OT-What are you drinking for tonight's game?

Just a nice fountain Dr. Pepper for me. I just want Purdue to win then the real celebration will begin :)
 
Just a fun thread, What are you going to drink for tonight's game?! I always enjoy hearing everyone's choice of beverage. This can range from a glass of tea to your favorite beer. I don't care.

I'll start it off, I was gifted a bottle of Booker's Rye and it hasn't been opened, I will be drinking it neat for the entirety of the game.

I'm not superstitious, but was thinking Jack did the Boilers well the last time or maybe it was Makers Mark or was that Chivas? Course I remember walking to Mackey this winter with a little frog in my throat that needed a fireball to help cleanse. I think it is Jack...that sounds more harda$$. Purdue needs to take the attitude that Kansas must break every bone in each Purdue players body to score. I want an alter boy on offense that reads and reacts accordingly and never gets flustered, being aggressive, but under control...and I want a fricking prick on D, but under control. Purdue can win with a Pit Bull attitude...Kansas will win if they trot around with style. Jekyll on O and Hyde on D! Divide the game into 8 five minute battles. Play smart, play hard and understand that if you are not exhausted with 8 minutes to go, you held back...you let another go for the board...you were not prepared to catch the ball prior to receiving it...you assumed the ref would call the ball that went out of bounds in your favor when just a little energy would have gathered it...you saw the screen coming your way, but you waited for it to get there. I know this...I've never seen a winner that was tired, but have seen losers tired...

Yeah, I'll start with Jack and try not to scare Kim with my intensity...and interestingly enough...she has her intense times as well. Pulling for the kids...pulling for Biggie that whatever happens, no player leaves the court thinking they could have done more... played harder and/or played smarter!

“I firmly believe that any man’s finest hour, the greatest fulfillment of all that he holds dear, is the moment when he has worked his heart out in a good cause and lies exhausted on the field of battle, victorious.”

Amen brother. A pit bull is beyond loyal.....and you have to kill every hair on its body to defeat it! I said this morning, if your shot is off......then at least walk off the floor knowing you just played the best defense of your life. There is no tomorrow. Hammer Down!!

Schlaffly Grapefruit IPA. I'm Missouri born. It's a St. Louis brew and we all know what Missourians think of the state of Kansas, so I've got that going for me.:cool:

I'm partial to Dobes and know Pit's get a bad rep. Like the gun...it is the owner that is the problem. Purdue grad and vet talked about how may pits were so gentle he worked on that had been shot due to people being scared. Patton had a Pit and his dog never frightened anyone. Been around a couple that were very gentle, very strong. Better owners are needed for them because that is teh problem. Now back to bball... :)
 
a Pepsi max, followed by a caffeine free diet Mt Dew in the second half, with some kettle chips. I know, I'm kind of on the wild side ! I'm trying to change from my usual losing tradition of Mellow Yellow and Coke. and I have a 99% losing percentage. Every team I predict to win loses. So I'll be rooting for Kansas.

I'm starting with a Hop-Slam as well. Forgot I had some of those cold already. :D

Dakota Girl, how is the Schlaffly grapefruit, say compared to Ballast Point's Grapefruit Sculpin? I really like the Tasmanian IPA.

Okay you win. I left work early. Three documents wide open on my desk but I couldn't take it any more. Hell I'm looking at trying all these yummy drinks. I blame you all for this. Pushers:)

GO BOILERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Normally I drink Zombie Dust during Purdue games I watch on tv, but unfortunately tonight it will be water since I'm temporarily on medications which preclude alcohol.

Just picked up a case of ZD so I'll drink a couple for you (Boilers have to help each other out) and then wash it down with a Dreadnaught or an Artic Panzer Wolf.

Where do you buy cases?! I can get a sixer if I show up on delivery day.

They are a loaded gun in the wrong hands. Rule number one..........never trust a bulldog. Too popular now, and everyone thinks they can handle one............big mistake. You can not "train" years and years of fighting out of them..........it is who they are. But people insist on trying to change them with no respect to their heritage. Alot of the working breeds have been ruined this way. I have owned them for 20+ years and know what they are capable of. Some of the "pit bulls" being bred today are a mess.........damn shame actually. "Bullies" are nothing more than a breed ruined by a bunch of punks and money..........they are not true pit bulls. The APBT is a dying breed........have to know where to get one nowadays. True American Pit Bull Terriers have a history to them second to none........and their owners know the pedigrees inside and out. They will talk you to sleep about these dogs LOL!! I love these dogs, and wouldn't hesitate to give my left nut for them.........they would do the same for me. Loyalty.

For D A Y: I buy at the 3 Floyd's carryout kiosk in Munster. Generally a line on the days they have Zombie Dust, but you can usually come away with multiple cases on the days they have it in stock.
For 2Dreadnaught: thanks and enjoy the ZD!

The only way I am having two is if we are getting crushed by half time. The over/under is set at 4.
Lately I have drank more when we are ahead. We seem to like to make those games as exciting as possible..stressful also.
 
I'm drinking champagne ! - I have a good feeling about this one. I think we could match up better than most anticipate
