Pretty Place...Crappy Energy!

So Hank and I went to St. Louis this past weekend. The Cardinals were playing the Atlanta Braves. We were invited along with my parents to come to the game from a family friend who plays for Atlanta. He is originally from Hawaii and his dad and my dad were best friends showing up so he feels like he gets to see family when my dad can make it to the game. Sorry for the long explanation but I wanted to explain that we were only watching the cardinals game because:
1~ We were invited by the BRAVES
2~ The tickets were free
3~ Rooting for the Braves to win could only help the Cubs!

Unfortunately the Cardinals won...BOO HOO!

BTW ---The Cubs are still in 1st...I know it's not September yet!
Okay so we go to the game and we have amazing seats! The new Busch Stadium is gorgeous!!! It has soft cushy seats ...tons of amenities...it really is a great stadium.

BUT...and this is a big BUT...

The fans of the St. Louis Cardinals have no energy when they are cheering on their team.

Now they are the reigning World Champion's and no one can seem to muster enough energy to stand up and cheer let alone even have enough energy to put 2 hands together to clap.
I realize it could be because they are too busy eating their funnel cake or balancing they fruffy drink and I understand with the cushy seats you might not want to get your over indulged ass out of it to show a little support for your team. Here is a team who at 1 point was 8 plus games out and then clawed their way up to close to 1st and you can't even help them win with a bit of crowd energy.
Let's just say in some far off fantasy world the Cubs win the world series...It could happen...I would feel as if I shared in the trophy because my energy and loyalty helped them win.
The St. Louis Cardinals organization own the 2006 World Series trophy. I don't feel they need to give any props or share it with their fans because they don't deserve it!

I am soooo happy I married a Cubs fan and not a Cardinals fan!

PLAY BALL!!!


More Movies!!!

Okay so let me add to the movies...
We went and saw Superbad the other night...
It was pretty funny and very crude...I wouldn't even tell my parents to go see it...
Like Knocked Up...it definitely goes for the sick humor but this one goes really dirty...
Y'know how they will release R movies on DVD with an unrated version...I would be scarred to know what this movie would do to be UnRated. I shudder to think! Still if you are not weak of heart I highly recommend it! I find it funny to think that People magazine gave this movie 4 stars. I can just imagine the highly prude soccer mother of 4 who drives a macked out mini-van having the nanny watch the kids so her and her husband dressed in dockers and a salmon colored polo fresh from the golf course can have a date night at TGI Fridays and the movies. They might go blind from this movie! Oh I would love to see that.

I can see the actor who plays Fogel...aka "MCLOVIN" becoming the geek success and having his won show soon! He pretty much steals the show.

Oh also for all you teenagers out there...Please don't ever use laundry soap containers to steal beer...That can not be healthy! Suds and all!

Chowder!

Movies I have seen

No Reservations...found it really boring and I thought nothing really happened in it!

Hairspray...What fun and with a cameo from John Waters and Rikki Lake! Although John Travolta was just a bit off!

Now I Pronounce you Chuck and Larry... I really enjoyed it...so not PC but I found myself laughing...Rob Schneider steals the show and a fun little cameo at the end is pretty hysterical!

I'll let you know when I see any others!

Sorry not a Harry Potter fan so I can not comment on the movie as I didn't see it!

Cubs Cubs Cubs

okay so I realize for like 17 hours we were in 1st place...I didn't think we would stay in it for very long but Hey as a cubs fan you take what ever you can get.
I will say it is was very strange to cheer for the Cardinals to win when they were playing the Brewers! I know some think that is being a fair weather fan but i actually think you would be a stupid fan if you didn't look at each game and figure out what is going to help your team and go for it!
BTW...I am soo happy to see Matt Murton back he is one of my favorite players and I am so glad he was brought back up! Plus he won the winning run the other day! Go RED!

Go Cubs Go...Hey Chicago what y say...Cubs are going to win today!

Oh Another side note...I really don't want Glavin to win his 300th game against the Cubs...especially at home! Guess we will see tomorrow!

New Drinking Game!

Okay so I realize not everyone is watching Big Brother 8 obsessively like I do but I think there is a whole group of Frat boys out there who, I am sure, have found a new drinking game.
I think everyone has partaken of the Police Roxanne drinking game...Y'know you either have to drink when they sing "Roxanne" or "Put on the Red Light" also there is the Blue Velvet drinking game when you have to take a drink every time F*CK was said in the movie. I don't know if anyone ever made it thru the whole movie before passing out.
So anywho...On Big Brother 8 there is a player named Amber and she is an emotional roller coaster. Now unlike inside the house when the guys drink whenever Jen says the word "I" it is possible the new drinking game is to chug-a-lug whenever Amber cries. It is seriously the whole time she is on TV. She's upset because she was put on the block...cause her friend won HOH...cause the water ran out...cause it's sunny in California...it is ridiculous the girl should get a contract with Kleenex!

The Power is up for grabs!

Where have all the posts gone?

Sorry All... I haven't been posting much lately. Not that I haven't wanted to jot down on so many things but let me just say 3 words...Baby...baby...baby!
