Dear Coke Talk: On comparing cities.
There’s some crappy movie I can’t recall that nonetheless has a quote that has stuck with me: San Francisco is for people with talent but no ambition. Los Angeles is for people with ambition but no talent. New York is for people with talent AND ambition. Thoughts?
It’s a snarky way for New…

Chicago vs. New York, oh snap, this shit is going down
If you couldn’t already tell I’m not doing my job today at work, here’s further evidence.
In this clip, Tina Fey talks about her early years in comedy working in Chicago, what restaurants she likes on Chicago’s north side, and why she likes Chicago better than New York.
That’s right, people, Tina likes the Midwest better than the East Coast. Suck it, New Yorkers.
Your welcome, Chicagoans.

Hold on, Liza Minnelli was scheduled to perform in Appleton, Wis.?
Gay icon Liza Minnelli cancelled her concert for the October 22 Fox Cities Performing Arts Center in Appleton, Wisconsin today.
The 64-year-old Minnelli has reportedly been diagnosed with bronchial pneumonia and was forced to cancel seven of her upcoming performances.
And while she’s “greatly disappointed” about the whole situation, the former addict Judy Garland’s daughter expects to be back on stage Nov. 20 in Staten Island, N.Y.
Thank God.
Because for every day Liza’s not on stage, a gay cherub loses its wings.
Minnelli’s tour features material from her new CD, “Confessions.”
Deadspin: Two Additional Women Who Worked With Jets Received Lewd Texts From Favre
OMG, you guys!!!!
More women are coming out against #4, saying he sexted them while he was playing for the Jets, too!
Wait…so does this mean Brett Favre is on the fast track to becoming the next Tiger Woods???
OMFG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Awww did Jay Cutler get a boo boo last night?
Or did he get sacked nine times and have to go into the locker room for a good cry to some Radiohead?
![This blog piece from Sheboygan’s B93 radio is hilarious. It’s about the rumor that the Pack are trading A.J. Hawk for Marshawn Lynch. And since I can’t make it much funnier than it already is, I’ll just quote it directly for a while.
“Now the only caveat with with Lynch is he has some character issues. Got suspended last year, assault charges, gun possession, he’s basically a walking Lil’ John [sic] video. But whateves man. Dude can flat out run. And seriously how much trouble can you get into in Green Bay? What is he going to do, hang out at the ShopKo parking lot until 10pm? Just type in ‘Green Bay nightlife’ into google and it will fire back at you with a ‘did you mean Green Bay wildlife.’ So I think he should be in the clear here. That plus you almost had to send out an amber alert to find Hawk in Sunday’s game, and while he has been steady in his tenure in Green Bay, he has been allergic to the big plays he was drafted for while at Ohio State.
Gold. Pure gold.](http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_l9266adhyh1qc8d8mo1_500.jpg)

It’s kinda like the David after Dentist remix.
If Favre’s retirement were anywhere nearly as cool as a little kid getting fucked up on dental-grade narcotics and then having his parents tape it and put it online.
Wis. GOP candidate wins beer stein contest
Because in Wisconsin, it’s really the drinking contests that matter the most.
Former congressman Mark Neumann defeated three other contestants Thursday night in a stein-holding contest in Milwaukee, advancing him to the national competition in New York.
The contest requires competitors to hold a stein full of beer with their arm fully extended. Neumann made it about five minutes, saying he “definitely played to win.”
In fact, [Jenn] Sterger claims that, in one of the photos Favre allegedly sent her, he’s masturbating — while wearing a pair of Crocs.

I love Daniel Tosh.
This is a web redemption for the Crying Giants Fan. I find it humorous.
Oshkosh manufacturer Ron Johnson launched a TV ad last week Wednesday saying the Democratic Feingold was the only Great Lakes senator to vote no on a 2005 bill that would, in part, outlaw oil drilling in the Great Lakes.
But New York’s two senators also voted no. New York is a Great Lakes state, bordering Lakes Erie and Ontario.
Oh SNAP!
The New York Yankees owner always bet against the Packers, if only while wagering with Bud Selig, a friend for almost 40 years. Selig owned the Milwaukee Brewers, once one of the Yankees’ American League rivals, before becoming baseball commissioner.
They had friendly bets on Wisconsin-Ohio State football games (Selig took the Badgers, of course) and on Packers-Buccaneers games. Steinbrenner, an Ohio native who lived in Tampa, always took the Bucs.
“I did pretty well in those,” Selig told MLB Fanhouse.
