Give it up, Ronald. You'll never touch Chick-Fil-A, so stop trying. I'm a militant atheist and I eat there anyway is how good those damned sandwiches are.

Nothing reminds of athleticism, sportsmanship, and integrity quite like a lukewarm hunk of chemically-altered chicken flesh between two doughy pieces of bread.

Nappy headed chickens

MightyPez		2008-05-16 05:29:45 PM

They no can dunk, but good fundamentals. So it more fun that way!

phallus		2008-05-16 05:30:20 PM

no one cares about the wnba at all

Ornik: That more fun to watch anyway.

aaahahahaha!

Damn, I miss Chick-Fil-A, farking west coast!

I'd also like to add that this is nothing new, has anyone here seen a soccer jersey before?

A friend of mine was at the Rose Garden in Portland when they were announcing the formation of Portland's WNBA team (I can't even remember the name - Fire?) years ago. Two lesbians were sitting in front of him. One says to the other, "This'll make everyone forget about the Blazers!"

Haw.

GhostFish		2008-05-16 05:32:12 PM

They are pushing that damn sandwich like it's the second coming of Christ.

Anyone know why, exactly?

Zik-Zak		2008-05-16 05:32:25 PM

The new WNBA challenges viewers to shiat on them. It is sad really.

why do you hate sex between the elderly so much?

It's true, I think even the MLS has more fans. But yeah, phallus tends to be a dick in threads, just look at his name.

otto the bull		2008-05-16 05:35:35 PM

I had a coupon for a free one and I tried it yesterday. Greasy bun, chicken was rubbery and three limp pickle slices. Crap.

DrForrester		2008-05-16 05:35:55 PM

Women's National Basketball Association players will wear McDonald's golden arches on their jerseys for each team's season opener...

This is just going to confuse people. They will think it's a high school all-star game.

The WNBA is the only sports league that can make the NHL look like a media juggernaut.

And his two cronies are just as awful.

Drive about five hours south.

No way am I gonna waste 5 hours (10 hours when you count the trip back) to get some chicken sandwiches. Maybe if I am already on a road trip to SoCal I'll look for it. What city exactly is it in (or at least what area specifically)?

Heamer		2008-05-16 05:38:58 PM

Gonad the Ballbarian: why do you hate sex between the elderly so much?

You ever pulled apart a grilled cheese sandwich?

There is one in south Santa Ana, a few blocks north of South Coast Plaza. And there is one in the Tustin (or is it Irvine) Marketplace.

I think I just threw up a little bit there.

Haw.

To be fair, the Blazers were pretty terrible two years ago considering they were still starting their rebuilding process.

But yeah...heh...WNBA is boring. I'd still rather watch the Blazers of two years ago.

I went to college in Redlands, CA. A few months before I graduated, a Chick-Fil-A opened in one of the shopping centers. A quick Google search brings this up:

27520 W Lugonia Ave
Redlands, CA 92374
(909) 307-8719

Oh. make no mistake... they were terrible. 21-61. I would just turn the TV off every time they got down by 17 in the first quarter, which was a LOT. But their smallest home audience that year was probably larger than at any WNBA game ever.

I'm glad someone was able to work "nappy headed" in somewhere. :)

They are closer than you think. Try their restaurant locator.

tokemon		2008-05-16 05:54:40 PM

I just wanted to say that they cut to Candace Parker and Lisa Leslie in the stands at the Lakers-Jazz game on wednsday, and damn, Candace Parker is HOT

I actually did, and they had no locations within 50 miles of San Jose. They wouldn't let me look for ones beyond 50 miles, so I gave up and relied on this thread for answers.

/Thanks for the info on locations Heamer and airplayne, btw

akugyaku		2008-05-16 05:58:06 PM

Candace Parker is mad hot, that is all.

hbk72777		2008-05-16 06:02:57 PM

Sorry, I just put in CA with no city, and found one for you in Fairfield, about 86 miles away. Enjoy.

tokemon		2008-05-16 06:08:38 PM

akugyaku: Candace Parker is mad hot, that is all.

The thing is, I'd only seen her in games, or random publicity shots and thought she was alright, but nothing spectacular.

But in that little snippet of her during the Lakers game in just casual makeup and attire...whoa mama

/cant find any youtube of it :(
//and the stuff from a GIS doesnt do her justice

Trojan_Whore		2008-05-16 06:08:43 PM

I've never met a single person who's gone to a WNBA game; then again, I'm not sure I've ever met anyone who's considered women's basketball a sport either.

Coincidence?

JonnyBGoode		2008-05-16 06:09:43 PM

a great corporate tie in...the McDonalds Southern Chicken Biscuit

Because it's dry, tasteless, boring... and has a hidden pickle?

Right on, at least that one's actually in the Bay Area.

Oh and I'll cosign on the comments regarding Candace Parker.

Makes sense since Fairfield is the gateway to Sacramento and the rest of Calitucky.

Drive about five hours south.

There's also one in the Seattle airport. I stop by anytime I'm going through Seattle on my way to civilization.
