Dan McGuinness Pub in Downtown Memphis is making a serious play for the football-watching crowd this fall – and I’m talking American football, not soccer. They are getting the NFL Sunday Ticket package, they’ve bought 6 new HDTVs and I’ve been told they’re buying one more.
Pretty cool… with Sleep Out Louie’s no longer an option for football, McGuinness stands to pick up a fair amount of business from Downtowners. They’ve also added a new bartender on Sundays, a familiar face who may cause the brunch crew to fit an extra bar into Sunday plans.
Speaking of football – this Thursday I’m going to have to do something I thought I’d never do – root for the Dallas Cowboys. They play the Colts this Thursday at 7 (on FOX) and at this point I’ll cheer for anyone who plays the Colts. Maybe Peyton will get taken out with a season-ending injury in the first preseason game. One can only hope.
Happy first day of work to my favorite blogger/MILF. Her daughter starts soccer this month, so my favorite blogger/MILF is now a soccer mom. She already lives in the ‘burbs of East Bumblefuck… she should just go ahead and buy a minivan and go all the way with it. Although, if she took the back seats out of the van and put a mattress back there, that could be kind of cool. Don’t come a-knockin’ if the Dodge Caravan be rockin’!
Also congrats to my friends Otto and Ken on finishing their 200th beers at the Saucer. They’ll be joining me in the Ring of Honor.
All right, time to get some work done… gotta type up an estimate for a new project, spend some time on a WordPress site I’m working on, and upload a bunch of new pictures of bums to the Handling-Panhandling group. I’d wish everyone a happy Monday, but who in their right mind would be happy about it being Monday?
