Macklemore Doesn’t Want OKC Thunder Playing His Music

I was chatting with Kevin the other day about feuds in music when I was thinking out loud about how Macklemore doesn’t have any beef yet! Now, I wouldn’t wish that upon anyone, but it’s not uncommon for it to happen especially in the hip hop industry. That conversation came up just two days ago – now lo-and behold – it turns how that Macklemore does have beef…with the Oklahoma City Thunder!

The artist was not too happy when he heard that the team was playing his song “Can’t Hold Us Down” to pump up the fans in their arena and who can blame them? That is OUR team after all!

Yeah, we’re still bitter I guess. But how can you not be when someone takes away your team?!

5 Reasons Why I Love The Mariners Bearded Cap

photo cred | Mariners

1. First off, the beaded cap on kids will be the most endearing thing you’eve ever seen. Just imagine what it looks like to see a 4-year old girl instantly transform into a bearded man. That’s some circus stuff right there.

2. The knitted bearded cap is so warm! I’ve worn it for a total of 6 minutes now and have already had to take it off for fear of becoming too hot in it.

3. It’s so Seattle. Beards. Cap. Mariners. A creation like this is something that would only come from this city.

4. You can instantly hipster-fy your bearded cap by adding a pair of hipster glasses to it. I chose Warby Parker.

5. There is nothing better than going to a Mariners game and seeing a bunch of goofy looking people in a sea of bearded caps! Instant bonding moment.

Bonus Reason: You might be able to sip your beer through the mouth hole…but we haven’t tried this move yet.

My Favorite Moment: Last Night’s NCAA Championship Game

I really only watched the last part of this game though so you can’t ask me about the rest of the game.

Out on the Town: 4/8

photo cred | Jay Friedman

Hey readers, if you love free stuff as much as I do, then I’ve got a treat for ya! To celebrate the Mariners’ opening day this coming Monday, Cupcake Royale will serve you up a free scoop of ice cream if you are donning a Mariners’ hat or jersey. Sounds like a pretty sweet deal to me! Have you dessert first and then head on down to the game y’all.

Out on the Town: 4/1

photo cred | Seattle Met Magazine via Seattle Mariners

Last year, I felt so lucky to be able to attend two Mariners games. Now I know that isn’t a lot and that doesn’t make me a super fan by any means, but for anyone that knows me, you know that sports aren’t really my thing (they never have been) but take me to a Mariners game and you will have won my heart just like my dear friends and workplace did over the summer. Contrary to what some may think, I love baseball! I’ve been a fan since I was kid because let’s face it – we used to have a pretty stellar roster. Even more, I love eating at games (pretty much any type of event though) and now that I’m of age, I can also enjoy the dranks.

I am so thrilled this year for the possibility of attending even more games with my friends and that is something that is getting me a little bit more excited for spring/summer. The Mariners kick off the season this Monday against Oakland and while they won’t be at Safeco Field for their first game, the festivities are still on. Safeco Field will have an open house celebration that is FREE (admission and parking) and allows guests to watch the game on their new giant HD video board, which is the largest video screen housed of any ballpark in the Major League Baseball. Game starts at 7!

So very tempted to partake in this…

Today. Sunday.

Readers today is a very big SUNDAY.

I woke up early today to watch my Seahawks play in the playoffs and while it was a great game and a fantastic comeback after the first half, we lost.

Sad day. As soon as the game finished, I had to switch gears and go straight into Golden Globes red carpet mode. I thought I was going to end up missing the show because of a happy hour that I had planned with some friends, but now that it has been rescheduled, I can now watch.

I’m giving a play-by-play of red carpet looks on my Twitter NOW and will be live-tweeting throughout the show.

Additionally, we’ve got a new ep. of Revenge and the premiere of Girls tonight so…there is my Sunday night.

Of course, expect a red carpet roundup post tomorrow!

The Weekend: 5 Things

1. A win for our Seattle Seahawks!

 

2. A perfect Croque Madame at Cafe Presse for my Sunday brunch

3. Mine and the boy’s first trip to Costco together and a hot dog for me on him. Quite the catch.

4. I’m not exactly sure why we decided to watch this.

5. A new vinyl that I can’t wait to play on my new record player.
