and some football observations
posted Sunday, October 02 2011
so, me and jose decided to go to the double tree for our, i mean my starbucks this morning. it's the kind of day i like, gray, in the 50's and a major wind coming off the lake. one other thing that makes it a cool day is that it's game day downtown. the game day factor was the deciding factor that we went on that walk today. not so much the game and the people (more on that stuff in a minute), it's all the merch stands set up, and i can always use some more browns gear. what i'm finding is the choices are becoming bad to worse every time i look. first off, all the orange jerseys that are being sold. look, the browns don't even wear orange jerseys, they gave it a shot on and off for two seasons and stopped, you know why? because they looked stupid, like the people who are buying them. it's like this giant orange beacon that says "hey look at me, i'm stupid". and on top of looking stupid you also look like those orange construction barrels.
ok, the other gear thing, there are more and more shirts that aren't so much pro browns, but more slams on other teams. yep, when your team sucks put the focus on how much you don't like the other guy, and why don't you like the other guy? is it because he's better? IDK. then the shirt i saw today, "brown up". brown up? what is that? how did sarah palin become involved with the NFL. well, is it because of how stupid the NFL and average fan has become? i mean come on, i've been watching every sunday and iDK, have the
beer commercials become dumber to appeal to dumb america?, or have i only now become aware that they've been that dumb for years. and the brown up....mindless, like the average tea party moron. come on...brown up?...i mean orange up and beer up, dude....and that reminds me why i don't actually attend games (don't get me wrong, i watch every week), as me and jose are walking through the crowds this morning these two guys clip me in my shoulder and almost step on jose, and it was obvious they saw him. well, you can fuck with me (within reason), but don't fuck with my dog. i held my tongue and watching them kind of giggle i say .."dude" like an invitation to high five dude, and giggle back. i know not a big slam, but good enough and you had to have been there...ok, kind of lame. anyway, that kind of little thing from palin loving, browning up, beer swillers would have me in a fight before i got into browns stadium.
here's a shirt i like, but can't find....
oh, did you hear it's deer season? well a very good friend of mind decided to take up arms and blow away some bambies. i ask why and she says for the meat. um, that's why god made grocery stores. population control? why yes, the population that needs to be controlled is the people who can't help themselves but
encroach on the deers habitat. brown up, lock and load, dude.
one last thing, pittsburgh sucks.
