Game 4 - The Huettenbar
In an effort to further destroy our wallets and livers, game four will be viewed at The Huettenbar, where Sam and I frequent (and that's putting it very mildly). It is a fine establishment in the heart of Lincoln Square, 4721 N. Lincoln to be precise, just steps from the Western brown line stop. Parking is ample but metered (don't drink and drive kids!). The Huettenbar even won the 2008 Business of The Year award from the Lincoln Square chamber of commerce, in spite of our presence. There is only fine, high octane German beer on tap, so don't make any plans for Thursday morning if you're going to indulge. Additionally, the bartender, Adam, is one of the funniest sunsabitches you will ever run across, and has long been a supporter (and sometimes salesmen) of the Committed Indian.
It should be noted, too, that in this particular representation of us, Killion wishes to be designated as Ice Cube's character Chief Elgin, and will likely call for a "Ring of Jesus Fire" in the name of Marty as a result.

Ugh
9pm gametime weds. Lots of beer. 7am work thurs. But only a 5 min ride on the western express bus. You guys are really making it tough on me
You're not alone
But this is the price we pay. Did any of us ever really have a choice in the matter?
True
And I’m not growing a beard to stay at home
Kane not sick?
Did anyone catch Mark Giangreco on ESPN Radio today? A friend of mine just called and on the air he said he supposedly got a text from someone in the know that said Kane is fine and that Q sat him down to teach him a lesson and start playing some hockey… I believe that would be the second time this season if true.
Love to come on out, but
I have tickets to the Cubs game. Given the start time, I’ll be watching the second and third from Wrigleyville.
Please do not take this, however, as a snub of the crew. Whirlaway last night was AWESOME.
WAIT FOR THE WHISTLE!

Looking forward to tonight
I’m actually going to head over right after work and grab a bite to eat first. Any recommendations on a good place to grab dinner around there?

sit down
I’ll have some time to kill, so a sit down place would be great. The 9:00 start time is killing me.

Garcia’s, just up the block toward Lawrence, is great sit down Mexican, and you get a TON of food, for a very reasonable price. I recommend the enchiladas verdes.
There are 3 different (Rosded, Spoon, Opart) Thai places within walking distance, as well as The Grafton for a fantastic burger.
Chicago Brauhaus?
I appreciate all the suggestions. A co-worker mentioned that this place is right next door but has never been. Has anyone ever been to this place? Any good?

All the encased meat you can handle
It’s good, but it’s a little over priced, and very touristy. And you’ll have to listen to the Oompa band while you dine.
Next round
or, if necessary, game 6, I can make one of these.
Unfortunately, this will have to be another sober night of playoff hockey for me because of a big presentation tomorrow.
Got more soul than a sock with a hole.
