BEEF

For those of you who dont know, or dont remember, this happened:

Martin Gramatica, in the first quarter of a 0-0 game, hits a 43 yard field goal and celebrates so hard he ends his career, and places himself atop my "Favorite people to hate" list. This is quite the prestigious list. Second place goes to Leon Lett in the Super Bowl (made better by the fact that he is a cowboy, and Don Bebe can run faster than anyone else wearing only flip-flops)

Anyone who knows me well, and lives in milwaukee, knows that I hate Peter Francis Geraci for his Bankruptcy Info Tape commercials. That nabs him the third spot on the list.

A pretty strong podium there, so in honorable mention on my Love to Hate list is the altitude tent that Marquette University purchased a few years back for their basketball program (see previous blog post)

There it is, my top four. I think it goes without saying that its going to be tough to break into that class of.... wait what happened?

DEZ BRYANT SPENT $55,000 ON ONE DINNER WITH HIS TEAMMATES LAST NIGHT???

You couldn't possibly know this because its a blog, but between typing this and the last line, i spontaneously combusted. Thoughts:

1. Did he buy the restaurant too?
2. If he took the entire 53 man roster out, some simple math here.... oh, $1000 a person?! WHAT DO YOU ORDER?! "uh yea, i want the $80 lobster, but can you make it cost $990? And i will have a light beer. Thanks"
3. If you make $55k a year as a pro cyclist, you are doing VERY well for yourself.
4. Whatever.

Number one on the list by a long shot. Peter Francis Geraci? Off the podium. Martin Gramatica? You had a good run. Leon Lett? SECOND most ridiculous Cowboy of all time. Altitude tent? Dez Bryant's tip to the server was equal or more than your entire cost, you are out of your league.

Maybe they will give Dez Bryant superpowers in Madden 2012 like they gave Martin Gramatica:

That is all.

Happy national coffee day, even know its ruined.

  1. We should get together and rant sometime, or we could spend $55,000 on a dinner for the two of us. I'm going to spend my walk home thinking about what that dinner would include.
