Matchup 11, R1: cupie vs BrianHarvey'sMustache

5 THINGS FROM/ABOUT BRYANHARVEY’SMOUSTACHE

• HIS FIRST ANGEL GAME ENDED IN JACK HOWELL POPPING UP WITH RUNNERS IN SCORING POSITION. ANGELS LOST.

• WHEN ANGELS LOST VS. THE SKANKS IN 2009, HE WAS LIVING IN NYC. THE FOLLOWING DAY HE WORE HIS ANGEL HAT ON HIS 45 MIN SUBWAY RIDE LOUD AND PROUD DESPITE THE ELIMINATION.

• HE BELIEVES THAT A FUNDAMENTAL PART OF BEING AN ANGEL FAN IS ACCEPTING/REMEMBERING/EMBRACING LOSING/THE LOSING YEARS. THIS MAKES WINNING ALL THAT MUCH MORE ENJOYABLE AND BUILDS CHARACTER. WITHOUT LOSING, WINNING MEANS NOTHING.

• HE BELIEVED FOR A LONG TIME THAT DOV AND PHISLAMMA WERE ACTUALLY THE SAME PERSON: USC, FRAT BOY DROP OUT WHO BECAME A SUDDEN RECONIZABLE AND POPULAR PERSONALITY ON HH BECAUSE THEIR FATHER’S CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP IN THE VALLEY WENT OUT OF BUSINESS AND THEY SUDDENLY FOUND THEMSELVES WITH WAY TOO MUCH TIME ON THEIR HANDS AND A PENCHANT FOR STUPID MEMES.

• IF YOU DON’T THROW A MEAN FASTBALL WELL OVER 95 MPH, THEY YOU SHOULD BE A CLOSER (HERE’S LOOKING AT YOU BRIAN FUENTES)

That aside, Cupie makes awesome t-shirts and his musical acumen makes Rev’s art video series watchable ( just kidding, Rev…great work). But I too was in NY for the 2009 debacle, and I too wore my hat proudly (well, most of me anyway…I had one foot in the grave…or the toxic waste bin, or somewhere). On that basis (as well as the fact hat BHM is a loyal game thread blogger), I cast my vote for him. May the vote bot have mercy on my soul.

I feel like me and Cupie got some shit treatment here. After all the effort you put into those other posts and you can’t even put my email in the body of the post?

C’MON.

Articlulate SOB

The man holds the leash on the Panther.

I play his spotify mixes so often i think that me and neil youg owe HIM back royalties.

Chompo is Cupie’s older brother

weve up

Dude is a legend around here.

cupie is panther

sorry, no other choice here

so what ever

In case it is decided to replace Tizzle with someone more active, I can’t recommend higher than Britain and HH’s own The Limey.

This isn’t because he wrote such of an epic defense of my own candicacy, it’s because he’s a truly great, hilarious, well-informed and frequent poster. You can almost always bet the Limey’s posts are worth your two cents worth. He gave us the unforgettable compilation of all the Things GA is Too Lazy To Do.

He’s also a truly charming and funny gent in person, too — one of the only HHers I’ve met in person. He couples his wry English accent and humor with having spent his formative years in Yorba Linda, and he knows his stuff. Add to that he manages to follow the Angels and comment on them better than most of those who live 7000 miles closer, and pays a heap of money to watch as many games on TV, the net, or in person.

Not saying who I voted for in this contest, cuz both guys are tops.

I say Go Limey, though there are also other worthy of consideration…

Suddenly the entire flight crews gets hit with food poisoning they caught from the unlimited shrimp feast at the Red Lobster outside Gate 24, where they dined together just before takeoff.

While the flight attendants scramble to calm the 240 members of the Yemeni Marching Band, fresh from their appearance in the Rose Parade, one man calmly walks through the chaos toward the front of the plane with a smile on his face. After pausing briefly in the galley to grab a pair of beers, he climbs into the flight deck and slides into the captain’s chair. Leaving the systems on auto pilot he radios in a may day and requests immediate diversion to Iceland.

Using instructions from ground control, he is able to manipulate the auto pilot to land the plane brutally, but safely, in Reykjavík. Amidst all the confusion of emergency vehicles and personnel, and passenger evacuations, our man has disappeared. It is only later that we find out why Iceland. Our man is found lounging in the spa at The Hotel Ranga, beneath the Northern Lights and with the glow of active volcanoes off in the distance. He is sharing the hot tub with the visiting Swedish women’s cross country ski team. And more beer.

Now I ask you, which HH’er is more likely to be our man? BHM or cupie?

Based on the calm background role he commands here at HH, I gotta vote cupie.

I’m DeWayne Buice, and I approve this mustache.

as he is the reigning champion of the Pre-Game Picks. Also a HR would not be complete in the game threads without him. ************************44FAN!*********************************

We wouldn’t have the Panther without him. And without the Panther, philosophically we have no HH.
