  (10:00 AM)

Goooooooood morning!

Neal (Philly)

Morning Buzz. I feel like you this morning. I can't stop eating.

Santa Claus (North Pole`)

44 shopping days left. Be good, cause I'm watching.

Greg (Ellicott City)

Good morning Buzz.

Matt (Portland, ME)

Good morning everybody. Sad to hear about Kareem.

Ryan (San Diego)

In the words of Dennis Green, the Broncos are who I thought they were

Buzzmaster

  (10:01 AM)

By that you mean in first place over the Chargers?

Scott (Kenosha via Brewtown)

Good Morning!!

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

Starting today's MB with some Spinal Tap.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Really, are we going to have to put with PCB's ranting and raving all morning?

Ronald (DC)

Girls Soccer is becoming the roughest sport in this country.

Quentin (Green Bay)

Morning everyone. Oh and to Whisenhunt, all I can say is nicely played sir.

Ryan (San Diego)

Ha first place. They were in first place with 3 games left last year. They are starting to fade once again. Known for fast starts and hard falls

J-Man (Kutztown)

Morning Buzz what do you think about the Steelers?

Matt (Portland, ME)

I just hope Tom (Texas) doesn't bother today.

J-Man (Kutztown)

I agree with you Ronald. Pulling hair: Yes. Snapping her neck no

Robbi (Clinton, Ky)

Wow the Steelers looked really good in the 2nd half. I love my high def!

Josh (Lincoln, NE)

Is San Diego known for not winning anything?

Clinton (Indianapolis)

My biq question is: Is there a couch burning somewhere in Houston this morning?

Nate (Madison)

Evan Turner for Ohio State...I don't care if it's against Alcorn St, 14pts/10ast/17reb is sick.

Buzzmaster

  (10:04 AM)

Ain't that the guy that the "Club Trillion" writer is always making fun of?

The Mayor (HockeyTown USA)

How about "The Captain" at the HHOF Induction last night? All sports need a man like Steve Yzerman representing them. What a class act on and off the ice!!!! Congrats number 19, your the BEST!!!!

Matt (Portland, ME)

There was a girls soccer fight in RI this weekend too.

Matt (IN)

Good morning everyone. Buzz please call The Suits and get that picture of Orton of the main page. No one really needs to see that.

Quentin (Green Bay)

Ryan, the Broncos have lost to 2 very good teams in a row, and they played the Steelers tough. My advice for you is to shut up, just shut up.

Ben (Tempe, AZ)

Ended up winning 3 leagues this week by 2 points or less. Needed less then 21 by pts Mendenhall in one and he got 20. Needed less then 2 points by Moreno in one and he got 0. Needed 16 points by Steelers Def in the other and they got it. Crazy how it can all work out sometimes

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Good on ESPN for concealing the winner of the WSOP main event. All the other news websites? Not so much...

Greg (Ellicott City)

When I put my shirt on today, my collar popped. I felt like i was in San Diego. And like I was a huge tool.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Ben, that's another rule around here: We don't care about your fantasy teams. Just keep that in mind going forward.

danielle (PhenixCity Al)

i love lebron james he is the best in the NBA

Guy (Jacksonville)

Can't wait until next MNF game...Balt/Cleve

J-Man (Kutztown)

Ben I'm 9-0 so don't get too proud. Next I'm going to take the MLB fantasy league by storm so watch out...

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

A court just held that Disney's ban of Segways at its theme parks did not violate the Americans with Disabilities Act. A great day for your boss' bosses, Buzz.

Buzzmaster

  (10:07 AM)

Didn't even know that was an issue. Thanks for the info.

Ryan (San Diego)

Quentin, they've been exposed. Their offense can't do anything more than throw 8 yard routes and teams have adjusted. Why do you think they have 0 offensive tds the last two games?

The Mayor (HockeyTown USA)

I would love to see the 2002 Red Wings against the 1986 Oilers...wow, what a matchup that would be

Zack (Louisville, KY)

Late, but I'm here.

Matt (IN)

How could anyone get excited about Baltimore against Cleveland?

Ryan (San Diego)

Greg, it wasn't the shirt making you feel like a huge tool

Robbi (Clinton, Ky)

I wanted the logger to win.

Ben (Tempe, AZ)

Clinton has taken on a mentorship role for me. Is that a good thing?

Matt (Portland, ME)

Buzz is so fat that soon he'll need a Segway.

Buzzmaster

  (10:08 AM)

Aren't you standing up on Segways?

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

In the battle of Grason v. Ryan this morning . . . I think I have to side with Grason.

JB (TX)

What? You mean nobody cares about my genius decision to start Matt Ryan over Roethlisberger? Yeah, I lost...

Johnstone (Wicker Park)

The Controller at my company slurps his coffee every morning. I put on my head phones until he's done. I want to end him.

Nate (Madison)

So the first song that came on today was Runaround Sue. Don't ask why it's on my mp3 player, because I don't have a legit answer. I'm just trying to figure out what kind of day it's showing me by that being the song that popped up.

Greg (Ellicott City)

Clinton has mentored many people; Cesar, Washinton, Lincoln...

Marc (Charlotte)

JB, cheer yourself up and visit Best Buy.

Robbi (Clinton, Ky)

I hate to say this, but I am tired of getting run over by old people in those ride on things at Walmart. I have been run into at least 4 times, just lately.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Nate, there's absolutely nothing wrong with Runaround Sue. That's a great song.

Quentin (Green Bay)

Maybe because they played two phenomenal defenses. I'm not saying that's the only reason they're offense isn't scoring because they aren't up to their normal level, but it's not like they were shut out by the Browns.

Bears Nation (Chicago)

Orton is who we thought he was!!!

Brian (Madison, WI)

Runaround Sue? I think it means you are going to get drunk or hit by a bus.

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

Well, Grason had my support . . . until he made the same Clinton joke he made yesterday.

Zack (Louisville, KY)

Who voted "Yes" to the Bucs to continue wearing the Creamsicle unis?

Buzzmaster

  (10:11 AM)

Why wouldn't you vote yes? If that team wants to continue to embarrass itself by wearing those god awful things, then I say keep wearing them and be a laughing stock.

Marc (Charlotte)

Probably Rastall.

Ryan (San Diego)

The Ravens are no longer a phenomenal defense. The Bengals had no problem scoring on them and neither did the other teams they have played including the Chiefs

Buzzmaster

  (10:12 AM)

No one cares.

Guy (Jacksonville)

Nobody has mentioned Tebow yet/today, sorry I had to get it over with.

Josh (Lincoln, NE)

Ooh ooh I did. I just like to laugh at their helmets.

J-Man (Kutztown)

I did Creamsicle is awesome.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Fine, we get it Ryan, you're anti-Denver. Let it go already.

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

I voted yes. Seeing Bucco Bruce again increases the humor factor of the NFL tenfold.

Matt (Portland, ME)

The Pats should wear their old unis every game.

Ben (Tempe, AZ)

When is it too late to start Chtistmas shopping? My gf asked me if I thought about what I was going to get her for Christmas yet. I can't even decide what I'm going to have for lunch

Buzzmaster

  (10:13 AM)

I would say Christmas morning.

Ray (Seattle)

Buzz likes Creamsicles. You know...because he is fat.

micheal (oregon)

thoses are the best jerseys for the bucs

Johnstone (Wicker Park)

I really want the Denver Nuggets to go back to their old uniforms from the ABA days.

Ryan (San Diego)

Where is michael? He's the only thing missing for me this morning

Josh (Lincoln, NE)

Ryan should charge the Broncos rent for all the space they take up in his head.

Nate (Madison)

One of my ex girlfriends used to always order these dreamsicle drinks. God I hated those.

Robbi (Clinton, Ky)

Who would dress a pirate in creamy orange?

Clinton (Indianapolis)

I'd say give yourself at least two weeks, Ben, and whatever you do, don't go anywhere near a mall the weekend after Thanksgiving. You will see things you can't possibly un-see.

Robbi (Clinton, Ky)

Nice one Josh.

Matt (IN)

Speaking of Denny Green's rant, Whisenhunt ended his press conf Sunday by saying "We didn't let 'em off the hook"

Nate (Madison)

Drunk tonight? Not tonight, maybe Thursday after my interview and basketball game. I'll have a reason to celebrate I hope.

JB (TX)

I start Christmas shopping on Dec 23rd. Takes all the guesswork out of it, you just get what you can get and move on...

Johnstone (Wicker Park)

You can not take advice on jerseys from a guy from Oregon.

Josh (Lincoln, NE)

Christmas shopping is one of my all-time least favorite activities. I never know what to get people.

Quentin (Green Bay)

Hey, the Bucs weren't the laughing stocks last week, the Packers were because they lost to a bunch of Creamsicles. Oh and Ryan, the Broncos have beat the Chargers this year, end of discussion. Now quit wasting oxygen.

Matt (Portland, ME)

I went to the mall at 4AM on Black Friday last year. Worst mistake ever.

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

I love the crowds during Christmas time. My wife and I go shopping every Black Friday morning. I have elbows, they work, I don't mind using them.

Nate (Madison)

Compared to the dreamsicle drink, the girl I've been mildly talking to now likes PBR in a can. Now that I can live with.

Sean (Philly)

It is all the testosterone in Women's soccer that is leading to these fights. They need to ban steroids like everyone else.

Robbi (Clinton, Ky)

I'm going to the easy way out this year. Gift cards all around.

Zack (Louisville, KY)

5 days, 10 hours until Pats vs Colts.

Neal (Philly)

This year will be the first time in 5 years I don't go shopping on Black Friday.

Buzzmaster

  (10:16 AM)

Finally stopped popping the crazy pills.

Nate (Madison)

Tom boxes out while his wife comes in and grabs the gift(s)

Robbi (Clinton, Ky)

I have never been to black Friday. I always have to work. I call foul.

Guy (Jacksonville)

Christmas, the true meaning...Cavs/Lakers

Neal (Philly)

I don't need crazy pills, Buzz. I'm already there.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Hats off to you, Tom. You couldn't pay me enough money to go shopping on Black Friday.

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

Nate: you can do a lot more than "mildly talk" to girls when they actually speak English.

Ryan (San Diego)

Tom just admitted to loving shopping. Buzz, take one of his man cards

Marc (Charlotte)

Speaking of women's soccer, I'd like to congratulate the UNC Women's Soccer team for winning their 20th ACC tournament title.

Zack (Louisville, KY)

I'm always travelling on Black Friday.

Buzzmaster

  (10:17 AM)

Running from the cops does not equal traveling.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Actually, I think he admitted more to loving to throw elbows, for that he should get an extra one, right?

Ben (Tempe, AZ)

This bar here promotes 1 dollar PBR cans on Wednesday nights.

Josh (Lincoln, NE)

I went to Black Friday once to get a great deal on a plasma TV 3 years ago. I need a new one, but I don't know if I can do it again.

Marc (Charlotte)

Tom elbows someone out of the way so he can get a "Tickle-Me Elmo" *Outstanding work*

Nate (Madison)

Thanksgiving does have one thing going for it: Planes, Trains, and Automobiles. THOSE AREN'T PILLOWS!

Brian (Madison, WI)

I have yet to meet this girl that Nate is talking to. I think there is a reason for that.

Johnstone (Wicker Park)

That was the funniest thing you've said in months Buzz, well done.

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

Don't get me wrong, though: There's NO WAY that I'll ever get up at 4:00 a.m. to shop. The earliest I've been out on Black Friday is 10:00 a.m.

Nate (Madison)

Brian met her at the Halloween party, he even has a picture with her. He was just too drunk to remember.

Marc (Charlotte)

And cue the Bus Driver in Madison....

Captain Jack (Black Pearl)

I could carry off Creamsicle, not so sure about any other pirates.

Matt (Portland, ME)

But then Tom you miss most of the early bird specials!!!!111!!!1!

Bus Driver (Madison)

*THUD* Hey, there's Nate on the sidewalk, must mean I just ran over Brian.

Josh (Lincoln, NE)

I just stayed up drinking on Thanksgiving and had my then-girlfriend drive me to Best Buy. Quite the experience.

Robbi (Clinton, Ky)

The wheels on the bus go round and round.

stephanie (cincy)

Two places you will never find me on Thanksgiving weekend; the Mall or an Airport

Brian (Madison, WI)

Oh that girl! I didn't even know he was talking to that one. Was thinking of another one.

Buzzmaster

  (10:21 AM)

I was listening to an Adam Carolla podcast this morning and he was talking about this show his kids watch and it has a song by the Wabba Wabbas or something like that. And the song is about how cool you are and how you don't have to do anything to be cool. Listening to Carolla's rant on it was classic.

Neal (Philly)

I'm flying to Chicago the week before Thanksgiving. The only craziness I hope to have are the adventures in the city.

Ed Hochuli (Chat Ref)

Matt, we don't approve of excessive punctuation. That's 15 yards. Repeat 1st down.

Quentin (Green Bay)

The two places you'll find me Thanksgiving weekend: home and deer stand

JB (TX)

Why would you go to Best Buy with a girlfriend? Defeats the purpose doesn't it?

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

I got a very good brand of miter saw and a huge tool chest from Home Depot last Black Friday. My total bill: $40. Yeah, I'll take the crowds if I can get deals like those.

Buzzmaster

  (10:22 AM)

Hmmmm. I do need me a good miter saw.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

I try to do as much of my Christmas shopping as I can online. I'm not a big fan of malls to start with, and I'm definitely not a fan of malls with lots of people in them.

Johnstone (Wicker Park)

I don't quite understand why Safin thinks that because Agassi failed a single drug test that he should return all of his titles and cash. He is a jag.

Ben (Tempe, AZ)

I do like looking at the ads for Black Friday. Then I can be like wow that TV would be awesome if I was crazy and woke up at the time I'll likely be going to bed.

Patrick (Sixburgh)

Superbowl Picks everyone, time to get some sports into this chat

Buzzmaster

  (10:22 AM)

Nope sorry. Your watch is off.

Robbi (Clinton, Ky)

What are you having for Thanksgiving dinner Buzz?

Buzzmaster

  (10:23 AM)

Well, after a few years of having both LadyBuzz's parents as well as MommaBuzz and PoppaBuzz for Thanksgiving, it will just be me, LadyBuzz and her folks. So less food and more leftovers.

Johnstone (Wicker Park)

Robbi, the question should have been "What are you not having for Thanksgiving dinner Buzz?"

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

It'd be quicker if Buzz listed what he wasn't having for Thanksgiving dinner: Steak . . . and . . . umm . . . just steak.

Neal (Philly)

Robbi, we don't have enough time for Buzz to answer that question.

Nate (Madison)

Sixburgh, huh? Never heard of it.

Sean (Philly)

Ben, you could always just cut out the picture of the TV, and hang it on your wall. That is what Buzz does.

Greg (Ellicott City)

Safin should return his multiple grand slam victories. Oh wait...

Tim T (Detroit, MI)

Just as long as it's a Binford, Buzz.

Nate (Madison)

Agassi was on crystal meth, not like he was on steroids. They are quite different, I don't get the outrage either.

Marc (Charlotte)

More Leftovers = More food for Buzz to eat, cuz ya know Buzz is fat.

Ryan (San Diego)

Leftovers at a Thanksgiving Buzz attends...good one

Dave (vt)

Thanksgiving is overrated, i mean its just eating, drinking and football.

Ryan (San Diego)

Crystal Meth actually hurt his performance. He dropped to like 150 in the world

Buzzmaster

  (10:25 AM)

Everyone's giving him such a hard time about this and I don't get it. He seems like a stand up guy and if he did something wrong and lied about it, it's probably been bugging him since he did it. So, by telling the story, he can purge himself. Leave the guy alone already.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Eating, drinking, and football: Three of the best activities in the world, and combined together. Therefore, Thanksgiving is awesomesauce.

Quentin (11 Titles Bay)

How would you like if I did that, Patrick? Looks pretty crappy doesn't it?!?

Neal (Philly)

I'm going to meet my sister's future in-laws for the first time. It should be interesting.

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

Dave forgot about the trytophan (sp?) induced evening coma.

Johnstone (Wicker Park)

Exactly Dave, it is wonderful...

Steve (Dallas, TX)

Dave, those are the 3 keys to life!

Eric (Chicago)

Late to the chat...darn meetings!

Daryl (Cottondale,Al)

everyone is wondering if BAMA can stay focused on an undefeated season with the SEC championship game set, but Florida is the one who has never had an undefeated season. BAMA has had several

JB (TX)

Agassi should have to give back titles for wearing a weave and hanging out w/Barbara Striesand. Other than that, he's good in my book.

Matt (Portland, ME)

Buzz, ONB?

Buzzmaster

  (10:27 AM)

Let's do it...

Nick (Ypsilanti, MI)

Lions should pick up Larry Johnson.

Joey D (Denver)

How about Michael Vick in Denver??

mike kuhlmann (lacrosse wisconsin)

with the division seemingly a wrap should the vikings start pulling big name players earlier in the game if they are ahead

RAY GORDON REID ( DENVER COLORADO 802O5)

GOODRUBYTUESDAY MORINGBUZZ MYCOMMENT AT 9.50 RIGHT NOW BUZZ DARN STEELERS

Steve (NJ)

Hawaii is beautiful. I will make sure to bring back many pictures of my honeymoon and post them on mb fb. How about those steelers last night.

Jorge Posada (NYC)

You know since i am a bad baserunner and only a fair catcher, I think I will DH and extend my career. Be obscenely overpaid is a wonderful thing.

DeeNice (Iraq)

Want to say that I am watching you on AFN network great job by the way,But how can Colin have such a Man Crush on Tom Brady when he is sittin next to Michelle!!But the show is great guys,you guys are totolly funny together,Keep up the great work! Go Steelers!!!!

whogitdabiscuit (Ga)

Will Michael Turner increase his production during the second half of the season?

Steve (NJ via Hawaii)

Morning all. It is almost 2 a.m. here. Being married is awesome.

Buzzmaster

  (10:28 AM)

And that's it....

Sean (Philly)

I am hosting Thanksgiving for the 3rd year in a row. Since I am unemployed, I will passing on the full filet tenderloins and Turkey, and doing Turkey and a Spiral Ham.

Randy (NYC)

Buzz, Quentin in Green Bay is very angry. Alot of "!" and virtual yelling. He might need some time to cool off.

Carl (Chicago)

There goes the mouth that roared. Awesomesauce.

Ryan (San Diego)

He clearly had a lot of things to get off of his chest. What does he get out of telling people he wore a wig, did drugs and hated tennis?

Buzzmaster

  (10:28 AM)

A clear conscience.

Ben (Tempe, AZ)

No more Agassi talk. That is all they talked about yesterday on JRIB.

Marc (Charlotte)

Buzz, didn't A-Rod do the same thing and get railed for it? Albeit A-Rod was on steroids.

Buzzmaster

  (10:29 AM)

The small difference was that he got outed first.

Andre Agassi (Coming Clean)

It all started at this party in Clinton, KY...

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

And A-Rod only confessed when people starting finding about his little "secret."

Nate (Madison)

No way that is really Steve because it's not 2am. It'd be like 5:30.

Fake Steve (NJ)

Honey, just wait, I've gotta post something in the ONB for tomorrows MB!

Robbi (Clinton, Ky)

When I was a kid, it was a big deal after t-day dinner to go look at the christmas lights. That's when they turned them on. Now, they are on last weekend!

Mick (England)

It's Good-bye Ruby Tuesday, mate.

JB (TX)

I'll tell you what he gets: $5 million from the publisher.

Sean (Philly)

Maybe Agassi is going through a 12 step program, or just wants to be able to look his kids in the face when he tells them not to lie.

Johnstone (Wicker Park)

A-Rod got called out, Agassi admitted doing something that he didn't get publicly called out on. Huge difference.

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

Wait . . . Steve is married???

Rich Rod (Ann Arbor)

People who turn on Christmas Lights before Thanksgiving need to get lives.

Matt (IN)

That has to be a fake Steve. It's about 530 am in Hawaii

Buzzmaster

  (10:30 AM)

Yes, it was fake Steve, but it was in the ONB, so who knows when it was sent in.

Neal (Philly)

I wonder if Steve's wife will make his lunches like Tom's wife makes his.

Robbi (Clinton, Ky)

He is on his honeymoon right?

tom* (parkville, md)

Yeah, it's not like Andre had another motive, like selling more books or something.

Neal (Philly)

People who lose to Illinois and Purdue in the same season need to learn how to coach.

Marc (Charlotte)

Man, I bet "Time in Hawaii" is the top Google search right now.

tom* (parkville, md)

There are two houses in my neighborhood that had Christmas lights up and on before Halloween.

Buzzmaster

  (10:32 AM)

The only defense I can give is that if you're going to spend all that time putting them up and all, you might as well have some time to enjoy it.

Quentin (Green Bay)

I don't need time to cool off, Randy. I'm naturally an overaggressive person.

Robbi (Clinton, Ky)

Crap, I wish Tom's wife would make my lunches!

rick (Rdg. Pa.)

The coach won the first 6 games in Denver .The quarterback is gonna lose the next 6 ..????(Kyle Orton)????

Nate (Madison)

IV of caffeine needed right here....on the double.

Sean (Philly)

If I were to ever put up Christmas Lights, they would never come down, they would just be unplugged.

Retailers (Everywhere)

You don't have much time! Get out there and shop! Pleeeeease??

Buzzmaster

  (10:33 AM)

Tell me, what's the point of wearing a tie if you're going to wear it loose all day long? I can see loosening it as the day goes along, but what's the point of putting it on and keeping it loose from the start?

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

I'm not used to Christmas lights yet. I saw a house decked out Griswold-style on my commute home last night and nearly veered into a tree.

Ryan (San Diego)

Just because you dont turn on the lights doesn't mean they disappear from view

tom* (parkville, md)

Tom could probably make more money selling his wife's leftovers than he makes as a lawyer.

Quentin (Green Bay)

Hey give the Broncos some credit, some people didn't think they'd win 6 games all year.

Ben (NC)

Christmas is in the heart. So who cares if you put them up a little early. Sharing is a good thing.

Nate (Madison)

I think I'm getting a Christmas tree this year....whether the roommate wants one or not. Will have to go with a real one because I don't want to drop all the money on a fake one.

Scott (Kenosha via Brewtown)

I'm back! Appointment over, missed the ONB, and I'm ready to chat.

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

I do that with my ties from time to time, Buzz. I'm required to wear them Monday through Thursday, but they can't make me keep them tight every single day.

Quentin (Green Bay)

The doctor said if I grow to over 5 feet tall the agressiveness might pass.

Ryan (San Diego)

A loose tie says, I'll adhere to your dress code but I'm not happy about it and I show it by not correctly wearing my tie

Buzzmaster

  (10:35 AM)

As well as looking slightly slobish.

Johnstone (Wicker Park)

Nate, you live in Wisconsin... Go lumberjack on one.

tom* (parkville, md)

Wearing a loose tie is a statement. Sadly, the statement is in a language I do not communicate in.

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

Nate: I hope you like picking pine needles out of EVERYTHING.

Steve (Dallas, TX)

I wear a tie to work everyday. We have to wear them in case a client comes in to the office. Most us us have them loosened unless a client is in the office.

Zack (Louisville, KY)

At least he doesn't have his collar popped, Buzz.

Josh (Lincoln, NE)

So it's passive-aggressive nonconformity?

Neal (Philly)

I love not having a dress code.

Matt (Portland, ME)

I hate wearing ties.

Scott (Kenosha via Brewtown)

Ryan, wear a bow tie, then you can still pop your collar.

Ben (NC)

Don't spill the IV Nate. Stephanie is probably watching,

Vicki (Indiana)

popped collars look stupid

tom* (parkville, md)

I wear a tie to work. It give me the illusion of authority.

Eric (Chicago)

Isiah Thomas lost in his collegiate coaching debut...anyone else think he'd have success coaching somewhere...I didn't!

Sean (Philly)

How loose is loose? Just slightly loose isn't that bad, but if there is a sizable gap it makes no sense.

Buzzmaster

  (10:37 AM)

I saw someone this morning that had his top button unbuttoned, tie knot not fully tight and the tie loose enough to see the second button on his shirt. What's the point?

The Suits (Bristol)

The guy shows up wearing suspenders every day because it's the only way he can keep his pants up, yet he's admonishing people for being slobs? Ridiculous.

Sean (Philly)

tom* be careful not to dip your tie in the fryer when pulling the fries out...

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

When I loosen my tie, it's only slightly loose . . . just loose enough to unbutton my collar button and not have a gap showing.

Buzzmaster

  (10:38 AM)

Yeah, that's not what I saw around earlier.

stephanie (cincy)

In all fairness to Isiah Thomas, they lost to NC.

Robbi (Clinton, Ky)

Gee, I missed the ONB, Good deal.

Marc (Charlotte)

Eric, did you really think he was going to win that game? Lay off the crazysauce.

The Suits (Bristol)

Buzz, we're looking over holiday bonuses here and it looks like you owe us again this year. Tough luck, slacker.

Vicki (Indiana)

lol love the poll question that's under the chat window. "Should the Buccaneers keep wearing their orange throwback uniforms?"

Scott (Kenosha via Brewtown)

I wear a tie every day at work. I try to wear novelty ties for every holiday to break up the monotony of it.

Larry King (NY)

There is nothing wrong with suspenders.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

I wore a tie to the wedding this weekend. Had the top button fastened until the reception, then undid the top button, but kept the tie pretty snug. Gave just a little bit of extra room that was much needed. Felt like I was choking.

Eric (Chicago)

No, I knew they weren't going to win...just hope they now go 0-fer the season!

Steve (Dallas, TX)

I agree buzz, that is slobish. Most of loosen by unbuttoning th etop button and only slightly loosen the knot. You should not be able to see the second button of his shirt.

Nate (Madison)

When I go to weddings the tie usually stays put until about 9pm when the reception is kicking in full gear and then the top button usually gets done with me slightly loosening the tie. It's kind of like that "i'm ready to party" look.......or something.

Buzzmaster

  (10:39 AM)

I always watch the groom. Once he loses the jacket and loosens the tie, it's game on. And usually it's quite early at the reception.

Nate (Madison)

Apparently another thing I have in common with Clinton....he should be scared.

Ed Hochuli (Chat Ref)

Vicki, we don't allow "lol" around here. That's 5 yards and it remains 2nd down.

Quentin (Green Bay)

I hate ties. Never wear them unless I absolutely have to.

Sean (Philly)

If I had to wear a tie, I would buy a bunch of Bolo Ties to break up the monotony.

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

At wedding receptions, I used to wear my tie around my head rambo-style. Then I turned 22.

Robbi (Clinton, Ky)

Suspenders...shish... why not wear a belt?

Robert (Huntsville, Al)

I went to a wedding this weekend. Was hitting on this girl and then got blocked when her Ex-Husband decides he didn't like the way we were conversing. What level of "Blocking" does that fall under?

Eric (Chicago)

Would rather wear a tux than a suit!

Clinton (Indianapolis)

*looking around nervously for the helmet*

Nate (Madison)

Then, about 10:30 the tie goes around the head, Rambo style.

Johnstone (Wicker Park)

I love Larry Kings glasses. Im fairly sure you can see into the future with those things on.

Randy (NYC)

Where was the "!" Quentin? I did not feel your aggression to not wearing ties.

Neal (Philly)

They don't make belts big enough because, you know, Buzz is fat.

Matt (Portland, ME)

Cartoon character ties are idiotic.

tom* (parkville, md)

I don't mind ties, but I hate sport coats. I'm never comfortable in them.

JB (TX)

Bolo ties? Is it 1990 again?

Matt (IN)

Who in the hell would go to a wedding where their ex spouse was there?

Robbi (Clinton, Ky)

Ties around the head at weddings, the same guy that wears a lampshade at parties.

Scott (Kenosha via Brewtown)

Remember in the show Miami Vice, when Don Johnson wore a tie with a t-shirt and a sports jacket? Thank goodness that never caught on.

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

The only novelty ties I wear are for the opening days for the Lions and Tigers, and the day before I leave for Christmas vacation.

Sean (Philly)

Exactly JB...and I am from Philly, Bolo ties were never in. I would just be that guy.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

There may be other things I'm not thinking of off the top of my head, but about the only events I wear a tie for are weddings, funerals, and job interviews.

Buzzmaster

  (10:43 AM)

And at your age, it's more funerals than weddings these days.

Nate (Madison)

Scott, thank god 99% of the things from the 80's didn't catch on.

Josh (Lincoln, NE)

How does the MB always end up back on weddings?

Buzzmaster

  (10:44 AM)

We're a very amorous group.

Nate (Madison)

Clinton invented the first tie. It was made out of mammoth fur.

Neal (Philly)

Thankfully I'm too young to remember the 80s.

stephanie (cincy)

My ex-husband couldn't block me from going to the bathroom at a wedding. Sounds like those two still have issues

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Well played, Buzzard. Well played.

Vicki (Indiana)

I haven't been to a wedding in a while. Lately friends and family members are eloping.

Neal (Philly)

Another friend of mine is getting married in Florida this weekend. Again, I am not invited.

Robert (Huntsville, Al)

My explanation for anything strange that happened in the 80's... "The drugs were good..."

tom* (parkville, md)

Robert (Huntsville), meet Andre Agasi.

Robbi (Clinton, Ky)

How do you not get invited to a "friends " wedding?

Scott (Kenosha via Brewtown)

I haven't been to wedding in years. All my friends have been married for some time and our kids are stil at least 10 years awaty from the event themselves.

Buzzmaster

  (10:47 AM)

Or so you hope.

Ryan (San Diego)

stephanie, I'm sure you're a lot more intimidating with a knife in your hands

Josh (Lincoln, NE)

obligatory that's because he's afraid to get stabbed.

Ben (NC)

I only wear ties to weddings if the reception has an open bar*

Jim Leonard (New York)

I love the syrup

Tommie (Quincy, MA)

Can't believe Tek isn't going to be back with the Sawx.

Buzzmaster

  (10:48 AM)

Please tell me you just forgot the sarcasm coding on that. Tek killed the Sox yesterday. The other teams might as well have been paying his contract.

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

Can't believe Tommie thinks anyone here cares about that.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

There are still a couple holdouts amongst my group of college friends, but most of them are married. One already has a kid, and a couple others have ones on the way.

Robbi (Clinton, Ky)

And Robert and Andre did not meet at a party in Clinton.

Nomar G (Parts Unknown)

I can't believe half the things the Sox do.

Sean (Philly)

Who says Tek won't be back? Did he turn down his 3 Million dollar player option? I know the team turned down his 5 million dollar team option.

Greg (Ellicott City)

When did you go back to college, Clinton?

rick (Rdg. Pa.)

The wife just came back with Call of Duty...OoooRaaa!!!!

Quentin (Green Bay)

Ditto that Neal. The 80s was apparently a very "interesting" time. Ask Clinton about it. He'll start rambling on about the 1880s.

Johnstone (Wicker Park)

The 80's can be summed up quite quickly: Steve Gutenburg, Michael J Fox, Super Bowl Shuffle, and ALF.

Vicki's Friends anf Family (Indiana)

Lets elope so we dont have to invite Vicki.

JB (TX)

I can't believe anyone cares about baseball in the middle of football season...and in the middle of this riveting discussion on ties and marriage.

Robert (Huntsville, Al)

Number Five....is...ALIVE!!!!

Zack (Louisville, KY)

I need Lunch ideas.

Wake (Boston)

Yeh but I got a two year deal.

Matt (Portland, ME)

At least Alf was good.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Lunch: Sandwich, chips, and a soda.

Sean (Philly)

When I get married, I am skipping the whole ceremony thing, and just having a big party.

Steve (Dallas, TX)

Don't forget the 80s had Transformers, GI Joe, Voltron and the Ninja Turtles for those of us in elementary school in the 80s.

Nate (Madison)

Doe, Ray.......Egon

Al Bundy (TV)

Ties and marriage...Ties and marriage...go together like a horse and carriage...

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

Lunch: Random flavor of Lean Cuisine and random flavor of yogurt. We polished off the entire meal of tasty grilled cheeses made by my wife at dinner last night.

Brian (Madison, WI)

I'm at the age where half my friends seemed in a hurry to grow up, get old, and get married and the other half did everything they could to not grow up, get old, and get married.

Vicki (Indiana)

I was big into She-Ra in the 80's

Matt (Portland, ME)

The 80's also had Press Your Luck, the best game show ever.

Buzzmaster

  (10:52 AM)

No wammies!

Josh (Lincoln, NE)

I am in absolutely no hurry to get married.

Kevin (OH)

My work is having a bake sale in 10 minutes...

Neal (Philly)

Lunch: eating healthy to make up for eating all morning

Steve (Dallas, TX)

Lunch: Taco Bueno Beef Muchachos and a DP.

Matt (Portland, ME)

Lunch: Steak sandwich and a soda

Nate (Madison)

What does random flavor taste like? I'm guessing chicken.

Brian (Madison, WI)

Please don't get Nate started on Ghostbusters. He has an unhealthy obsession.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Never cared for GI Joe or Transformers or Voltron, but was a big fan of the Ninja Turtles.

Zack (Louisville, KY)

Why is it so hot in my building?

Robbi (Clinton, Ky)

Lunch: Grilled burger, unsweet tea.

Marc (Charlotte)

Lunch: Probably going $5 footlong.

Vicki (Indiana)

Lunch: undecided

Nate (Madison)

I think you can guess what category I'm in, in regards to Brian's friends.

Buzzmaster

  (10:54 AM)

Actually, we're not sure. He didn't mention his group of friends who strike out with mail-order brides.

Charlie (Philadelphia)

Lunch: Milk Steak w/ a side of jelly beans

Nate (Madison)

11am CT meeting cancelled...WOOOOOOOOO (followed by a Ric Flair strut)

Johnstone (Wicker Park)

Lunch: 3 miles

Ron (Va)

See if I got this right. Tek is varitek. wake is wakefield. I guess if Johnny Damon was on the team yet he would be dam

Nate (Madison)

Well played sir, well played.

Kevin (OH)

Charlie...loved that episode

JB (TX)

Lunch: Something quick, gotta run some errands before I head out of town Thursday. Anyway, best show of the 80s: Yo! MTV Raps.

Johnstone (Wicker Park)

I miss Neanderthal Damon.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

Not in a hurry to get married either, cause you know, I could die at any minute.

Quentin (Green Bay)

Lunch: Culver's

Neal (Philly)

Have a good day everyone! See you Thursday.

Sean (Philly)

I had no idea Nate was Married...***

Robbi (Clinton, Ky)

Everyone have a good Tuesday. Bye y'all.

Matt (IN)

Have a good day everyone. Tomorrow I will try to bring my C+ game.

Marc (Charlotte)

Really, No Anna Nicole Smith post in regards to Clinton being old and getting married. People in the MB must be maturing.

Dennis (Boston)

Happy Birthday Marines!!!!! 234th and counting

Josh (Lincoln, NE)

Adios everyone.

Dean (Vermont)

The 80s talk has me leaning towards McNuggets for lunch. Yes, people - there used to be a McDonalds WITHOUT McNuggets..... thank goodness for the 80s.

Nate (Madison)

Speaking of Ghostbusters, the Bobby Brown song from Ghostbusters II just came on. Today is my day. I'm going to hold Brian scoreless during the lunch our and possibly drop a double double on him

Brian (Madison, WI)

Semper Fi

Matt (Portland, ME)

Have a good day everybody.

Clinton (Indianapolis)

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

Johnstone (Wicker Park)

Alright Buzz, have a good day and remember the courtesy flush

Buzzmaster

  (10:59 AM)

All right folks. We're done here. Thanks for stopping by. We had a good time today. Until tomorrow, stay classy SportsNation!

Nate (Madison)

I see Brian as more of a Navy type of guy.

Quentin (Green Bay)

The Marines are almost as old as Clinton?!?

Brian (Madison, WI)

I'll deal with being held scoreless as long as I get another block on Nate.

Tom (West Bloomfield, MI)

Bye, buzz!
