Definitely #2.

Drinking game… take a sip if: Gary rates a wine 85 and the camera zooms to the jersey on the wall, somebody walks down the hall and Gary says hi to them or gives them a wink, and if Gary rates a wine as less than 80 points everyone has to chug a full glass of Boone’s.

Never had a Gigondas….but now I will. They sound really interesting.

But on to the Thunder…..in Oklahoma City there was a lot of debate on the new team name. There was a surge of people wanting it to be Thunderbirds because of our ties to the Air Force team and we have used that name in the past for semi-pro football. I think the owners wanted to compromise to something in the middle…….so there came the Thunder.

And who knows….maybe the owners are closet vayniacs!! I’m just sayin’

Always good when you feature one of the wines we import, and better still when it gets a good review. I can’t work out how the Montirius Gigondas is only twenty dollars for you… but I’ll ask the people who make it, when I send them the link to the episode. Come to Ireland, would you?

Well you did it again. You did a wine type I never heard of and made me want to run out and get some.

Videos: I like #1 a lot â€“ go Iggles! #2 was good but he played it straight (not enough gags). #3 had the bets material.

I vote for #3.

I was a little disappointed in all three videos. I guess I’ve been spoiled by some much better work in earlier video submissions. That said, I’ll give my vote to #1, which I thought was the best spoof of WLTV.
