incredible
December 17th, 2014 at 8:50 PM ^
I know right? That's what we were all thinking, we just didn't go out of our way to post it.

Relatively new poster makes a very appropriate drinking/social thread given the circumstances, and you rush to your keyboard to unleash the snark.
Ironically, you need a drink more than anyone, apparently.
Kudos to the OP for getting this started tonight. I'm going to make a Leopold Brothers Maryland Style Rye Old Fashion in Tate Forcier's honor and youtube '09 Notre Dame.
December 17th, 2014 at 8:28 PM ^
I have an exam in 15 minutes :(. After that, I'll probably need something.
December 17th, 2014 at 8:32 PM ^
Good luck! I remember those days.
December 17th, 2014 at 8:36 PM ^
what time zone are you in.
as an aside, back in the day, i used to take a cooler to my finals and about 2/3 the way through the test i'd crack a cold one open and sip it as i finished up. fun to see the heads of all the b-school students whip around at that sound. nowadays they'd probably frown on that...
December 17th, 2014 at 9:06 PM ^
I remember those days too.
My MGoDaughter just finished 1st semester freshman year and is now home. She just got most of her grades tonight on line: at least a 3.8. Not bad for a biology major.
So the answer is I'm having Glenlivet to celebrate.
December 17th, 2014 at 8:28 PM ^
Finishing off my Redd's and Fireball combo tonight. I'm feeling right as rain atm...
December 17th, 2014 at 8:35 PM ^
Aren't those referred to as Red Ballz? I know Angry Orchard and Fireball is called "Angry Ballz"

Just poured a Two Hearted into a UofM pint glass. Next will be a UPA from Bells new offshoot Upper Hand Brewing.
December 17th, 2014 at 8:32 PM ^
Original Sin hard cider. Good stuff, on a cold night!
December 17th, 2014 at 8:32 PM ^
Arrogant Bastard.
December 17th, 2014 at 8:32 PM ^
for the GF. Bought a cheap Sangiovese - Tancia - from the little wine shop in Kerrytown. Actually pretty good. Having a JD with an ice cube for dessert. Not the biggest fan of JD, but this bottle is of interesting provenence and needs to be finished. Cheers.
December 17th, 2014 at 8:35 PM ^
I was not going to drink tonight, but once I seen your name and the picture of Tate Forcier it made me want to.
December 17th, 2014 at 8:37 PM ^
Double Harbaugh. Neat.
(okay I'm really having Larceny Bourbon)
December 17th, 2014 at 8:38 PM ^
A nice chianti. Don't judge me...I have to teach America's youth tomorrow.
December 17th, 2014 at 8:39 PM ^

Just had an amazing prime rib with a glass of diet coke. Bananas Foster for dessert

That sounds amazing, minus the diet
December 17th, 2014 at 8:49 PM ^
Where I used to work we would melt butter in the au jus and it was amazing. I hope that slab of meat came red.
December 17th, 2014 at 8:42 PM ^
all my hopes and dreams for 2015.
December 17th, 2014 at 8:45 PM ^
Drinking a Green Flash West Coast IPA. Also, that is a great screen name.
December 17th, 2014 at 9:40 PM ^
Then a Cereal Killer by Arcadia. When Jim signs I'll be having something very rare and expensive
December 17th, 2014 at 10:23 PM ^
Same here, a Brooklyn Brewery Bourbon barrel aged ale awaits the announcement.
December 17th, 2014 at 8:45 PM ^
Remy Red VSOP and some Budlight
December 17th, 2014 at 8:45 PM ^
Dogfish 60 minute. Funny watching the NFL "insiders" finally reporting on what we been talking about on the blog already.

Same here. Come to us, sweet Jim. May your reign be as delicious as this greatest of all IPAs.
December 17th, 2014 at 8:46 PM ^
Titos and Tonic.......not going in to the office til 11 tomorrow.
December 17th, 2014 at 8:49 PM ^
Founders Porter. It's going to be another long, dark and heavy night; waiting for news I know I won't hear until the 29th.
December 17th, 2014 at 9:32 PM ^
import eh?
December 17th, 2014 at 8:50 PM ^
Four Roses Small Batch is nice. My favorite Bourbon, though, is Jefferson's Presidential Select. Ocean is great too. But like you, I will save the really good stuff for the day he signs. Tonight, for me, it's Evan Williams Small Batch.

Pappy VanWinkle 15 when Jimmy I takes the job or Xmas eve. Whichever comes first.
December 17th, 2014 at 8:58 PM ^
Go strong or go home! I just discovered Buffalo Trace. $23 and it is good enough to sip and cheap enough to mix. I was a fool mixing Blantons and peach tea.
December 17th, 2014 at 9:03 PM ^
Love the trace too! If you get a chance try Willet's Pot Still.
December 17th, 2014 at 11:08 PM ^
Will do.
December 17th, 2014 at 9:41 PM ^
I'm on my 2nd Buffalo Trace currently. Good call.
However, you sir should be ashamed of yourself for mixing Blanton's with anything
December 17th, 2014 at 11:07 PM ^
When I was young and foolish. Ok, it was this summer.
December 17th, 2014 at 9:11 PM ^
Should have saved this for your Harbaugh celebration dance - you need to pace yourself man
December 17th, 2014 at 9:22 PM ^
I've only just begun.

What this means to me is that I have four more working days in 2014 now barring storm, so due to that I am not celebrating or drinking to anything in particular. I will, however, raise this glass of Fat Bastard Merlot in honor of a very entertaining run of shitty bowls that will be upon us rather soon. Sadly, we will not be involved, but we can at least marvel in ganes that should never be.
December 17th, 2014 at 9:02 PM ^
Founders all day IPA. I just took my last college final so I needed this.

Ten Ninety Imperial Black Saison. A 750 is definitely getting the job done.
December 17th, 2014 at 9:09 PM ^
