Word of advice on flights. Flying into Atlanta will probably be your cheapest route, but it's a four hour drive of the most boring stretch of highway in the South. Rt. 16 from Macon to Savannah has few exits and is trapped heavily. If it doesn't break the bank, fly directly into Savannah. We just had a hockey tournament in Savannah this past weekend and a room at a decent hotel with an easy walk to River or Bay St. was going from $200-$250/nt. Figure at least that for St. Patty's Day...probably more. Staying out by the airport is cheaper, but not as fun. Can be walked in a drunken stupor, but I wouldn't recommend it. Staying in the middle of the party allows you and your buds to come and go as you please. I've had a St. Patty's day cut short because we were with the girlfriend's friend who can't hang and she needs to get back to the hotel to crash and doesn't feel safe by herself. Started drinking at 10am and she's down for the count by 8pm. C'mon???!!! Waited for the girls to pass out and we headed back out. That was 6 years ago and I still catch stojan for it. I'm not a huge fan of tours, but outside of St. Patty's activities I'd recommend a haunted pub crawl. Good way to find out of the way places to grab a drink. You'd be amazed at the number of bars/pubs/restaraunts that are in old homes and buildings. Without the pub crawl, I wouldn't have even realized they were there. What else....Moon River is a decent microbrewery and just don't hit the bars on River St. There's a few good Irish, Speakeasy (Crystal Beer Parlor on Jones St.) and Colonial style (Six Pence on Bull St.) pubs a few blocks off. Grab a sandwich at B.Matthew's Bakery/Eatery on E. Bay. They have some kind of sandwich made from black-eyed peas or chick peas (can't remember) that is fantastic. This coming from a guy who has to have meat with every meal.

We've got a big production plant right in Tempe, so when I'm there I stay at the Courtyard in the middle of downtown Tempe. Man the talent walking around there ...[shudder]

It just never gets old.

Looks like a Yak...hard to tell. I believe the 55's are the most popular version and the 50's are pretty rare. 52's are trainers.

Looking at those mug shots all I could think of was the crack ho in Boyz in the Hood. "You got any rock? I'll suck yo d!@#."

Strategically talented young people?

Massage without permit? No happy ending? Man, that's a don't do meth/crack poster if I've ever seen one.

Geez, between him and Bennie they better reinforce the drainage system under the field.

Assuming the walking on ice thing could be true. What does that say about the apostles, being duped like that? Also, Does that mean Gretzky is part of the Holy Trinity?

C'mon, we all have a hooker and a gun story. Right?

Has anyone spotted Jules Winfield in the Vegas vicinity. "Im a mushroom cloud layin' mutherf'er, mutherf'er."

McKinney is a running joke down here in GA, even on sports talk. How ahe manages to get re-elected over and over speaks volume about the status of our gov't.

Read some of the comments below the story. "What you do in the dark, shall come to the light."???? Who the hell talks like that.

You sound like a glass half-full kind of guy

I agree, wear it like a badge of honor. It's easy to be a fan of the flavor of the month. Also, I have nothing against Pittsburgh, but their fans are by far the most annoying at the bar I go to watch Bills games here in SW Atlanta area. They might think about importing some outsiders to widen the gene pool.

This just in. Charlie Casserly is an idiot. Don't expect him to do anything that makes sense for his team.

In our youth hockey league down here, a single player is only allowed to score a maximum of 3 goals a game. Anything after that is not counted. It supposed to encourage more team play, but the rule applies all the way up to the 17u league. Freakin communists.

May I recommend the Hostess Plan.

Rumor has it. However I don't want to test the theory.

I tried to like the Leafs, I really did. Still the best uniforms in the league in my opinion. Obnoxious Leaf fans ruined it for me when I was a kid at a game at the Aud. It's my theory that there is quality Leaf fans (present company included) but we get the dregs of Leaf society, who slum it down to Buffalo.

Steinlager rocks!!! Can finally get it here in Atlanta. Errr... I'm a Procurement Management/Project Engineer for a large Atlanta based soft drink company that shall go nameless.

mcjeff, going to the game Monday? Huge contingent of Sabres last time. Unfortunately I'll be out of town and had to pass my tickets along...to Sabres fans of course.

You had me at hello. Damn I hate the Leafs.

To-may-to...To-mah-to. Thanks for pointing out my inability to spell McCown correctly. I hope the Lions signed the right guy.

That's too bad. I wouldn't have mind McNown in a Bills uni. He's always struck me as a gamer.
