15 more

There are only 15 more Monday's till Christmas.

This is what I learned this weekend:

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.
2. The Macphails had a lovely cookout yesterday, a celebration of life and the wonderment of a fire pit.
3. The suicide/elimination pool is back up and running. So get your picks in by 1pm on Sunday.
4. The Florida - Georgia game is on. Hotel is booked, the airfare is booked and Matty secured 4 tickets. Who is coming with? 3 tickets are spoken for.
5. Looks like Point Sebago may be a go for next year. The week of July 7th to the 14th. Rumor has it Jason Foley and his family are even in.
6. True North bar opened up in Weymouth, pretty nice.
7. This week is the Brimfield antique show.
8. I love when I hear people buying products and growing beards.
9. Would people be interested in a pub crawl to raise money for the devastation in Texas, caused by Harvey.
10. I don't really understand the purpose of cards against humanity.
11. 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.
12. Have you had the drunken meatball pizza from Coops? Shit is off the chains.
13. Would you buy 20 $30 scratch tickets, 30 $20 tickets or 60 $10 tickets?
14. What is more important to you? Time or money? Would you drive around for 1/2 hour looking for a parking space or would you just pay the $20 to park?
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.

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.

6. We all have that one friend who misses whole spots on themselves when applying sun screen.

9. Give me NHL playoffs over NBA playoffs anytime.

11. Fuck this 3A Fore River bridge shit too. Not the actual work but the drivers just lose their minds.
12. Wait people still play angry birds?
13. No lie, I heard someone use the word wigger and I didn't know if I should laugh or be offended.
14. I didn't win the Powerball. Gotta keep grinding.

Hope you can enjoy the weather and hit up the beach. Count down to vacation is on.

11. I guess the going rate for a triple decker in Dorchester is a smooth million.
12. Buckets of beers are still my jam. Nothing like being your own bartender.
13. Every now and again you need a vacation from your vacation.
14. Mungo just out crushing beers.
15. I guess the time to head down the cape is 3:30 pm.
16. Sick days are for the boys now.

2. Ice cream when you are drunk is the jam.

Please take a moment to remember our fallen soldiers on this Memorial Day.

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.

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

11. Jeffrey wants to put a trip to Toronto together, anyone interested?

12. Are you guys practicing your "Let's go Celtics" chants for tonight?

13. All this rain and cold weather is depressing. Bring on the heat.

14. Update from last week - I have heard from Nickerson, she is laying low saving for a condo. Still can't locate Coach K and my Redsox ticket money.

15. A case of Coors light bottles is $26.

16. Think officer Calnan has only a month left in the police academy, then a huge bash.

Alright hope to see you all on Saturday.

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!!
