Danny Says Philly Fans are scary

Danny, Danny, Danny, Philadelphia fans are just enthusiastic and big drinkers. Sometimes the two don't mix. But you can't say all Philly Fans are bad-asses. Most Phillies fans tote their kids on their shoulders and sunscreen in their fanny packs. They good naturedly tease opposing team fans with a smile and teach their children about good sportsmanship. Same with basketball fans. They maybe a little rowdier but not much. There aren't as many kids so there maybe one or two hundred more inebriated fans but for the most part, everyone is dressed to the nines to try and outdo World Be Free or win Men's Warehouse Best Dressed Man Award. Sixers fans are styling. They know how to dress and dance. There's no time for fighting. Now you want to see a fight, go to a hockey game. But the fight will be on the ice between the players 8 out of 10 times. Yes, hockey fans are a bit more physical and a tad on the drunk side, but those few thousand don't represent all the fans. Look at the little babies with the Flyers onsies on. How cute are they! Mom might sport a few tats and throw a beer on some jerk wearing a Rangers jersey but hey, he's got a rangers jersey on so clearly he's starting it. And Eagles fans are artists. They sing after every goal. Who I ask you has time to get nasty. We're singing here. And spelling. We're scholars. E-A-G-L-E-S. Eagles. These are refined people scholarly and full of song. Again opposing team fans who insist on insulting us with their Cowboy and Giants jerseys have "beat me up" written on their farheads, They're masochists and we're benevolent fellow human beings giving them what they asked for. A beat down. And for the record - the Santa Claus we threw the damn snowballs at was a skinny, skanky, drunk imitation of Santa. Forget it NFL will you.... or I swear we're going to drag you out of that booth and,,,. You get my point. We're good people. I'm the G-Meister blogging Bonaduce.

Bob Barker, beloved host for the Price is Right for 5 decades claims trucks deliver hundreds of pigeons into Pennsylvania to drop them into cages where they starve and dehydrate until they are removed to be strapped to a lever on a machine that hurls them into the air for shooters to fire upon.

Most pigeons, He says, are so weak they can barely fly. Many are merely wounded not killed and fall to the ground where they crawl off and die. Those that live are scooped up by children who cut their heads off with scissors or throw them into a crate where they eventually suffocate. 

I don't know about your family but my mother wouldn't let me touch a pigeon let alone give me scissors to cut it's head off. Where in Pa does this take place? The Appalachian Mountains?

How sadistic do you have to be to participate in such a cruel act? I get deer hunting and Pigeons annoy the crap out of me in New York city, but to truck in hundreds of those birds to merely kill them or give it your half ass best try, is deplorable. Of course if they're rounding them up in New York and bringing them down, then I think they may be doing a public service. But more than likely some half bred mountain man is breeding them just for this event. Shame on you.

Animal activists have asked these Pennsylvania gun clubs to use clay pigeons and have even gone so far as to offer to buy them the skeet machines to do so, but they refuse preferring to shoot the real thing.

Currently there are two bills before the House and Senate Committee, House bill 1411 and Senate bill 843. Bob Barker would like to see all Pennsylvanians vote to pass these bills.

As far as the Aflac Duck, I'm with Bonaduce. Enough already!

Leave a comment: How do you feel about Pigeon Shoots? Are they any worse than Turkey Shoots? Is it inhumane to keep pigeons in crowded cages without food or water only to release them to be shot? Are you tired of the Aflac Duck too?

Danny you are crazy like a fox. You're my Yoda. We are simpatico my friend. On Danny's show he does this segment called "Life Strategies" or something like that where people call in and he gives them advice. I think I wrote about it before and thought he was a moron, but this time I have personal experience and couldn't agree with him more.

A woman called in. Her daughter wanted to come home after a 6 month stint at a rehab and the woman's husband was against it. I never found out if he was the daughter's dad. The mother of course being maternal as we all are, wants her daughter to come home. She says she is cured.

I don't know what she was hooked on but it doesn't matter. The term junkie lends itself to certain behavioral expectations regardless of the substance.

Danny said of course she is your daughter let her come home. Then either cut up your credit cards or hide them along with your SS#, driver's license and bank acct info because she will begin to steal from you again. Falling off the wagon is inevitably after only 1 time in a rehab. Takes at least 3 stays to realize you are a junkie and need to quit.

Truer words were never spoken. I would have added but don't even count on it then, Guess it depends on the substance, the person and his or her will to get straight.

Living with an addict is the worst experience one can imagine. Except perhaps being one. The people who love this person are confused angry and eventually done with you. They reach a point where cleaning up after an addict emotionally, physically and financially is beyond exhausting. There's no chance of understanding anything they do while they are under the influence of their addiction and this is the point I think Danny was trying to make.

As a parent I say we have to stick by them and try with all we've got to help them see recovery is the only option for their life to go on and have meaning.

As a wife or husband stay and try to help as long as you can without jeopardizing your sanity and resources. You can't get sucked into the vortex of their chaos and it is an utter chaos of lies, tears, recriminations and more. Step back and walk away if you aren't strong enough.

If you're the girlfriend or  boyfriend of a junkie then just plain RUN. Slip out the back Jack, make a new plan Stan, drop off the key Lee, as Paul Simon would say, and get yourself free. You don't need the aggravation. Plain and simple. Change your number and do not respond to his continuing declarations of need and love.

But this poor mother I could tell as she told her story, believes her daughter is better and will be her old self. Wonder if the mother smokes. Take a smoker's cigarettes away and there's an example of one tenth of the hold the addiction has on her daughter. While she's in rehab she's in a cocoon. It's easy not to smoke when you're sleeping.

Do your best,mom. But like Danny said push her to get a job and get on her own  where as an adult, it's her choice to live life or hide inside a drug. I'm the G-Meister blogging Bonaduce...

Hey Danno we finally agree on something. This morning a mother called or emailed the show and said her daughter tried to kill herself. She used a gun and aimed at her head.... and MISSED!  Now telling people you want to kill yourself is certainly a serious and terrible cry for help please don't misunderstand us. (Danno and me) And I think someone should provide her with the care she need. By the way mom here's where you come in - call a mental health care provider about your daughter not Danny Bonaduce who needs a mental health care provider. K?

But how can you take someone seriously who says they want to die, has a gun puts it against their head supposedly and misses!

Like Danny said, we're all taught how to kill ourselves in childhood. Look both ways before you cross the street or you'll get run over by a car. Don't run with scissors. Don't play on the railroad tracks, Don't put a plastic bag over your head and tape it around your neck. You know the things all parents tell their children.

I do believe all of can empathize with the girl in question. We all want the crap to stop in our lives. All of us have at least one day when we wake up and say I can't do this anymore. But you know what? It takes more courage to get the hell up and do it again then to swallow a bunch of pills or whatever and run permanently away. There's no take backs. No do overs after death. But with life always comes the hope that tomorrow will be better. That tomorrow i can find a solution and suddenly there's that silver lining we're looking for.

Tomorrow someone will love you. Tomorrow you'll get that promotion. Tomorrow is possibility and that's eveything life has to offer. What more can we want? So forget yesterday, live today and build your tomorrows and if Danny has a particularly bad show, remember there's always tomorrow.

Danny Bonaduce has said some pretty weird things during his morning talk show but I think the stupid in the vodka he was "sipping" this morning went straight to his mouth completely bypassing his brain.

Ok Danny, we know you're on drugs too, but that's nothing unusual so what would prompt you to profess that Howard Eskin could beat Payton Manning in a street fight? Howard Eskin is a Leprechaun. Peyton Manning is manalicious with a body built by the gods.

Forget the fact, he's two or three feet taller than Howard, he's a Super Bowl Winning Quarterback! He gets up from under three hundred pound tackles and walks off the field. 

I get you think Howard Eskin  is a dirty rat-bastard fighter who  would bite Peyton where he can reach him, but Peyton would think he was flirting with him and other than freak him out, it would have no effect on him at all.

If it was a debate, maybe Howard would win because he can talk dirt, slinging muddy arrows as fast as his little leprechaun lips will let him.

But an actual physical fight? Even you must admit Danny, Peyton would win. Howard wouldn't even get to take his fur coat off.

What do you think?

Wow, gals this maybe the best kept secret from me ever! Did you know guys when at attention play a game where they see how many towels they can hang on their ah, mast?

First of all, let me say, I'm not at all amazed. Men play so many juvenile, competitive games when together, that comparing the capacity of their swords shouldn't even illicit an eyebrow raise from me, however once again they got me.

Let me also clarify, that by towels I'm sure Danny meant washcloths or at minimum, hand towels, but whose heard of this clever albeit ridiculous game?

Danny apparently has muscles beyond his arms and abs cause 4 towels weighs a good deal. And what do you think about to keep the flag at full mast. Surely not the fact you've got 4 towels on it.

But bravo Danny! Without any outside support 4 towels is impressive. Got any photos?

Danny, Danny ,Danny when are you going to wise up and understand women rule the world. You are on a short lease because your girlfriend clipped that collar on and attached that leash while you were getting busy and you didn't even notice it. Then When finally you came down from that cloud called I found the perfect girl, you noticed the leash and she convinced you, it was your idea.

You say you'll only wear a leash that you decide to wear. Hmmhmm we know, You realize it keeps you out of rehab and jail. Good for you, At least you've scored those points. But Danny dearest, You girl has you on a leash cause that's the only way she can live with you. She probably took a long hard look at you and decided hmm hmm, if I want to be with this clown I'm going to have to hog-tie this one and teach him to walk on a leash.

Some men just need a female beat down. And we don't do that with violence ,Our methods are much more effective.

If Toby McGuire 's wife says he can only go out with Leo DiCaprio twice a week and his curfew is 4 am, then that because while they were dating he was out 5 times a week and sometimes didn't show up for days.

We ladies stroll toward our objectives. And if taming a male shrew turns some women on, then tamed you will be.

You keep thinking it's all you baby.

I heard some numnuts say "I wear the pants in my family but my wife controls the zipper". He wife smiled. Hey numnuts, "Has she let you pull that zipper down and taken those pants off or are you still "wearing" them. ha ha ha

Danny Bonaduce was talking about a sub culture that collects human skulls. Gross. The mummified head of famous spy Mata Hari is missing from the Museum of Anatomy in Paris. It was mummified in 1917 I believe. My question is why? Why would someone, apparently a doctor or taxidermist, think it's a good idea to mummify Mata Hari? Did her family want it to remember her by? Don't think so.

Danny wants the skull of Beethoven so he can take piano lessons and have Beethoven's skull sitting on the piano while he plays. That would so freak me out. And the human Anatomy exhibit touring the country is in Philadelphia right now I think. Nope. Don't want to see posed mummified people.

I'm all for collections though. It seems we all like to collect things. That interests me. Why does one want to gather together objects of the same genre let's say and display them? infact in thinking about it, I have a few collections. True collections not just I have a lot of brouches.

For example my largest and favorite collection is my Cowparade collection. I was in Chicago a few years ago and on the streets downtown they had life size statues of cows built to a specific theme. Think Moocaso and Cappmoochino. I thought they were wild. So creative I was filled with delight each time I saw one. The exhibit was in New York and several other places and artists keep adding new cows to the existing herd. LOL

It wasn't long after that I was in New York in a Rockafella Center store and saw a porcelain replica of one of the larger cows. But of course I bought it. It was my first cow "Broadway Baby" Cowparade cow. $12.95. It's now worth over $100. But that's not really why I collect them. I have over 25 cows. I want a life size one some day.

I also collect Roosters but not so robustly. I inherited a couple from my grandmother and wanting to keep a part of her alive I added to her collection.

Danny Bonaduce was saying during his discussion about collecting human skulls, he buys all things skull and crossbones i.e. all his rings have skulls and crossbones on them. How 10th grade goth of him but to each his own.

Now I'm curious. Metro collects comic books. What do you collect and why? How did you begin? Comment me back. I'm the G-Meister blogging Bonaduce,..

II have issues with Danny Bonaduce who I particularly enjoy listening to on 94.1 in the morning. Why would he defend Michael Jackson while SUCKING UP to the Jackson Five who are on his radio show promoting their reality series. Here's a group of people, an entire family basically who lived off the sweat of their pedophile brother for decades and now that he has gone to Hell, before the flames even get to him, they are using his death to make money. Are there no sane people listening to radio or watching TV? Why, why momma would one person watch that show, and Danny if you're reading this, you're a butt smooching smuck who had the opportunity to show your stuff by telling Joe Jackson or whomever was on the phone with you, that NOBODY has wanted to see them for the last 20 odd years and certainly we can't stomach what they are doing now.

So Michael didn't have his way with you when you were 15. Maybe he wasn't into red heads or you were too old but don't have the utter lack of sense to try and tell Philadelphia, Michael Jackson was a saint. Blatant butt smooching. Further your career without insulting us! And I like you fool.

So that's kind of how it's going to go. I hope I illicit a response from you. That would be way cool. Leave me a comment on Danny Bonaduce. Do you agree with him or me? I'm the G-Meister blogging Danny Bonaduce...

I started listening to Danny a while back when they took Booker off the air. Booker was a whiny wimp but I liked him. Danny is so opposite Booker it's like loving vanilla ice cream your whole life and then one day changing to Ben and Jerry's Cherry Garcia. Different. I thought I would hate him because he reminded me of Stern, to whom I will not listen. And I was right. He was like Stern- crude, outspoken and of opposite opinions that most sane individuals possess. Normally I would like that. Who wants to be normal? But the crude thing got in my way. So I flipped around alot and listened to my Ipod most of the time in the car which is the only time I listen to music pretty much,

Finally I gave up the ghost and went back to listening to Danny and Metro in the morning. Danny is his own worst enemy. I wonder if he is aware of that. I mean its cool to say things to set you apart, in fact it's a talent. But he goes so far he's in his own freaking dimension.

I like his "I do what I want when I want” tough guy outlook but Danny take it down a notch my man. For example, he said this morning he was out last night, drank a bottle of vodka and punched a girl in the face. He was talking to the Guidos from the Jersey shore show. They agreed that was a bitchin night.

No it wasn't. Not even close. First of all, Danny you feel like a run over skunk this morning. You must have had a hangover before you were even sober. You probably look and smell even worse. Lovin' it Metro and the new news girl? Ya I thought so.

Secondly and more importantly, NEVER punch a freakin girl! You're 50 it's not cool! Even if you were 15 it wouldn't be cool. Physical abuse is just wrong. Unless you're duking it out with Mohamed Ali's daughter, you're just wrong dude, That's a message all of us have to stand behind and when you have the ears of young people, that's a message you need to drive home. They aren't listening to their parents right now; They're listening to a-holes like you and those JerseyShore d-bags. So wise up.

Off topic onto the Guidos on your show. Puhlease. Hello! Anyone over 50 listen to Danny besides me? I'm a Jersey girl. We spent many weeks down the Jersey show in the summer and Guidos were to be avoided at all costs.

They came down from Philadelphia, with their short haircuts and Italian accents waving their hands around as they talked and desperately trying to score so they could go home stand on their street corners and brag about all the chicks they scored with. If they didn't get any action, they made it up so you didn't want to be seen with them. Just like at the dances. They could dance, but they were greaseballs . Sometimes good-looking, always dumb as dirt. In other words being a "Guido" is a bad thing.. Am I right or am I right (A Guido expression).

My poor misinformed daughter thinks being a Guido is cool. OMG shoot me. Maybe Guido is a Philly thing. What do you think?

Also on your show this morning - Chris Illuminati with his A**hole book. You're not very good at interviewing writers are you Dan? I still don't really know what it's about, but nice segway into The Jersey Shore. I'm the G-meister blogging Danny Bonaduce...
