Random Thoughts, the Sequel

I have never been so exhausted by midnight every night in one week. This week, Doc ended up saying every night, "You're passing out on me already?"

 

alley, it's nothing significant but he just came off as a dick. here's what i saw ( i was in that section):

a couple of kids were being way too obnoxious screaming at the players sitting in the bullpen. they were maybe 10 or 11. they were fiddling with one of those bungee cords that was attached to the bleachers. it's the type of thingie athletes use to stretch out. obviously the kids shouldn't have been playing with it and just as obviously the trainer or players shouldn't have left it where fans could get at it. so rauch walked over and untied it between innings. as he did so, he completely ignored these two kids, who although they had been obnoxious punks, were silenced into awe that a real, live player was suddenly standing six inches from them. i just think he could've said hello or responded to them when they started peppering him with questions.

it's spring training. they are children. he's jon rauch. he could give the kids a friendly tap on the shoulder or even just acknowledged their existence.

 

Admit it. You were one of those kids.

 

i actually think that was hoffa, not spup.

 

;D

 

That made me laugh out loud.

 

I heard something at work today: Andre the Giant drank 16 bottles of wine before one of his matches with Hulk Hogan.

 

Legend (as told by Dave Meltzer) is he once drank 100 beers in a sitting and didn't get drunk.

And to tie this in with the, um, other topic discussed in this thread -- he was in a match in Mexico, a tag match against Badnews Allen and someone else. At the time his finisher was what we call the Earthquake splash (sit-down splash). At the moment his butt his Allen's chest, he lost control of his bowels. And by that point in his career, he couldn't get up off the mat without help.

Every name in the previous paragraph is dead.

 

My wife just asked me what I wanted for graduation. My response, of course, was "two chicks at the same time."

Any suggestions?

 

Uhm, three chicks at the same time? And a video camera?

 

I have no desire to go to work today. I should have taken the entire week off for the Vegas gathering.

 

Now, after the week from Hell, I get called in on my day off to lay out the entire section again. FUCK!
