  (10:02 AM)

Gooooooooood morning!

Buzzmaster

  (10:02 AM)

I was just talking to MommaBuzz. She says hey.

Cory (PA)

Morning all. It's a beautiful Tuesday for Phillies phans!

Jason (Crozet)

I am so hungry...everything around me smells like bacon

Clinton (Indianapolis)

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

Bob (Lowell)

Let's go.

Marc (Charlotte)

After a two day respite, I'm back. I won't even ask if I was missed so Buzz won't have the satisfaction of the snide remark.

Carl (Chicago)

Grow up people. Kickball is for kids under 13.

Steve (NJ)

Within 3 minutes of Jeff Mathis' RBI, I received no less than 10 text messages claiming, variously calling for Joe Girardi's head, or merely blaming him for the Yankees first post-season loss. I hadn't realized the city of Philadelphia had become Yankees fans. But hey, congrats Philly Phans; your boy J-Roll really came through.

Ryan (San Diego)

Well crap

Zack (Louisville, KY)

Buzz is late.

Greg (Ellicott City)

Goooooooood morning Buzz.

stephanie (cincy)

where are buzz. my my my

MommaBuzz (via mobile)

Always remember son, you're fat!

Josh (Lincoln, NE)

Seeing Philip Rivers cry means an angel got its wings.

J.B. (Dunmore, PA)

Good morning, Buzz Nation. Well, Ryan can't blame the referees for that one.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Should we grow up before or after we buy ourselves skirts? You know, because according to Carl, we're all a bunch of women who watch sissified TV shows.

Buzzmaster

  (10:04 AM)

Definitely before. Or else you keep on having to buy new ones as you keep growing.

Zack (Louisville, KY)

Breakfast: Bagel from Panera

Robbi (Clinton, Ky)

Hello why can't I find the chat?

Buzzmaster

  (10:04 AM)

We're hiding.

Justin (PA)

Well guys are the Phils and Halos awesome or what?

Bob (Lowell)

Careful Buzz, Stephanie is looking for you and she probably has a knife.

Steve (NJ)

My office smells of delicious maple syrup; I checked, we're not in Vermont. I then walked around, asking who turned their office into a Denny's....until I learned the sick, sad truth. Oatmeal. Maple walnut oatmeal. I feel crimed.

fred (omaha)

tell your mom im on my way over for breakfast

tom* (parkville, md)

Hey, Mamabuzz.

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

Starting today's chat with Snap's "I've Got the Power." How's that for old school?

Jason (Crozet)

Ooooh....ESPNChicgo MLB Chat...here, let me sum it up for you...."why do the Cubs suck?" "The Cubs suck" "Ozzie is a loose cannon" "will the Cubs EVER win a world series?" Done and DONE...just saved you some time.

Buzzmaster

  (10:06 AM)

No. Now you just created more time, because you didn't answer a question and gave an answer for a question you didn't ask. I'm confused.

tom* (parkville, md)

My office smells of dead squirrels.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Wow, Tom, that reminds me of the old ESPN Jock Jams CD I used to have.

Mike Gundy (Stillwater)

Hey Carl, I'm a man and I like kickball!

Tyler (Pa)

Special sucked for both teams last night

Nate (Madison)

ESPNChicago MLB chat? I'd rather take a burning hot coal on my tongue.

Buzzmaster

  (10:06 AM)

Sweet. The chat's happening, so we all expect pictures of the burning hot coal.

Josh (Lincoln, NE)

I haven't had a breakfast that wasn't a protein bar in months. I'm missing out and I need to rectify that soon.

tom* (parkville, md)

Listening to John Prine.

Josh (Lincoln, NE)

tom* you should probably get another job besides being a hitchhiker, then.

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

This song reminds me of Sinbad's "Brain Damage" standup special. This was the song that played over the credits. Fantastic show.

Brian (Madison)

Late night at the office.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Another solid Big Bang Theory last night. WHEATON!!!

Buzzmaster

  (10:07 AM)

That show is great. CBS Monday night has a pretty solid lineup of shows...except for Jenna Elfman's new show. Jury's still out on that one.

Justin (PA)

Don't worry Buzzmaster just ignore him.

Cory (PA)

tom*: Freelance hobo.

Steve (NJ)

How is it, what with ESPN's east coast bias, there isn't an ESPN New York yet? At this rate, I'm expecting an ESPN Louisville before I see it.

tom* (parkville, md)

What does it cost to sent a hot burning coal to Madison?

Ryan (San Diego)

ESPNSan Diego NFL chat. Fire everyone...that about sums up that chat

Cory (PA)

Good news Nate...you can do both!

stephanie (cincy)

That was fake steph buzz. I would never stab you

J.B. (Dunmore, PA)

Um last I checked Chicago was a pretty big sports market so while I will not be participating in that chat, I can see its value.

Marc (Charlotte)

Buzz, why is there an ESPN Chicago MLB chat, when there isn't a team from the entire midwest left in the playoffs?

Brian (Madison, WI)

Can I wear my Cubs hat and Carlos Zambrano jersey while I throw hot coals at Nate?

Robbi (Clinton,Ky.)

The first half in the football game last night looked like the land of many happy returns.

JB (TX)

Jenna Elfman isn't aging well, I'm just gonna put that out there.

Robbi (Clinton,Ky.)

Here it is.

tom* (parkville, md)

Sorry, I can't be a hobo. They complain of my odor.

Jason (Crozet)

Can someone tell me when Lost/24 is coming back? I can't get a definitive answer...so where do I go for my information? Yep, straight to the braintrust.

Buzzmaster

  (10:10 AM)

24 is usually a January start so they can go 24 straight episodes.

Nate (Madison)

Brian, you mean your Brewers hat and Zambrano jersey.

Steve (NJ)

I can't think about Will Wheaton without thinking of Stewie saying WHill WHeaton. (empahsis on the "wh")

Zack (Louisville, KY)

ESPN Louisville summary: Fire Kragthorpe, UK sucks.

J.B. (Dunmore, PA)

Big Bang was awesome last night. Great show to add to my must-watch lineup.

Josh (Lincoln, NE)

Eastbound and Down is back in January too! Can't wait!

Buzzmaster

  (10:12 AM)

I saw someone in a chat mention a new show on FX called "The League" about 30somethings and their fantasy football league. Supposed to be funny. Might have to check it out.

Robbi (Clinton,Ky.)

Friday Night Lights starts next week on Directv.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

24 premieres January 17, 2010. Lost premieres sometime in January or February 2010. Thank you, Wikipedia.

Justin (PA)

Speakin of 24 do you know when NUMB3RS will have their next new episode?

Big Z (Chicago)

I'll be at the buffet during the ESPN Chicago MLB chat.

Jay (NYC)

Jason, if the tv execs use their brains (which they won't) Lost/24 will not return.

Marc (Charlotte)

I'll continue to recommend Lie to Me as a good watch, and House continues to have a good season.

Buzzmaster

  (10:13 AM)

Glad to hear House coming back. I tried to get back into it and was all confused because House was all different and his staff were all fired.

Greg (Ellicott City)

Criminal Minds = underrated.

Bob (Lowell)

Buzz, aren't you contactually obligated to watch Monday Night Football?

Buzzmaster

  (10:13 AM)

Pretty much. Not so much contractually obligated, but more like want-to-keep-my-job--'ligated.

Brian (Madison, WI)

I guess it doesn't matter what I'm wearing as long as I'm throwing hot coals at Nate.

Pete (NC)

I must comment on the awesomeness that is Hulu. I can't believe I just now started using it.

Marc (Charlotte)

His old staff quit, but now his new staff quit and his old staff is back.

Buzzmaster

  (10:14 AM)

Great. Now I'm more confused.

J.B. (Dunmore, PA)

I may tune into "The League," too, Buzz. I play Fantasy Football but I'm not obsessive about it like some people. I'll bet some guys watch the show and wonder what's so outrageous about it.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

What in the hell are you talking about, Jay? Lost and 24, whether you like them or not (judging by your comment, I'm assuming you don't), are two of the most popular shows on TV. They'd be stupid not to bring them back.

Josh (Lincoln, NE)

House is just starting to pick up this season. I always enjoy the Cuddy-House interactions.

Cory (PA)

There is no way I can take a show seriously if they spell with numbers. I don't care what the title is. I had a hard enough time with Se7en.

Scott (Brewtown)

Played Wii Sports resort 3 point shooting last night. Pretty much realistic as I made exactly one shot in 2 minutes of shooting. There was a lot of clanging going on.

Jason (Crozet)

Television is POOR at best right now....thank goodness for HD sporting events. Glad to see ESPN is already showing Tuesday/Wednesday/Thursday/Friday/Saturday/Monday games on their network....way to know your target audience and that there is not much else on this time of year!

Steve (NJ)

Heroes keeps plodding along...less and less heroically each week. And yet, I still watch. Maybe it's a Monday 9 PM time slot thing?

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Going to have to use Hulu to catch the HIMYM I missed last night due to the Yankees-Angels game going extra innings.

Scott (Brewtown)

I must comment on how I still have no clue as to what Hulu even is.

Marc (Charlotte)

Agree wtih Greg, Criminal Minds is solid.

Buzzmaster

  (10:16 AM)

Yes it is.

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

Don't know if any of you are Adult Swim fans, but I'm still trying to figure out the season premiere of Venture Brothers. Very confusing.

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

Hulu.com, Scott. Go there, be amazed, spend hours, lose your job.

Buzzmaster

  (10:17 AM)

The only thing that stinks is Hulu only has the episodes of what's available from the TV websites.

Nate (Madison)

Rain from today through Friday night. Did I move to Seattle in my sleep?

Zack (Louisville, KY)

Go to that episode's Wiki page, Tom. It will sort it out for you. I was confused at first, too.

Robbi (Clinton,Ky.)

Gotta go buy a new TV tonight. One of mine just quit working.

Josh (Lincoln, NE)

Anyone still watch Nip/Tuck? I gave up on it last year. It got way too weird.

Robbi (Clinton,Ky.)

I think I'm in love with Jon Gruden.

JB (Tx)

ONB

Buzzmaster

  (10:18 AM)

Let's do it.....

Baloon Boy (CO)

Dad, you said we were doing this for a show!

Zach Rastall (Marinette, WI)

People in my high school like me more than you guys. I got 12th place in the running for homecoming king.

Brian and Nate (WI)

wE aRe SO DrUNk rIGht NoW!

Aroid (NY)

Why do people call me clutch, it seems like the clutch is always going out on all my friends bikes?

Oklahoma Basketball Fans (OK)

Just because we support the Thunder doesn't mean we're stupid enough to pay go to a WNBA game.

Broncos (Denver)

Think of us what you will, but our socks are definitely NOT overrated.

luke baron (utah)

Why do you like to be a sports prodoser?

Andrew Stoumbaugh (Oklahoma City)

Those who think they can call plays better than Zorn are wrong, and they are probably the Madden players who use the same 8 plays that cheat the system. The NFL doesn't work that way.

Ryan (Florida)

How can USC be your #2 when they lose to Washington? You're knocking Alabama for losing to an undefeated team last year..USC has lost to terrible teams 3 years straight...

Robert (New Jersey)

Who will end the season with more interceptions? Mark Sanchez or Jake Delhome?

Robert (New Jersey)

What is more likely to happen in Tennessee, Jeff Fischer being fired or drafting a quarterback in the 2010 draft?

Andrew Renfro (Salt Lake City, UT)

I think Michele Is way better looking then any of the Tampa Bay cheer leaders

Dave (pa)

Phillies 3-1. Who's this Torre guy?

Nate (Madison)

Waahhhh the chargers lost.

Jay Schmitz (Herrick, South Dakota)

Why do officials keep making obvious bad call? Because they are bought, some how some way. Do you have a better (or any) explanation?

Doug Stone (in the studio)

They warned me about cigarettes, and whiskey and beer. No one ever warned me about the ONB right here. I don't guess I would listen to what they said anyway, but at least I'd been ready...when that first crappy ONB post displayed.

Buzzmaster

  (10:20 AM)

And that's it...

Cory (PA)

Ouch...early ONB onslaught, bad fake posts, bad Rastall post, awesome 2 namer from Utah, angry 2 namer (Actually Jim Zorn) and NJ Robert asking the hard-hitting questions.

Greg (Ellicott City)

Ow, my head hurts.

Jordan (Casper, WY)

Morning Buzz, I know they won and all but could someone please tell Josh McDaniels that to run the clock out in the 4th you shouldn't run it out of a single back formation

Marc (Charlotte)

Steve, it's probably more of a Hayden Panettiere thing than a Monday 9PM thing.

Matt (IN)

Good morning all. My grandmother is a better play caller than Zorn.

Robbi (Clinton,Ky.)

Oh yay!! We have returned to our normal weather here. 50's in the morning, 70's in the afternoon. Grilled out yesterday afternoon.

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

What Zach Rastall isn't telling you: His class has 11 students.

Steve (NJ)

Hulu is the networks/movie studios answer to YouTube; they put free tv episodes, old TV shows entire runs (like Highlander!), and some movies. Plus clips, if you're into it. Everything is high-quality...including the 15 second adds for Menopause drugs.

David (Ottawa)

Sorry I`m late, our secretary thinks she has h1n1 and took the week off. Now I`m playing receptionist in addition to my normal job. Gonna need to hit the bars with Nate and Co. after work.

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

I'm guessing Delhomme will end up with more interceptions because Sanchez will get benched for a few games.

Ed Hochuli (Chat Ref)

Jay Schmitz, you better not dare show your face in this chat. I'll run you out of this country let alone this chat. How dare you question the sanctity of the NFL official!

Clinton (Indianapolis)

It's not the entire run of the show, but Hulu does have the entire first season of WKRP in Cincinnati, which includes the famous turkey drop episode. Classic stuff.

Buzzmaster

  (10:23 AM)

I forget what show it was, maybe Scrubs...but I was looking for a show and an episode that I missed and it only had the last 6 episodes. Then I went to the show's website and it only had the last 6 episodes. What the heck is that?

Matt (IN)

When I was a kid my dad's favorite show was WKRP. I still remember the turkey episode. Hilarious.

Marc (Charlotte)

Does it have Cheers? *cue "NOOOORRRMMMM"

stephanie (cincy)

As God as my witness, I thought turkeys could fly

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

God as my witness, I swore that turkeys could fly!

Jordan (Casper, WY)

MNF last night, and Monday night TV schedule tonight, where would our society be right now without DVR?

Buzzmaster

  (10:24 AM)

In a dark, dark, dark place.

Brian (Madison, WI)

A.) I wasn't drunk last night, maybe slightly buzzed. 2.) Rastall is from Marinette, WI and his h.s. class can not be that big, so finishing 12th is embarassing.

Louis (Fredericton, NB)

Maybe they want you to buy the DVD of the first seasons

Nate (Madison)

A. I also was not drunk. B. I don't care if the Chargers win or lose.

Brandon (Albany)

I am still living without DVR....its rough

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

DVR is the best technological advancement I've seen since the dawn of the internet. And it didn't even involve Al Gore.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Only drawback to WKRP on Hulu: They couldn't get the music rights, so it's a bunch of filler music.

Chris (MPLS)

Buzz, the last season of Scrubs only had like 6 episodess...

Josh (Lincoln, NE)

ABC has every season of Lost on its website in HD. That's how I was able to catch up before the 4th season.

Life (Yours)

In the words of the great rich rod.....Clinton and buzz you need to get a life. Tv watching causing brain degeneration.

paul (richardson middle school)

wassup ppl im supposed 2 be doing my work but who cares

Buzzmaster

  (10:27 AM)

Good call.

Steve (NJ)

Buzz, that's totally an ABC-thing. I had the same problem...so I gave up. Not going to watch the last season of Scrubs. Thanks ABC!

Buzzmaster

  (10:27 AM)

Yeah, but I checked other shows on other sites and they didn't seem to have a lot of old episodes either. At least for the shows I checked.

Cory (PA)

Gonna throw this out there...Anyone remember Sifl and Ollie? There has been a dearth of quality sock puppet programming on cable since their departure.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

I seem to recall in high school that the only person who found out where they finished in the homecoming king voting was the guy who won.

Buzzmaster

  (10:28 AM)

Well, to be fair to Rastall, I'm sure a lot has changed since when you were in high school....Though I do give you props on actually being able to remember those days. Jolly good, old man.

Josh (Lincoln, NE)

I'm sure high schools are different, but yeah, mine was that way too.

Cory (PA)

The Morning Buzz - Where corrupting a minor is the least of our sins!

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Cory: I absolutely remember Sifl and Olly. Great show!

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

Ah, the youth of America. You go get 'em, paul!

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Aw, come on, Carl in Chicago, you can post under your real name. It's alright, we all know it's you anyway...

Al Gore (Cyberspace)

I invented the DVR...It was Outstanding Work!

Steve Smith (Carolina)

I am no longer an asset to this chat.

Greg (Ellicott City)

Dont encourage the Middle Schoolers.

Pete (NC)

Just wondering if anyone knows how to hook up an additional receiver to a Directv satellite by yourself?

Buzzmaster

  (10:29 AM)

I'm guessing it involves wires.

Louis (Fredericton, NB)

Rastall must have been in charge of the voting. Even by stacking the votes for him, He couldn't do better than 12th

Chris (MPLS)

Buzz, you ever check out surfthechannel.com? They have a lot on there and links to other sites that have episodes

Buzzmaster

  (10:30 AM)

Well, I'll have to check that out.

Nate (Madison)

I heard Rastell agreed to a special run-off election after claims of fraud were found to be true.

Robbi (Clinton,Ky.)

It's not that hard Pete. I've seen it done several times.

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

My son either bruised or cracked my ribs doing some kind of flying ninja move at me last night. It hurts when I breathe.

J.B. (Dunmore, PA)

Check this out. I looked it up and someone tried to decipher the words to the closing credits to WKRP. Her's what they came up with: Mad tooth bar chin-up box zing outta her hair still do the modern day whack-a-mole ditto what's that? good bar tender I'da hat beer 'n head out I said I wouldn't do it if a poodle had a lid on. I think RGR came up with this.

Josh (Lincoln, NE)

I'm guessing I wouldn't do it myself in fear of screwing up the whole package.

stephanie (cincy)

We didn't even have a homecoming king, only a queen and her court. My senior year, all of them ended up pregnant

paul (richardson middle school)

haha im in science lab i hate this class

Greg (Ellicott City)

Hulu > Surfthechannel > Rastall. Boo Rastall.

joe (nm)

DVR saves Marriages.

Matt (IN)

Not to be mean here (well, maybe), but there is this lady that works here who is ridiculously obese. She is constantly talking about food or eating a bunch of stuff she shouldn't. Anyway, today she is wearing purple and she looks like Grimmace.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

I think I remember reading somewhere that they deliberately came up with nonsense lyrics for the song at the end, J.B.

Zack (Louisville, KY)

Buzz refuses run-off elections. Because he's fat.

Johnstone (Wicker Park)

Your son is Ralph Macchio?

Scott (Brewtown)

Paul, my son is in middle school and if I found him chatting on here.....Heads would roll, my friend, heads would roll.

Brian (Madison, WI)

Matt that was extremely mean, but I couldn't hold back laughing.

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

I felt pretty bad laughing at that, Matt. But I laughed nonetheless.

Mike (Peabody,Ma)

The Phillies are going to the World Series... they are such an overall great team and plus their offense is AMAZING! Pitching could be a little better, but i have a feeling that in Game 5 the Phillies bats will be hot and that will win them the game.

The Devil (Hell)

Yes, we have a reservation for a Matt in Indiana...uh huh...yes...well of course it's smoking!

Josh (Lincoln, NE)

Hey Paul, there are these long horizontal keys on your keyboard named "Shift." Get to know them.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Didn't laugh, but I did smirk.

Steph"s theme song (WKRP)

Baby, if you ever wondered...wondered whatever happened to me. I'm living on the air in cincinatti, stabbing and hating on SNMB.

paul (richardson middle school)

Haha that suck for him

Buzzmaster

  (10:35 AM)

From what I can tell, paul is either in California, Florida, Texas, Maryland or Pennsylvania.

tom* (parkville, md)

Sorry. Stephanie's theme song should be Mack the Knife.

Cory (PA)

Is chaz here? I don't remember the last time I had a ruckus update.

JB (TX)

That steph theme song made me laugh

Zack (Louisville, KY)

What you guys don't know: paul is a teacher at that school

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Now the theme song got a laugh!

Scott (Brewtown)

I didn't laugh, just Grimaced.

Greg (Ellicott City)

Capitalization doesnt get taught at Richardson Middle School. He has to wait until High School for that.

Steve (NJ)

I apparently got one vote for Homecoming King; but I won "most talkative" in a landslide.

Robbi (Clinton,Ky.)

I like people that call me up and start to chew me out, and they have the wrong number. Geez!

Clinton (Indianapolis)

*spits out coffee* Well done, Scott.

Greg (Ellicott City)

Please dont let it be Maryland...

Buzzmaster

  (10:36 AM)

Why not Grason? Sure he'd fit right in with you.

Josh (Lincoln, NE)

That is why I don't answer numbers I don't know. If it's important, leave a voicemail.

Robbi (Clinton,Ky.)

Good one Scott.

paul (richardson middle school)

buzzmaster one of them is right

JB (TX)

Well, there is a Richardson, Texas.

John (In)

I think Philly will win this Div.

Ben (NC )

And that's why you are a lawyer steve.

Scott (Brewtown)

I was voted most likely to waste an hour a day chatting about WKRP, pop-tarts and Grimace.

Greg (Ellicott City)

I cant spell, but I know about the shift key.

Cory (PA)

Richardson, Texas is overrated.

Ben (NC)

Hey steph coffee clean up in indianapolis,

J.B. (Dunmore, PA)

I don't answer any phones between 10:02 AM - 11:00 AM Monday through Friday.

Buzzmaster

  (10:37 AM)

Why even answer them at all?

fred (omaha)

ive been to cincinnati before, but i dont drink coffee

Zack (Louisville, KY)

The subtle jab from J.B. about Buzz's tardiness.

Cory (PA)

A phone has never once asked me a question.

David Bing (Detroit, MI)

Great, we just lost the Shock to Tulsa. Will the last person to leave this dreadful city please turn off the burning garbage.

Steve (NJ)

Hmmm...let's see: watch the Yankees/Angels game, or another episode of Big Fat Loser? Tough call, really. Sabathia v. a house of hippos.

ESPN Operator (via mobile)

Buzz, white courtesy phone. Buzz, white courtesy phone. *Buzz picks up red phone* No, the white one.

stephanie (cincy)

I will tell Clinton what I tell the guys here: Your mother doesn't work here, clean it up yourself!

JB (TX)

Actually Richardson, TX is in the DFW area, and filled w/a bunch of snobby rich kids.

kyle (astoria)

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO GATORS

J.B. (Dunmore, PA)

What if Grimace made a guest appearance on WKRP and ate a pop tart?

paul (richardson middle school)

So how bout my gators they gonna whip up on texas in the champ gamee

Buzzmaster

  (10:40 AM)

There's the answer. I'm calling your school and your teacher.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Great Airplane reference from the ESPN Operator.

Grimace (McDonalds)

Somebody call me?

J.B. (Dunmore, PA)

With 'Hell's Kitchen' finished for the season, my 8:00 PM TV watching has become wide open.

Zack (Louisville, KY)

A house of actual hippos would be pretty interesting.

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

Detroit losing the Shock is . . . *yawn* . . . *stretch* . . . Wait, what were we talking about again?

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Yeah, instead of Meerkat Manor, they could call it Hippo House or Hippo Hut.

Marc (Charlotte)

Buzz, isn't it too early for it to be a west coast school?

Greg (Ellicott City)

Detroit is still there?

Cory (PA)

I thought Grimace was still in prison for the FryGuy massacre of '03...

Tom (Southport )

So Detroit is losing the Shock? Think Tulsa will take the Lions and the Ford family with them?

tom* (parkville, md)

Way to go Tulsa! That should put you on the map!

Nate (Madison)

Where'd the Shock move to? Tulsa? Uh oh, they are going to have to compete with the Golden Hurricanes fan base now? Are they going to fill whatever barn they play in?

Josh (Lincoln, NE)

What ISN'T Detroit losing?

Buzzmaster

  (10:43 AM)

We'll all be sorry in 2037 when Detroit makes a furious come back and becomes the center of the world's economy and art districts. Who'll be laughing then?

Ben (NC)

Cory that was the Hamburgler.

Jeremy (NYC)

I think I'm gonna be Joe Girardi for Halloween - I'll just keep changing my costume every 10 minutes for no reason until I run out of them by midnight.

Buzzmaster

  (10:44 AM)

Gimme a break. The Yankees lost one game. Get over it already. Girardi's been managing the same way all year and the team won 103 games. Didn't hear this many people complaining then.

Fake Clinton (Indianapolis)

2037??? I don't have that long....

Johnstone (Wicker Park)

They need to change the name from Shock. Something more fitting like the Tulsa Dust Bowl.

Jordan (Casper, WY)

i will buzz

Brian (Madison, WI)

I'm glad today is Tuesday, which means basketball day. I think Nate knows not to come into my paint after last week.

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

I will be laughing then, Buzz. I will be your leader.

ruckus (sa tx)

i heard you guys wanted an update on me. here it is: sleep, eat, watch baby

Rich Rodriguez (Ann Arbor)

People who will be sorry in 2037 need to get lives. By the way, that's when my current practice ends.

Brian (Madison, WI)

71% of people could not call better plays than Jim Zorn. Get serious people.

J.B. (Dunmore, PA)

Girardi made a bad move yesterday. Most managers do that every now and then. No big deal. Move on, people.

Robbi (Clinton,Ky.)

So Brian owns the paint now.

Steve (NJ)

If I worked for a guy like Gordon Ramsay, I'd punch him in the neck. I don't care how good you are at what you do, you don't get to yell at me for no reason. Now, if you've got a reason to yell at me...fire away.

Buzzmaster

  (10:46 AM)

I don't care what I've done, no yelling. I've worked for enough bosses who yelled, though I've never been yelled at myself. Regardless, I'm no longer working at those places.

Nate (Madison)

Blah blah blah....unless I get teamed up with tweedle dee and tweedle dum, Brian is going to be on the losing end of each game today.

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

Ah, a good old neck punching reference. I've long contended that the neck is a completely underrated place to punch someone.

JB (TX)

100% of people that have ever played Madden believe they could call better plays than Jim Zorn.

Josh (Lincoln, NE)

Yeah, I certainly couldn't deal with Ramsay, but it's fun to watch him do it to other people.

Vicki (Indiana)

I'm having a chocolate chip muffin right now. Waiting for class to start

Johnstone (Wicker Park)

Brian is the Dikembe Mutombo of the MB?

Johnstone (Wicker Park)

Last year my friend was Mark Chmura and his wife was a high school cheerleader for halloween. Classic.

MY COMMENT AT 10.55AM TOTHE MORNING BUZZ NOW BUZZ IGONNA EGG BUZZ DRESS UP AS THE PULSE

Cory (PA)

Fake ruckus...you forgot poop and eat garbage. Whichever order you decide is fine.

Buzzmaster

  (10:47 AM)

As opposed to the real ruckus who posts on here?

Nate (Madison)

I'm fairly confident in saying that Brian has never blocked a shot of mine....ever.

BB (Looney Toons)

I'm not a roasting rabbit. I'm a fricaseeing rabbit.

Cory (PA)

You don't punch him in the neck, you stab him, drag him into his office and cover him with a tablecloth. Then you get back to work, slacker.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Those 71% who think they could call plays better than Zorn probably has a lot of the same people who think they could take a punch from Floyd Mayweather or beat Phil Ivey heads-up at the poker table.

Jeremy (NYC)

Buzz, I'm a big Girardi supporter and a Yankee fan, but even in game 2 he didn't use his bullpen guys correctly, ie. using Joba for 1 batter (imo). If the game went 14+ innings he had nobody left. It seems he still has a National league mentality in his managing instead of just letting things play out. Again, just my opinion.

Buzzmaster

  (10:48 AM)

That's fine. Everyone is allowed an opinion. However, I'll go with the guy who knows more about baseball than anyone in this room. Not to mention, you don't really manage a game thinking it will go 14+ innings.

Zack (Louisville, KY)

You mean a dog isn't capable of using a computer to type and submit witty utterances to a bunch of strangers?

Josh (Lincoln, NE)

Oh, you could take one punch from Floyd Mayweather. Wladimir Klitschko? Nah.

Brian (Madison, WI)

I may have never blocked a shot of yours Nate, but I blocked your face. Enough to make you think about it next time you come at me.

JB (TX)

Fake ruckus? Ruckus is a dog. If the real Ruckus starts submitting posts that would truly be something special.

J.B. (Dunmore, PA)

Ramsay gets the most out of his chefs, though...at least the ones with talent. In the end the good ones get what he's trying to do. The ones who aren't good enough consider criming Ramsay.

Josh (Lincoln, NE)

That would be an interesting experiment. Have a fan raffle and allow them to call the plays and see what happens.

stephanie (cincy)

Gordon Ramsay would never get away with the stuff he does on TV in a real restaurant. There are laws about "creating a hostile work environment"

Vicki (Indiana)

I say it's going to be a Phillies-Yankees World Series

Steve (NJ)

Buzz, in my line of work, getting yelled at because Mr. Senior Partner dropped the ball is a fact of life. Let's just say that I've developed a 'times yelled at/bonus dollars' scale. It's a crappy rate of exchange, but it works.

Stephen (NSB,FL)

The Yankees killed Joba due to the way they've used him

Tom (Southport )

Didn't the one guy on Hell's Kitchen try to fight Ramsay this season? Ramsay asked him to name the two nominees for elimination and why, and the guy snapped.

Robbi (Clinton,Ky.)

OK so Jeremy.. why aren't you a manager?

Nate (Madison)

My Max costume from Where The Wild Things Are is looking pretty sweet, outstanding work on the part of my aunt. I'm considering wearing it to the tailgate parties for the UW/Purdue game on Halloween.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Lunch: Sandwich, chips and a soda while reading the excerpt of Klosterman's book on Page 2.

Josh (Lincoln, NE)

I would love to see those laws, stephanie, because I'm pretty sure they don't exist. Not in my state anyway.

Vicki (Indiana)

Stephanie, someone needs to tell a few of my coworkers that

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

Ramsay doesn't act like that in a real restaurant, only on Hell's Kitchen. Check out Kitchen Nightmares sometime for the real Ramsay. Quality show.

Johnstone (Wicker Park)

Vicki is going out on a limb...

Cory (PA)

I have more faith that the real ruckus is posting than the real RGR

Nate (Madison)

I have a voicemail but I don't remember my password......damn it.

Jordan (Casper, WY)

please don't go too far out on that limb vicki

Robbi (Clinton,Ky.)

Lunch: I think I'll go to McDonalds today. Thanks guys. They have unsweet tea.

J.B. (Dunmore, PA)

Tom: Yep. The guy was a former Marine. Marines don't like it when someone who isn't their military superior yells at them.

Louis (Fredericton, NB)

In fact, most of the top chefs in France (where Ramsay spent a few years) treat their staff like that. He's not inventing anything. That's the mentality back there. You get s---ted on until you're the big dog, then you s--- on people

Scott (Brewtown)

Well we've got our 9th annual Halloween party on Saturday. First one without kids as they are getting too old to keep entertained, so our attendance looks to drop from over 60 adults to only 25. Hmmm a lot of friends were apparently just moochers

Cory (PA)

Lunch: the ol' toss up between BK and subway...feels like a highway robbery, my money or my health.

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

Lunch: Meatball and Monterey Jack sammich on sourdough bread, all made by my wife. Outstanding work!

J.B. (Dunmore, PA)

LUNCH: Grilled chicken wrap...I won't bore you with the rest. You know how it ends.

Marc (Charlotte)

I don't think I've dressed up for Halloween in 5 years.

Jordan (Casper, WY)

lunch today will be thin crust papa johns and breadsticks with cheese

Nate (Madison)

I saw on CNN.com that one of the Pratts got a DUI. I prayed it was that Spencer guy....I've seen limited shows with him on it, when my roommate turns it on, and I already wish bad things to happen to him

Matt (via Albany)

Lunch Chat: Nathan's hoot dogs

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Nate: You have to wear the Max costume to tailgating on Halloween. It's state law!

stephanie (cincy)

Sure they do, they are federal laws and apply to every state. They fall under Title 7. Cursing at employees and calling them names is not ok.

Tom (Southport )

Lunch: leftover pizza from last night. The rest of today will be spent working on my take home midterms. Blech.

Zack (Louisville, KY)

I'm thinking of going as Billy Mays for Halloween. Any thoughts?

Buzzmaster

  (10:53 AM)

I try not to.

Scott (Brewtown)

I will be dressed Devo, since I had to waste money on it for an 80's party last winter.

Josh (Lincoln, NE)

You need a new roommate, Nate, if he watches that crap.

Vicki (Indiana)

not sure what I'm having for lunch yet

stephanie (cincy)

Zack, too soon

Steve (NJ)

Brian, if Nate wears a kitty-cat costume to a football game, please post pictures on the FB page. Also, crime him in some notorious manner.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Spencer and Heidi belong to a little club I have that's called: People I'm mad at just because I know who they are.

Stephen (NSB,FL)

Zack:to soon

Greg (Ellicott City)

Lunch: $5 footlong.

paul (richardson middle school)

lunch: sloppy joes and tater tots in detention

Robbi (Clinton,Ky.)

No Zach Bad taste.

Buzzmaster

  (10:55 AM)

Really? Everyone's against the Billy Mays idea? I kinda like it.

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

My favorite costume of all time was Ash from Evil Dead 2. That was fun. Second favorite: Alex from A Clockwork Orange.

Josh (Lincoln, NE)

Bad taste is what makes memorable costumes.

Brian (Madison, WI)

I have no idea what I'm going as for Halloween. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Vicki (Indiana)

Paul, ewww school food

Nate (Madison)

Steve, the costume is awesomesauce.....I will not be ashamed. By the way it's suppose to be a wolf not cat. I hate cats.

Scott (Brewtown)

Aah, middle school sloppy joes.....knuckles with ketchup

J.B. (Dunmore, PA)

Great chat as always, group. Still some playoff baseball to watch tonight. Stay safe, catch some reruns of WKRP, and if you are weight-challenged, avoid wearning purple. Until tomorrow, peace.

The Buggles (LA)

Girardi killed the late inning star!

Stephen (NSB,FL)

Im gonna be Brett Favre...wait....not anymore....or maybe...no,no...

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Well, if you're going to do the Billy Mays costume, put a little powdered sugar around your nostrils. If you're going to go with something inappropriate, might as well go full speed ahead.

Nate (Madison)

For Halloween. I am going to be sober.

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

My son was a zebra the past two years, this year he is a lion. He's moving up the food chain.

stephanie (cincy)

I went as Sarah Palin last year and my son was Joe the Plumber

Stephanie (IL)

GO Broncos!!!!!! 6-0 baby

Zack (Louisville, KY)

Maybe I'll give my costume idea some more thought.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

My friend and his wife went as a plug and socket last year. Pretty funny, actually.

Cory (PA)

Have a great day Morning Buzzers! And remember, there is never a right time to drop turkeys out of helicopters!

JB (TX)

Lunch: not sure yet. Also, I'm not sure if I can call plays better than Zorn, but I'm 100% sure I can manage a 2 minute drill better than Andy Reid. I'm just sayin...

Clay (Hillsdale, MI)

Last year I went as Three-Hole Punch Jim. Not sure what Office direction I want to go this year

Scott (Brewtown)

Have a swell Tuesday everybody!

Robbi (Clinton,Ky.)

We have a parade here. The adults go all out with costumes and floats.

Zack (Louisville, KY)

Stay in school, paul.

Vicki (Indiana)

gotta go. class is starting

Nate (Madison)

Lunch: Some sort of sandwich.....not sure what kind. T-minus about 15 days until jewelry and diamond ad's flood the airwaves.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Alright, people, enjoy the rest of your day and stay classy!

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

Go figure that stephanie has some really scary costume ideas.

Josh (Lincoln, NE)

I had a friend go as a gift-wrapped box with a tag that said To: Women From: God

Robbi (Clinton,Ky.)

Happy Tuesday. see y'all tomorrow. Bye.

Buzzmaster

  (11:00 AM)

All right. We're done here. Thanks for stopping by everyone. Until tomorrow morning, stay classy SportsNation!
