A Duke tee shirt? Really? Did he have to wear a Duke tee shirt?

@Doug Lee

Shoot. Dook? I thought it was “Dewk”. I thought we had a pronunciation guide around here or something.

Doug

Dook is a misspelling. It is “dook”, no capital D.

A Burgundy vigneron wearing an A&M cap and a OU shirt … that’s ONE, TWO, THREE STRIKES YOU’RE OUT!!!

What is with your pathological need to take every single opportunity to say something negative about france/burgundy? Did a Frenchman steal your woman or something?

You’re so right Berry. Burgundy is too profound to poke fun at!

Note Berry that he never answered your question. Maybe some Burgundy producer stole his girlfriend. I never understood the comments about Burgundy, but now you have pieced them together for me and it makes sense. Give us the scoop, Mike. Who was she?

Sorry if it offends!

Doesn’t offend me. I only get butthurt on the Internet when people bad mouth JRR Tolkien or his works. Childish, I know.

But I am genuinely curious. Is a politically conservative anti-French thing?

(Ironically, Tolkien was not a big fan of the French and especially not their food)

@M. Dildine

Think of the positive side. Maybe my nits will turn price perception in Burgundy and I’ll save you a few pennies!

Unfortunately one curmudgeon can’t offset all the label chasers

the hobbit sucks!!!

@Charlie Fu

the hobbit sucks!!!

No, it is an enchanting tale that weaves JRR Tolkien’s work as a philologist with timeless fairy tale and mythological motifs…God damn it, Im so pissed off I cant go on.

Barry – I’d say it’s time to go have a glass of Burgundy to spite Mike.

What did Mike say that was negative about Burgundy in this thread? We were just following suit in some very light banter about college rivalries. His quip was about OU and Texas A&M, not Burgundy.

2nd strike A&M cap
3rd OU shirt.

@Howard Cooper

Nah. He didn’t actually go to dook, he is a very nice guy and he makes excellent wines that are very good values. Plus, he called one of his tractors a double-wide - who can not like that.

Howard, you are too kind. I was ready to side with Nathan.
(dook–GEEZ!)

My brother did a semester there to get stuff he needed for his degree but he did wear Carolina Blue all the time.

[jflegler]

OU fan here that loves Dublere Volnays…excellent, terroir driven wines that also provide great value

I might pop one tonight and watch a replay of the 63-21 hammering of UT last fall!

I believe it is the longstanding practice of Mike to post anti-French comments whenever the opportunity presents itself that was the real reason for Berry’s question.

Mike has not commented since this.

Howard, I wish I had a touching, gut-wrenching tale to tell. Alas, the only thing Burgundy has taken from me is my money!

Don’t buy anymore and ship me any you have that you don’t want.

Mike going after France is a little dated, but I never get tired of Berry going off on it. You can’t swat flies on the Internet but it’s awfully fun watching people try.

Yeah, I suppose I need a new act, or at least a new twist on an old act (would anyone notice if I insulted Argentina?). But Berry still appreciates me!
