Across America HAWAII: Teddy’s Bigger Burgers

Teddy's Bigger BurgersAssociatedcontent.com- Teddy’s Bigger Burgers is located at 134 Kapahulu Avenue in Waikiki. They also have locations in Kailua and Hawaii Kai. But the Waikiki location is right near the beach, as convenient as it gets in Honolulu. There, you can choose between a big burger, a bigger burger, and the biggest burger. All of them are large and delicious, due in part to Teddy’s special sauce. Teddy’s Bigger Burgers also offers crispy french fries, which you will not want to miss. To drink, I highly recommend their thick, rich and sweet shakes. Okay, so Teddy’s Bigger Burgers isn’t the ideal place to eat if you are on a diet, or if you have high cholesterol. But keep in mind you can swim it off in the azure blue Pacific right after lunch.  And if this doesn’t tickle your fancy, you can always play Motorcycle Tycoon 2.

Buns of the Day: Capri Anderson

Buns of the Day- Capri AndersonStopthehype.com- Capri Anderson, identified as the petrified porn star found cowering inside Charlie Sheen’s suite at The Plaza during his drug-induced meltdown wants the bad boy star to pay up in court for destroying her new designer handbag and unpaid escort fee.

Anderson intends to file a lawsuit against Sheen, claiming she felt her life was in danger during the alleged cocaine induced rampage, TMZ reported on Saturday.

After a night of heavy drinking and cocaine, Sheen allegedly went on a rampage Tuesday looking for his wallet and cell phone inside the posh hotel suite.

Anderson, 22, cowered in the suite’s bathroom as the naked actor reportedly ranted incoherently while destroying hotel furniture.

HELP!

Burger Bowl Week 9: The Hooneymoon is Over

hot-USC-cheerleaderspcc3

BurgerBets is back!  OK so I took a 3 week hiatus.  OK so I am not doing so hot this year.  That just means I am due.  Plus the only reason I was stinking up the joint is because I was too excited for the Burger Boy’s wedding.  Just to update those of you that missed it, the Burger Boy is married and LobstersClaw not only attended, but he didn’t piss or shit himself this time.  I was told that he received a legitimately gracious “Thank You” from Mrs. Burger Boy after the wedding.  I am not lying about any of this.  So just remember, whether you are in the betting slump from hell or are just sitting at work on a Monday with weekend anxiety, at least you aren’t getting congratulated left and right for not shitting yourself at a formal event.   Because that is truly the bottom. 

NCAA Picks:

MICHIGAN STATE (-25) vs. Minnesota.  Michigan State got their asses kicked last week plain and simple.  Maybe they were a little overrated going into that game, but they are a very good team regardless.  They are going to be looking for payback this week at home against the itty bitty wittle feeble golden gophers from minnesota.   Notice I didn’t capitalize anything in their name.  That is because they suck.  It’s going to be a Sparty Party in East Lansing on Saturday!  BLOW OUT CITY BABY!

ALABAMA (-6.5) vs LSU.  Love this game a 6.5, not so much if it goes to 7 and beyond.  I am nearly certain that Bama controls the game and wins steadily, but I could see them winning by 7 at the worst.  Buy the half point if it goes to 7 (if you’re a puss) and cash in. 

USC (-5.5) vs. Arizona State.  What a disastrous season for the Trojans, huh?  I have bet against them all year, but eventually, you get to a nut up.  Gut check time for USC, and ASU in Troy is a pretty good place to start.

NFL Picks:

ATLANTA (-8.5) vs Tampa Bay.  BurgerBets is alllll over this one.  I actually am a Tampa Bay believer.  I think they are on their way to being a good team and I love Freeman and Mike Williams.  But this is a CLASSIC reality check game.  Atlanta is coming off the bye with Michael Turner at full strength against TB’s porous run defense.  Meanwhile, the Bucs have been sneaking by teams left and right.  Atlanta is going to roll in this game guaranteed.  Iron Fist.  34-13 Falcons. 

SEATTLE (+7) vs NY Giants.   Is there a more Jekyl and Hyde team in the history of sports than Seattle when it comes to the playing at home versus playing on the road?  They can beat anyone at home, or at least make it a tight game.  And they get their butts kicked on the road by the Little Sisters of the Poor.  Well, lucky for us, this game is in Seattle and it’s a big one.  I think Giants will probably win, but it’s going to be a close one. 

PHILADELPHIA (-3) vs Indianapolis.  At first glance, this line stinks like a Vegas special.  All the money on this game will be on the Colts, that is for sure.  You know what that means… bet the Birds.  Why are the Eagles favored?  Is Vegas dumb?  Probably not.  They are favored because Andy Reid is 11-0 after the bye week in his career.  There is something to be said for that.  He is a fat turd that cannot make an in game adjustment to save his life.  But give him 2 weeks of preparation time and he can scheme an entire game plan.  Plus he probably LOVES burgers. 

As always, bet with me and your burgers are FREE!!!!!

Across America- Cottage Bar and Grill Grand Rapids, MI

Cottage Bar and RestaurantUsatoday.com- A meat cleaver door handle opens to the Cottage Bar and Restaurant, an 83-year-old Grand Rapids institution that crafts old-school hamburgers. Despite the lip-smacking virtues of the specialty burgers — Traverse City cherry, Alaskan salmon, Tijuana guacamole — the Cottage Burger, nestled in a rye bun and dripping with American and Swiss cheese, chopped olives, lettuce, tomato and hand-crafted smoky mayonnaise, is the showstopper.
