Hearing Chris Berman call the U.S. Open
Blog Show XIII Pre-Production Meeting
Every week, the Blog Show crew -- Steinz & Littles & Prada & I -- gets on the phone for a minute to hash out that Friday night's 12 best minutes of Washington Post Live. Such is the case this week, and we've got about 30 topics/blogs for consideration, most of which are included in no particular order down below the video. Speaking of, this is the current front-runner for YouTube of the Week:
Anyway, nothing is over(!) until the cameras stop rolling, so leave comments to let us know which of these links must be included or if you have tips for other stuff we should be considering. Of course, if you don't feel like commenting you can always pepper the Blog Show inbox and we'll make our intern sift through the rubble. Either way ...

I have a write-in candidate: We Are the Postmen's brush with fame:
http://www.wearethepostmen.com/?p=1944
" I have no idea who posted pretending to be me up there, but it’s not. I don’t have a facebook site, never have, so who ever that is, it’s not me. Decent chance he or she will be hearing from someone that knows me rather soon though.

It appears as though I am on the cusp of possibly attaining my lifetime goal of being featured on the BLOG SHOW. Obviously my endorsement is for <b><i>Bad Choice Milk's</b></i> Robocop post since I am indeed the creator. I am also a big fan of the Jeff Reed, Ultimate Kicker series and anything involving wiffleball and consuming adult beverages...
Sincerely,
Shorty

3. Alen Trammel - Robocop - Milk was a Bad Choice
Blog Show drinking game rocks -
The ridiculous Out of Left Field legal situation isn't getting nearly enough play. Blogger gets thrown out of a college baseball game and everybody's on it. But blogger gets sued for TWO MILLION? Granted, here in DC that'll only buy you 1/27 of a pair of pants, but still.
If the Beer Baron is gonna shove a sports blogger around, hoping he can't afford to fight it, the least we could do is push back a little.
