Merry Christmas Eve Mgoblog!
What are you drinking?
What are you cooking?
Any fun traditions?
We do Christmas Eve with my sister and nieces, fill a pinata with candy and cash and let them go to town. Got a prime rib roasting (too cold too much snow to bust out the smoker this year) and the bar stocked.
Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night!

Merry Christmas
JD comin'
Bout 10-15 guys leaving
1119
cheers
December 24th, 2022 at 6:10 PM ^
Well this is a new level of cryptic
December 24th, 2022 at 6:12 PM ^
2/3 I understood but not 1119. LOL. Thanks for the info. Happy Holidays.
December 24th, 2022 at 6:22 PM ^
I think 111-9 is an aggressive score prediction for Michigan to win the fiesta bowl by but I'd love it!
December 24th, 2022 at 6:39 PM ^
Can you share the 2/3 you understood. It’s the season for sharing.
December 24th, 2022 at 6:47 PM ^
JD, the recruit, is coming to michigan
10-15 guys are transferring out or going to the NFL
1119 = the number of days since ohio has beat us in football.
thank you GoJ
December 24th, 2022 at 7:10 PM ^
10-15 “leaving” if that’s total between going pro and portaling then that doesn’t sound too bad. If it includes the 4 already in the portal then it’s even better.
December 25th, 2022 at 1:51 AM ^
No I think he's talking about the tunnel incident
Bout = fight
10-15 guys against our one apiece
1119 days in prison
January 4th, 2023 at 8:41 AM ^
That was days since OSU beat Michigan.
December 24th, 2022 at 6:25 PM ^
What about BU in 25? Any predictions?
December 24th, 2022 at 5:04 PM ^
Chardonnay from a box.
Firing up the Weber on my covered front porch (still cold) to grill some chicken. The 25th also my wife’s birthday. Tomorrow is probably spicy spare ribs in a crockpot.
Traditions: this is the 3rd straight year that our family of 4 has not spent the 24th/25th with our nuclear families, bith of which have become a mess. 2020: New Orleans. 2021: Destin. 2022: icy Grand Rapids.
December 24th, 2022 at 7:38 PM ^
Spicy spare ribs in a crockpot sounds amazing. Care to share any tips?
December 24th, 2022 at 7:47 PM ^
Get the creole spice from your store. Zatarain’s is the staple, but there are other very similar spices. Tomorrow I might add beer.
Drink a ton while they are cooking.
December 24th, 2022 at 5:13 PM ^
Walking out the door to go to my dads for his Christmas, he’s smoking a 6lb beef tenderloin. No idea what he has for brewski’s but I know he has Tincup 10 to drink.
December 24th, 2022 at 6:11 PM ^
Leave extra time if you live in Michigan. The roads are, in a word, fucked.
December 24th, 2022 at 7:38 PM ^
Live in Indiana, roads are passable but not great. Nice warm day today windchill is -8 currently where yesterday it was -38 windchill.
December 24th, 2022 at 10:23 PM ^
Are there any plows or salt trucks in Michigan? They do know winter comes there, right?
December 24th, 2022 at 5:15 PM ^
Have a Merry Christmas!
GO BLUE!
December 24th, 2022 at 5:17 PM ^
Frozen pizza ftw.
December 24th, 2022 at 5:22 PM ^
Traded a sports watch for a gun at a Blues Man's pawn shop earlier today. Dressing as Santa and heading out to the Duke & Duke company party in center city Philly. I've got some unfinished business to take care of there... some Marijuana cigarettes, greenies, and assorted goodies to "share" with the fellow who succeeded me in my job. Might grab some champagne and a little smoked salmon then take the bus to find this busty prostitute I met a few days ago.
You know... The usual.
December 24th, 2022 at 5:40 PM ^
Just remember to pull the fake beard out of the way when you eat the salmon.
December 25th, 2022 at 12:52 AM ^
Looking good Winthorpe!
December 25th, 2022 at 10:40 AM ^
Feeling good.
December 24th, 2022 at 5:27 PM ^
Merry Christmas everyone. Stay safe
December 24th, 2022 at 5:31 PM ^
Merry Christmas to all!
family is from metro Detroit visiting us, heading to a nice dinner tonight, prime rib roast on tap for tomorrow
live by the coast, cool to see the fog roll in.
enjoy yourself and family/friends today.
Go Blue !
December 24th, 2022 at 5:40 PM ^
At home, decided to cancel my trip due to the weather. About to make some spaghetti and drink some coors light.
December 24th, 2022 at 6:13 PM ^
Spaghetti? For sure.
Coors Light? You better believe it.
Together? I just don’t see it. It gives me a strong vomit vibe.
December 24th, 2022 at 8:47 PM ^
Coors is my desert lol.
December 24th, 2022 at 5:41 PM ^
Merry Christmas to all MGoBloggers. Daughters made it home, baking. Prime rib tomorrow also.
Peace be with you. Have a good feeling about New Year's Eve.
December 24th, 2022 at 5:42 PM ^
Merry Christmas!!
Have some split pea soup cooking with the ham bone from earlier in the week. Just baked up some sugar and date cookies because Santa will want a snack tonight. Have some spiced rum for later while the wife drinks wine. No presents to put together tonight - first time in 11 years I don't have stuff to assemble! Will also finish off the pickled bologna the wife got me for my birthday last week. I love that stuff!
Christmas Day will be at the wife's aunt/uncle's place with the FIL. It'll be boring, but they're good people, so... Will smoke a prime rib Monday.
December 24th, 2022 at 5:51 PM ^
Bahama Mamas 🍹 in the Bahamas 🏝️
December 24th, 2022 at 5:57 PM ^
Merry Christmas all!
December 24th, 2022 at 5:58 PM ^
Josephsbrau Winter Ride Double Bock, Shrimp, drinking and massive supraphysiologically long bong hits past the efficacious levels of THC, a hero's dose of shrooms until I pass out.
December 24th, 2022 at 6:04 PM ^
Mother Nature cancelled our family plans, so Mrs. Gate 3 raided the fridge and came up with chicken salad Cordon Bleu: pulled rotisserie chicken wrapped in thin sliced smoked ham and Pinconning cheese. Needless to say she's amazing.
December 24th, 2022 at 6:39 PM ^
Damn. Would have been happy with some freeze dried Taster’s Choice and she comes out with this gourmet shit.
December 24th, 2022 at 6:13 PM ^
I’m in Charleston with my wife, taking in all the wonderful restaurants and drinking establishments:)
had Lincoln straight bourbon for lunch, dinner pour yet to come;)
We are going to Halls steakhouse for dinner, can’t wait.
Traditions? Usually with family in Rogers City, Mi or in Tampa. This year we are trying something new, so far so good!
Merry Christmas and always Go blue!
The Real Bourbon Bros(check out our pod)
December 24th, 2022 at 10:22 PM ^
We are on our way to Charleston tomorrow morning! Three days there and then three in Savannah.
Happy holidays to everyone here on the blog!
December 25th, 2022 at 1:05 PM ^
These comments brought back memories, wife and I spent New Years Eve in Savanah (up the cup!) And also loved our stay in Charleston, can't remember all the restaurants but ate and drank our way through while staying at very nice B and B. Visited both while living in Tampa :♧)
St Augustine is very nice also
December 24th, 2022 at 6:14 PM ^
Merry Christmas all!
We'll be in a yurt in the mountains eating Fondue waiting for the jolly fella to show up!
December 24th, 2022 at 6:15 PM ^
Merry Christmas, MGoBloggers. Y'all make this place what it is -- fantastic.
Anyway.....drinking Labatt Light (maybe some Crown later, shhhhh) and cooking ham and fixings.
Traditions -- Christmas shows, finishing decorating, hanging stockings. And then wrapping later on, while listening to / watching TSO Ghosts of Christmas Eve.
December 24th, 2022 at 6:15 PM ^
Merry Christmas from CT. I made it although not at the scheduled departure time! Having been stuck in Atlanta I can deal with anything. Daughter, son in law, two grandsons, prime rib and scotch. Life is good. Hope everyone had a great Christmas and has a Happy New Year!
December 24th, 2022 at 6:20 PM ^
Merry Christmas everyone.
I'm chugging coffee on my inlaws couch, hoping that a full bladder will help keep me awake for the drive home.
December 24th, 2022 at 6:49 PM ^
a special merry Christmas to you, hatter. hope all is well.
any predictions about 12/31?
December 24th, 2022 at 8:51 PM ^
And to you and your family as well XM. All is merry and bright here.
We're going to beat TCU. And I don't think it will be particularly close.
December 24th, 2022 at 6:28 PM ^
Staying home due to the weather and swapping in frozen pizza for what would have been beef tenderloin. At least I have a fully stocked liquor cabinet and beer fridge.
December 24th, 2022 at 6:36 PM ^
Love you guys. Go blue
December 24th, 2022 at 6:51 PM ^
We're having Philly cheesesteaks, and I have discovered that a Philly Cheesesteak is in the same category as politics and religion at family gatherings. WOW, that was a heated debate and NOBODY here is from Philly. I had no plans of drinking but Captain Morgan's Private Stock is now out. Merry Christmas everyone.
