Mario and Rod 

The single greatest sports broadcasting team in the business. They have become very popular in recent months and the Mario and Rod fan club has sprouted up around Comerica Park. Usually the love from fans they receive is written across many bare male chests.

Rod-isms: "Woweee!" "...and Mario, Bradon Inge has been absolutely stellar down there at 3rd base" "Now if you're Jim Leyland..."

Mario-isms: "Mario Impemba alongside Rod Allen" "...Night-cap" "right on cue"
After I got home from a late night at the office, I saw the Tigers replay on FSN with Mario and Rod

Utility beer 

Utility beer is the beer you keep around for the day-to-day moments when beer is a necessity to assist in pedestrian activities (golf, plumbing, yardwork, babysitting, staff meetings, Zoom calls). For the beer snob it is the beer you save for neighbors when they drop in at 3 p.m. on a Tuesday. It is differentiated from the actual high-end beer you save for special events, holidays, and special tastings.
Person 1: Dave, did you bring along those hazy craft IPA's so we could drink while cleaning Lyle's pool?
Person 2: Nope. I just have a bunch of utility beer that Steve dumped on me. Good enough for this. It is only 10:30 a.m.
