Who is winning the World Series, Superbowl, and Stanley Cup(should there be one)? Careful, I'm holding you to your answers, and just try not to be a complete homer.
World Series - Texas Rangers Super Bowl - Houston Texans Stanley Cup - New Jersey Devils (tee hee) NBA Championship (you left this out, but I'm adding) - OKC Thunder MLS Cup (SOCCER F*CK YEAH!) - NY Red Bull
If the answer is something different than "wine sucks", what are some of your favorite bottles?
This is tough. Am I eating dinner? Am I at a party where I'll be standing/dancing? This may surprise people, but refined Flanzo loves wine. I like a good sauvignon blanc if I'm at a party at an art gallery or place along those lines (yes, I do go to these). If I'm eating a steak? Give me a nice strong carbenet. And if I'm eating a light seafood-type meal I usually go with a chardonney.
The wine I drink like water is Pinot Grigio, which my ex-g/f used to drink every night and I used to just chug, basically. My wine tolerance is off the charts for someone who doesn't drink it consistently.
Well, I grew up in the same town as the oldest functioning winery in the country (Brotherhood Winery), but their wine sucks, haha. I don't have a favorite bottle, I'm not too picky, I guess. If you have some suggestions based on what I said above on some bottles that aren't too expensive that I should try, I'd love to hear your thoughts. Besides, a guy who knows his wine is a better aphrodisiac than a single 30-something going to her best friends wedding. Nawmean!?
So since you haven't named a successor: Who do you honestly think will win the division in Thunderdome? Who is the better Jets quarterback? How many games will the Jets win this season? What is your fav daytime trash tv show?
- Me. - Sanchez, but he's playing his worst football since his rookie year, so can I pick "nobody"? Tebow's not a QB. - At this point? 7 to 9 is my guess, possibly 6. Fun year. - I never watched daytime TV, really, but staying home sick and seeing youtube videos of the "You're not the daddy!" videos makes this an easy choice: Maury
Not to be a wanker, but I think going forward the cutoff for new questions should be the last day of the month the person has been assigned. (Especially when they're behind in answering the questions they already have )
Flanzo, might you tell us who the November BMotM is so we can start thinking of our questions for them?
I'm just waiting to hear back from them that they can do it this month.
And EAP didn't name me until like the 2nd or 3rd of Sept. so blame her for screwing up my timing.
Oh EAP, you naughty little lady.
And holy crap, you knocked the hell out of those questions!
Who is winning the World Series, Superbowl, and Stanley Cup(should there be one)? Careful, I'm holding you to your answers, and just try not to be a complete homer.
World Series - Texas Rangers
Dont worry, I forgive you though bc I endorse this answer.
Okay, I am going to be stupid busy today, so I'm just doing this now. Glennron, your time has come. I didn't think you need a flashy, colorful announcement, so here's a picture of one of my favorite duos growing up, and one of my go-to NBA Jam teams:

Let's establish a baseline. What is your favorite...
album of all time? album of 2012? concert of all time? concert of 2012? musical group/artist of all time? musical group/artist you discovered in 2012? bonnaroo year lineup? book? author? movie? tv show? jelly bean flavor/color? planet? color? adult beverage?
Describe your favorite deli-style sandwich. Be the driver or the passenger? Favorite music to blast while driving with the window down? High school senior prom: Horrible night or treasured memory? Tomato: A fruit or a vegetable? While watching a comedy/stand-up alone: Laugh out loud or smile quietly to yourself?
Welcome back Bonz, but I do not find it strange that your presence being requested in the Orgy thread and then you showing up, like it was the quacking Bonzai Bat Signal.
When I first joined, I remember that you had Trevor Powers as your Avatar. Is Year of Hibernation particularly meaningful to you? If so, where does rank amongst your favorite albums?
How much do you hate Ray Allen for going to Miami?
A large part of my NBA fandom died when Ray Allen was traded to the Sonics, especially since it was at the request of George Karl who was a pretty big turd. As a 14 year old it’s hard to have a player easier to root for than Allen. He legitimately wanted to stay in Milwaukee, which isn’t exactly something a lot of star athletes want to do. Because of that, I’ll always love him and it’d be ridiculous for me to hate him for anything. And btw I’d root for the Heat before I’d root for the Celtics.
How much do you hate Scott Walker and Paul Ryan?
Scale of 1-10? Probably like 9 for Walker and 8 for Ryan. Walker's higher because his legislation has a much more direct impact on me than does Ryan's.
What is your favorite Wisconsin beer?
For every great local beer I've had, there are a hundred I haven't had the chance to. There's a pretty great brewery called Lakefront in Milwaukee, and my favorite as of late has been their Riverwest Stein. www.lakefrontbrewery.com/riverwest_stein_lager.html. I also love Oktoberfest beers, and there are tons of good ones around here so this is an exciting time.
Let's establish a baseline. What is your favorite...
album of all time?
Abbey Road
album of 2012?
The Walkmen-Heaven
concert of all time?
Arcade Fire Lollapalooza 2010
concert of 2012?
Jack White Lollapalooza
musical group/artist of all time?
Normally I'd say The Beatles in a heartbeat, but I've been on a massive Talking Heads kick the last couple months. It's more of a 1a and 1b situation I guess.
musical group/artist you discovered in 2012?
Probably Tanlines. I've played that album a sh*tton.
bonnaroo year lineup?
Only been to 2011 unfortunately, but I remember thinking the '09 lineup was ridiculously stacked for my tastes.
book?
A Clockwork Orange.
author?
To be honest it's kind of embarrassing how infrequently I read. I know a lot of people say this, but something has to be SUPER compelling for it to hold my interest. I can't say there's one author in particular that clearly stands out for me.
movie?
Empire Strikes Back.
tv show?
Drama: The Wire. Comedy: Choosing between Seinfeld and Arrested Development is torture. I'll say Seinfeld by the tiniest of margins ever.
jelly bean flavor/color?
Red/cherry.
planet?
Neptune
color?
Blue? I honestly don't really have one.
adult beverage?
Beer. I used to be able to drink hard alcohol like a fiend freshman and sophomore year of college, but now I'm a lame old man who has a tummy ache the following morning if I have a couple of mixed drinks.
Thinly sliced ham, cheddar cheese, lettuce, and cucumbers that I'll pick off and eat separately because they're better that way.
Be the driver or the passenger?
If it's a road trip then passenger because you're able to see more cool stuff, but shorter ride I'd rather drive cause most of my friends have garbage taste in music and I don't want to subject myself to that.
Favorite music to blast while driving with the window down?
Pretty much any electronic/synth pop/80's throwback type stuff. Cut Copy/Hot Chip/M83/Chromatics. M83's Hurry Up We're Dreaming was in my car for about four months after it came out last year.
High school senior prom: Horrible night or treasured memory?
I never went to prom, although the night of my senior prom let's just say there were all sorts of doubles and triples hit in my crappy 15 year old car with a girl that was kind of my girlfriend but not really at the time. So I'd like to think I somewhat experienced prom while missing out on the whole paying $80 to listen to shizzy music and awkwardly dance for four hours.
Tomato: A fruit or a vegetable?
Vegetable.
While watching a comedy/stand-up alone: Laugh out loud or smile quietly to yourself?
Smile quietly. It takes a lot to get me to laugh out loud. I've actually gotten in drunken discussions with friends over what % of people are funny and I always say wayyy lower than most other people say.
When I first joined, I remember that you had Trevor Powers as your Avatar. Is Year of Hibernation particularly meaningful to you? If so, where does rank amongst your favorite albums?
Not particularly, no. I mean there was a stretch last winter (when I first heard the album and probably when I switched my avatar?) where I listened to it every morning for a couple weeks straight. Just seemed like such a good album to wake up to.
Probably one of my 10 favorites from 2011, but nothing really more beyond that.

Have you broken any bones? How? Do you still have your tonsils? Appendix? Wisdom teeth?
It's pretty cool I guess. There are probably much more interesting people that could've been chosen.
Right pinky in 5th grade playing basketball, cracked a bone in my right hand punching my brother in 5th grade over a video game (long story where everyone agrees I'm in the right but I guess it's for another time when I'm not stealing people's spotty internet), and left pinky in 7th grade gym class playing a game called pin guard, which is basically dodgeball on steroids. So basically all lameass injuries.
And the only thing removed from me has been my wisdom teeth when I was 16.
