What the Hell Is Wrong With You People?

Sure, it's been a week since my last post, but for Christ’s sakes, I got things to do! Enough already with your postal mail and telegraphs and such, can't you bitch virtually like the rest of America?

Ok, so it's getting close to the annual guys only trip. Each year we visit different ballparks around the country and revert to the basic idiots we were in school. At times we are even polite enough to use silverware.

This year's trip is to Cleveland. Yep, lookout Las Vegas -- what happens in Cleve Town stays in Cleve Town, or something like that. I am pretty sure this is the year I get so wild that my undecended testicle makes like a giant apple in NY and drops!

To add to the festivities, I am calling on my loyal readers to help me name drinks/sandwiches after famous Cleveland athletes. In turn, our group will do our best to order as many of the items that make it onto the list. We will furnish photos and reviews of the food/drink items.

To help you out, here are a couple that I came up with.

The Bernie Kosar:
Hot pastrami, topped with melted provolone, cole slaw and Russian dressing served on rye..Side order of hummus

The Jeff Garcia:
Equal parts pineapple & orange juice
1 jigger tripplesec
1 dead hamster stuffed in an olive

The Craig Ehlo
Any item that can be torched or lit on fire, much in the way his airness lit up this great Caucasian warrior.

The Andre Thornton
Best known for going 14 days without a bowel movement. Between double headers, Andre got hold of 4 double white castle hamburgers with cheese. He proceeded to dunk his burgers in "orange drink or Gatorade...or something like that." In the third inning of the second game, Andre hit a double to the wall. After rounding second, Andre sheepishly waived for time, requested a pinch runner and then ran to the locker room to use the lavatory.

The Mike Pruitt
Shot of Dewers and shot of Cuervo dumped in a glass of beer (similar to boilermaker).

The Kellen Winslow
Diet Coke
1/2 shot of Jack
broken straw
