Out with a bang

Big shout out to  Sean “Supah P” and Nicole Meehan on their upcoming baby, due in July. Congrats to Chelsea and Colin on their twins coming into the world on my birthday.


Well let’s see, I wasn’t going to do another blog this year but everyone is bitching and complaining.
So I went through each weeks post and took one thing from each list (Kind of like a year in review).

This is things I learned THIS YEAR:

1. I am not really sure where the Chinese food on Xmas Eve and NYE tradition comes from but it works.
2. The supermarket before a storm is basically the Thunderdome, anything goes.
3. Chris Leaden is working on coming to the world's largest outdoor cocktail party.
4.Being an adult means you can have nachos for dinner if you like.
5. If TK was to be on the rebound do any of you have any single aunt's or older sisters? Hell he's probably not too picky, a grandma will do.
6. Day drinking is my jam and even better with friends.
7. Ever just feel like you need a vacation?
8. Naps are under rated.
9. Thought we had a fish on the hook for Chrissys pegging but alas it was not meant to be, this time.
10. Where do you fall on the cuddle scale?
        A. I fucking love it - big spoon, little spoon.
        B. Let me pass out and then you can climb all over me like a spider monkey.
        C. Get your hot sweaty ass away from me.
11. If you get a chance head down to Twin Rivers on a Sunday morning. All the degenerate gamblers will make you feel better about your life.
12. It is good to know that I can still get after it on a Wednesday night and make it to work the next day.
13. People think most people from Boston are rude.
14.  I'm impressed with Chrissy and Leaden drinking beers out of a stein(3 beer stein) like that's an everyday thing?
15. No matter how nice something is, we all have that one friend who is a Debbie Downer and shits on everything.
16. Toucher and Rich said it best - Marathon Monday is so insane because people have been cooped up in their houses all winter long and they finally get a day to just let it all wash away.
17. Has anyone crashed the Chrissy/Chris standing Sunday date at BWW?
18. Cinco de Mayo is Friday. The start of tank tops, jean skirt and pig tail/braid season.
19.  I am not against going out to lunch solo.
20. You do not know panic until you have a tick crawling on your skin.
21. Getting shut off at a bar isn't a bad thing. Just means you did work.
22. Man buns are still a thing.
23. Wait people creep on Snapchat? They screen shot things and send them to other people to try to get them in trouble? Grillo.
24. People don't use the word weasel enough. That guy is such a fucking weasel!
25. I do not get this whole tall ships thing. Like what's the deal?
26. Those road side carnivals make 125k in 5 days just on ticket sales.
27.  Nothing quite like being at a bar and a guy says "hope he hasn't left yet. I don't want to chase him, he has the coke". Don't think he meant coca cola.
28. Have you been to the Range in Hingham yet? Good vibe, nice out door bar and a driving range.
29. Miller High Life, High life lite and MGD are all under rated.
30. Mikey T only drinks 16oz cans now
31. Uber is great and all but sometimes you get a real dick driver.
32. Thank God we have Calnan out there cracking down on Uber drivers cheating the system by renting rides.
33. Jeffrey lost his denture - single tooth.
34. How long does it take to get a package from China? I ordered a new phone battery in July.
35. Rumor has it there is a Popeyes coming to Quincy.
36. Anyone up for Point Sebago next year? Trying to get a good crew together.
37. Survivor flip cup is beyond ghetto. What's the purpose of playing a drinking game when you get kicked off a team? Attention span zero.
38. Never forget - tell a friend, telephone and tell TK are the 3 major ways to get all your business out there.
39. I heard a rumor that Coach K is rocking like 4 time shares in and around Disney. May be time to just invest in a condo bro.
40. Dunkin donuts tried to kill me this weekend, my iced coffee was pumpkin spice.
41. Credit card roulette is no joke, $250 later.
42. Still working on going to the Wickendon pub to finish my card. Hopefully before I turn 40. Who is in?
43. Getting good news on  Monday, unheard of.
44. Chrissy told me he is wearing jorts for 5 straight days in Florida. Straight fire!
45.  Irish breakfast shots are where it is at.
46. If you don't like bacon then we most likely can't be friends.
47.  I heard from Kung Fu Dave about his house warming party/night out in Lowell. I guess he is waiting for Chrissy to get a weekend on lock.
48. Guess who bought 6 tickets to the Kentucky Derby? Section 226?
49.  We all have family members that when they speak they make you cringe with things that come out of their mouth.
50. People are still getting iced?
51. My brother Ryan's answer for most things is "I'll stab him".
52. Rumor has it Chrissy is either going to start a 5K for charity or a pub crawl.


Here is to putting 2017 in the rear view mirror and onto 2018.  Lets go past the pinnacle this year ya’ll. New adventures and new outlooks.

13. Is the annual Xmas party at Alexs' still on?
14. It feels great to be all done shopping and all wrapped up.
15. Still no podcast because Kung Fun Dave car has a flat.

My favorite week

This is what I learned this weekend:
1. When drinking Jeffrey has his shoes shined up there is no slowing him down.

14. I had no clue they made turkey stock in a can. All these years I have used chicken.
15. Any time you can connect with old friends you should.
16. Make sure you text me with what you want for Christmas. Whitley Claus is on the loose.

17. Just seeing if you are paying attention. Skipped right over 16.

Labor day

Happy Labor day you animals.
While you all are out enjoying the last days of the summer I will be working.

This is what I learned this week:
1. I finally got around to watching Black Mirror on Netflix, that is some fucked up shit. I haven't made it through all 3 seasons yet.

15. There is no one I would pay $1500 per ticket to see front row center stage. How can Lady Gaga even charge that?
16. We are on to week 6 of waiting for my battery from China.

TMX draft recp



Welcome back to fantasy football season! Tmx is enjoying semi retirement on the TMX island not Belize so dont start the collusion talk with beach bums, I know how this league speculates! Stopping by for a quick recap and odds on winning the belt this season. The draft was quick and controversial the only way the league knows how to operate. 5 wide rec and 5 rbs was mysteriously replaced with one flex ( mysteriously meaning clerical error by the league office).  The league this year saw a run on qbs unlike any we've seen in the past with two teams drafting back to back qbs, there was also a run on PATRIOT rbs with three taken in a row in the 14th round and we had some out of the box tight end love as team new guy took top two tight end in his top 4 picks!! We also had our quickest shot pick as slippery wizards may have been too focused on shining last years winning belt! Murtaugh and Riggs also got in the shot buying biz but at least he was drafting for two! Quick shout out to the bartender for making the jolly rancher shot at 2007 prices no less. Lets recap this wild draft from 1-10 same crew as last year with the exception of the guy who came in last. That guy quit as he didnt want to wear the dress to the bar. TMX is not into bullying or public shaming so dont look to us to give up who that person was.

 Drafting first was The Luvbelow. First spot is pretty easy to get rolling with best player available and thats what Luv did taking D. Johnson. Following that up top ranked qb Rodgers and Luv is already off to another "great draft". Kelce is third pick and Luv has top rb, top qb and top 5 tight end. Took a few swings at rebound wrs with hopkins, arob. b.marshall and tate. Lacy and west backing up Johnson seems risky but if DJ plays like he did last year he prolly wont need a rb! Alot to love about this draft and like everything unless injuries come along there is no way The Luvbelow isnt in contention all year. 

 Second pick this year was Black Dynomite. They went safe with Lev Bell then followed it up with three straight wr Thomas, Dez and TY. Shouldnt be hard to roll them out each week only question being TY with the Luck health factor. Powell, Mcfadden, Abdullah and Kelly is a good group and like DJ when Bell is on you dont really need an rb2. Tight ends Eifert ( health issues) and Brate ( lotta mouths to feed in tampa) is a weakness But Matty Ice and Stafford is a good qb pairing. Black Dynomite will be flooding the trade market with unreal trades for Hogan and DMC so stay by your phones!! Once again Black Dynomite is a wagon and will be competitive.

  Third pick this year was the Equalizers who had a decent draft and avoiding going all in on GOD Brady. Equalizers took Brown and then later paired it up with big Ben, they took a great risk/ reward play with Zeke in round 3 and are praying for a Gurley comeback taking him in round 2.  Garcon, Mr Big Play Djax, Maclin and Mike Williams could be a concern for Equalizers at wr and by could be we mean hit the wire. But Pats d and Andrew Luck are quality later picks. Trades, waiver help and a Zeke explosion when he comes back could put Equalizers in the money

 Fourth pick this year was Charlies Angels the self proclaimed bad boys of adsl. Angels went with Julio and Cooper and three rbs in first 5 picks. Howard the safe pick then couple of swings at bounce back player beast mode and rookie heavy hitter ( well actually not so heavy cuz she got up)  Joe Mixon. In 8 and 9th he went qbs with carr and cousins for much needed qb depth or just to copy the stay woke #ogs?  Ruldoph and Cook could have break out years and if Tyreek hill continues from last yrs production and T Williams and Matthews hit the Angels could be looking to be in the money.

 Fifth pick this year went to  Twiddling dicks who went after wrs with 3 of the first four and loaded up Evans, Baldwin and Jeffery then finished the wr corps with Crowder and Diggs. Also taking God Brady second shows Twiddling is ready to roll. Comeback player of the year candidate Hyde and ppr machine woodhead  should be effective if not Frank Gore (what did you say?) FRANK GORE should get the points as he always does and taking a chance on AP late seemed safe. Tight ends Thomas and Njoku seem to be a weak point but all and all a good draft that i'm sure Twiddling only remembers half of.

 Sixth pick this year came from the fresh prince of Belize the Beach bums who were not present at the draft. Conflicting reports say he was on vacation or was suspended by the league for league wide violations up to and including several traid fleecing charges, threats at last draft  and performance enhancing drugs. Tmx will investigate any and all leads. Beachbums ignored the medical concerns and went with ODB then followed it up with Cooks and Brees . Took rooking Fournette and lottery ticket hunt then stabilized the rbs with less risk back up rb picks coleman, ingram and rawls. Henry and Doyle show promise last year and if that continues in those offenses tight end should be ok. BeachBums had an ok draft by Bums standards but they will be in the mix as always based on transactions and trade movement.

 Seventh pick and went to defending champs Slippery Wizards. Tmx doesnt count anyone out at the draft but Slippery Wizards have alot of work ahead. No one has won the league not having at least one top 2-3 player at a position and in many cases you need two not sure they accomplished that. AJ Green , demarco, Keenan Allen followed by Crowell and Ty montgomery are all good players but none are carry the team. Wizards took a chance on suspended rb Martin and got delanie walker and up and comer hooper at the tight end. Big run on qbs left the Wizards watching the top 12 go off the board before he got a shot and settled for Rivers and Dalton, hope there is paired with Allen and Green possibly double points?

Eighth pick this year went to The stay woke #ogs. They went with Freeman to lead a pack of young  rbs of Mcceverything, Perkins, Perine and vet Latavius Murray. The wr corp of Jordy, comeback candidate Benjamin, HIGH risk/ HIGH reward Martavis Bryant  with Britt and Lockett is a good group, paired with Jimmy Graham. The strength of #ogs maybe the back to back qbs he took in 7th and 8th! Russy and Cam going back to back for a team that was known to wait on qbs!! Is rocky boxing lefty??? #ogs look like a team with alot of assets and should be in contention.

Ninth pick this year went to Supah P's oops that was Welch's former team but he quit cuz he had to wear a dress TMX apologizes for the error actually NEW TEAM is Kung fu money grip. Team money grip came in late and was a little unorthodox to start Mccoy was the right pick at 9 but taking gronk in 2nd and reed in 4th seemed wild and millar is safe pick and Gillislee could have a Blount type monster year in that offense but Artis-Payne late seemed iffy at best. Lots of question marks at wr with Davante Adams who showed flashes, Fitzy can he still do it, John Brown with the health so its Crabtree and the rest of the guys at wr. Meredith unfortunatley is done for the year. Team money grip did get two qbs with upside in Winston and Dak so with some waiver moves and maybe a traid he should be in a better spot

Tenth pick went to Murtaugh and Riggs many calling them the team to beat as they started out with 3 rbs Gordon, Ajayi and cook and then went in on the preseason hot boys Pryor and Parker. Mariotta and Wentz at qb could be a who's hotter situation but both put up numbers in passing offenses. Cobb and Snead are two breakout candidates  in bigtime offenses as well. Ertz shows flashes and Ebron is still in the "this is the year" category. Murtaugh and Riggs should be rolling all year.

  TMX is in semi retirement and wont be blogging each week but may pop in. You can check the drunknothings blog or follow us on the twits @deeganisdead where we post all the updated stats from our comprehensive stat department #statsbyme. Good luck to everyone and hopefully its a year full of traids and no injuries! TMX OUT.

18. A good filling breakfast is the way to start a day.
19. Getting a group of people to decide on a place to grab dinner is one of the worst things in the world.
20. No one should be up at 5am on vacation.
21. People still do Marry, Fuck, Kill? Mine would most likely be all Fucks and Kills.
22. If someone says they do not masturbate punch them in the throat. They are lieing like a mother fucker.

Ok I have 500 emails to sort through so I gotta jet.  Remember Brady loves tequila and dick pics for her birthday, not necessarily in that order.

7. Both Chrissy and Jeffrey are having July 4th parties.

12. It is always great to see random people wearing Mustache Pub Crawl t shirts.

15. If you won 1 million bucks would you take it all in a lump sum or take the 50k a year for 20 years...basically till you are 83.
16. Sleeping is over rated.

As always I will try to do better next time.

P.S. I have no idea what is going on here but I love this picture of Jimmy -

11. Can someone explain to me what the Celtics are doing?
12. Kind of sad that Netflix cancelled Girl Boss.
13. Nothing quite like being at a bar and a guy says "hope he hasn't left yet. I don't want to chase him, he has the coke". Don't think he meant coca cola.
14. Got some new golf clubs. I still suck. Life lessons.
15. I feel like staining a deck should be quick and easy but nah it isn't.
16. Who knew Rob is a beer snob now? Kicked light beers to the curb in favor of IPAs.

I got 524 emails to rummage through so I have to run but hopefully I'll see some of you down at the Chipman family pig roast this weekend.

15. Has anyone seen Mike Foley? It is like he is always playing a real life game of Hokey Pokey. He pops in and out.
16. Those Johnsonville fire cracker sausages are pretty awesome.
17. How come no one wants to go to Barrett Jackson at Mohegan Sun?
18. Do you think TK will spend more time at the new Barretts Ale house or the old one?

Thanks off to do some errands.

Monday, June 12, 2017

14. I didn't win the Powerball. Gotta keep grinding.

2. Ice cream when you are drunk is the jam.
3. Anyone know anything bout them razor clubs? Fucking 42 dollars for some Mach 3s is insane.

Bitter Sweet

The 10th and final Mustache pub crawl is in the books. With a little help (or strong arming) from Sarah, Kaitlyn and Kiki we sold all the shirts, most of the koozies and some fake staches to raise $1402.



I rounded up and made the donation this morning for $1500.
I would like to thank everyone from the bottom of my heart that has supported the cause for the last 10 years. What started out as a small idea turned into so much more. Year one the shirts were $10 and I just wanted to see if I could get 40 people to grow mustaches and get together for a Saturday​ afternoon of bar hopping. After the initial turn out ended up being 70 some odd people I figured we had something cooking. We had high of 160 people one year and lows 50. We raised as much as $1900 (that went to the One Fund) and as low as $800 (when we moved it to father's day weekend). Any extra shirts we had left over we donated to the Veterans Association. We had good laughs and made new friends. In the 10 years we did this we only had a few minor hiccups - Bell n Hand, the Charlie Chaplin stache and few people turned away just because they were wearing crawl shirts but we never had any problems. So as we close the book on this weekend and the mustache pub crawl I just want to thank you all again.

I am definitely taking a year off to go to the Kentucky Derby. Maybe in my absence someone else will take up the pub crawl mantle. If not and there is still interest in doing one we can start anew, I'm thinking Wounded Warriors foundation?

This is what I learned this weekend:
1. Joe Q is still bat shit crazy.
2. The bars in Quincy center were all very accommodating.
3. Getting shut off at a bar isn't a bad thing. Just means you did work.
4. By the way if I was rude or anything to anyone after Kama lounge. I am sorry and don't remember much.
5. People losing their minds over $10 covers is funny to me.
6. Drunk Derek should never be allowed to order Chinese food. Everyone knows I'm just gonna pass the fuck out.
7. Some people are puke and rally kind of guys, others are fall down guys, while I am a passer outter.
8. Why does Snap chat update every other day now?
9. Fat Belly Deli still has it.
10. Chrissy was losing his shit when he thought Kristin's didn't have Reese's peanut butter cup pancakes anymore. Crisis adverted.
11. Is anyone watching American Gods? Is it worth watching?
12. Friday nights are perfect for couch time.
13. What is your for Memorial day weekend? Are you all heading down the Cape with the Macphails?
14. Nothing sucks worse than running out of propane while cooking on the grill.

Gotta go and do some work.

Monday, May 15, 2017

The final countdown

Man oh man, how time flies when you are having fun. In all honesty I cannot believe it has been 10 years since we started this Mustache Pub Crawl. What started out with me trying to organize 40-50 people on a random Saturday turned into much more. We have had great years where 150 people have shown and others when only 60 have. We have raised over $10,000 in the time we have been doing this and hopefully we can get at least $1500 more this Saturday. All and all I would say it will be a bitter sweet day.

This is what I learned this weekend:
1. Pretty sure not one person likes to work.
2. I'm amazed when people have never been to Florian hall before.
3. Chrissy loves his fireworks. Huge July 4th bash in Pembroke so he invested in $400 worth of pyrotechnics.
4. I love how I have asked everyone to meet up for a shirt, if they wanted them before the crawl and now they all text me to save them for me.
5. Not a fan of Michelob Ultra.
6. I am looking forward to the Pour yard opening up next to Cagneys.
7. You do not know panic until you have a tick crawling on your skin.
8. What excuse will Dave use for not showing up on Saturday?
9. Nothing worse than a headache that lasts for days.
10. I am not a fan of the new caramel M & M's

Only 12 days away

When is it too early to shave in my mustache for the 10th and Final Mustache Pub Crawl? There is a fine line to tow between creepy/pervert/everyday wear and doing it for a charity. 

This is what I learned this weekend:
1. Waking up with a headache is the worst.
2. Cinco de Mayo was a success. Cannot wait till next year's on a Saturday.
3. Sold enough shirts and koozies to pay off the bill, so now everything is for the charity donation.
4. Man people jumping on and off the Red Sox bandwagon is funny. We are only the 2nd week into May people.
5. Going out for lunch but staying out all day is always fun, right?
6. I am not against going out to lunch solo.
7. Guardians of the Galaxy 2 was funny as fuck.
8. What is up with Stop and Shop using those crazy bagging stations now?
9. Has anyone heard from Julie Nickerson? Haven't heard from her so I assume she is in love.
10. Joe Martell didn't realize how good Pearl Jam was till this weekend.
11. Korean BBQ is where it is at.
12. Hey if anyone sees Coach K remind him he still owes me for Red Sox tickets and he hasn't bought a pub crawl shirt yet.
13. Are you officially old when sleeping in means 7:30 am?
14. Do you put chips ON a sandwich or eat them WITH a sandwich.
15. May weather has been depressing.
16. Really who is watching boxing? It is 2017!!

3. It is great how many Celtics fans are creeping out of the woodwork.
4. Congrats to Colin on the new job at Hulls kitchen 2 (old Barefoot Bob's).

12. If you have not had the pizza at Game On do your self a favor and get on that.

It was fun while it lasted

The Bruins first playoff run in 3 years came to an end yesterday. Every game was tight and intense. Their young guys made big strides this year and I fully expect them to be back in it next year.

This is what I learned this weekend:

2. Some ladies to not like to be hit on by other ladies. Who knew?
3. I mean we all have been there but Mario has been burning the candle at both ends.
4. Man sales of MPC t-shirts are going slower than normal. We gotta sell units people.

8. Going out drinking at 11pm makes me feel like I'm 21 all over again.
9. I can't believe Memorial day is month away.
10. I have no idea why but I find it odd when someone over the age of 50 dies of heroin overdose.  Maybe because I think it's a young man's drug of choice and cocaine as an older person.
11. It is one thing to get cans of beer at the Garden but to get unopened cans is a whole other party. Mikey T popping em open.
12. Any time there is nice weather, after a few days of total gloominess, the crazies come out in droves.

15. Speaking of Chrissy, has anyone heard if his application to be best man in the Grillo wedding of the year has been approved or not?

Ok gotta run.
Next Friday is Cinco de Mayo...Shine up them drinking shoes.

14. A haircut always makes you feel fresh.

17. Don't tell anyone but I've been crushing Coronas lately.
18. Has anyone seen Mike Foley lately? Think he is in hiding.
