Cuddles is gracing the cover of Today's Groom.

I don't know about this, baseball players or no. Today's Groom sounds like something purchased exclusively by today's bride and thrust upon today's unwitting groom, where it will end up in the pile of magazines by the toilet unread, until today's bride finds it there under some old Newsweeks, short of some water damage as pristine as the day it came off the rack, and sighs heavily, because for a while there she allowed herself to believe she was marrying someone who might read Today's Groom, who might really get into analyzing all the different tuxedo options and read reviews of caterers and look for the best manscaper in town--not the second best, mind you, because when you're getting manscaped you really don't want to skimp--and of course she hasn't, she's marrying you, and of course while intellectually she knows you were never going to crack that glossy cover, and she knows that that, in fact, is part of your charm, and she has many people she can talk to about tuxedoes and caterers and manscaping, there's really no one who makes her laugh quite like you do, and she'll remember that eventually, she really will, though it will be sometime long after she holds the copy of Today's Groom in her hand and gives you that look, you know the look, and there's nothing Michael Cuddyer's dimples can do for you then.
Oh, and Vote Joe.
Posted by Batgirl at October 30, 2006 05:43 PMThat's such a great picture!
But somehow i missed the fact that he is engaged. I'm so happy for them!
YAY! Ha ha. Our little Cuddles McDimply is getting married. He looks so adorable in that tux. So true about the magazine thing.
Posted by: TwinsPrincess at October 30, 2006 07:21 PMI hope she won't interfere with his pitch selection, which is not covered in "Today's Groom"; I'll bet.
Posted by: al at October 30, 2006 07:26 PMmy boyfriend, getting married. oh boy am i jealous. well i just have to remember... if he's happy then i'm happy. and yes he does look AMAZING in that tux.
Posted by: naomilovescuddles at October 30, 2006 07:41 PMHee. Does anyone else find it funny that MLB's caption lauding the Veep says he has "a downright silly 95/16 strikeout-to-walk ratio"?
Posted by: Annun at October 30, 2006 10:04 PMVore Joe indeed.
Does it really let you keep hitting the "vote again" buttion, and record your vore? If so here's 40 for the VP
That would be voTe joe. And make that 50 votes if it really counts them.
I Love that Cuddy, mmmmh *thinks warm thoughts to self*
Over here there's a magazine called Stag and Groom which is purely about which lap dancing club in brataslava one should go to on your stag weekend, nothing about caterers and floral centerpieces or anything.
And manscaping? Guy's if you're going to do it PLEASE do it yourself, no first best second best third best DO IT YOURSELF!!!! The queer eye for the straight guy book has lots of great tips for such things but DO IT YOURSELF!!!!
D
"water damage?" eeeeeeeeeeewwwwwwwww!!!!!
It's funny 'cause it's true...
Posted by: YankeeFan at October 31, 2006 06:56 AMWhat a nice smile that young man has.
I know they were planning a small wedding, but I wish Michael had read the magazine so that he would have known that etiquite tells you to get those invitations in the mail early--I am still waiting for mine.
I wonder if Cuddy even reads the magazine. I wonder if posing for the cover was good enough to make his fiancee think he does.
Posted by: JustBeth at October 31, 2006 08:01 AMI'll be happy to Vote Joe -- but voting on catchers isn't even an..... um..... oh. Joe *Nathan*....
And here I thought that BG was asking to throw votes to the Chairman!
I voted multiple times, too. He's also got the best picture. Hope MLB programmers don't figure out what got screwed up until much later....
Posted by: PatGLex at October 31, 2006 08:05 AMGreat shot of Cuddy! I didn't get my invite either, and tropical weather would be nice with the bite in the air today.
Posted by: insider at October 31, 2006 08:50 AMFinally, a wedding magazine geared towards my needs! Oh wait, it's not about baseball on the inside... back under the Maxim for you!
Posted by: Will Young at October 31, 2006 09:24 AMVote Johan too!
Is it time for spring training yet? No? Hmmm, well, Happy Halloween!

Want to class it up a bit?

Posted by: heraldguy at October 31, 2006 10:02 AMWho knew such a magazine existed? Regardless, that cover is adorable!

Posted by: arcolala at October 31, 2006 12:26 PMSo very handsome!
I think I might dump the hat =)
Those must be the Chairman's favourite pants -everytime I see a pic of him dressed up - he has those pants on =)
Well we have the Chief one more year - we just picked up his option.
Happy Halloween!!
Much Love
Wonder Woman
YAY! That's good to know that we will have the Cheif back for next year.
