QOTD : Colorado Rockies !

Very interesting show today – liked learning your history

QOTD – Da Bears! still waiting for the same glory and fun that Jim Mc Mahon and Refrigerator Perry brought!

GV – I have been lurking, but decided to chime in with the comments. Even though you ranted for 9 mins prior to tasting, I appreciated that it was about imparting some wisdom regarding the evolvement of Aussie fruit bombs. The personal history just made it more interesting. Loved this show!

Glad you gave the Aussie’s a second look. I enjoy a big fruit bomb every so often.

QOTD: Planned on watching some of the Yankee game on TV–unfortunate rain-out which might also be the case this evening. Miss Torre and his crew, but willing to keep an open mind with Girardi, as you did with the down under wines on today’s show. Had some fun at the WLTV Bash on Saturday.

Hey Gary – great show!! STILL want you to put some of these on the show when they have TEN years on them, minimun, BUT at least your reviews of Aussie stuff were a bit more BALANCED this time. I know all 4 wines and totally agree with your ratings in each case. The boarding pass is exactly the sort of wine that gives Australian Shiraz a bad name, and is – as we like to call it back home – basically “bat’s piss”. Bendigo is one of the areas in central Victoria that is making AWESOME wine now, and along with Heathcote this is the area to watch in the next 10 years or so.
I think you will find in TEN years the Glaetzer will begin to shine, but I sure wish you had – as I have said before – some early-mid 90’s shirazes on the program. THEN you might TRULY get it with these ‘fruit bombs’!!

QOTD: Go Twins!

Good ep GV! Do the pickled green tomatoes suck or are they good? QOTD: BoSox all the way baby!!!

QOTD: I don’t really care about baseball, so I’ll just go with the underdogs. Tampa Bay Devil Rays to win it all – you heard it here first.

Good show! I just wanted say Thanks again for the 29th Party! It was a ton of Fun! My wife and I enjoyed and appreciated every minute of it!
I will send in a wrist band photo soon.

You’re the best GV!

Dodgers and A’s (watched both games last week from Japan at 3AM). Death to the Padres. Baseball is to football what a complex Bordeaux is to a Barossa Shiraz.

Thanks for bringing the THUNDER from Australia! Running out to see if I can find the Mitolo and Water Wheel. I appreciate your words at the beginning, although I have never met a Barossa that I liked.

Loved the EP, been away for a few shows so it was nice to come back to a good!
QOTD: I love the A’s, going way back to the powerhouse team of the 70’s. They were grandparents team (my mom is a SF Giants fan) and the first major league team I ever saw play live – took my Grandma after Gpa passed away. Funny story, Gma sat there the whole game with her score book, marking down the players hits, runs, errors, the whole works! Loved that day and will always have a spot for the A’s in my heart.

If I have to choose, being originally from NY, I would have to say the Yankees.

Great show GV. I enjoyed the intro today. Good discussion. Hey when will we be seeing some videos and pictures from the March 29th event?

GV – Solid show. QOTD – Working! And watching you!

That Mitolo sounds awesome. QOTD: The buccos! going for the record this year (16 straight losing seasons).

Enjoyed the show GV. Looking for the Bravos to return to glory this year although the 0-2 start doesn’t bode well.

Nice episode. Another great Waterwheel wine is their Memsie.
I saw the boarding pass in the store and I almost bought it because it looked cool, glad I didn’t.
Q: Yankees

For the first time in a long time, I actually watched my beloved San Francisco Giants play their season opener. Unfortunately, it went about as well as expected: No Pitching as Barry Zito continues to struggle with being unable to justify his $126M salary AND no hitting – about as much “pop” as some 6-year old T-ballers. Looks like it will be a long year; maybe even a long few years. Buy hey, you can’t be a fair-weather fan!!!!! Go Giants!!!!!

Love those Aussies. My pal went with Boarding Pass over Water Wheel, interesting.
QOTD: Used to love baseball, started out as a Cub’s fan but all the scandals, pumping up, dubious records, outrageous salaries, over the top ballpark prices and disregard for the fans has left me cold for the game. sad.

I’ll admit, I’ve been lurking for a while. But when your QOTD hits that close to home, I had to leave a comment. Just try and remember me when I come looking for suggestions on what to uncork in celebration of the Mariners winning the series.

Great show. I found the Boarding Pass close to the edge of too much, I will try the water wheel.

Opening Day, was Sunday in DC first game, new stadium, Bush threw out first pitch (not as many boos as you might have thought), excting night, even for a Met fan…

It’s got to be the Detroit Tigers!

QOTD: Uumm, we’re still in basketball season. I pick Kansas to win it all!

Good show as I tend to be a Aussie and NZ fan of wines.

Opening day – as usual have to work but am pulling for my beloved Texas Rangers.

Thanks for an awesome show GeeVee … your enthusiasm is infectious – I always want to go straight home and pop something wonderful.

QOTD: I am rooting for whichever team will make you happy enough to offer free shipping!
