congrats, giants!

It was obvious the Giants were going to win the World Series for two reasons: 1) Their name is the Giants, and all Giants rule sports. 2) They celebrated with the better bubbly (Mumm Napa versus the Tigers’ non-alcoholic Fre Brut). This was a no-brainer sweep. I do wish journalists would stop saying these teams … Continue reading »

world series of bubbly: giants vs tigers

Posted on October 23, 2012 by grapefriend • 1 Comment

We’ve got our World Series, people! Who’s more excited than grapefriend? Well, a lot of people. But I AM excited to have our final champagne showdown (even though technically most teams have celebrated with sparkling wine, not Champagne, but I digress…). Seems that our bubbly baseballers are pretty loyal to their brands. When the Tigers … Continue reading »

So last night I’m hanging at this WSJ Magazine event at Burberry for the launch of The Britain watch. I was happy enough just sipping on my Veuve when I heard there were Giants on premises: cornerbacks Prince Amukamara and Justin Tryon. Well of course I had to meet them, and they were really lovely … Continue reading »

Super Bowl bets between the team cities’ governmental dudes are in full action. We’ve got some yummy NYC eats on the line, and it’s not like I’m trying to be biased but our stuff always seems better than what we’d get from the other team. (Cheese curds, Wisconsin? Thank god we won that one.) Luckily, … Continue reading »

you deserve a grape today, victor cruz!

The year is starting off well for the Giants, the NFC East divisional champs after last night’s win over the Cowboys. And many of those wins are thanks to one Victor Cruz, the adorbale, salsa-dancing touchdowner who made a KILLER 74-yard TD last night. That was after last week’s 99-yard touchdown that set a Giants … Continue reading »

gorga’s giant grapes

Last night I went to the Giants game. I had to drink beer, but it was actually good (called Landshark – pretty tasty). Anyway, Joe Gorga from Real Housewives of New Jersey was sitting right in front of us with Richie (Kathy’s husband). I didn’t see Joe drinking, but grapefriend has to wonder if he’d … Continue reading »
