Wedding Crashers

My boy Mike O'Connor continues to pitch well for the Nationals. He has not given up more than 3 runs in any start this year. Pretty awesome. His record stands at 2-3 and he has an ERA of 3.00. That is how you keep yourself in the bigs. View knowledge here:

Below is FunnyDanny's helpful guide to huge weddings in Atlanta when one of your best friends that you've known since you were 5 gets married.

1) It will be 1000 degrees when you stand in your suit and white dinner jacket at the front of the church during the wedding. You will drip sweat off your fingers and glisten for the entire group assembled. I am asking for the start of a movement. I've had enough of this. Memorandum to all churches and weddings: Jack up the AC so that men don't die. Even dudes that weren't under the spotlight were sweating profusely. Place a little sentence on every RSVP card: "Attention ladies, bring a wrap as the temperature in the church is going to be cool...like movie theater in the 80s cool so that the dudes don't sweat through their clothes and feel uncomfortable for the rest of the night."

2) Why is #1 a big deal? here's why: I almost fainted. I was up there, under the heat lamps with 1000 blow torches in my tux, pouring sweat. The priest was in the midst of several prayers. After one particular amen, I raised my head thinking he was done. As I lifted my head, I saw those little black stars you see when you get up to fast or have been hit in the head, my knees buckled, and I took a half step back. I caught myself and hit a bridesmaid's shoulder. 'That's how I pray' I told her later.

3) You will eat some of the most wondrous food throughout the weekend. Everything will be fried and be extremely tasty. You will feel like a sloth upon completion of the weekend.

4) You will be drunk for 3 straight nights

5) You will get a funny sunburn pattern on your face

6) Everyone will compliment you about the job you did as the emcee of the toasts and speeches (speeches, happy now JL you spell-checking ba$tard). You will have done a good job and are worthy of their praise. You will begin to brainstorm about the possibilities of turning this into a business. You will realize its not really possible, but a nice idea.

7) Your roommate on the trip will be one of your best friends in from LA. He will at one point debate going out in a pony tail. You will do your best to remain calm...

8) You will have an absurd after party in the hotel bar where the bartender will speak little to no english and take an eternity to fill drink orders but you won't care because you are drunk and mirthful.

9) All of your boys will make the trip and be part of filth.

10) A circle will form around you. You will be called upon to dance. You will do so because you are a dancer. Others will join. Your boy will do the worm...picture it...yesssssss.

11) You will hope that said display was videotaped and that you are able to acquire it.

12) On the way home in the car, you will analyze ever aspect of the wedding. You will realize that it was incredibly mirthful on such a large scale. Your friend Lucie will ride in the back seat and not participate for the majority of the car ride.

13) You will have soreness and not be able to explain the cause.

14) You'll be broke and Rory will have to pay for your lunch today.

Congratulations Michel and Steele! We all had an amazing time.
