Shaking in my boots...

So I will always hate Nick Saban and will always love John Parker Wilson, but watching that Bama game...made me a little nervous.

That is all.

Only beginning..

We won. And Matthew Stafford looked goooood while winning. I'm glad our third string QB got some playing time...



New Uga!! How adorable (the dog, not Damon Evans or Michael Adams)



Cutest. Mascot. Ever.

Same old, same old

Unfaithful

Jess has already forgotten about her love of Mitt.

New Slang

Ok so Phillip suggested that we make our IM convos in to comic strips and we don't know any artists (if you know anyone who is would be willing, let one of us know), so I decided to use some downtime at work and use Photoshop to show off a little creativity using celebrities as stand ins for the two of us. Enjoy.

Interjection

I just had to post something to break up the Michael Phelps fest that this blog is becoming.



Barry Zito is now modeling for True Religion jeans.

He may suck at baseball, but at least he's still hot.

Two "awwwww" moments for Thursday...

Michael Phelps and his dog, Herman. Like awww.



Tom Brady, Giselle and his son. Like AWWWW MAJOR.

This is what happens when Katy gets post happy. Maybe some Matt Ryan later...

Knowshon likes to run it, run it.

Mid-Week Man Candy

So we had talked about making someone else Man Candy this week, but after two Man Candy casualties (i.e. here and here again) we are not taking any chances...

So here's to you Edward Cullen (NOT Robert Pattinson...because he looks like a bum...unless he's Cedric)
We have to admit that we had our doubts about Twilight but we are both totally sold. And yes, you were slightly douche-y in New Moon, you slightly redeemed yourself in Eclipse and I hope Breaking Dawn is totally awesome. You may be 108 and cold as ice, but you're still smoking to us.

3 Days...

Catch those balls, MoMass

Matty Ice luuuv

4 Days...

Rennie Curran will eff you up.

T-minus 5 days...

Matthew Stafford wants you to celebrate UGA's preseason rankings with a Jager bomb of course.

I'm already having nightmares. Last night, we were down by 3 points with less than 30 seconds to go and Matty S. handed off to Knowshon for the game winning touchdown. I have a feeling this is only the beginning.

From my mother

Phelps Phan

Someone made an inference that this is what I'm like...psssh, hardly.



I would never have a cutout of him sitting Indian style in my living room. It would be this and it would be in my bedroom...

My directorial debut

So I have decided to start using my digital camera to videotape my friends and various other individuals (not criminals taping themselves) singing, dancing, etc. in hopes of launching someone in to YouTube stardom (basically it's just going to be Elliot). Here is the first video, the aforementioned singing along with Kate Nash's "Foundations" at this past Friday's Right Round @ Black Cat in D.C. It's pretty much amazing. Enjoy.



Highlights: You can hear me laugh when he takes the cup, pushes Andrew away and crushes the cup into a mic. And when he points. And does the finger wag. I can smell an Oscar or at least a VMA.

Mid-week Man Candy

It's a double doozie this week, so be prepared. Woo. This was supposed to be man candy last week, but I got side tracked...Michael Phelps is like a shiny object in a toy store, sorry, can't help myself. So after a little delay, here we go.





Here's to you Drew Macias (top) and Colt Morton (bottom), two fabulous players from the San Antonio Missions (aka the Padres minor league team). Drew is the second baseman (my personal pick) and Colt is the catcher (Jess's lovah). We entertained ourselves for hours cat calling our men. We hope they make it to the big leagues so we can root for them (cept Jess hates the Padres, oh well).

Here are a pic of Drew in action, I didn't get any of Colt...go figure.



ffiore957 (11:01:44 PM): did you know that sean kazmar got called up to the padres?
skitchkd (11:01:56 PM): i read that
ffiore957 (11:02:15 PM): where did you read that?
skitchkd (11:02:32 PM): samissions.com
skitchkd (11:02:33 PM): duh

Hail to the victor

I know Jess is going to be angry...but what he did was pretty ridic so I think y'all should watch it. Greatest. Olympian. Ever.



Can't wait til he comes back to Baltimore...

A lil something, something...only in Texas

OK, so since I deviated slightly (not slightly, MAJORLY) in man candy this week (I'm sorry, I just can't help myself), I decided to make it up to my wonderful BFF by posting two totally awesome videos I took this weekend while I was in San Antonio.

First is Ballapeno, the mascot for the San Antonio Missions doing the cha-cha slide.



Side note: Yes, that is me laughing heartily in the beginning and you can see Jess's Missions catch BF in the background.

Here's is the most prized mascot of the Missions, aka the star of the show, Henry the Puffy Taco. For those of you who are unaware, puffy tacos are the delicacy of Texas and is exactly what is sounds like...a taco that is puffy. And yea, the taco is the mascot. This is Henry breakin' it down after he was brutally attacked by a small child (who just happened to be sitting behind us).



Everyone should go visit Jess just to see the awesomenss in person.

Mid-week Man Candy

OK, so Jess and I discussed who we were going to put as man candy while I was in San Antonio...but I have to deviate because...well, I'm in love.



I mean I don't think any words are needed, but damn.

Oh yea and he's sorta good at swimming too.

(Sorry, Jess)

Mid-week Man Candy ... one day late

So I'm sick so cut me some slack. But here is the long awaited man candy. This isn't typical man candy but this is special for my BFF because she's had a rough week. (Which of course will end most awesomely because I am flying to San Antonio tomorrow!!) So this is just for Jess (we all know I don't share her feelings).



Here's to you, Joe Tereshinski (the third). Remember when you were UGA's starter for 1.5 games a few years ago? Remember when you started the Florida game the year DJ went down? Ok, well you may not have been the next coming of Joe Montana, but Jess sure loves you. So here's to you JT3. Wherever you are now.

LOL from Fox Sports

Imagine how the final, frantic conference call between the Dodgers, Pirates and Red Sox went down on Thursday.

Theo Epstein: So are we good?

Ned Colletti: Uh, I dunno, I'm not sure we can shell out for all of Manny's prorated salary.

Epstein: Okay. We'll eat it.

Colletti: How much?

Epstein: The whole thing.

Colletti: That's workable.

Epstein: Neal?

Neal Huntington: We don't want to throw in Grabow.

Epstein: No problem.

Huntington: But you'll still send us Brandon Moss and Craig Hansen?

Epstein: Yep.

Colletti: So, uh, just so we're clear, you're giving up Manny, seven mil cash, an outfield prospect who hit .291 in 103 big league at bats and a 24-year-old who throws 97.

Huntington: And of course the two compensatory picks you'd have gotten had you kept Manny.

Epstein: Uh, yeah.

Colletti: You know I could use a new Range Rover.

Epstein: Done.

Huntington: Man, you must be majorly motivated to get rid of that guy.

Epstein. No, no, we just really, really love Jason Bay. Had our eye on him ever since he hit .247 with a .745 OPS last year.

Or something like that.

Hmmm ..... WE'RE NUMBER ONE!

This is too much excitement for this early in the morning.
