BLOGTOBERFEST! YES, IT STILL EXISTS EDITION
Blogtoberfest! Because we haven’t done one in months edition.
Jay Barker’s marrying a country star, and you’re just jealous that he has a hot wife with huge cans. Their marriage promises to be a heart-breaking cycle of domestic bliss/front-porch swangin’ alternating with periods cheatin’, beatin’ raw dealin’, stealin’, lyin’, and cryin’.
Holly and Kanu have the breakdown of our night out in Vegas on Saturday. We deny it all except for the Tylenol Orange Drank, an essential ingredient of any night of frenetic wagering and casino-hopping.
Run! Live wolverines on leashes. Always a great idea. (HT: Brian.)
Percy Harvin, dinged; Carl Moore, slow for fast. Percy Harvin is heeling; Carl Moore is merely a 4.45 guy.
BHGP’s madness rolls on in their brackets. Our money’s on the City Boyz, Inc.
We’re overdue in our congratulations to T. Kyle King on the birth of his son daughter. Congratulations, sir: he should utter his first 750 word sentence sometime in the next two years.

Um, it was a cute future Lady Dawg gymnast Mr. King had. Not a future linebacker to be rolled over by Tim Tebow Jr.

You don’t see an Everton jersey in Vegas too often I’d imagine (dude behind in the Chang beer shirt).

I clicked on the link, and sure enough, Sara Evans is hot. I couldn’t place her songs though, and went to her wikipedia page to learn more about her. That’s where I found this statement, relating to her divorce:
Divorce documents filed in Williamson County, Tennessee by Evans’ estranged husband, Craig Schelske, accuse the singer of having close to a dozen affairs. The list includes singer/songwriter Richard Marx, country star Kenny Chesney, Dancing with the Stars partner Tony Dovolani, and the members of the rock band 3 Doors Down.
Seriously-that’s a diverse group of losers. Marx, Chesney, a dancer, and 3 Doors Down? Who’s next after Barker? The dude that played Urkel? Stephen Garcia? Gerry Dinardo?

O- So you’re saying that Sara Evans IS the sea of purple freedom? It all makes sense now.

#4, I’m with you on some of the others, but not Kenny Chesney. Estimates of his net worth are north of $600 million = not a loser.

Wrong-o. Chesney is a world-class douchebag. He used to come into the bar where I worked back in Knoxville. Dude drinks Malibu and Diet Coke and never tips. Fuck his hobbit face.

between the twitter feed and the holly updates i’ve been getting this mental image of orson during the shenanigans.

Holly, being a douchebag and a loser are quite different. There’s alot of really rich douchebags.

Nope, I’m standing by it. Douchebag, loser, secret lover. He’s all of these things. Peyton could do so much better.

Jay had Sara on his show this morning.
I must say, even though Jay is still me hero, any kissy kissy I love you talk over two sentences should never ever be a part of sports radio ever again…. unless John Madden has a Monday Night memorial service for Brett Favre’s career, because that would be comical gold.

Jay lost a portion of the fan base (ok, me) when he started doing the “roll chevy roll” commercials for Tuscaloosa Chevrolet. I wish them luck but it does sound kind of doomed from the start. He’s got likt 14 kids with his ex-wife and she’s (Evans) bat-shit crazy evidently.
Of and Holly, since I now know that you tended bar. If a drunk, belligerent Alabama fan came into your bar in Knoxville on an Alabama game weekend was rude and hit on you it was absolutely not me. I swear.

Oh, if it had been me, I guarantee you’d remember it, but I have gone so far as faking a seizure to get out of working on Third Saturday. That’s my holy weekend. [catholicism/suffering joke]

Shit, Barker should collect every dime of endorsement money or hot ass he can get. The man is a demigod in this state. I’d be playing the MNC QB card at every chance I got.

Inquiring Minds Want to Know Dept:
Holly: In Vegas, who threw more passes at you, Swindle or Kanu?
(I’m Guessing OS.)

I actually have a creedo where I am always, I repeat always nice to the people that bring me alcohol (that and drive thrus because of my crippling fear of pubs [or worse] in something I am going to consume) regardless of their allegiance. Bar tenders are always my friend.
I think the worst thing I ever did (Knoxville only) was stand up on a stool in O’Charley’s on Cumberland and lead “Sweet Home Alabama” after the victory over Phil’s boys in ‘02. They asked me to get down and surprisingly enough it wasn’t in that “I’m gonna kick you ass voice”; they were pretty cool about it all actually. Of course everything is gravy in the halcyon hours after ending a seven year losing streak.
There’s nothing wrong with cashing in on celebrity and Jay is actually a decent guy. I just can’t get down with the “Roll Chevy Roll” sell out. But hey I’d probably sing “Rocky Top” for the right amount of cash.
On second thought - no, I’m pretty sure that I wouldn’t.

Since you specifically didn’t deny it, I’ll assume that you really did hit the O-Drank. I’ve always thought that was a joke, but now, by god, I’m going to try it.

Yes Sara Evans is hot, but she’s also ummm…. crazy. She’s been all over the newspapers here in Nashville, but Wikipedia may sum it up best:
Divorce documents filed in Williamson County, Tennessee by Evans’ estranged husband, Craig Schelske, accuse the singer of having close to a dozen affairs. The list includes singer/songwriter Richard Marx, country star Kenny Chesney, Dancing with the Stars partner Tony Dovolani, and **he members of the rock band 3 Doors Down.**
There’s more there too.

That part is completely and actually true. It’s not bad.
