Around SBN: Stampede Blue interviews Tony Mandarich Bar-right-arrows



A Brief Vacation

I don't know how this slipped my mind until now; I guess I've just been crazy busy, but I'm going to take the next 5 days off because, well, because I'm getting married tomorrow. I'll eventually add some photos in the comments thread, but my wife to be and me are keeping this decidedly low key. That is no ceremony, no tux, no gown.

I should be back to daily or near daily posting by Monday. Thanks everyone.

Congrats!
Congrats on the nuptials, John! I trust she is a 'Hawks fan.

Congrats, John!
This place has been wedding/engagement central lately, what with Shrug, Scruffy, and now you all getting engaged/hitched.

Now all you need to do is set up a joint Myspace page with your new wife. That's when you know your commitment is for real.

I reject your reality and substitute my own!

Congrats!!
wow, I've been saying that a lot lately.

But seriously, this is awesome to hear!

Josh Brown is better than you. The Rest of the team is worse.

Congrats
Low Key is something I'm starting to wish for watching the bills for my wedding climb.

Conversation I had a week ago-

Scruffy's future Mrs - Lets go to Kauai
Scruffy - How much?
Scruffy's future Mrs - $520 a night
Scruffy - Thats a bit pricey
Scruffy's future Mrs - I already reserved the room and paid for 2 nights
Scruffy - sigh..... fine

You're already doing well.
The best thing you can do is just smile, nod, and say, "Do what you want, sweetie." Otherwise there will be hell to pay.

True
It's why video games remain important. Hey, I control what I do on COD4 at the very least! Of course, I don't control how much I PLAY COD4......

I got the COD 4 ban hammer last night :(
But it was probably deserved as I blamed her for me dying

Excellent!
You mean you don't have the inlaws going buck wild if you don't have deviled eggs (GIVE ME DEVILED EGGS) at the reception? Wow, you are missing a TON!

If by "married"
you mean "Liposuction" or "Gastric Bypass surgery" then yes you are John!

DAMMIT!
There goes my chance to marry John Morgan.  

by jimmimoose on Jan 30, 2008 11:31 PM PST   0 recs

Wait, didn't you want to
marry Dreamboat? Or was that somebody else?

For John Morgan and Josh Brown?
I'd even go Mormon.  

Though it was someone else who wanted to marry Dreamboat, I believe.

CONGRATS!!!
Here's to John finally losing his virginity.

A little tip for the first-timer: Bring KY Jelly. On a related note, make sure you keep your little travel toothpaste tube far, far away from the nightstand.

by Bloof on Jan 31, 2008 9:35 AM PST   0 recs

The Jelly
So, so, so, so, so, so true....

oh geez

sexy sexiness
It's true. I love the Seahawks. If I didn't, I don't think we would be together. Or I would be tremendously unhappy.
I love John Morgan.

What a weird subject heading, honey.
Yeah, I'm kind of a strong personality. When I was in High School I convinced everyone I knew to like Modest Mouse. Convinced isn't the right word. I don't, um, proselytize or anything, but the things I love I'm crazy enthusiastic about. I guess it's catchy.

by John Morgan on Jan 31, 2008 12:17 PM PST to parent up   0 recs

I hope you know what
you're getting into!

Whoa!
I had no idea it was happening so soon! Congratulations! You two knuckleheads!

On next week's episode of Field Gulls Confidential: Scruffy runs for President!

Aw man!
Why can't I run for president, Shrug?

Well, you can try.
But have you seen Scruffy's plan for reducing the federal deficit? It's killer stuff!

Oof.
There is no weather analogy to describe the crappiness of our wedding day.

I hurt my back at work (but finished my shift and worked today (and am in excruciating pain))

My Wife's (!) elderly great uncle was thrown out of his apartment and since her parents are away on a cruise the responsibility fell to us.

About a million other things I'd care not detail.

And now Alanya has strep throat.

Hopefully this is one of those starts bad/ends good things. Basically the complete opposite of the Green Bay debacle, which, even now, after weeks and in perspective of everything else that's happened, hurts like a bitch. How's that for pathetic fandom?

I'll be back on Monday. I might run a rolling drunk through the weekend while my wife (!!) sleeps off her infection. Or, since I almost certainly was exposed, maybe I'll just get real sick in time for the Super Bowl.

Ah, man, sorry to hear that.

Thanks, and it's alright.
I don't usually like to share bad news, but I told you all first about the marriage, sort of thought you all deserved a follow up.

by John Morgan on Feb 1, 2008 12:40 PM PST to parent up   0 recs

Great, now we're going to
have to deal with exclamation points every time John talks about his wife (!!).
