A reminder that voting ends tomorrow on the Elite Eight. Right now, Texas-OU has a substantial lead over Shopping, and High School Football is beating Dirk Nowitzki. But the other two matchups are essentially tied: State Fair of Texas vs. Snuffer’s Cheddar Fries and Greenville Ave. St. Pat’s Parade vs. The Ticket. Remember, you can’t complain if you don’t vote.

    Tip o’ the hat, El Rey. Fixed.

    We should have a frontbuner State Fair day this year. Everyone who votes for TSF, can meet at the 6 ticket beer stand. Bethany-I’ll wear nasty shoes, so you have a place to throw up. SWEET!

  • Bethany @ June 26th, 2008 at 3:21 pm

    You’d wear nice shoes to the fair?

  • James @ June 26th, 2008 at 3:25 pm

    Shoes say a lot about a man. I wear nice shoes everywhere..just won’t be in your presence. If you’ll remember that why we broke up the first time.

    I’m not a cat. I don’t barf all the time. Gosh.

  • James @ June 26th, 2008 at 3:31 pm

    Cats suck.

    and thus, a romance dies…

  • Daniel @ June 26th, 2008 at 4:42 pm

    That was quick, too, and yet almost unbearably poignant.

    Bethany and James’ romance? Call it Sundays in Fair Park with Beckett.

    i’ve voted (early and often) and plan to continue to complain about stupid effin cheese fries making it this far

    so here goes: i cannot believe stupid effin cheese fries made it this far

    and all this talk of pointy shoes is making me pointy

  • Bethany @ June 26th, 2008 at 4:51 pm

    LOL jrp

    I agree about the cheese fries. I’m making it my personal mission to make sure the fair beats them.

  • Tom @ June 26th, 2008 at 5:23 pm

    Cheese fries are good, but not as unique as the fair. Other cities can boast of cheese fries, but there’s only one State Fair of Texas. So it should (and will) win.

    Stay Hard Dallas and have Good and Get Give when you listen to America’s favorite radio station - The Ticket!

  • eric @ June 27th, 2008 at 8:35 am

    stay hard with the ticket!

  • Neil @ June 27th, 2008 at 9:11 am

    Actually, according to the late George Carlin, you can only complain if you don’t vote.

    Dirk always folds in the playoffs.

  • John @ June 28th, 2008 at 6:33 am

    Yeah, in 87 career playoff games “der Gimpel” only averages 25.3 ppg and 11.1 rpg. Obviously he sucks. He folds. He’d make a great household cleaning device, just don’t call him a basketball player. Trade him for Robert Traylor, immediately. Not now. Yesterday.

    Either that, or maybe Mike’s parents didn’t exactly bless him genetically….

  • Berk @ June 30th, 2008 at 4:21 pm

    How about dumbest magazine in Dallas? D Magazine has my vote.

  • James @ July 14th, 2008 at 3:13 pm

    What is the update on this? Did it stop at 8??
