Drinking Games and Power Rankings [Podcast]

For those of you who do not know, Harrison and I do a weekly radio show (Wednesdays 7-8 PM at radiofords.com/listen). We'll try to upload them in podcast form weekly to this site, as well as a transcript of some of our juicier material. The podcast usually consists of a recap and analysis of the major sports, as well as a few more obscure ones. For details on this week's see the end of this post.

Drinking Game

Harrison's weekly off-the-cuff drinking game should be played to Game 1 of the Royals-Orioles series (Friday at 8:00 PM). Drink every time:

    1.    Someone sings (e.g. National Anthem, “Take Me Out to the Ball Game”)

    2.    Cameras Zoom in on an Orioles’ fan wearing a funky orange costume

    3.    Cameras Zoom in on a Royals’ fan wearing a funky blue costume

    4.    Foul ball caught in the stands*

    5.    You misunderstand the rules of baseball

    6.    The announcers reference some complex baseball strategy you don’t understand

    7.    Scoring opportunity that is not capitalized upon

    8.    The team you arbitrarily pick to root for loses = finish drink

*You should do this for every baseball game at every level, not just for this Weekly Drinking Game

Power Ranking

Harrison spouted off his top 10 favorite breads with no previous knowledge that he would do this. The sure-to-engender controversy ranking:

10. Bunny Bread

9. Whole Wheat with way too many seeds in it

8. Dinner Rolls

7. Marble Rye

6. White Bread (regular)

5. Bread Bowls

4. Whole Wheat with a normal number of seeds in it

3. Honey Wheat

2. Sourdough

1. Pumpernickel

Podcast

This week we sorted the contenders from the pretenders in the NFL, bet the farm on a squash tournament, recapped some cricket, complained about Percy Harvin's lack of fantasy impact, and put Harrison on the spot a few times. Check it out!
