    Why is the jackass wearing a suit to a game? Is he afraid he won’t be recognized?

  2. Posted by guest | May 26, 2009 at 9:04 AM

    TG: “I bet this Nats bullpen could use a bailout right about now, huh?” (Forced laughter)
    BB: “Sit down, I can’t see…”

  3. Posted by guest | May 26, 2009 at 9:08 AM

    Bernanke does not look amused.

  4. Posted by guest | May 26, 2009 at 9:09 AM

    me and the printing press will get this round

  5. Posted by guest | May 26, 2009 at 9:09 AM

    @1- no time to change?

  6. Posted by guest | May 26, 2009 at 9:12 AM

    Timmy looks like a reeling drunk. Are all those empties behind BB his?

  7. Posted by Investorcluzo | May 26, 2009 at 9:13 AM

    tg: hey guys, doesn’t look like we’ll have to use the tarp tonight – do you like my new shades?
    mrs. g: must you always be so damn corny?
    btw – is it me, or does timmy look like he is carry a few extra lbs? perhaps he doesn’t need the double scoop…

  8. Posted by guest | May 26, 2009 at 9:15 AM

    Two officials, two cups.

  9. Posted by guest | May 26, 2009 at 9:16 AM

    Kick a touchdown!

  10. Posted by guest | May 26, 2009 at 9:17 AM

    cluzo– it’s you…don’t see any extra lbs from here.

  11. Posted by guest | May 26, 2009 at 9:17 AM

    BB: That #23 is cute.
    TG: If you want, I’ll sneak over behind the dugout and see if I can get him to autograph your glove.
    BB: Timmaaaayyy…you da man! Thanks.

    Our economy is in the hands of two guys who eat chocolate ice cream at a baseball game. Mommy…

  13. Posted by guest | May 26, 2009 at 9:19 AM

    @8 FTW!
    Something tells me Maxine Waters is going to be PISSED that they are eating chocolate ice cream. They must be racists!

  14. Posted by guest | May 26, 2009 at 9:20 AM

    @12- if they were drinking beers, I’m sure it’d be “omg! they’re drunk! our economy is doomed!”

  15. Posted by wcburrs87 | May 26, 2009 at 9:22 AM

    @12, the problem isn’t that they are eating the ice cream, it’s that they are at a Nats game in general. I’d rather watch soccer.

  16. Posted by guest | May 26, 2009 at 9:22 AM

    BB: So the shortstop Guzman, Dominican kid, makes $8 million a year.
    TG: $8 million? That’s bullshit. Bet he didn’t even go to an Ivy. Let’s send some TARP funds their way and cap his ass at 250.

  17. Posted by guest | May 26, 2009 at 9:23 AM

    TG: These UAW seats are f*cking SWEET!

  18. Posted by guest | May 26, 2009 at 9:27 AM

    Hey, did you see how much trouble the grounds crew had with the tarp the other night?

  19. Posted by guest | May 26, 2009 at 9:29 AM

    Ben seems to be thinking to himself “God I really really really hate Alan Greenspan”

  20. Posted by guest | May 26, 2009 at 9:29 AM

    TG unholstering his his nickel plated .32 before his sits down. He keeps it in his lap whenever possible.

  21. Posted by guest | May 26, 2009 at 9:30 AM

    TG: I’m going to go buy a round for the entire stadium.
    BB: Where are you going to get that kind of cash?
    Hysterical laughing by both.

  22. Posted by merkin capital partners | May 26, 2009 at 9:31 AM

    bb: i said vanilla you peasant.
    tg: y-y-y-yessir, rightaway sir.

  23. Posted by guest | May 26, 2009 at 9:34 AM

    HAHAH 21 won this shit

  24. Posted by guest | May 26, 2009 at 9:38 AM

    Are you all just ignoring the fact that Timmy is sitting on BB’s lap? Perhaps bouncing?

  25. Posted by guest | May 26, 2009 at 9:47 AM

    must suck having to go to a game and not being able to have even one beer. probably predrank hard or had to sneak in a flask

  26. Posted by guest | May 26, 2009 at 9:54 AM

    Wondering why this guy bought me grape water ice instead of chocolate. Dumbass. I bet I could buy up the empty seats under TARP. Except it would be Baseball Asset Relief Program. BARP. Wait, isn’t that when you burp and barf at the sametime? This water ice is gonna make me do that. Wish I could have a beer….

  27. Posted by guest | May 26, 2009 at 10:04 AM

    Hey Ben, I see Ken Lewis. I’m gonna take him this turd in a cup!

  28. Posted by guest | May 26, 2009 at 10:09 AM

    I didn’t realize Goldman Sachs had tickets to Nationals games.

  30. Posted by guest | May 26, 2009 at 10:16 AM

    a question of etiquette, as i pass, do i give ben the ass or the crotch?

  31. Posted by guest | May 26, 2009 at 10:18 AM

    Ben says GS paid for our seats, which was paid for by the printing press, which is paying for by inflation, for which dumb greenback holders will pay!

  32. Posted by guest | May 26, 2009 at 10:18 AM

    “Y.. M…C… Ayyyyyyy…”

  33. Posted by Killjoy | May 26, 2009 at 10:20 AM

    We’re not wearing the same ties today, but just wait til you see this thong!

  34. Posted by guest | May 26, 2009 at 10:21 AM

    I was actually at this game; as was Stephen Curry. Not sure if that’s related.

  35. Posted by guest | May 26, 2009 at 10:24 AM

    At least they weren’t beating up GM bondholders with baseball bats.

  36. Posted by guest | May 26, 2009 at 10:26 AM

    take me out to the FAIL park….

  37. Posted by guest | May 26, 2009 at 10:34 AM

    Bernanke: “Hey Timmay, I forgot my printing press back at the office, can you get this one for me?”
    Geithner: “Sure Ben, it would be my pleasure. Didn’t you say you were going on a diet/”

  38. Posted by guest | May 26, 2009 at 10:34 AM

    @21–you win.

  39. Posted by guest | May 26, 2009 at 10:40 AM

    Ben, I’m sure it was the Expos

  40. Posted by guest | May 26, 2009 at 10:56 AM

    @21 nails the win!

  41. Posted by guest | May 26, 2009 at 11:07 AM

    @21 wins

  42. Posted by Alderfly | May 26, 2009 at 12:17 PM

    @21 is great, but @16 is a beautiful dream. With all those unsold seats in the new stadium, the Yankees are clearly needing some TARP…

  43. Posted by guest | May 26, 2009 at 12:22 PM

    Better get to your seat quick, the great John Lannon is at bat

    BB: “So which bank do we have to seize to get Lexus Club tix?”
    T-Geit: “I think PNC”
    BB: “I’ll call She-Bair see if there is something she can do…. Tim! You said if I bought you ice cream you’d stop doing the I’m a little tea pot dance!”

  47. Posted by guest | May 26, 2009 at 12:38 PM

    TG: Hey man where did my beer go?
    BB: Dude, what beer? I don’t see any beer.

  48. Posted by guest | May 26, 2009 at 12:52 PM

    @ 44 and @ 45 FTW!!!

  49. Posted by guest | May 26, 2009 at 12:55 PM

    @21 and @30 tie for first place!!!!
    Awesome posts!

  50. Posted by guest | May 26, 2009 at 1:17 PM

    They should send this team to Canada.

  51. Posted by guest | May 26, 2009 at 1:20 PM

    TG: ahhh, sheeet, Obama took my wallet again.

  52. Posted by guest | May 26, 2009 at 1:34 PM

    TG: What’s the score?
    BB: Nothin’,nothin’.
    TG: Who’s winning?
    BB: …The Bears.

  53. Posted by guest | May 26, 2009 at 1:34 PM

    TG: Do you take credit cards?

  54. Posted by guest | May 26, 2009 at 1:41 PM

    TG: Hey, batter, batter, batter…Sa-wwing batterrrrrr.
    TG & BB: Heyyyy, batter, batter, batter…Sa-wwing batterrrrrr.
    TG: He can’t hit, he can’t hit, he can’t hit.
    BB: Do you realise that if we played by
    the rules, right now we’d be in gym?

  55. Posted by guest | May 26, 2009 at 1:47 PM

    43 Dude, first of all it’s LENNON with an E. Second, he never played baseball he was a singer in a 60′s band. Seriously.

    BB: What’d you get Tim?
    TG: The usual, a sausage and two meat balls….

  61. Posted by guest | May 26, 2009 at 3:08 PM

    will they be in Vegas next?

    The 2 boys with all the money are discussing what their contributions will be to the Dartmouth Alumni Fund this year?

  63. Posted by guest | May 26, 2009 at 4:23 PM

    @62- only Geithner and Paulson went to Dartmouth, not Bernanke.

  64. Posted by Anal_yst | May 26, 2009 at 5:10 PM

    Um, Goldman owns a stake in the Yankees (and the entertainment/food company for the Stadium), so actually, yes, the Yankees kinda are getting a TARP (TALF/whatever) bailout.

  65. Posted by guest | May 29, 2009 at 4:53 PM

    “Quick, Bernie… give me a light! I see Hank down in the good seats … this is going to be the best flaming poo gag we’ve ever pulled off!”
