  • Fox announcers Troy Aikman, Joe Buck and Tim McCarver got U.S. Marshals escorts to games

    A trio of star sportscasters have been riding to big games like heads of state thanks to a government lawyer who arranged escorts by armed U.S. marshals.
    A federal probe found that Fox announcers Troy Aikman, Joe Buck and Tim McCarver have been getting chauffeured to extravaganzas like last year's Super Bowl and the 2007 World Series on the public's dime.

    If you look hard enough you can find all the shit our government waste money on and it will blow your mind how much wasteful spending there is. I can't wait till they get the website up that shows how the bailout money will be spent.

    A) I think this is a waste and someone should get their ass in a sling for it.

    B) To be fair, those 3 have probably paid more taxes than 90% of us put together.

    Can I say this?

    I was Vegas 3 years go for my birthday leaving the Sahara to go the Palms. It was 10 bucks more for a limo than a cab so I sprung for it.

    Dude driving was playing clown porn on the screen. He seemed very intent on getting our reactions to it.

    When OCBF and I fly into Vegas, we don't even bother with trying to get a taxi at the airport. We just go for the limo taxis. Sometimes it is a sharing situation but its just faster, easier, and not much more expensive. Never had porn playing but maybe that is because we catch them at the airport. Might have to try limoing it from one casino to another next time. :tongue2:

    Considering we pay for a large portion of the stadiums these days a few limo rides are a drop in the bucket. Perhaps it's more like the icing on the cake. :ohwell:

    I thought everyone in LA drove to Vegas?

    Nah, not always. It's a 3-4 hour drive (or more)but it's maybe a one hour plane ride. Round trip on Jetblue is hovering around 100 bux with all the fees. Depending on what kind of car you drive you could spend that on gas anyway.

    It can be just more convenient and more comfortable to fly.

    I understand some college girls pile into a car in LA, head to Vegas for a weekend crammed into the Motel Six on the strip, and can make about a thousand bucks each working for the weekend.

    At least, that's what the girl at Olympic Garden told me...or was that Spearmint Rhino? :wink:

    Yeah, it's really common actually, everytime I have rolled into a strip club I have met a girl going to some college out here, a lot of UCI chicks, I guess irvine bitches need moneys for their coke habbit.
