Clay (Charlotte)
What's in store for us today stephanie. What do we hate on today. oops just spilled my coffee.
Brian(Scranton) [via mobile]
Buzz must be on a bye every weekend. He always has a 100% chance of not losing weight.You know, cause he's fat.
Dawson (YUMA)
Texas Longhorns...who can beat them?...
Cory (PA)
Such a shame that absolutely nothing interesting occurred yesterday in the sports world.
Greg (Ellicott City)
Good morning Buzz. I've missed you.
Buzzmaster (10:02 AM)
Whatever Grason.
Robbi (Clinton, Ky)
Good morning. It's raining cats and dogs here.
Neal (Philly)
Morning Buzz. What a game by Cliff Lee yesterday!
Nate (Madison)
Stephanie, I just spilled my iced coffee....get over here!
Vinny (Manhattan, NY)
Derek Jeter is so good in October because he plays with passion and fire. He's also a good clubhouse guy.
Reggie (Boston)
Well Buzz, I had tomorrow off and my boss just came over and said to take Monday off too and Tuesday is an early release day...life's good right now!
Buzzmaster (10:03 AM)
You might want to make sure you weren't just fired.
Robbi (Clinton, Ky.)
Damn Dodgers.
Greg (Colorado Springs)
Buzz, good morning! Do I go with McNabb or Flacco?
Neal (Philly)
I saw Brian at the Phillies game yesterday. He was wearing a Phillies sweatshirt and a Rockies hat.
Marc (Charlotte)
I thought Grason was leaving?
Jon (California, MD)
Big College game tonight! I love it!....
Scott (Brewtown)
Reggie, that's called unemployment.
Michael Jordan (SF)
Is it cool if I smoke a fine cigar in here?
Buzzmaster (10:04 AM)
Only if you brought enough to share.
Reggie's Boss (Boston)
Reggie, why dont you go ahead and take the rest of your life off. Without pay.
Clay (Charlotte)
Jeez, three minutes late and already impostered...oh well, good morning SN!
Dave (vt)
sup noobs
Justin (PA)
Yo, Favre vs. Rodgers! I put $500 0n Favre. The Pack will regret trading him in '07. What do you think Buzzmaster?
Buzzmaster (10:04 AM)
Don't really care. Favre isn't a Packer any more. People really need to let it go.
Fake JB(tx) [via mobile]
Jeter is over-rated
Marc (Charlotte)
People, there are 48 Fantasy chats a day. Why would you ask a fantasy question in the MB?
Buzzmaster (10:05 AM)
Actually there are only two, sometimes only one. This brought to you straight from the Facts File and the letter S and the number 1,245.
Jon (California, MD)
I had some Ruby Red grapefruit juice for breakfast, I forgot how awesome that stuff is......
Reggie (Boston)
Nah Buzz, they love me here!
Zack (Louisville, KY)
Why would you ask a sports question, for that matter?
Brandon (Columbus)
Ohio State Is The Best!!!!
stephanie (cincy)
I think my co-workers may be MB'ers. Not a drop of coffee spilled this morning. Coincidence? I think not
Clay (Charlotte)
Just half of Grason left, I not sure which on. Actually I'm not sure it matters.
Braylon Edwards (Cleve...errr NY)
Turns out all you need to do to escape Cleveland is insult Lebron.
Robbi (Clinton, Ky)
Maybe my attention span isn't long enough because I don't care to hear anymore about the Letterman deal.
SteveFitz (Cicero, IL)
Michael Jordan can do whatever he wants.
The count (Sesame street)
I love to count things...ah..ah..ah..ah
Josh (Lincoln, NE)
Huh, if Ohio State is the best, what happened in the USC game?
Reggie's Boss (Hanging over cubicle)
Yeah...we're gonna need you to not come in Monday...or anytime after that...yeah...
Mark (Boston)
Dawson: The Florida Gators can.
Marc (Charlotte)
Buzz, Russillo added the sister from Growing Pains to our list from yesterday.
Marc (Charlotte)
Buzz, it was hyperbole, but my point was still valid.
Nate (Madison)
Did we open the ONB already or is this the actual chat?
Buzzmaster (10:06 AM)
Does it matter?
Jordan (Peoria)
My desire to crime someone makes me feel like stephanie...Hide the plastic knives
Buzzmaster (10:07 AM)
And spoons.
Jon (California, MD)
I heard Braylon dunked on LeBron, LeBron wouldn't release the tape, and that's where the beef began....
Mark (Boston)
No not really I guess. Just answering his question, Buzzman.
Marc (Charlotte)
And Sporks.
Justin (PA)
Oh and by the way Buzzmaster. What do you think of the Houston Cougars in college football? They are a true Cinderella!
Buzzmaster (10:08 AM)
I'm a fan, especially of Case Keenum. But losing to UTEP ain't cool.
Chad Ochocino (Cincy)
Child please!
Neal (Philly)
Since I missed yesterday, I had a crush on Topanga from Boy Meets World and Al from Step by Step.
Matt (via Albany) [via mobile]
I know there's a limit as to how long you can wear someones jersey when they go to another team. My question is this: how long can you wear a player's jersey if they change numbers?
Jon (California, MD)
The Jets are a serious Playoff contender now. How sick would it be to see NYJ and SF meet up in the playoffs after all of this? So far, this is a great NFL season....
Buzzmaster (10:08 AM)
That actually would kinda be The Suck.
Cory (PA)
I'm a fan of Casey Kasem.
Scott (Brewtown)
Houston Cougars? Isn't that a tv show?
Buzzmaster (10:09 AM)
No, it's Cougar Weekly or something.
Christian (High Point, NC)
Rodgers vs Favre isn't an apples-to-apples comparison, no more than Young vs Montana was. It wasn't an Orton-for-Cutler swap.
Reggie (Boston)
Al was wicked hot, Neal. I had a big time crush on her too.
Josh (Lincoln, NE)
Child please is one of my new favorite sayings.
Matt (IN)
Apparently Ryen Russillo has a fred (omaha)-esque stalker.
Chris (MPLS)
Cougar Town :P
Justin (PA)
Cliff Lee rules! No one can beat him! Not Pettite, Sabathis, Santana! Tell me different and I will hurt YOU!
Josh (Lincoln, NE)
It must have struck midnight last Saturday.
Reggie (Boston)
Chat Ref, I see an emoticon!
stephanie (cincy)
I don't know about you Buzz, but I sure am relieved that Crabtree signed with th 49'ers. Our long national nightmare is over
Buzzmaster (10:10 AM)
I did get the best night's sleep I've had since April.
Clay (Charlotte)
Justin, calm down, I've only had one cup of coffee and no nicotine in 4 days.
Zack (Louisville, KY)
No one likes a tattle-tale, Reggie.
Brian(Scranton) [via mobile]
If the jets and SF met in the playoffs that would be called the superbowl
Buzzmaster (10:11 AM)
And no one would still care.
Nate (Madison)
Did a new TMB recruitment class just enter the chat? Think you need to cut down on the invites, starting to get a little watered down.
Justin (PA)
No HOUSTON AS IN HOUSTON UNIVERSITY YOU IDIOTS NOT T V SHOW! COLLEGE
Buzzmaster (10:11 AM)
1) Stop your freakin yelling. 87) God, I hope you're joking.
SteveFitz (Cicero, IL)
Favre at 40 > Rodgers at 26
Josh (Lincoln, NE)
I just don't know if I'll be able to get into the baseball playoffs this year. I felt strangely apathetic yesterday.
LadyBuzz (Bristol)
That is because of the anti-snooring machine I bought you...Now I dont ahve to punch you all night to stop snooring
Jon (California, MD)
Here we go, Steph is hating on Crabtree...... Just wait until he takes that team deep in the playoffs......
Cory (PA)
My question is what role did MC Hammer actually play in the Crabtree signing.
Buzzmaster (10:12 AM)
Hangers-on...Dude's got bills to pay too. Haven't you seen the Nationwide commercials?
Jordan (Peoria)
Buzz please let us play this out a little more with Justin
Jim Calhoun (Storrs)
Justin my best advice is, shut up! Just shut up!
Robbi (Clinton,Ky)
Calm down Justin, get you a chill pill.
Clay (Charlotte)
Nate, when do we start the hazing? Oh wait, we do that daily.
Scott (Brewtown)
I think Justin needs a strss tab chewable
Tom (Wrigleyville)
Wow. Who are all these people?
Buzzmaster (10:13 AM)
Awesome. Some company in Miami is making bullet proof clothing. Only $4K for a polo shirt!
Nate (Madison)
Ok....I think we need a topic to talk about....
Buzzmaster (10:13 AM)
Yeah, I definitely just gave you one.
Cory (PA)
Justin, you're making Pennsylvania look bad...that's J.B.'s job
David (Ottawa)
Funny steph brings up nightmares, I had a nightmare that Crabtree was actually productive member of the NFL. Woke up in a cold sweat on that one.
Reggie (Boston)
Favre is not better than Rodgers, he has guys that can block for him...it helps.
Jon (California, MD)
I have a crush on Lilly from HIMYM....
Neal (Philly)
Happy 39th Birthday Matt Damon! What are you and LadyBuzz doing for your birthday?
Louis (Fredericton, NB)
My guess is that MC Hammer acted as a good remining that fame isn't forever and that Crabtree is better pocketing that money while he has some value
Carl (Chicago)
Thank you Justin. Its not just me who thinks this chat has a bunch of idiots.
Tom (Wrigleyville)
I blame Deion. He's causing WRs problems even after he's retired. First Crabtree, then Dez Bryant.
John (Lexington, KY)
Thursdays are for Keith Law. I did wake up for this chat though
Justin (PA)
Buzzmaster you are ajerk if you were here right now I would punch your lights out 2) I'm yelling and I like it & 88) I'm being serious!
Tom (Wrigleyville)
I read yesterday about a suit that protects you from H1N1. Unfortunately it's only available in Japan.
Greg (Ellicott City)
Buzz is staying home while Matt and LadyBuzz go out.
Scott (Brewtown)
Miami huh? I would have expected Detroit, maybe.
Nate (Madison)
Seeing how bulky vests are, how comfortable can those polos be?
Buzzmaster (10:15 AM)
It's not the same bulk. Obviously bulkier than a regular shirt, but it's not the same thickness as a full out vest.
Clay (Charlotte)
Actually, Brazil has been on the bulletproof and knife proof clothing for a while. Apparently there is about a 50-50 shot that you will be kidnapped on your way the office in Brazil. So they are making three-piece suits out of kevlar.
Christian (High Point, NC)
The problem with a bullet-proof polo is that you have to pop the collar to protect your neck, and no one would choose that over death.
Robbi (Clinton, Ky)
There were cows on my patio this morning. Hope the rain washes off the presents they left!
Josh (Lincoln, NE)
I don't know if I'll be able to make the chat tomorrow morning. Big game tonight for Nebraska and I hope to be celebrating late.
Lane Kiffin (Knoxville)
Forgive Justin. He is obviously suffering serious side effects from the flu
Bruce (Maine)
Buzz, what are u going to be for Halloween? A giant angus burger
Neal (Philly)
I really hope Justin does not live anywhere near Philly.
stephanie (cincy)
Wow,Buzz, Justin just called you out. Watcha gonna do?
Buzzmaster (10:17 AM)
I don't hit kids. It would be like Braylon Edwards hitting one of LeBron James' possee who's 5-7, 135 pounds.
Nate (Madison)
I refuse to get the piggly flu shot. I have never got a flu shot, at least that I can remember, and I don't remember the last time I had the flu. I'm not about to ruin that by injecting it into my bloodstream. My immune system and I have been in training, we're ready.
Buzzmaster (10:17 AM)
I give you 3 months to live.
Josh (Lincoln, NE)
Keith Law's twittering of the playoffs & MIN/DET game have been $$
Cory (PA)
Saw an Old Navy commercial last night that shows Michael J. Fox's puffy orange vest from back to the Future is apparently back in style. Still waiting on my hoverboard.
J-Boogie (NC)
I'm suppose to be writing a paper cause I'm in English III right now but instead I'm chatting with Buzz, I think my teacher just called me a fruit!!!
Neal (Philly)
If Justin tried to punch Buzz, his arm would get sucked in by all the fat, because you know, Buzz is fat.
David (Ottawa)
Whats with Greg Oden suddenly looking like an NBA player?
Clinton (Indianapolis)
Perhaps Carl & Justin can go on a picnic in the park, or ride a tandem bike together, or go paddleboating together. Schmucks.
Ron (Va)
See steph all the anger you encouraged this week. It all started with needing a free drink. Calm down and breath deep people.
Jim (Boston)
Ummm, are cows on your patio a normal occurence, Robbi? You don't seem very surprised.
Nate (Madison)
Well Buzz, I'll make it the best three months of my life....WINTER BREAK 09! WOOOOO!
Louis (Fredericton, NB)
You would get traded to ESPN chicago?
Greg (Ellicott City)
Thats because alcohol kills germs Nate.
Robbi (Clinton, Ky)
They closed a school near here because of the flu.
Christian (High Point, NC)
Fact: Alcoholics are likely to die of pneumonia, so I recommend that Nate get that shot instead.
Josh (Lincoln, NE)
The last time the government rushed a mass-produced vaccine like this hundreds of people died from Gillian-Barres (sp?) Syndrome. No pig shot in me.
Ron Burgundy (World News)
We're sorry to inform you the first case of swine flu has hit Madison, WI.
Jon (California, MD)
Buzz, you work at ESPN, I thought you'd have the scoop. Braylon did not hit that guy, one of his friends did. Bogus news. An altercation yes, but Braylon was not the one who punched the guy.....
Buzzmaster (10:19 AM)
And Ray Lewis and Rae Carruth didn't kill anyone.
Robbi (Clinton, Ky)
My neighbor needs new fences. His horses were in the road as well.
Jordan (Peoria)
Hard to know you have the flu when you have a constant hangover
Ralph (OG)
Buzz is fat, hahahaha
Dawson (Yuma)
Greg Oden is a very expensive back up Center.....just like BUzz.
David (Banning)
When I was off and at home I wanted nothing to do with the MB. That being said I am back at work. Buzz go as a sumo, you know cuz your fat.
Brian (Madison, WI)
I'm going to end my Favre/Rastall, whatever you want to call it. Got some work done, feel a little better. I'll be a man, even though I'm not 40 and still get sick thinking of #4 in purple. Also, last night I think I had the worst 5 minutes of football, you could call it a Grossman. I managed to drop a pass, give up a safety and a touchdown, and hurt my shoulder, all in 5 minutes. Team still won by 2 TD's despite my best efforts.
Buzzmaster (10:21 AM)
I don't know if you call that a Grossman. I think you either call it a Favre or a Brian. You couldn't decide which team you were playing for, so you tried to help the other team, while your team was winning.
Nate (Madison)
Brians is shaving points....that's my assessment.
Marc (Charlotte)
Ray Lewis didn't kill anyone. He might have been there, but he didn't kill anyone. Rae Carruth is a totally different story.
stephanie (cincy)
I work for a Japanese company and they walk around all day with those paper masks on. We have HUGE bottles of Purell everywhere.
Jordan (Peoria)
If the glove dont fit you must acquit
Clay (Charlotte)
Jon, really? Who do you think Buzz is, Deep Throat? We probably know news before it reaches the basement.
John (Lexington, KY)
One more time. Is it socially acceptable to ask your roommate who has swine flu to drive home (which is an hour away) to A. avoid infecting all of us and B. allow us to keep from canceling our huge party?
Nate (Madison)
That's called a Brian. I don't remember Grossman dropping passes, giving up TD's, or giving up safeties.
Louis (Fredericton, NB)
I read somewhere than the ideal weight for sumo wrestling is somewhere between 300-320 lbs. Some OL wieght more than that
Zack (Louisville, KY)
Yes and yes.
Clinton (Indianapolis)
Asked the boss for the day off tomorrow, and he said yes! Now I just need to figure out what to do. Suggestions, folks?
Buzzmaster (10:22 AM)
Whatever you do, don't get the H1N1 bug.
Josh (Lincoln, NE)
Hell yeah, tell him to pack up and infect his family, not you.
Greg (Ellicott City)
John, Its totally ok. Its just ashame that you even had to ask him.
Scott (Brewtown)
John, you don't ask, you simply throw him out and lock the door
Nate (ciny)
Oden,Farve 2010!!!!!
mike (washington)
WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Come on Skip, yesterday u gave the Yankees, and especially CC no love, now today after beating the Twins soundly all u have in more excuses! What did u want the Yankees to do, beat them 22-0? I can only imagine ur rants if they only beat them 2-1 or heaven 4 bid lost to the Twins. Come on Skip, u missed this one.
Robbi (Clinton,Ky)
John, as long as he doesn't live an hour in my direction it's fine.
David (Ottawa)
Clinton: Live in the woods for the day. Just cause.
Neal (Philly)
Take your Metamucil, nap, eat mashed potatoes and corn, inflame your arthritis by playing Rock Band.
Clinton (Indianapolis)
mike, First Take is that way --->
Christian (High Point, NC)
Frankly, John, the safest thing to do is to treat it like the zombie apocalypse and put a bullet in his brain now.
Matt (IN)
Mike the padded cell is the next door to the left. Wrong chat.
Rusty S. (NC)
Nate, I just got out of TMB Academy V.
Zack (Louisville, KY)
First Takers : MB :: Jets : Sharks
Fake stephanie (Cincy)
Just stab him Jon. Then you dont have to worry about it
Pete (NC)
boo unexpected fire drills when you're trying to eat breakfast
J.B. (Dunmore, PA)
Hey Buzz Nation. Unforeseen work circumstances will prohibit me from chatting today but I wanted to thank Buzz for posting two of my questions to Fran Tarkenton yesterday. It meant a lot to me. Have a great weekend all as I'll be in Atlantic City tomorrow. Stay safe and I'll see you back here Tuesday for the chat. Peace.
Brian (Madison, WI)
I called it a Grossman because he's usually known for having the worst 5 minutes of football ever.
Buzzmaster (10:24 AM)
I'm still going with pulling a Favre or a Brian.
Jordan (Peoria)
Boooo Brian! (just for the heck of it)
Greg (Ellicott City)
Are we the jets or sharks?
John (Lexington, KY)
Old people are less affected by it so I figure his family is safer than me. The sad thing is, it was a party for him, but the wheels have already been put in motion. No stopping this beast
Nate (Madison)
John, he's like the monkey from Outbreak......catch him and eliminate him.
Jon (California, MD)
laces out......
Clinton (Indianapolis)
*applauds Neal* Nicely done!
Jordan (Peoria)
Grason with your multiple personality complex you are probably both
Robbi (Clinton, Ky)
Oh yeah, my free gift from Directv... 5 months free game lounge. Gee I didn't know they had a game lounge.
stephanie (cincy)
I am thinking of seeing "Couples Retreat" this weekend. Looks pretty funny
Louis (Fredericton, NB)
Although I like the name, it can only be a Grossman if you killed your chances of winning during those 5 minutes
Christian (High Point, NC)
"Swing flu"? Is that like the "Boogie Woogie Fever"? But sucks we're losing the BSB chat.
Brian (Madison, WI)
I can't believe one of the Backstreet Boys has the SWING flu. I bet he didn't want it that way. I mean contracting a brand new flu and all.
Buzzmaster (10:26 AM)
Refresh people. Refresh.
Nate (Madison)
Buzz's amendment to call horrible football plays, Brian's. All for it, raise your hand...(Hand raised up)
Reggie (Boston)
We need a change of pace right now, ONB, Buzz?
Buzzmaster (10:26 AM)
Let's do it.....
James (Ohio)
Why was Braylon Edwards Traded? We need him how else is Anderson going to do well?
A-Rod (New York)
*Leaving Yankee Stadium with one arm around Jay-Z and one arm around Kate Hudson*, Yeah, life is good!
Mike, Minnesota [via mobile]
How sad is it to be a Tigers fan knowing that your team had a chance to win like 5 times at least and they chocked?
Paul Terre Haute Indiana [via mobile]
The cubs need 2 find a spot 4 jake fox and add a left handed bat and figure out where 2 bat soriano in the line up lead off or down in the order what do u think
Craig (Delaware)
Who is a better start this week? Patrick Crayton or Nate Washington
Yanick K. (Irvine, California)
Okay today's preseason game between the Lakers and GS should clearly prove that the Lakers will repeat. They've got the stars, the bench, and the role players. Yesterdays poll saying 25% of the nation thinks they will repeat is a bunch of BS. This game and many more will prove my point!
Jason (Ellicott City, MD)
I hope the old ladies don't hurt Clinton with their marker while playing Bingo.
Rich Rodriguez (Michigan)
People who waste an hour of their lives participating in the Morning Buzz need to get lives and a job.

Jack Shinn (Kingman Arizona)
Yesterday and today on ESPN Classic, in the A. M. I got the pleasure of watching some Pro bowling from the almost distant past, the early 60s. It was a real pkleasure and I hope you'll continue to show Pro Bowlers Tourvfrom the 60s so we can see stars like Billy Hardwick, Don Carter, Jim Godman, Tim Harrahan, Gus Lampo, Don Glover, et al. Again thanks for the great work and I hope to see much more. J Shinn
Tweeters (Twitter)
Twit, twit!
Ryan's Collar (San Diego)
*pop*
Zach Rastall (Marinette, WI)
I am so awesome.
Lane Kiffin (TN)
Oh, but I think Braylon COULD catch a cold. The Flu is abundant these days, after all.
Jets Fans (NY)
Yeah! We just got an older version of D. Heyward Bey. The JETS are saved!!! It doesn't matter if Braylon can't catch a cold, cause he is fast!
Steve (NJ)
A few thoughts before playoff baseball begins: First, I loved the Braylon Edwards trade...when it was Edwards for picks. Then it was Edwards for Turnsik and picks. Then it was Turnsik, Stuckey, and picks. Then, it was Turnsick, Stuckey, and a 3rd & 5th rounder. For Braylon 'Maybe He'll Catch It This Time" Edwards. I never thought I'd demand they bring back Terry Bradway.... Also, great game from the Twins and Tigers - sorry Detroit. Yankees in 4. Oh, by the way, there will be an open bar stocked with top shelf beverages at my wedding. Cash bars are for creeps.
Zack (Louisville, KY)
This is a message from Zack to Zack. Don't forget to do that thing you need to do before that thing is due.
Buzzmaster (10:27 AM)
And that's it.....
Christian (High Point, NC)
Hitting Refresh requires me to retype my name and location, killing valuable snarky comments time.
Neal (Philly)
Thanks Clinton. It's about time I had a good response to a question.
Nate (Madison)
I was more psyched for Couples Retreat before I found out it's PG-13.
Greg (Ellicott City)
Nice one whoever posted as Ryans collar.
Jon (California, MD)
Brock Lesner is weak.....
Clay (Charlotte)
BOOOO Rastall!
Clinton (Indianapolis)
Chocked on a hoot dog HAS to enter the MB lexicon.
Zack (Louisville, KY)
I did remember to do that thing I needed to do.
Matt (IN)
Terre Haute is a crappy town. I am not surprised that Paul's comment reflected that.
Cory (PA)
Say that to his face Jon. Or more likely, his navel.
Ryan (San Diego)
My collar does not have access to the internet
Buzzmaster (10:29 AM)
It must be hanging out with chaz's dog.
Nate (Madison)
Popping collars is for lossers.
Matt (IN)
Wow, a preseason NBA game is going to determine that the Lakers will repeat? Ok.
Greg (Ellicott City)
Ryan, do your frosted tips have access?
Clinton (Indianapolis)
Just looked at the weather forecast for tomorrow, looks pretty crappy. Probably go check out Zombieland.
Christian (High Point, NC)
Dang, ESPN Classic is showing 60s Bowling? Why do I need the ONB to learn this valuable info, Buzz?
Buzzmaster (10:30 AM)
Don't look at me.
Pete (NC)
So the wife is leaving for Nashville tonight, returning Monday. I foresee I weekend full of sports, gambling, red meat, and ________. (just in case she's on here)
Somali Pirates (Gulf of Aden)
(Realizing the ship they are firing at is a French military ship)....Ohhhhh ($#*&%$#(*#@^%
Buzzmaster (10:31 AM)
That's an awesome story. What a mess that country is.
Daniel Webster (Boston)
Need word in my lexicon. Buzz....fat, obese, lardbucket...How much buzz in on your steak. Oh my pork chop is very buzzy.. You are so slow you run like a buzz.
Chris (MPLS)
Zombieland is a classic already, hilarious stuff.
Buzzmaster (10:31 AM)
Really? It looks horrendous.
Cody (Jacksonville)
Halloween horror nights anyone been lately? im going this weekend. how was it?
Josh (Lincoln, NE)
We are forecasted to get "wintry mix" on Saturday. Sucks.
Scott (Brewtown)
Well, I'm heading up north this weekend to close down the trailer. They're calling for snow on Monday. Global warming? yeah right.
Josh (Lincoln, NE)
The French ship should have blown them out of the water. But it's France.
Scott (Brewtown)
If it's a French military ship, I would have thought they would have sunk themselves.
Nate (Madison)
Highs for the next week are projected to be from the lower 40's to the lower 50's with lows dipping below freezing, piece of pulse.
John (Lexington, KY)
Off to class wearing my Helton jersey. Let's hope they dont suck again.
Knights (The Dark Ages)
Try a chainmail shirt. Much less bulky than you might think.
Clay (Charlotte)
Can you call it a "wintery mix" in October? How about a "fally mix"?
Reggie (Boston)
Did anyone watch the season premiere of South Park? Hilarious!
Nate (Madison)
It was a supply ship, not sure it has those "blow you out of the water" guns on board.
Louis (Fredericton, NB)
No, it's pretty funny actually. There is a few funny moments, which is more than the average comedy those last few years
Buzzmaster (10:33 AM)
I'm really surprised by that. The commercials are turrible. Maybe I'll give it a DVD shot.
Clay (Charlotte)
Buzz, did you watch Glee last night?
Buzzmaster (10:33 AM)
Nope. Forgot to put it on my DVR list again.
Neal (Philly)
Get a mithril shirt. It's lightweight.
Zack (Louisville, KY)
They knew it was a French ship when they raised a white flag.
Clinton (Indianapolis)
I read an article recently about the pirates in Somalia, and it turns out they fail WAY more than they succeed.
Greg (Ellicott City)
When does the next 30for30 come on?
Buzzmaster (10:34 AM)
Every Tuesday.
Christian (High Point, NC)
Webster Fail, it was Noah not Daniel.
Clay (Charlotte)
You got all that fat stuck in your brain.
Josh (Lincoln, NE)
Yes, South Park always brings the goods.
stephanie (cincy)
Glee is awesome. I hope it lasts and does not suffer the fate of best show on one watched "Friday Night Lights"
Pete (NC)
Weather forecast for tomorrow says high of 87. It is October, right?
Buzzmaster (10:35 AM)
It's going to be upper 90s in Florida and Texas this weekend.
Brian (Madison, WI)
No one likes you Pete.
Cory (PA)
Still haven't watched Glee...might check it out on Hulu tonight
Clinton (Indianapolis)
There's your global warming, Scott. Pete stole it!
Tom (Wrigleyville)
Any more info on the 30 for 30 films being online?
Buzzmaster (10:36 AM)
Not that I've heard. I imagine there has to be re-runs of them on somewhere. Check local listings.
Zack (Louisville, KY)
You know how I avoid getting shot? I don't got to places where I'm likely to get shot.
Brian (Madison, WI)
So the Somalian pirate ships are like Nate with women?
Josh (Lincoln, NE)
Of course they fail, they try to take over giant ships with 18 foot fishing boats and 1940s era AKs.
Jon (California, MD)
SportsNation loves Jay-Z......
Nate (Madison)
So tomorrow we are bombing the moon? Is it now part of the Axis of Evil as well?
Buzzmaster (10:37 AM)
I heard that on the news this morning and didn't really understand. Why are we attacking the moon? Did we finally figure out there are aliens living there?
Reggie (Boston)
Where's the fun in that, Zach?
Clay (Hillsdale, MI)
Happy Office Wedding night. Will be interesting to see where its going from here.
Marc (Charlotte)
FNL is back for at least 2 more years steph. Direct TV in the winter and back on network tv come the summer.
Clinton (Indianapolis)
*ZING* Wow, that might be Brian's best one ever.
Clay (Charlotte)
Ouch, burn.
Mark (Boston)
Tonight's schedule is jammed. Bruins-Ducks at 7, hour of the Office at 9, Red Sox-Angels at 9:30, Sunny at 10. Ahhh, what to watch, what to dvr!!
Josh (Lincoln, NE)
We're looking for water.
Nate (Madison)
At least I have some successes, Brian is more like the Detroit Lions
Robbi (Clinton,Ky)
The moon bombing thing is making me feel afraid.
Marc (Charlotte)
The moon must have disagreed with the Pres.
Clay (Hillsdale, MI)
The moon voted for Rio
Matt (IN)
I'm lost. Stupid people interrupting me.
Robbi (Clinton,Ky)
Actually ice.
Ron (Va)
Clay will that wedding have an open bar.
Brian (Madison, WI)
Lions got a win this year
Clay (Charlotte)
Via CNN- NASA hopes the impact will kick up enough dust to help the LCROSS probe find the presence of water in the moon's soil. Four minutes later, the LCROSS will follow through the debris plume, collecting and relaying data back to Earth before crashing into the Cabeus crater near the moon's south pole.
Tom (Wrigleyville)
Yes, let's attack the moon, throwing earth's gravitational pull off, thus beginning the end of the world. Awesome.
Rich Rodriguez (Ann Arbor)
People that bomb the moon need to get lives.
Ryan (San Diego)
Ron, that's too dangerous with Meredith
Jon (California, MD)
Mark, no #21 Nebraska at #24 Missouri on that television schedule of yours? Booooooo
Josh (Lincoln, NE)
I look for the Tigers to prove something tonight against my Huskers.
jill (norman)
Whoa, that moon thing is too heavy for me. Do I have to get up for it?
Jim (Del)
Yea yea yea. Blame it on Rio.
Nate (Madison)
The moon had a cash bar......NASA, following Stephanie's lead, disagreed with that.
Robbi (Clinton,Ky)
Yeah Tom, that's why it's scaring me. I mean, what are the consequences?
Louis (Fredericton, NB)
Instead of bombing the moon, they should send a team of drillers with an A-bomb
Lane Kiffin (Knoxville)
Via CNN - NASA hopes the impact will lead to the discovery of a complete cure for all types of flu.
Tom (Wrigleyville)
Doesn't NASA realize that the moon is made of cheese? Or have all those Tom and Jerry cartoons steered me wrong?
Buzzmaster (10:41 AM)
If a huge block of cheese gets blasted off and falls to the earth? Will we be able to split it evenly among us? What will it taste like? What kind of crackers should I get tonight?
Clay (Charlotte)
It's not cheese. If it was, Buzz would be heading up the research effort to colonize the moon...you know, cause he's fat.
Will (Purdue)
Duke has a decent LCROSS team.
Clay (Charlotte)
Ritz.
stephanie (cincy)
I think the Man in the Moon is going to be ticked off.
Urban Meyer (Gainesville)
You're either for bombing the moon or you aren't. If you aren't, then you can go buy a seat in 37F and watch
Matt (via Albany) [via mobile]
Two words: premptive strike
Pete (NC)
Warm weather or people on TMB liking me. Hmmm, tough one. I'll get back to you.
Ron (Va)
I heard on CNN that the Moon is hosting an MSU alumni reunion with a cash bar reception. Plenty of coffee for the non alcohol drinkers.
Bob (Lowell)
Very annoying that theSox game doesn't start until after 9:30.
Buzzmaster (10:43 AM)
They're playing on the west coast. Usually those games don't start unil 10, so you're actually getting a break.
Ryan (San Diego)
To answer your questions Buzz, No, Mozzarella and Jack combined, Ritz with a few Triscuits
Jon (California, MD)
Andy Koffman is now loving this chat....
Jon (California, MD)
The moon isn't that high, a cow jumped over it....
Scott (Brewtown)
The government will get all the cheese and give it to Chris Farley ...in his van down by the river.
jill (norman)
Let's melt it and make nachos.
Josh (Lincoln, NE)
A Boston whine!
Buzzmaster (10:43 AM)
A house merlot, I believe.
Marc (Charlotte)
I'm actually happy the President's Cup is on the West Coast, since I'll get to watch more of the coverage live when I get home.
Neal (Philly)
I like jill's idea.
Jon (California, MD)
Keebler Clubs trump all crackers, Ritz is a good second choice....
Ryan (San Diego)
Bob, just go to sleep early, the Angels win easy
Bob (Lowell)
The Dodgers are on the west coast also. They start at 6:30 tonight.
Buzzmaster (10:45 AM)
That's only 3:30 on the west. They want Sox-Angels in prime time.
Clay (Charlotte)
Except that whole Soxs owning the Angels the last couple of years thing.
Jordan (Peoria)
stephanie will bring the knife to slice the cheese
Greg (Ellicott City)
Hot Brie w/ bagel chips.
JB (TX)
Checking in late, I'm missing all moon chat apparently. Warren Moon doesn't have anything to say about this?
David Spade (Hollywood)
Chris Farley, RIP, pour a little out in the street for him.
Josh (Lincoln, NE)
It's all a vast conspiracy to deprive people in Boston from watching the Sawks
jill (norman)
We'll need a lot of Pace picante.
Buzzmaster (10:45 AM)
Ooohhh, salsa con quesa. I like it.
Clinton (Indianapolis)
Triscuits are fantastic, especially for making little meat and cheese sandwiches.
Fake Ryan (President's Cup)
Hey Phil, Nice Flip Flops!!!
Jordan (Peoria)
I will bring the beef for the nachos
Marc (Charlotte)
Couldn't we pull the sun closer and make a huge pot of fondue?
Cowboy (Texas)
NEW YORK CITY!!! Get a rope.
Brian (Madison, WI)
ESPN has an east coast and a west coast bias, depends on the time of day.
Corbin (Houston)
Think Angels will force game 5, but lose in dramatic fashion
The Spoon (Kids' Bookshelves)
Hey, Dish, they're on to us!
Dave (RI)
ESPN and Bostons biggest sports radio station, WEEI, joined forces today.. hopefully to take over the world
coyote (sa)
ESPN is kinda like Brian? Can't decide which bias they have?
Tom Cable (Oakland County)
I'll just punch it back into orbit
Josh (Lincoln, NE)
Triscuit, slice of melted pepper jack, and a jalapeno. Great snack.
Richard (Wisconsion)
What do cheese and the moon have to do with MLB playoff games. NOTHING
Buzzmaster (10:49 AM)
Oh, they have plenty to do with MLB playoff games. What do you eat at the games? Nachos. What's on nachos? Cheese? The games are played at night. What's in the sky? The moon. Get your stuff together, man.
Clay (Hillsdale, MI)
Richard, being from Wisconsin, you should be an expert on cheese. What kind do you think the moon is made of?
Clinton (Indianapolis)
Lighten up, Francis, er, Richard.
Robbi (Clinton,Ky)
Rotel, you gotta have Rotel in your melted cheese.
jill (norman)
Is this tomorrow or can we eat it tonight watching NU/MU game?
Zack (Louisville, KY)
MBers today are reading my mind. Or I'm too slow.
Scott (Brewtown)
Richard, no one will take you seriously if yoou can't even spell your location correctly. And this from the worst MB speller.
Neal (Philly)
Lunch: microwave radiation...have a good everyone!
Robbi (Clinton,Ky)
And some Fritos scoops.
Christian (High Point, NC)
Did someone in Wisconsin just slander cheese? I guess there are some unhappy cows there.
Pete (NC)
Apparently if you juice the moon, it tastes like wheat beer.
Greg (Ellicott City)
What do the MLB playoff games have to do with the MB? NOTHING!!!
Jordan (Peoria)
Unless said moon cheese fell on one of the playoff games Richard. Then what are you gonna do?
Jon (California, MD)
Baseball is a third tier sport. At least it's playoffs, it's worth tuning in for the final inning. The World Series is the only main game to watch.....
Marc (Charlotte)
Lunch: Salami, Ham and MUENSTER CHEESE on Sourdough, Doritos (in honor of Jeff). and a snack cake.
Dave (RI)
Some sportscaster would say "so and so threw him the stinky cheese, but so and so hit it to the moon" thats the best i can do
Clinton (Indianapolis)
Lunch: Sandwich, chips, and a soda.
Clay (Charlotte)
Richard, 1) spell the state correctly. Q) You can't talk bad about your own state's main export
Robbi (Clinton,Ky)
Lunch: Chicken and dumplings, unsweet tea. God, I'm gonna get huge!
fred (omaha)
richard you sound like you have issues, you need help
Clay (Hillsdale, MI)
Time to go, enjoy the office tonight. And the moon destruction.
Marc (Charlotte)
Wisconsion, is that the French way of saying it?
Clay (Charlotte)
Lunch: Sandwich and an orange
Christian (High Point, NC)
Lunch chat: Leftover company picnic food.
Ben (Madison, WI)
Lunch: Job interview in 38 minutes.
Mike G. (Bristol, CT)
POT ROAST!
Cory (PA)

Nate (Madison)
Lunch: Nothing big, had a large breakfast.
Greg (Ellicott City)
Lunch: Tuna salad w/ PEPPERJACK
Brian (Madison, WI)
Lunch: A couple of hoot dogs possibly.
Louis (Fredericton, NB)
1-I thought Wisconsin main export was beer; 2- You don't wanna know how french people say Wisconsin
Clinton (Indianapolis)
Baseball's third tier? I'm assuming you're putting football ahead of it, but what else?
Lane Kiffin (Knoxville)
Fact: Getting the flu can make you get huge.
JB (TX)
Lunch: Moon Pies.
Bob (Lowell)
Lunch: PB&J
Clay (Charlotte)
Alright SN, gotta put together a $2.5 million bid. Enjoy your Thursday, be safe, we'll see ya tomorrow. Peace.
Zack (Louisville, KY)
Lunch: A CHEESEburger
stephanie (cincy)
Lunch: I am hungry for cheese. I think I will go have a healthy tuna melt sandwich and bottled water.
jill (norman)
I have to go get some Doritos so I'll be ready.
Ben (Madison, WI)
Also, fred (omaha) had a classic post in the Russillo chat yesterday.

Matt (via Albany) [via mobile]
Lunch chat: City fish? (fresh fried seafood)
Tom (Wrigleyville)

Matt (IN)
Lunch is undecided. It's raining still and I don't really want to go out.
Jon (California, MD)
Football, College, NFL, even High School. NCAA Hoops is in second place.....
Buzzmaster (10:55 AM)

Zack (Louisville, KY)
I don't believe you, Ben.
Moon Unit Zappa (????)
I' so glad that you all could talk about me.
Bob (Lowell)
And Russillo said he had heard of the Buzzmaster, but had never actually seen such a beast.
Jon (California, MD)
Buzz, sport...not *sport that has playoffs*. I know it's late in the chat, but try to keep up. Good work, champ....
Cory (PA)
Have a good day Morning Buzzers! And remember, it's okay to be wrong...so long as you can shift the blame!
Christian (High Point, NC)
I-AA, II, and III have playoffs, Buzz.
Dave (KC, MO)
Four cheese Hot Pockets..... yum
Robbi (Clinton, Ky)
Don't forget The Office wedding is tonight, go Cardinals. Bye y'all.
Division II, er FCS (Various locations)
Buzz, we do have a playoff...fail.
Nate (Madison)
Annnnnnnd CUT....good shoot everyone, see you back here tomorrow.
Tom (Wrigleyville)
Jon never said baseball playoffs were 3rd tier. Just baseball in general, which I agree with. Have you ever tried to watch a baseball game without alcohol? Awful.
Zack (Louisville, KY)
Buzz is an experience to all five senses. Most of them having to do with him being fat.
Nerd (Basement)
Buzzmaster is my level 34 swordsman with 72 hit points and an arcfire spell.
Buzzmaster (10:59 AM)
Sadly, that probalby would be a true statement about some kind of game.
Buzzmaster (11:00 AM)
All right folks. We're done here. Thanks for stopping by. We'll be back again tomorrow. Until then, stay classy SportsNation!
NASA Administrators (Houston)
Did we aim that thing at the moon or Antarctica?
Josh (Lincoln, NE)
Made it back for the last minute. Free lunch from Quiznos today. Then the game tonight! Maybe see everyone tomorrow!
Pete (NC)
Lunch: it's all mine and nachos. Okay, with that I'm out.
Marc (Charlotte)
Great chat everyone. We'll try to get SVP's additions to list of childhood tv crushes during his chat today.
Marc (Charlotte)
I've been switching up my weekly cheese selection for my sandwiches, Havarity last week, Muenster this week.
