Pardon me, would you have any Grey Poupon? ...

What to expect from a press box meal? Burgers? Pizza? How about Outback Steakhouse? How about Outback Steakhouse that doesn't mail it in and serves a kick-ass, totally tasty dinner? Pretty sweet eh? Oh yeah. That what PengoSports thought. Outback has rocked the box all 4 times they have been called on this season. 4/4! Thems Halls-O-Fame numbers! Huzzah Outback!!! Huzzah! No dingos eating your babies on PengoSports' watch. We gots your back.

Most meals in the box are hit and miss. Hell, it's flippin' free so we can't bitch too much, except for the God damn IHOP! PANCAKES!!! You are a house of pancakes, so serve us some PANCAKES! Got it? OK. We will find out on Thursday, and so help me, if there aren't a whole sh*tload of pancakes waiting in the warming tray there will be a pancake related crime spree so huge that it will redefine how pancake related crime sprees are measured. Outback serves steak and chicken, and by God, when they cater, they serve, wait for it, STEAK & CHICKEN!

They even do chicken right! And veggies!
We'll all live an extra day because of those.

Cheese cake everytime! "God loves those who are right!"*
* An awesome quote from 1983 by one Scott Robinson. Who, frustrated after watching the Broncos getting continually jobbed by the refs, saw Denver finally get a break and score. Thus prompting Scott to scream this gem at the TV.

There Was an Optics Festival and I Wasn't Informed?

So the jag-offs at ESPN2, and hell, let's throw in the Australian Football League while we are at it, seemed to have forgot to send out a press release announcing the LIVE Aussie Rules game, Richmond hosting Sydney, on said channel that started Friday at 10:00 pm (remember all times are MDT). PengoSports stumbled on the game just as the 3rd quarter ended and all we could mumble was, "what the fu*k?! There was an optics festival and I wasn't informed?" Oh. And, "SWEET! Aussie Rules on the ESPNs!".

The Optics Festival PengoSports almost missed.
At least PengoSports found the game and watched one massively great 4th quarter. The Tigers, down by 33 points late in the 3rd, fought back to take the game over the Swans, 89-85.

A cracker of a 4th quarter between the Tigers and the Swans


A Richmond player, Andrew Collins, was knocked out cold, had his teammates try to pick him up and get yelled at by the trainers to set him back down, and then the trainers picked him up and helped him stumble, Otis the Drunk style off the pitch. A couple of minutes later he appeared out of no where (the grave?), and caught a mark near the goal and quickly kicking a 6 to put the Tigers in a position to win the game. Quite refreshing after all the soccer handbag antics that we've been watching.

Sleeping. Soon to be awake and scoring goals

Think of all the poor footy fans in this great country missing out on the perfect Independence Day opener because no one bothered to inform them. So a great big PengoSports screw you to the bastards at the ESPN's and AFL (oh there is a live game on next Friday, July 9th, at 10:00 pm on ESPN2. Geelong take on Hawthorn as the push for the finals heats up.).

An angry mob out to get ESPN2 and the AFL

Hey. It's a Dude in a Little Cap.

Why? Why Mr. Tacoma Rainiers reliever man Speigner? Why are you wearing a little cap? Is your head too big for a regular sized one? Did someone play a joke on you and steal your normal one? Or are you just a joker, a raconteur, a silly-man and wanted to "small up" your head wear for the attention? We may never know, but thanks for the pictures.

A ballplayer named Speigner wearing a small cap.

You have to have gone to the finest finishing schools to learn how to keep a cap perched on your head like that.

 Fred Clark did not manage to pull off the little cap look.

While this sassy young lass (though it could be a dude) may have just pulled it off.

Small cap look WIN!  Huzzah! Mr. Speigner!  Huzzah!
