My 2010 football season predictions
What I think I'll be drinking during the season.
UConn: a real dry pale ale. Probably Caldera.
ND: Gin and Tonics
UMass: 9am on the west coast? Start with Bloody Mary's and then anything goes.
BGSU: A couple of growlers of something really, really hoppy.
Indiana: Kind of a bye week. My buddy is bringing his vaporizer.
MSU: Special order a case of Bell's Two Hearted
Iowa: Bourbon and more bourbon
PSU: Oct 30th in Portland? Gonna be Stout weather.
Illinois: Imperial IPA's. A lot of them.
Purdue: Boilermakers
Wisconsin: Margaritas and cheap beer.
Ohio State: One of all the above!
Is his vaporizer a Volcano?
No. He hates the bags. I think it's called an Aroma.
I've always found it a lot easier to pass around the bag while watching football(or anything for that matter). I guess they all do the job equally well, though.
Boiler up! and lets kick the crap out of that d bag Hope.
and then you went and made my day.
I'm going to disagree with you on UMass. It's not going to be a pretty carefree game, so I'd start with some leftover Oberon with some whiskey on hand for any injuries.
No Dos Equis, my friend?
the opponent is from? Anyone tried this?
Not a bad idea, but I'd want Oregon on the schedule every year.
Oregon has many, many fine beers. I wholeheartedly agree with you on that point.
However, I'd also want to play SDSU, in that case. I've been in southern California for the last six years, and I would hate to ever move, if only for the fact that I'd be moving away from some of the best breweries in the world (especially if you like IPAs). San Diego is my new Mecca.
I hear you, but Portland is Beervana.

I have been in PDX for 10 years now. The beer is what sold me. (And the strip clubs, mountains, the columbia river, ect.)
It's uncanny, but this is EXACTLY what THE KNOWLEDGE predicted as well.
Yer one of them 'straight edge' types, huh?
Not when it's done cleverly.
You've probably been there already but the Ninkasi tasting room in Eugene is a must.
You gotta try the Dogfish Head 60- or 90-minute IIPA. They're brewed in DE, so I don't know if you can get them in MI, but they're the one of the best things to come out of DE (better than their football team anyway). I'm not sure if it won any awards, but it's definitely well worth the price. Have a good drinking season!
I'll have to check those out when I get back for Thanksgiving. I haven't lived back home since '97, but it's good to hear that the more important industries are thriving! I was in Homer last summer and was actually really impressed with the selection at Cascarelli's. Definitely not what I expected for the area, but they had some great options. Cheers!
I love Founders! When I lived in Michigan my band played there a few times. Never good pay, but we always got a lot of free beer.
Michigan beer is really, really good but what's going on in the I-5 corridor from (Portland down to Ashland) is unheard of in quality. Not to mention that Portland has the most breweries per capita in the country!
are two of my favorites! Never been out to OR, but looking forward to getting out there when I have some time! Good to know UM fans have impeccable taste in beer!
