I recall the day, I think I was about 23, when my buddy Cleveland (ya, ya, get your Family Guy jokes in) flipped over on his back on a bar and the bartender emptied a quart of Grey Goose Vodka down his throat. Cleveland was at that club at least 4 times a week and the bartenders loved him – god bless his scales and fins, the boy was a fish. They loved him because Cleveland was a fun drunk, not one of these douchebags that starts fights, spills things or goes in on your girlfriend, he just became Cleveland x2, a more enhanced version of himself. He got funnier, danced better and became more engaging. We all were slamming drinks like fish back then, it was liquid courage, the smile enhancer, the fun maker, the cougar panty melter… you get the gist. When I watch shows like Jersey Shore and see the alcohol life… [Read more]

I cannot understand the lust for clubbing and the club life – that is, well I cannot understand the wont for this as a 30-something or worse yet a 40-something. I clubbed A LOT in my twenties, and I sometimes wonder if the possibility of being burnt out can explain my attitude but I can recall one day at 25 years old, I was in a club with friends, walking around drinking, hollering at random uninterested chicks and having an enlightenment of sorts. A kind of out-of-body experience where I looked around, put the mixed drink on the bar and uttered “what the hell am I doing here? This is lame”. Have you felt this way in the Club before? Or maybe it was somewhere else, like church, your girlfriend’s house or at a family member’s place who annoys the hell out of you. Normally that utterance is made because you feel that your time… [Read more]

Written by Ed The Sports Fan from his excellent sports blog edthesportsfan.com. This list of 20 things is only appropriate for the self respecting alpha male who finds the need to posture, pose and stunt a tad childish. Read on and enjoy, I know I did when I saw it reposted on AverageBro.com, it isn’t just funny, it should be common sense. So since Jay-Z came out with “Excuse Me Miss,” The term “Grown and Sexy” has been thrown around more than Karrine Stephens backstage at the BET awards. If you’re throwing a party, it’s for the Grown and Sexy. If you got a car that’s a sedan but not a lowrider or a slab, it’s grown and sexy. You went and bought a shirt that’s not a XXXXXLT white tee, you guessed it, grown and sexy. Grown and Sexy has kind of turned into our generation’s “Whoomp, there it is.” Ironically enough, the most… [Read more]

We all know that Michael Imperioli is gangster, I mean it’s Chris frikkin Moltisanti over here. Cousin and one time heir to the throne of Anthony Soprano. What a surprise it was to see my man as the new face for 1800 Tequila. Below you will find him kicking back, dissing Patron (the new flavor of the month “cool” liquor), and just being himself. The monochrome colors of the ad and the clean suit Michael is wearing reminds me a lot of the Ketel One ads but it all works for the same reasons: It’s macho, it’s for the boys and it seems to be anti-douche (notice Michael doesn’t have a fohawk or an Ed Hardy shirt on). Now this is the type of ad to “Change the Game”.
