Jimbo's Drinker

QUOTE (dasox24 @ Jan 19, 2009 -> 02:42 AM) Thanks... I know the girl (though I only met her about 2 weeks ago), so getting her info isn't an issue. She just broke up with her boyfriend last weekend, so I'm not sure making any move right now is a great idea. I'm just going to do the whole "hanging out with mutual friends and flirting" thing for a bit. I definitely did not embarrass myself with the girl, which is good. Actually, she's who got me so f'd up. She made me do some jello shots with her that she made, which were essentially pure Everclear, and that's what put me over the top. I could have taken a shot of Everclear and it would have been the same thing I think, lol. But people last night were really surprised I was as drunk as I was b/c no one could tell, which is a trait of mine I love. I would hate to one of those people who you can just tell are drunk the second you see them. Good work pal, just don't play the "friend" card too much, then you come off looking like "that guy". I think you have the right idea, sit back and wait for your chance to prowl. I have the same drinking trait as you, and it is good and bad. Yes, I neve get to the point where I fall down stairs, or come on soxtalk and type a passage that others need Rosetta Stone to translate. However, I act perfectly normal, so people think I am not hammered, all the while I am one foot into blackout zone. This encourages your Rosetta Stone needing friends to continue to buy more alcohol. your story definitely makes me feel old, oh to be back in Lawrence... the stories I could tell you. Peace out bro

I smell 4th place

With the UNC loss, Ill State should be number 1 in the nation. The Indiana State loss is like losing to any ACC or Big East Powerhouse.

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Jan 18, 2009 -> 12:33 PM) Iowa State took 150 students to the ISU-Mizzou game yesterday. Cant tell if that more pathetic for ISU or Mizzou?

Heads, looks like DJ Beshears turned from Cyclone to Jayhawk.

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Jan 18, 2009 -> 03:17 AM) We blewt two speakers tonight. Im a little bit pissed. Soxfan1, you have a girlfriend?

QUOTE (dasox24 @ Jan 18, 2009 -> 01:12 AM) Oh what the f***! I am so pissed right now... So it was one of my best friends' 21st birthdays tonight as well as this very cool, attractive girl tonight. So, they had a joint birthday party. Well, my stupid ass got too drunk to make it to the bars with them (I am not 21, but have a legit fake ID that never gets turned down). I thought I was going to puke for the last 2 hours or so, though I finally feel fine now, but I knew if I had gone out that I would have actually puked, so I couldn't leave this apartment where we pre-gamed. Anyway, this girl (who's birthday it is) and I were definitely hitting it off well tonight. We talked for a little bit (definitely very flirty) and she kept giving me these looks when we'd make eye contact across the room. Never thought I had a chance with her since her dad owns like 10 car dealerships across the southeast and her grandmother married into the Vanderbilt family, so she has more money than anyone could know what to do with... But yeah, I got a buddy to give me a ride home, so I completely blew it on going out to the bars to celebrate with either this girl or my friend, so I really f***ed up on this one. Of course now that I finally don't feel sick anymore (just very drunk), I am a good 15 minute walk from the bars and am in no way driving to get back out that way. f***!!! ahhh, never fear my young warrior. You established eye contact and did not embarass yourself with the girl. If you have a mutual friend, find a way to get her info and make your move. Just cause she is rich does not mean she is not human, she is just as vulnerable and confused as the rest of the masses. I should start a column on this site, Dear Jimbo...haha

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Jan 17, 2009 -> 09:11 PM) I shoulda let dan and bmags and maggsmaggs know I'd be in Columbia today. buying meth?

...and down goes pittsburgh. Wake Forest new number 1 or Duke??

I was not impressed wiht MSU when they played KU or today. in other news, ASU beat UCLA at Pauly KU is now in 2nd place in the Big 12. Young, stupid but still winning.

If Illanoy and MSU played on a neutral court, Illanoy win 8/10 times.

hmmm can Jose play CF?

QUOTE (danman31 @ Jan 17, 2009 -> 02:12 AM) From the look of that typing it sure looks like you had a lot of cups sank against you... I was thinking the exact same thing.

QUOTE (JPN366 @ Jan 16, 2009 -> 08:39 AM) Kyle Long is 20 and only a freshman in college??? Aren't most college freshman 17-18? How many grades did he repeat? Doesn't sound too smart to me. Not a surprise though, he is Howie's son. Maybe he went to Prep school for a year?

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Jan 16, 2009 -> 04:56 PM) Jack Daniels and Patron...stay tuned. Why mix?

QUOTE (Felix @ Jan 16, 2009 -> 05:01 PM) They aren't a sweet 16 team, so no, I won't commit suicide when that happens. This year wasn't supposed to be our year, it's next year's team that the rest of the Big 10 should watch out for. You just opened Pandora's Box with the Illini fans.

QUOTE (santo=dorf @ Jan 16, 2009 -> 05:01 PM) Oh Rockabilly......... Could that be the SOX!>!11! nol

We need to make SLAM more fun like this. Think about all the fun we can have as more "liberal" forum.

QUOTE (Felix @ Jan 16, 2009 -> 09:57 AM) So I woke up this morning and confirmed that the Gopher/Badger game last night indeed wasn't a dream. Honestly, down 10 with four minutes to go, I thought the game was over. Last nights game was the best game I've watched since the Illinois/Arizona game in the 2005 tournament and possibly the best game I've ever seen. The defense was absolutely fantastic down the stretch and Lawrence Westbrook was absolutely insane. Say what you want about the Louisville or Ohio State wins, this was the marquee win of the season. Oh, and we did it with the refs constantly screwing us all night, without DJ in the first half, and without Al Nolen at the end of the second half. Just an absolutely fantastic win. Ill take the KU comeback against Memphs with like 1:47 left in the 2nd and down 9. I hope you don't commit suicide when Minny gets knocked out before the sweet 16 in the tourney.

QUOTE (Brian @ Jan 16, 2009 -> 11:42 AM) ESPN Full Court free preview this week. Have I missed the majority of this? yes

Reinsdorf did make his money in real estate, im just saying.

QUOTE (TheBigHurt @ Jan 15, 2009 -> 09:07 PM) The idea of a rotation possibly with Garcia AND Colon is just laughable. you prefer Richard and Marquez?

Hightower drives me up a wall.

Seth Davis's early winners/losers for RPI. Sorry about the KU description, got it off Phog.net Needless to say, ISU better win the MVC Winners (non-con SOS) Butler (3) Utah (17) Oregon (27) Wisconsin (29) West Virginia (41) Washington (57) Florida State (84) Kansas (59): The Jayhawks have four wins over teams ranked in the top 50 of the RPI, and all of those have a chance to hold up: Washington, Temple, Tennessee and Siena. You also have to give them credit for playing true road games at Arizona and Michigan State, even though they lost both. Their only clunker was a one-point loss to UMass in Kansas City. The bottom line is, this is a tournament team, but should they stumble in the Big 12, the Jayhawks have bought themselves some house money. Losers (non-con SOS) LSU (326) Illinois State (320) NC State (279) Stanford (278) Texas A&M (251) Arkansas (242) Minnesota (233) Alabama (231)

His job is on the line, he goes to any other team its hello bench.
