I'm not exactly...Ron, <BR/><BR/>Blondies, Blondies, Blondies! I'm not exactly a bar-hopper (30 and recently married...but we still get out a bit!), but we head up to this place (called Blondies...) on the upper east side quite a bit. It's a haul, since we live in W'burg, but we both work in the city so it's not bad. There are two: Blondies East and Blondies West. Both are home to things like the NYC chapter of the Browns Backers, the OSU Alumni club (I'm an OSU Alum, btw). They're home to other similar groups as well for Michigan State, U of M, Detroit Lions, Penn State, etc. It gets kind of cloudy at times as to where the allegiances are at the two bars, but I can say that Blondies East was like being in a bar in Euclid, Ohio during the recent playoff run! It was pretty cool. Meeting people, finding out you know some of the same people back home, watching the Tribe together. Was pretty cool. A simple google of "Blondies NYC" will get anyone the info they need. I will say, though, that for something big like the OSU/Mich game or if the Browns go to the playoffs (actually any Browns Sunday is like this) you'll need to call and make reservations and say you're there for that particular game. I'll probably head up there for the Browns/Jets game in Dec, but I'm a more passive Browns and Cavs fan.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the link.

That, you can take to the bank.<BR/><BR/>You are right, a decision on Byrd - and Borowski and Fultz - all must happen by a week from today.Ron Vallohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01515792183023966479noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6666431387884521496.post-51634096379927262382007-10-31T05:09:00.000-04:002007-10-31T05:09:00.000-04:00nah - arod wil be a dodger - or "yankee west" wit...nah - arod wil be a dodger - or "yankee west" with torre, posada, and rivera <BR/><BR/>when do indains need a bird decision -isnt it in 10 days of world seriesmoosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16173072506719773896noreply@blogger.com
