Which BSD Member Would You Most Like to Have a Beer With?

I think we can all agree the offseason is slow.  June is June and JoePa is old.  Hate week (month) has come and gone, as have many Mike Madeira targets.  Sadly (gladly), there've been no pot stories, no apartment or HUB fights and no pitbulls at pool parties.  My interweb surfboard needs rewaxing, as it's been all around looking for goodies: I branched out from bhgp, stopped in over at conquest chronicles, and even began prepping for our 2010-11 series by trying to make new friends down at roll bama roll.  To further pass these dog days, I even found myself re-reading posts on the Drake, before turning back to some old standbys: waiting for my invite to the volleyball / fencing pajama party.  Which got me to thinking that my pole is in order...er, a poll is in order.

Star-divide

I was reading another of Cairo's posts about turfgrass and thought how interesting it would be to put back a few beers and hear about all the stadiums he's been to and what's involved in installing a turf and what are the kinds of turf out there, and which is the best and which is the toughest to install.  Hell, I figure I could easily kill a couple hours in an airport bar listening to and querying that cat.  So, what about you?  Based on what you know from postings here, who here would you most like to have a beer (or seven) with, and why?  Since this is fantastical, let's restrict it to ppl you have not yet already had a beer with, or otherwise met.  I've really enjoyed my beers with TME, Buggy and Rockin, but can't vote for them here.  You've already got my Cairo vote, but RUTS, Mike, PSUJen and Rambler are in the two through five slots in no particular order.  So, who are yours?  Here's a poll to get you started (no offense to any omissions--it's just a starter list):

I prayed to Zug about including him on this poll. He spoke to me in the wind that it would be too blasphemous to refer to his Supreme Overlordness as a ‘member.’

On that note, does anyone know of any kind of low salt bacon? Seriously, I have tried to make some sort of bacon/bourbon infusion to incorporate into my next beer (think pepper vodka, if you cant think of it google it), but the infusion was waaaay too salty. It overpowered both the bacon and the bourbon.

There is definitely low sodium bacon out there. It’s in practically every grocery store.

I didn't know they made bacon falvored vodka...

shame on me! I was too lazy to look it up too. they used 3 strips for an entire pint of vodka, I used 4 strips for 1 cup of bourbon…might have to try less bacon (shudder).

You'd like to listen to me talk about soil and turf?

I think that would make me sound boring. I have been to quite a few stadiums and there are a few good stories, but it’s not all bacon, women, and song.

I’d rather talk to my friend who designed the sex grotto.

Generally, drinking beers and talking shit with someone knowledgable is far more interesting than standing around a keg with a bunch of dbagg-ed blowhards.

And conversational tangents to sex grottos are always available.

I’d most like my wife to have a beer with PSUWifey. Well, a cosmo anyway—poor soul still hasn’t learned to appreciate the nectar of the zugs (small caps intentional: plural reflective of the pantheon). Although my wife has wholeheartedly adopted the lifestyle, I feel she could benefit still from additional exposure to other PSUWives. Especially PSUWifey with her PSU history, family and blogging lifestyle.

About missing that Rose Bowl tailgate...

I’l second that. I wish I had meet up with you guys there. There’s always next time.

Though, as great a setting as the Rose Bowl and San Gabriel mountains are for tailgating, I prefer the familiarity of Mount Nittany as my backdrop. We’ll be sure to make it happen this season. Hopefully at both places (mmmm…kool-aid, bacon flavored kool-aid of course)

I don’t drink all that much though, so I probably wouldn’t be as much fun, or I’d be the rational one breaking up the drunken fight, or laughing hysterically when someone does something ridiculously stupid, yet hilarious. I also don’t know any people who read this site, but I know there are students on here.

Buggy and I are currently tied for last place, which I don’t understand since I’m not the one posting gross pictures, or “driving” a 1-2 horsepower vehicle. And I second the fear of Buggy. He seems like a shady Amish to me, with his computer, nasty poop fetish pics and everything (/ totally joking).

just changing the extension won’t convert it.

What I would do is open whatever image you have in MS Paint, do save as, save it as a .jpg (use the little pull down menu). I’d probably keep it relatively small size, since it is gonna be tiny on here anyway. I forget if they have size restrictions, but it only shows up as a 160×160 pixel image at most anyway, so just make it that size. Then you should be able to upload fine…

That '73 JoePa Article

Is unreal. He’s downright loquacious in that thing.

Also the timeframes. Totally trippy. He was 73-13 at this writing, had had two undefeated seasons and was in the middle of a third, and had been married 11 years and already had 5 children. That means he was married in ‘62 or ’61. He was also a ’full professor’ by this time in ’73, and, as such, unconcerned about getting canned for not winning (or at least used it as distinction with other young coaches those days).

I’m kinda fascinated by his early post-college life at PSU. I mean, besides trolling the library looking for chics and assisting Rip Engle with the football team, it sounds like he was pretty heavily involved academically. Did he earn a graduate degree? Or did he begin teaching right away with only his Brown comparative lit bachelors.

Additionally: Blatz & Blue Nun. I’ve never heard either of those sound so freakin cool.

Blue Nun

is a cheap bottle of white wine that you can still buy. I fear Blatz may have been lost to the sands of time.

The Rip Engle vote on USC was wild, 7-1 in favor of staying in State College with Paterno as the dissenting voice.

I think Paterno insisted on being made a full professor so that he would essentially have tenure, ie not be able to be summarily fired at the whim of an athletic director. I bet that was a pretty nice throw in when he turned down the Patroits job.

Ok

I have got to put down this crack pipe. Fascinating results in the poll so far. Will be interested to see what the pm crowd brings in. Thanks for chiming in, kids.

…and I’ve got one vote?

I’d be mad except that’s a killer lineup.

I kinda wanted to vote for you, because we know the least about you- for all we know, you’re a former drum major with an exotic topiary in a greenhouse.

Or something.

In the end, I was overwhelmed with potential hotness.

If it makes you feel any better

there’s only been 86 votes up to this point. So, 1 / 86 is better than 1 / 133!!!

I should have voted for myself

That’s what Zug did and look where he is today…a GOD and a LEGEND.

I work for a company that set up the network around there

It’s quite the operation to set all these up. It didn’t seem like that big of a deal when they were being put up though. It has seemed to work in a lot of areas.

Zug was a GOD and a LEGEND long before He voted for Himself. We just didn’t realize His amazing Zugness until that poll.

I've already had a beer with BSD, so he's out.

Thus, I chose RUTS. He’s the A.C. Green of bloggers.

H N B - I cast the first vote for you.

I didn’t think that it was right for any PSU fan to get shut out.

Of course, if someone wanted to add me to the poll & vote for me, I could discuss being there when we won our first national championship in the Sugar Bowl, seeing our first Heisman Trophy winner John Cappelletti (assuming that 2009 heisman trophy winner Sean Lee will be our second) play, all the years working in the parking lots at games, my spreadsheets for calculating the BCS standings or evaluating teams statistics compared to their opponents, the things I learned from former Wrestling coach Bill Koll or my sister’s job as the senior movie critic for People magazine (look for Leah Rozen when you see quotes in movie ads. Which would sound better when you want to impress your date and you are looking at posters in a movie theater or DVD boxes at a video store: “her brother reads the same blog as me” or “I met her brother.”?)

If I actually had to pick just one of you to meet, I would have a tough time since there are so many of you that seem so interesting.

Elihu to the rescue.

I’d love to hear stories of watching John Capelletti over a beer.

Isn’t it great how a post like this gets ton of comments, when some other blogs get 3 or 4 during the actual fb season?

We're at an immensely popular blog

According to Ball Hype BSD is 11th in popularity. It’s quite a testament to what Mike, Kevin, and Ruts have all done. I can’t imagine trying to write a blog and no one commenting on anything for a long time.

Final note.

I inspired this thread, but I did not get into the poll. That means it’s a safe assumption that I would be everyone’s #1 choice much like jtothep.

Y’all are fightin’ over silver.

Last place, that is.

Is there a boobie prize of some sort? Maybe two?

What a thread change!

Just came back to Charlotte from an awesome camp’n / tub’n trip in the NC mtns (highly recommend to any BSD’ers who have not been – and enjoy the outdoors. Lots of rain this year, and the rivers/creeks and therefore waterfalls are full and look great!)

Soooooo; I am about caught-up on “here” now…

I came; I read; I voted…

We ARE!

Cool change of pace “j”…
