Vegas Trip Recap and The 2005 Buffalo Gangbangers

Well I survived Sin City for the 3rd time of 2005. The reason excuse for this trip was to meet up for our Fantasy Football draft. So 8 out of 12 team owners decided to fly out to Vegas to gamble, drink, and draft a fantasy football team. Good Times. Geoff and our buddy Stan the Man flew in a night early so we could check out "downtown". We figured we would stay at the cheapest hotel/casino possible and get blind drunk playing $5 blackjack tables. Well, that is EXACTLY what we did the first night. After checking into the Lady Luck (which is a MAJOR dump) we walked down to Freemont St. and hit The Golden Nugget for some blackjack and free beers. After playing and drinking for a few hours we crossed the street to Binions, where we did exactly the same thing.

The next day we got up pretty early and Stan and I entered into the Golden Nugget's 11am NL Poker tourney. Since this post is already waaay to long I will shorten up the tournament recap by saying that out of 60 players I made it down to the final two and chopped the pot with an old English guy named Bob. We split $3200. Nice. So my first 18 hours in Vegas definitely did not suck and I am proud to say that I have cashed in both tournaments I have played in Vegas. Anyone who would like to sponsor my $10,000 entry fee in next years WSOP is more than welcome.

After my victorious poker tournament win I was on a mission to get as shit faced as possible and did so the rest of the weekend. Geoff, Stan, and I headed down to Mandalay Bay to meet the rest of the crew and I started to do my best impression of Nicholas Cage in Leaving Las Vegas. Drank and gambled all Friday night at Mandalay Bay. Slept for 4 hours. Saturday afternoon drank and gambled at Luxor, then down at the Wynn. Went back to Mandalay to change to go out for the night. We ended up making a few bad decisions after that hitting a lounge at Excalibur, because one of the single horny guys we were with (Murat) heard that horny chicks who just saw Thunder From Down Under (I refuse to link to this) would be there. Well lets say there were lots of overweight nasty chicks. Only my buddy Lips wanted to stay. After that we ended up making another blunder by heading to see Bikini Bullriding (yes, you read that right) at The New Frontier. I have never seen more Stetsons in my entire life. Only my buddy Greene wanted to stay there. We finally decided to go down to the Hard Rock, which was the only good decision of the night. Somewhere along the way I lost my camera, so no pictures unfortunately, hopefully Stan has a few good ones.

Sunday was the draft, yours truly had the 12th pick. I ended up with Julius Jones, and Randy Moss with my first two picks. I ended up getting Antonio Gates and Andre Johnson in rounds 4 and 5. Rounds 5 and 6 were ugly, I blame it on the booze. Bottom line on my draft, I am screwed at RB other than Jones unless either Travis Henry or Cedric Benson come up big. Henry may, but the Bears are going to BLOW HARD and Benson probably won't do much. Oh well. At least I get to root for Lee Evans who I got pretty late. The rest of Sunday was pretty much alcohol free, I played in a $2-$4 game at Mandalay Bay where half the table literally never played hold em' before. I ended up a little bit, but was too tired to take advantage. Just about all of us passed out early Sunday, and Monday I was on my way back to reality. Four night in Vegas is tough. Now if you will excuse me I am on my way to get a blood transfusion.

Off White Khakis

My good friend Bona Friar used to have the same issue as the guy on the right. Boy, did we sure get get a kick out of this. The difference obviously between Bona Friar and this particular cyclist is that Bona Friar would be sitting down wearing off white khakis in such a way that his c-toe was rather noticeable. The cyclist in the photo may very well have a vagina, who knows? And yes, you might say it is very gay to check out a man's c-toe, and I would agree with you, but it is also very funny nonetheless.

Very hetero - this photo of JL Hewitt. Man, she is smoking hot. I don't care if she doesn't have a career anymore. As long as we have the internet to provide photos of her that is all I need. I'll never ever forget watching Party of Five and her bouncing around in those tight sweaters trying to help Bailey with his alcohol problems. via SP

Speaking of alcohol problems, I will be having problems not getting enough alcohol this upcoming weekend. That's right, Vegas trip number 3 this weekend. I will hopefully return with a full report and lots of pictures and some spare change.

Football and Women

Because I am a loser, I was on the Philadephia Eagles' website to see if there was any information about TO's groin injury for fantasy football purposes. I was quickly distracted by the portion of the official NFL Eagles site devoted to their cheerleaders. Enjoy.

What a cooze.

Sports, Sports, Sports, and Drunk People

Very disturbing article in the The Buffalo News regarding the Sabres challenges signing free agents. There is a long list of prominent NHL players who have left this organization in bad terms, and the point about Adrian Aucoin stings a little bit, don't it? The lone free agent signing so far has been Teppo Numminen, he is pushing 40 and they paid him a good amount of money. Both your top defensive and offensive player are now gone. This definitely makes me wonder how committed the Sabres are to winning in the near future.

In Buffalo Bills news, I love JP's mobility, but he will be injured in week three if he doesn't learn to throw from the pocket and friggin slide after taking off with it. He also has almost gotten Eric Moulds, Mark Campbell, and Tim Euhus KILLED so far this season with errant throws. I do have to say the defense and special teams looks like they will be as good if not better than they were last year. Could be a roller coaster year for the Bills. I was unfortunately not in attendance for Saturday's game and it looks like I missed an off-the-hizzook post party out in Clarence, NY...I did get some photos emailed to me though...Enjoy...


He is a married man and neither of these girls are his wives.





Update: There were a few GREAT photos I had to take down per the request of the shirtless drunk wonder in them. Oh well.

Crazy

Why the hell would anyone play pick up football with Lawrence Phillips? I rather play pick up basketball with Ron Artest.

Dessert

Lando reccommended Perry's Panda Paws. Lets just say that was a really good reccommendation.

Show Me The Money!

The big winner in the big poker game last night was the man who showed up in the "Show Me The Money" shirt. Great. We are still not sure if he knew what he was doing (I don't think he folded a hand all night) but he outlasted 15 of us to take home a couple hundred bucks. Good job, Linder. Keep calling huge raises with 10-4 off suit. I'm not bitter.

If you have not seen The Family Guy "Take On Me" clip here you go: friggin great.

The Real B-Lo

So I finally watched a whole episode of Laguna Beach last night. And wow, what happened to my favorite high schoolers from So Cal? Either I am a year older and officially super effing old, or these new kids are SUPER RETARDED IDIOTS. I will not go into anymore details because I am already embarrassed that I admitted to watching this show. Let me just add that Jessica is my new favorite character....Moving on....After watching LB I stayed tuned to MTV and watched My Super Sweet Sixteen. If you did not see it last night please TiVo it and watch it. Like a train wreck.

Superior Pics never disappoints.

Would anyone else like to hear Eva Longoria say vibrator over and over and over? I would, especially after seeing these.

Disturbing

The Espresso Porn site is not all that disturbing, just a little strange. But this forehead injection is just plain fucked.

I promise I will focus more on Jessica Alba, Mandy Moore, and Rachel Bilson in future postings.

All Work and All Play

It has been a very busy couple of weeks for me and I have not had many chances to update FTIT. With the house, work, and summer parties I have not had all that much time to do too much else. But, with things getting settled at the house and the summer winding down I should be getting back in the groove and wasting time on the internet.



I just caught the most recent episode of Entourage last night and I must say I am really enjoying Mandy Moore's appearances. I can totally understand why Vincent Chase is still in love with her. I was also a big fan of the girl who played Ari's bosses daughter. Her name is Emmanuelle Chriqui, and she is hot. More of her please.


Like I said she is hot.

I have officially thrown in the towel on the fantasy baseball season. The Big Balls are in a rebuilding mode and looking forward to next season. It also looks like the Yankees are going to need a miracle to make the post season. I would not count them out yet but with their pitching in such a shambles I can't see how they rip off 10 games in a row which is what they need to do. I would hand the Cy Young award to Mariano Rivera though. Check out his Stats this year, he has been SICK.

Two weeks from now I will be in Vegas. It's ok to be jealous.

SBC Park

I basically had THIS VIEW at the Giants/Astros game in SF this past Friday night - unbelievable stadium.

Don Cheadle

I was just watching Don Cheadle in "The Golden Palace" and WOW look at how long he has been around acting - just a few years???? My favorite is Buck Swope, but man, he was was doing shit when I was still playing with my legos.

OOOOOOOOK

Is it me, or does this story just blow your mind a little bit?

Butch Rolle

Alcohol rocks part two: Tara Reid parties hard.

NFL training camps are in full swing, Peter King is keeping a daily blog of his training camp observations. Madden 2006 is out on Tuesday, I've got the 12th pick in my fantasy draft, and the Bills home opener is about a month away. I am ready for some FOOTBALL. More on the 12th pick, since we are drafting a keeper league this year I am not all that upset with this pick, I will have 2 players before anyone else and who will hopefully become keepers for next year. Of course my draft this year depends on coming up with a plan and sticking with it since I will be highly intoxicated by the time we kick off the draft live from Mandalay Bay in Vegas Baby....And with my 12th and 13th picks I will take J.P. Losman and Butch Rolle...Could happen. Yikes.

And since I posted that very disturbing news about Iron Mike here is some Adriana Lima hotness from umc. The internet is great.

Alcohol Rocks!

Real World Melinda fans, here you go - NSFW!! Excellent.

Zhitnik on my Peca

So NHL free agency has begun and it looks like Alexei Zhitnik is now an Islander. All signs point to the Sabres not resigning Satan either. This new competitive balance is great and all but the Sabres better get off their asses and sign some decent players otherwise I can see fans getting pretty PISSED. On a selfish note Zhitnik was the last Sabre left to my favorite Sabres poem ever:

There is Zhitnik on my Peca, can you Smehlik, is it Grosek?

Well the picture quality ain't great and the dude definitely ruins most of the photos, however I will take the yellow bikini, frolicking on the beach, riding a quad, rubbing your bare ass photos any day of the week.

Very messed up weather here in the Buffalo lately, last night we had a freaky ass red sky thing going on followed by a torrential down pour and serious lightning storm. Here is my artistic photography of the red sky from my front porch right before the storm:



And no I did not buy and hang the hanging light balls or the plants, that is what girlfriends are for. But yes I did have several glasses of wine in me when I decided to take photos of the red sky. Thank You.

Player for Life

Shouldn't Jessica Alba be sporting an iPod?
