Let’s Get Weird: June 2
It’s already Friday after a short week, summer is here (officially?), and alcohol is readily available in the United States of America, so let’s get weird.
Lots of talk last week about a TFM affiliated golf tournament, for the readers/commenters. I even got two very long emails from one of you who has volunteered to take point on setting it all up. If you’re interested, let us know in the comments. If there’s enough interest, I’ll begin some preliminary discussions with the team to see if we can make it happen. Maybe get some sponsors involved and discuss charity stuff and all that.
Sign up for our newsletter, TFM Daily Minutes. It’s a perfect snapshot of the prior day’s content. It includes a couple quick summaries of the day’s news stories, Babe of the Day, the best pictures and videos from our Instagram feed, and links to our podcasts. Some throwback shit, too.
What are we getting into this weekend?
Anyone got the Warriors pulling a full sweep? 16-0 in the playoffs has never been done if I’m not mistaken, would certainly be impressive
8 years ago at 3:22 pmYeah but it’s basketball so who cares
8 years ago at 3:37 pmI hear the pros sometimes shoot from inside the 3-point line.
8 years ago at 3:44 pmBullshit
8 years ago at 8:34 pmBetter looking First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy or MelaniaTrump?
8 years ago at 3:23 pmMelina for sure. She has that “I’ll let you fuck me but I’m gonna slip a finger in your ass at some point” look
8 years ago at 3:36 pmI feel like Melania doesn’t even care much for sex. She has probably never been with a man for sexual reasons. Sex is not a fun thing to do but a tool to get where she wants to go or get the things she wants.
8 years ago at 5:55 pmShe just zones out and goes through the motions.
Jackie by far
8 years ago at 3:38 pmBarbara Bush
8 years ago at 3:52 pmI move for a new rank for these super trolls that seem to get off on being gluttons for punishment. Something like Sleeper referencing that they seemed ok during rush but ended up being a huge mistake.
But then we as a community start keeping their comments more neutral like 0 instead of giving laps so they can’t reach that new tier.
8 years ago at 11:18 amI really want to make a joke about Melania giving her husband head in a car and Jackie’s husband giving her his head in a car but I have better taste than that.
8 years ago at 3:48 pmHillary is a bitch.
8 years ago at 3:56 pmJackie
8 years ago at 5:01 pmNeed that Indiana State Larry Bird jersey
8 years ago at 3:26 pmLooking for recommendations on good duck hunting shotguns. $1,000 is my max. Anyone have any that they like?
8 years ago at 3:29 pmAlso I’m down for the golf tourney
8 years ago at 3:30 pmJust get the most expensive gun for $995 if you have a max
8 years ago at 3:37 pmI’ve got a Browning 12 gauge pump. Paid about $600 for it as best as I can remember. It’s always been accurate and it doesn’t kick too bad. I’ve taken down my share of ducks with it.
8 years ago at 3:42 pmI assume you bought it used?
8 years ago at 3:51 pmYeah, picked it up used from a local shop. In near mint condition when I got it though.
8 years ago at 3:53 pmAwesome. I’ll check out some stores around where I live. Thanks man.
8 years ago at 3:56 pmGlad to help out
8 years ago at 6:07 pmI have a benelli supernova pump. Bought it new for $550. Been reliable for many years and Im a big fan of going pump over semi.
8 years ago at 4:01 pmHow’s the kick on it?
8 years ago at 4:08 pmI’ve got a Beretta A300 12 gauge semi auto and I highly recommend it. I’ve put who knows how many rounds through it and it’s never once misfired or anything. Also super easy to strip and reassemble.
8 years ago at 4:11 pmBeretta al391. I had a Benelli super black eagle II before and I absolutely love the beretta more. Its a tank and has never misfired when muddy, but still handles dove loads perfectly.
8 years ago at 4:52 pmGo Mossburg, quality gun that won’t break the bank
8 years ago at 5:06 pmBenelli Supernova. Has ComforTech, which is a recoil reduction system. This can be taken completely apart in under a minute, which makes cleaning a breeze. Also has the enlarged trigger guard so if you hunt cold weather, you can shoot with gloves on. It’s been my go to for around 12 years now, and has only had one problem. The carrier wouldn’t drop when I racked another one, making it so the shell in the mag would drop out of the bottom. Sent it into Benelli, they send me a brand new trigger housing, no questions asked.
8 years ago at 9:17 amWho here plays xbox?
8 years ago at 3:37 pmNo we just watch fucking paint dry
8 years ago at 4:46 pmThat activity is a little over my head, way too complex. I prefer watching grass grow, much simpler
8 years ago at 3:03 amWhen was the last time one of your teams won a title? As a Mets Jets and Knicks fan, it’s been since the ’86 Mets for me, and if you throw in college teams, it’s been since Notre Dame in ’88. I’m asking because I’m wondering if I’ve got it as bad as I think I do, or if there are a lot of cities that have similar title droughts.
8 years ago at 3:43 pmThe last time the Braves won a World Series was ’95. So it’s been in my lifetime but I’d sure like to see them get another one.
8 years ago at 3:46 pmDid you just pick the worst team in every sport and go with it?
8 years ago at 3:48 pmI think It’s gotta punishment for some shit I did in a past life
8 years ago at 4:22 pmAs a Minnesotan, I have been thirsty for titles for quite some time. The Twins won the World Series in ’87 and ’91, but no other Minnesota team has ever won a championship. My teams make me drink a lot.
8 years ago at 4:21 pmRead that as “thirsty for titties” and I was like “yeah, now that you mention it, me too!”
8 years ago at 5:59 pm’79 for the Sonics. RIP
8 years ago at 5:36 pm2011 for the Cardinals and Mavericks, 95 for the Cowboys, N/A for the Blues
8 years ago at 6:27 pmAs a Cleveland fan, we as a city hadn’t won a title for 52 years (that’s 1964 for the idiots who can’t count), but the Cavaliers ended that last year. The Indians haven’t won a World Series since 1948, the current longest drought in baseball. The Browns haven’t won a title since 1964, before the Super Bowl even existed. Tough times in Cleveland…
8 years ago at 1:34 amFuck the Cubs
8 years ago at 1:35 amAs a die hockey fan first, most importantly my Ducks took home the cup in ’07. Angels had a world series in ’02. Lakers have 5 in my lifetime. Auburn won in 10. But those goddamn Raiders… I suppose I got it pretty good. Not better than a Bostonian who went to Bama but I really can’t complain.
8 years ago at 3:02 amFalcons and Orlando magic fan so never for those but I’m still a Florida fan a little bit so I got that going for me at least
8 years ago at 11:11 amAs a kid, I would go for whatever team was the most exciting at the time. So for me, it’s Broncos and Red Sox. Broncos because of Jake the Snake (they did him dirty for that bum Cutler). And Red Sox because 2004 was a good year. That being said, I’ve got no complaints recently. Lots of W’s in the column.
8 years ago at 8:03 pmDamn man I got obese. Maybe I should lay off them pills and greasy food?
8 years ago at 3:51 pmLay off commenting
8 years ago at 3:52 pmI’m sorry man, but I’m pretty sure you died on the toilet in 77. Please do the same
8 years ago at 3:05 amFavorite species of shark and why (you won’t hurt my feelings). Go.
8 years ago at 4:05 pmGreat White because they seem like the most badass.
8 years ago at 4:16 pmHammerhead is underrated
8 years ago at 4:31 pmMako also underrated just cuz they look the coolest imo
8 years ago at 6:11 pmTiger, they literally eat trash but are still considered apex predators.
8 years ago at 4:42 pmWhale sharks cuz they’re so chill. I feel like they would be the stoners of the shark world
8 years ago at 4:47 pmShortfin mako. Fast as fuck and occasionally jump into boats. Fun to see.
8 years ago at 6:22 pmProbably to ask where the party is at. I bet that’s what SharkWeek is.
8 years ago at 6:34 pmGreg Norman
8 years ago at 8:16 pmJerry Tarkanian
8 years ago at 6:47 amBull shark, highest testosterone levels of anything on earth, minus Barry bonds in the early 2000s
8 years ago at 2:00 amBull Shark for sure. They go for fear. You hear some girl in the water freak out like “Something just touched my leg!” Seconds later? Boom. Bloodbath.
8 years ago at 7:58 pmI did not have sexual relations with that woman.
8 years ago at 4:09 pmFucking Christ not another bs account
8 years ago at 4:46 pmNot having sexual relations with that woman. NF
8 years ago at 5:23 pmFree train rides to downtown Nashville where there’s a free Alan Jackson concert on Broadway outside of a Preds watch party. Gonna be hype.
8 years ago at 4:43 pmSounds gay as fuck actually
8 years ago at 5:08 pmWell, you are an expert in things that are gay as fuck.
8 years ago at 6:23 pmYou are really still talking shit after you pussied out of our fight? I guess I would expect that from a pussy ass Canadian.
8 years ago at 10:26 pmKeep telling yourself that bud.
8 years ago at 11:28 pmAt least you saved yourself a trip to the hospital
8 years ago at 11:39 pmI’m actually in town now, any bars that are a must?
8 years ago at 5:55 pmThe Gold Rush. Best bar in Nashville. Cheap beer and pretty good food as well.
8 years ago at 5:58 pmThank you sir!
