I think they expect me to. I will take Buzz's advice and not clean up and bring a full report on the outcome tomorrow
Nate (Madison)
Did Louis just reject a sexist claim then complete his thought with a generalization?
Clay (Charlotte)
willie, I'm sure he will have no problem reaching his full potential of dropping passes.
Scott (Brewtown)
Just remember, we're celebrating a guy next Monday, who in reality, got LOST, and stumbled onto America
Buzzmaster (10:16 AM)
If he gets you a day off, does it really matter what he did?
Alberto (Bridgewater, NJ)
Why the hate on brady?
Luis (New York)
Edwards, he punched someone out according to reports
SteveFitz (Cicero, IL)
There's nothing worse than people who rinse their dish out in the sink and the food on the dish sits in the drain.
Christopher Columbus (Explorer Hall of Fame)
Whatever Clay, everybody know that Christopher Columbus is the greatest explorer of all-time
Nate (Madison)
Buzz, that's why I think it's funny when those protesters right now claim they want their country back. Well I'm pretty sure the Native American's have something to say about that.
Lane Kiffin (Knoxville)
Look people, Columbus and his crew had the flu, back off.
Terry Tate (Office Linebacker)
Steph, just give me a call. I'll straighten out the men in your office.
J.B. (Dunmore, PA)
Clay: I work for a financial institution. We get all of the government holidays off. On the downside, if I want Black Friday off, I need to use a vacation day because we are open.
Mark (Boston)
Rough week, Steph?
Tom (Southport)
Clay, don't forget he got lost and thought he was going to India but ended up here, thus causing the incorrect use of the term "Indian" for hundreds of years.
Marco Polo (Explorer HOF)
Excuse me, Chris? I'd like to have a word with you.
Ben (Madison, WI)
Hey Buzz, 10 cent wings at Brother's tonight. You interested?
Buzzmaster (10:18 AM)
Sure, go grab tens of dollars worth and ship them out here.
Kanye West (The Nina)
I have to agree with Chris, that was one of the greatest explorations of all time
fred (omaha )
is this what we have degenerated to? bring back reports on coffee spill cleanups. by the way steph. what's the address of your office?
Chad (Terre Haute, IN)
I have got to voice this opinion being that I am a 49ers fan from the day I can remember. I remember Joe Montana, Jerry Rice, Ronnie Lott, Steve Young, etc...I'm not sure this is good with the holdout Crabtree, let me be clear, I hope this guy is great I think hes missed to much time and tried to get more than worth so I think this is going to hurt him this yearIf I were the coach, and Mike is doing a stellar job I'm not sure how much I would play him...thoughts and debate opened
Josh (Lincoln, NE)
Is Brother's as terrible in Madison as it is in Lincoln?
Tom (Southport)
I used to work at a financial institution where we got Columbus Day off, but then they decided it was going to be a team building day so we got screwed.
David (Ottawa)
Canada gets monday off for "Thanksgiving" I don't get why we are giving thanks, but i'll take it.
Clinton (Indianapolis)
There was a Brothers at the alma mater...more bar fights there than all the other bars put together.
Ben (Madison, WI)
Sorry, no carry-out.
Christian (High Point, NC)
I'm surrounded by people who actually believed their 6th-grade world history book. Ok, to make it easy: pick up Pastwatch: The Redemption of Christopher Columbus by Orson Scott Card. It's a science fiction/alternative history novel that paints a great picture of 15th-century America and what actually happened (except for the Science Fiction part).
Scott (Brewtown)
I just thought Marco Polo was a game you played when you were 7 years old
Luis (New York)
The Twins dont have enough pitching talent to beat the Yankees
J.B. (Dunmore, PA)
In honor of the disaster that became the Detroit Tigers, how about some ONB, Buzz?
Buzzmaster (10:21 AM)
Let's do it.....
Tone (dallas)
Can anybody tell me Charles Barkley's twit account?
Mark (Ann Arbor)
If Randy Marsh gets a playoff game it's a joke after his performance last night! He should never work an important game ever again.
rich (cerritos)
Since the dodgers have a proven cheater "MANNY" on their team, and they won games early in the year while he was cheating. If they win it all, should the records show an astrick in the record book?
Andrew Lord (Marshall, MI)
Give it up to the Twins for getting the hits, but you also have to tip your hat to the home plate umpire for assists. Most notably, the blown HBP call on Brandon Inge with bases loaded. But what better way for the Metrodome to go out on for the season than a Minnesota win.
jay (california)
michelle beadle is my love of my life i love you
jon (maryland)
how do u start a season, i was a little late i just started made an account
Miguel Cabrera (Detroit)
Brian and Nate have nothing on me! .026 baby!
Jason (Havelock, NC)
Why are the Vikings higher than the Saints in the power rankings? I know it's just one spot, and the Vikings are a good team, but the Saints really showed last week that their new D is for real and that they can get it done on the ground as well in the air.
Jason (Ellicott City, MD)
Since my lunch is at midnight now...I had a sandwich, soda, and cheez its.
Jason (Havelock, NC)
I picked up the 9ers defense last week and it payed off big time. Are they safe to play again this week or should i pickup another team?
RAYGORDON REID ( LITTLETON COLORADO 80165)
MY COMMENT AT 10.35 AM NOW BUZZ BEAT NFL GAME THIS SUNDAY BRONCOS PATROITS
aziz (new jersey)
are u kidding me? if B.edwards cant stay outta trouble in ohio.how can he stay away from the crap that goes on in NY? the NYPD is just waiting for this dude. wait and see!!! they got him in thier morning meetings already!!!
Ron (Va)
Wisconsin 27 Ohio state 13..The score does not represent just how futile the buckeye offense plays.
Buzzmaster (10:22 AM)
And that's it....
J.B. (Dunmore, PA)
I read that post about Randy Marsh and couldn't help but think of the South Park episode where Stan's dad got into a fist fight at every one of those Little League playoff games.
Ryan (San Diego)
.026 is under the legal limit...ONB fail
Nate (Madison)
"Lies My Teacher Told Me: Everything Your American History Textbook Got Wrong" VERY good book that shines lights on where history textbooks gloss over things such as Columbus, President Wilson, etc.
Robbi (Clinton, Ky)
Went to this really good place to eat last night. Appetizer, 2 entrees, and 2 margaritas, total bill 23.00. Spectacular!
Ben (Madison, WI)
Isn't Randy Marsh the father of Stan from South Park?
Scott (Brewtown)
twit account? I don't know why, but that made me laugh.
Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)
Sneak the wings out in your pants, Ben. I'm sure Buzz isn't above eating 3 day old wings that you smuggled out in your pants. You know, because Buzz is fat.
Nate (Madison)
Brothers is the bar where all the underagers go at night. I used to think it was fun when I was younger, but now the weak drinks and the fact it makes me feel old have turned me away....possibly for good.
Christian (High Point, NC)
Isn't "ONB fail" redundant?
Josh (Lincoln, NE)
That book is as full of inaccuracies as any history textbook.
Michelle Beadle (Bristol)
Lay off Jay! I'm Buzz's!
fred (omaha)
Nate, there is nothing wrong with a bar full of underagers.
Scott (Brewtown)
60 mph winds last night took out the Halloween express tent at the fairgrounds. The owner of the store said it cost him 60k. 60k?!?! for a tent?
Robbi (Clinton, Ky)
Thanks Christian for posting my thoughts.
Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)
Miggy was at .26. Not .026.
J.B. (Dunmore, PA)
A few years ago some stand-up comedian, who I can't recall right now, went to a school and did a whole routine on how U.S. History was all wrong. It was a great show.
Nate (Madison)
The comedian was Robert Wuhl and the specials were Assume The Position (I, II)
JB (TX)
Other JB, the comedian you're thinking of is Robert Wuhl, aka Arliss.
Scott (Chicago)
Fact: History is written by those that won
stephanie (cincy)
Layoff my buckeyes. OSU 44 Wisconsin 7 Final answer.
Christian (High Point, NC)
Josh should write a book: Lies My Lies My Teacher Told Me Book Told Me
Ben (Madison, WI)
My history teacher always said "Those who forget the past are doomed to repeat it." Then he left because some people threw bouncy balls at him.
Matt (IN)
And according to Robert Wuhl, candlesticks make a nice gift.
stephanie (cincy)
Next in my hate list: Fake posters
Josh (Lincoln, NE)
Or maybe Dana Carvey.
Chris (MPLS)
No way Inge got hit by that pitch. The ball didn't even change direction, so the ump made the right call. Who cares if it hits your stinkin' jersey.
Buzzmaster (10:29 AM)
It's great. It just gives the sour grapes people something to complain about. You're upset with the ump? How about the Tigers win the game in regulation? Or, better yet, how about the Tigers don't lose a 3 game lead with 4 games to play?
Clay (Charlotte)
Chris, you're getting sports in my history...or history in my sports.
Clinton (Indianapolis)
Why are you even talking about it, Chris? Your team won.
Josh (Lincoln, NE)
Yeah, my bad on the Carvey/Wuhl thing.
Josh (Lincoln, NE)
People on my hate list? People who talk waaaay too loudly at the office for no particular reason.
Matt (IN)
I thought it looked like Inge got hit, but it was hard to say. I notice Marsh said his replays were inconclusive. I bet he wouldn't say that about the replay of his called strike 3 on Cabrera that was clearly outside.
Bob (Lowell)
Could the resident lawyers look into mb restraining orders?
Robbi (Clinton, Ky)
Steph's hate list is as long as Santa's gift list.
Justin (St Paul)
Plus Inge had like a XXXL jersey on. That thing was flapping all over the place
Wooderson (Dazed And Confused)
That's why I like these girls at Brothers. I keep getting older and they stay the same age.
RAY GORDON REID ( ATLANTA GA 30322)
MY COMMENT AT 10.30 AM NOW BUZZ SORRY JAY CALIFORNIA BUT MICHELLE BEADLE IS MY SECRET GIRL FRIEND
Christian (High Point, NC)
Actually, we have a tremendous amount of history written by those that lost. Jefferson Davis wrote a giant memoir, Longstreet's memoirs are still considered an important Civil War source, and the British author books about the American Revolution almost as frequently as Americans do.
Braylon Edwards (NY)
Steph, Hows your day?
Ben (NC)
My hate list includes people who can't control their hate and share it with us.
Clay (Charlotte)
On my hate list, my accounting department in general.
Reggie (Boston)
So much hate today...where's the love people?
Clay (Charlotte)
RGR, you're like Bigfoot, we're going to have to see proof of your existance before you can have a girlfriend.
Cody (Jacksonville)
I didn't see the pitch but if it hit his jersey no matter what size it was its a HBP. Regardless the tigers just became the first team to blow a 3 game lead with 4 games left to play.. thats much bigger than one pitch.
Ryan (San Diego)
Christian...no, dont do that
Braylon Edwards (NY Jets)
I'll take a swing at all you punks....assuming that you are all 5'7" and 135 pounds.
Tom (Southport)
On my hate list: the financial aid department at my grad school. It's been a month and a half since school started. Give me my money!
Chris (MPLS)
How many people in here are at work and over the age of 30?
Robbi (Clinton, Ky.)
My hate list: people that bother me during the MB.
tom* (parkville, md)
My hate list: cats, Nazis, gravity, cats, and cats.
Clinton (Indianapolis)
*ducks down, hoping Clay doesn't recognize me*
stephanie (cincy)
Raises hand for at work and over 30
tom* (parkville, md)
Alright, Clay! Good to no not smoking didn't kill your sense of humor.
Christian (High Point, NC)
I don't have a hate list. I do have an enemies list, though.
Greg (Ellicott City)
At work, yes. over 30, no.
Robbi (Clinton, Ky)
Me Chris.
tom* (parkville, md)
(Raises hand) At work, over 30.
Indiana Jones (Unknown)
I HATE SNAKES!
Louis (Fredericton, NB)
I'm at work, but under 30
Mike (Las Vegas, NV) [via mobile]
whats up with these idiots that thought miguel cabrera had a .026 drinking level. it was at .26, over 3x the legal amount.
Jim (New York)
Nazis, Tom? Obviously noone likes them but who has them on their hate list? Have you ever met a Nazi?!?!
Buzzmaster (10:35 AM)
Because in the off chance you run into one, you want to make sure you know where you stand with them. So, you can look at your list and know what's up.
Ryan (San Diego)
I'm hating work at work while under 30
Buzzmaster (10:35 AM)
Get used to it Snow Ball. You'll be doing it for the next 50 years.
J.B. (Dunmore, PA)
(Raising hand for Chris' question.)
Clay (Charlotte)
At work but under 30, but age is just a number man.
Robbi (Clinton, Ky)
What's wrong with cats? I love cats.
Nate (Madison)
I also hate something that Indiana Jones hates. I hate people without tickets (throwing Nazi off of a zeppelin)
Dave (vt)
My grandpa said he met a nazi, then stabbed him in the heart. I may have made this up.
SteveFitz (Cicero, IL)
FYI to those in my office that want something done. Don't send a request to the entire department thinking it will get done quicker. We'll all assume the other guy is doing it and it will never get done. Idiots!!!
Miguel Cabrera (Parts Unknown)
I typed .026, so sue me I'm wasted. Plus I have a scratch on my face from a dog.
Clay (Hillsdale, MI)
Ryan, you live in San Diego. Life should be great, or so I hear
Louis (Fredericton, NB)
Wasting a hour a day for 50 years. Sounds good
tom* (parkville, md)
Jim, they're everywhere. Everywhere, I tell ya'.
Ryan (San Diego)
Snow Ball?
Grandpa (Springfield)
I never thought I could shoot down a German plane ... but last year I proved myself wrong.
Ryan (San Diego)
Oh life is great in San Diego...when you're not in an office
tom* (parkville, md)
I'm actually surprised that of the five things on my list, I caught hell for Nazis.
Dave (RI)
wow.. somewhere this chat took the wrong turn today.
Marc (Charlotte)
Steph would probably stab a Nazi if she met one, but then again Steph is all about stabbing people.
Clay (Charlotte)
Ryan, you have seen Clerks too many times.
Tom (Southport)
I don't know if Nazis would hate me. After all, they did steal a major symbol of my religion and use it as a symbol of their movement.
Chuck Norris (Texas)
I shot down a German plane by pointing my finger and yelling "bang"
Ogre (Adams College)
I hate nerds!
Henry Jones, Sr. (Plane)
Son, I'm sorry...they got us.
willie (topeka basement)
wow
Buzzmaster (10:38 AM)
Every time I see Topeka, I read Topanga.
Snoopy (Flying Dog house)
I shot down the Red Baron! And he turned into a pizza!
Loudspeaker in Office (Cincy)
Clean up by the copy machine. Coffee spill
stephanie (cincy)
I am curious how my witnessing a stabbing has turned me into a stabber.
Chris (MPLS)
How warm is it in SD? I'm in an office and it's 40 degrees outside, I'd rather be here.
Chris (MPLS)
Topanga, now there's the crush of my childhood.
willie (topeka basement)
she was hot
Robbi (Clinton, Ky)
If very many people read the chat today, we could all get committed.
Buzzmaster (10:39 AM)
Always.
Clinton (Indianapolis)
Tom's a Buddhist? Or am I thinking of the wrong religion?
Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)
I step away for 2 minutes and the chat turns to Nazis.
Christian (High Point, NC)
Can anyone actually ever see Clerks "too many times"? Despite all the imitators over the past decade-and-a-half (including Kevin Smith himself), it still holds up pretty well.
Tom (Southport)
Man, I loved Topanga.
Christian (High Point, NC)
Boy Meets World was a great show, Buzz.
Barack (Washington DC)
I declare the second Monday in October to now be named Buzzmaster Day!
Reggie (Boston)
Because you said something about stabbing someone yesterday, Steph.
willie (topeka basement)
boy meets world right
Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)
Oh, man, Topanga. The only girl who could rival Winnie Cooper.
J.B. (Dunmore, PA)
So Buzz watched that show with the brother of the kid who played Kevin Arnold on 'The Wonder Years.' Got it.
Ryan (San Diego)
I'm in an office, it's 70 degrees in here and the high outside today is expected to be 70. A little colder than the normal 78 or so
tom* (parkville, md)
Don't Topeka and Topanga merge to play World Cup Soccer.
Nate (Madison)
Hinduism
Clinton (Indianapolis)
steph, it's the same process that turned me into an old man because I admitted to playing bingo, the same process that turned Robert into a jailbird because he ate lunch at a prison cafeteria. People just run with things.
Greg (Ellicott City)
Clinton plays bingo?
JB (TX)
Topanga is back on TV, some kind of Talk Soup knockoff on E! She's not that funny, but still cute.
Tom (Southport)
Tom, are you forgetting about Samantha Micelli? Or Jamie from Charles in Charge? Those were definitely the top 4.
Ryan (San Diego)
There was a drug bust in San Diego and all of a sudden I'm a drug dealer too Clinton...I mean, how crazy is that
Buzzmaster (10:42 AM)
Because you are a drug dealer.
Clinton (Indianapolis)
Haven't in a while, Greg. Don't laugh. Some serious cash can be won.
Cody (Jacksonville)
Topanga will always be cute!
Clay (Charlotte)
Same thing that turned Buzz into the one ton man...wait, no that was all of the food.
Tom (Southport)
And Nate is correct. I'm Hindu.
Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)
Clinton: You are also old because you read books on your front porch. And because you rant and rave about things.
J.B. (Dunmore, PA)
Clinton isn't old?
Chris (MPLS)
Buzz, who's your favorite recording artist?
Buzzmaster (10:43 AM)
Weird Al.
Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)
Nice answer, Buzz.
Alex (Littleton, CO)
@ tom*: *A little embarrases to know this* I think its Trinidad and Tobago
Nate (Madison)
Careful Chris, you're heading more towards the Fred zone by the minute.
JB (TX)
It's the same process that turned me into the guy who tries to pick up girls at Best Buy. Wait, I actually did that.
Clinton (Indianapolis)
Alex, I think tom* was making a joke. It was a good one, though.
Clay (Charlotte)
Fact: Weird Al made top of the list in Rolling Stones article on people who deserve to be in the Rock and Roll HoF.
Jeff (NY)
Don't listen to him, just the early stages of Alzheimer's setting in for our lovable old man.
Marc (Charlotte)
Of course it is, because your favorite Song is "Fat" by Weird Al, because you know you're fat.
Ryan (San Diego)
I really do pop my collar though.
Nate and Brian (Madison)
Tell me about it. A guy can't enjoy a beer or two without being called a drunk. I feel your pain steph. No not really.
Marc (Charlotte)
Ryan, are you heading to the President's Cup to mock Mickelson for wearing flip flops and t-shirts?
Reggie (Boston)
Got Friday off, thinking about pulling a wicked Nate and Brian for the Sox game on Thursday night!
Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)
With all their drinking, I'm surprised that Nate and Brian feel any pain at all.
Alex (Littleton, CO)
Once again, hard to sense the sarcasm in the form of text.
Fake Buzz (Here)
I also like Eat It, because I gotta do that, because, you know, I'm fat
Clinton (Indianapolis)
My apologies, Tom in Southport. I wasn't sure about which religion used that symbol.
stephanie (cincy)
I picked up a guy in Best Buy once.
Christian (High Point, NC)
I don't have an in-chat meme. I think I'll say Steak for Lunch Chat every day so people will start calling me T-Bone.
Buzzmaster (10:47 AM)
Nope. We've already got a T-Bone. You're now Bobo the Monkey. Dance Bobo!
Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)
Yeah right, Christian will now be known forever as Koko the Dancing Monkey.
Buzzmaster (10:48 AM)
There you go.
Tom (Southport)
No worries, Clinton.
Ryan (San Diego)
Why do I have to go all the way to the President's Cup? I know where he is in San Diego, I can just go there and tell him
J.B. (Dunmore, PA)
Taking Friday off to take my wife to Atlantic City for our anniversary. The specials are great since PA got legalized slots.
Christian (High Point, NC)
"Those who forget their Seinfeld episodes are doomed to relive them"
Lane Kiffin (Knoxville)
Ryan if you go out to mock Mickelson remember to wear a mask. It is flu season, you know.
Marc (Charlotte)
So Topanga and Winnie Cooper are it when it comes to childhood crushes... I've got to think there were other hot chicks on TV in the 90's
Christian (High Point, NC)
My first TV girl crush was Alyssa Milano on Who's The Boss? (Winnie Cooper was second) ... which makes watching Embrace the Vampire really disconcerting.
willie (topeka basement)
the youngest sister from step by step
Clinton (Indianapolis)
Lunch: Sandwich, chips, and a soda.
Chris (MPLS)
Marc, Kelly Kapowski.....!
Josh (Lincoln, NE)
Elisha Cuthbert was on Are You Afraid of the Dark.
J.B. (Dunmore, PA)
I sent my crushes in but they were girls in the 80s (the decade, not age like Clinton's crushes).
Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)
I was a mite bit old in the '90's to have crushes on child actresses. That should end before high school.
JB (TX)
Hot 90s TV chick: Hillary from Fresh Prince of Bel Air.
Clay (Hillsdale, MI)
Lunch: whatever's in the school cafeteria. Have a good one
Matt (Va Beach)
Jesse Spano and Kelly Kapowski......Saved by the Bell baby!!
Mark (Boston)
Speaking of Seinfeld, did you see the Seinfeld reunion on Curb this week, Buzz? Thoughts?
Buzzmaster (10:51 AM)
No, I missed it, unfortunately.
Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)
Lunch: French onion soup made by my wife. Outstanding work!
J.B. (Dunmore, PA)
Lunch chat: Heading to the Farmers' Market to pick up some Honey Crisp apples. They have hoot dogs and fries there too so that's probably what I'll eat.
Clay (Charlotte)
Lunch: Sandwich, orange and water...no nicotine and a diet are pure pulse.
Brian (Milwaukee)
It's Coco the Monkey! Not Bobo!
Christian (High Point, NC)
Lunch chat! Steak. *kaff*
Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)
No spoilers on Curb Your Enthusiasm, please, for those of us who don't have HBO and wait for the DVD's. Thanks.
Tom (Southport)
If we're going 90s, then Kelly Kapowski tops the list. And Kelly Taylor on 90210 was always attractive.
Valerie Bure (Russia)
I always like oldest daughter on Full House
Scott (Brewtown)
Lunch: A trip to the DMV, which means long lines, crabby people and no food.
stephanie (cincy)
Lunch: leftovers again pigs in a blanket.
Clinton (Indianapolis)
Instead of Christian being reduced to a dancing monkey, how about we call him the Librarian? I think he was the one to start the Book Club, after all.
Clay (Charlotte)
The girl on Rosanne didn't get hot until she got older. Now that she's Elliot on Scrubs...wow.
JB (TX)
Lunch: $5 footlooong. Anyway, the Seinfeld reunion on Curb is gonna be a running theme all season. Setting up to be a good season. Also, although it's unseasonably hot and humid here, gas is only 2.19/gal this morning. Thanks, Oilman!
Josh (Lincoln, NE)
I forgot my wallet, so I will be going home for lunch.
stephanie (cincy)
Lunch: Ziti with marinara sauce from Whole foods
Fake Clinton (Indianapolis)
Kelly Kapowski and Winnie Cooper had nothing on Blanche Devereaux from the Golden Girls......HOT DOG!!!
Nate (Madison)
Lunch: TBD.....Subway is always a possibility.
Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)
Ending the chat with The Pharcyde on the MP3 player. Nice bookends.
Christian (High Point, NC)
Fact: I worked in the Boston Public Library, probably the coolest library in the world that wasn't burned to a crisp several centuries ago
Matt (IN)
Ha, kudos to the Clinton imposter.
Scott (Brewtown)
Blanche, there's a name you don't here too often anymore.
Derek (Albany, NY)
STELLLA!
Clinton (Indianapolis)
Agreed. That was a pretty good one!
Marc (Charlotte)
Lunch: Sandwich, Chips, Little Debbie Snack
Greg (Ellicott City)
Lunch: Pizza Hut buffet.
Clay (Charlotte)
Alright SN, have a great day, gotta return all the phone calls I let go to voicemail the last hour. Wish me luck on not smoking, be safe, we'll see ya tomorrow. Peace.
J.B. (Dunmore, PA)
Fun chat as always, folks. Tomorrow is my Friday for this week but I expect to be here for the chat. Until then, stay safe, go out and have some fun, and stop hating! Peace.
JB (TX)
Also hot when she got older: Punky Brewster.
Rich Rod (Ann Arbor)
People who work at libraries need to get lives, and girlfriends.
Big Z (via mobile)
Buzz someone mentioned a t-bone earlier. I am having 12 of them for lunch. Hey its the off season, time to let myself go!
Matt (IN)
Undecided for lunch. Nothing really sounds good.
Neil (Pittsburgh)
Have a pleasant day
Josh (Lincoln, NE)
See ya tomorrow everyone. It's going to be a big day.
Buzzmaster (10:59 AM)
Thanks for stopping by today folks. We'll be back again tomorrow. Until then, stay classy SportsNation!
Derek (Albany, NY)
Lunch: Reese Stix and an Amp Energy Drink... lunch of champions!
Arkansas (AR)
We have a senator named Blanche. Blanche Lincoln (D-Walmart).
Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)
Aside from the swipes at Detroit in the middle of the chat, you guys did a good job bringing me part way out of my Tigers funk. Thanks. And let the Lions funk begin!
Nate (Madison)
Ok, I need a nap...zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Clinton (Indianapolis)
Alright, everybody, have a good rest of your day and stay classy!
