Yep totally admire the office bar on Mad Men. Bad news--->drink, good news---->drink.Originally posted by B.B.d.K.:
Not to sound all Brooksy, but each time I watch Mad Men I feel a slight pang of jealousy for that era...cot damn that looks fun.
Just a Bottle of Scotch on the desk would be enough for me, really.

Pretty much long days turned into longer nights and my grandmother told him to choose between the sauce or Momma. He choose Momma and went dry.

*I've watched the Drew Barker video over and over, I know it's a dead horse, but it doesn't make it any less fascinating. I want a 30 for 30 done on that night, questions need to be answered. I was on the phone with another diehard buddy of mine and we couldn't stop replaying hypotheticals about how it went down like that.
Two guys on the team that can pretty much get anywhere they want off the bounce without picking up the dribble...I'll take it.Originally posted by B.B.d.K.:
Briscoe reminds me of a Jamaal Tinsley type...not super explosive, but can get anywhere he wants with his smooth handle, size, and understanding of the game in general. He's deceptively quick while not being a turbo athlete.
So the way I've tried to rationalize it is that the other two guys wanted to get the touch out of dodge after the bar fight but Barker was trying to hook up at the dorm...they tell him they will go but whatever happens is on him and they aren't down for any other confrontations. Basically, "you're on your own if you drag us in there." ===> "maybe you'll listen next time, brah. Don't forget your hat."Originally posted by drxman1:
Details that have made no sense:
1. WTF were they doing there in the dorm?
Heard reports they went to apologize at first, but no way old boy was out of the hospital by then.
Drew looking for some loving? Said he was there "visiting" a friend. Smarten up kid.
2. WTF did the other two do NOTHING. Pretty much either they don't like Barker and no F's were given, or they are little bitches. Pretty much all there is.
Yeah I could see that, but I don't think that was Baker that handed him his hat. When you watch the video, looks like the other two UK guys are in hats, sort of in the far corner across the desk from Barker. They walk out the door with a dazed Drew while dudes are pointing for them to leave...Originally posted by TheShowKiller:

Kind of the same sympathy my 9 year old gets when I tell her not to run through the house and she does anyway and stumps her toe.
The stories the older attendings used to tell us about life in the hospital back in the day were insane. Like the show Scrubs if you crossed it with Animal House/ Blow/ and Penthouse Forums.Originally posted by TheShowKiller:
On to Bbdk's point about Mad Men and the office culture at that time ===> there has to be something to it, because in every 60's/70's TV show when two guys sit down to talk business, there was always a bar, some crystal glasses and various choices of alcohol. The conversations all took place with each person having a drink of choice, usually straight, in hand. It couldn't just all be TV land fiction, I think it was part of the culture.
Damn you rampant alcoholism, sexual harassment, and technology...
