I knew of CoC back in the day but had no idea that they were still together ... I'm more surprised that they still exist than I am that people got stabbed at their show.

It is, Lushus ... the best part was the father made them turn off the cameras but left the mics on, so it was obvious what was happening. The part that I didn't get about that was why the kid let his father come to high school with him to help campaign ... jebus, what kind of loser lets his old man come into the school for a student goverment thing?!?

As King C pointed out, it'd have a limited shelf life, but I think a bWo reunion would be a good comedy-faction. Run a few weeks of the grainy b&w promos that the NWO used to run ("the following announcement bla-bla-bla" shtick) without ever mentioning who it is, just use cryptic "they're ba-a-a-a-ack" type of shit, with spray painting or whatnot) and have the announcers go apeshit, saying stuff like "I thought the NWO was dead and buried". Have it slowly build to the night that they return ... and it's the bWo instead. Have them be faces and feud them with some low level heels (someone along the lines of Masters or Snitsky or even the Bashams) and just sell a shitload of shirts.

I was wondering the same thing ... I don't think that Giambi in his prime = Vlad, let alone now that he's a shell of his former self. Plus, the Pedro trade was every bit as ludicrous. The Yankees don't have a quick fix. The best thing that they could do is something that they'd refuse to do: have this season be a wash, and be a seller at the deadline. Trade some of the higher priced, older players for younger players or prospects (even if it means eating some of the salaries of the players that they're moving) and then move the prospects for players in the offseason or go after attractive FA's. Am I the only one that thinks other teams would be less-than-willing to trade with the Yankees, purely out of spite?

The higlight/lowlight for Craigslist was around the World Series when the Sox fans were posting the "screw my wife for WS ticket ... serious responses only" requests. I really only read the best of the rants/raves section now.

I think it depends on which coast they're taping on ... Eastern tapings have Smackdown first so Raw can be live at 9 EST; West Coast tapings have Smackdown after for the same reason.

To compare something found on craigslist to a guy setting his dick on fire is non-sensical, even if it was Rant that posted them both. Craigslist pwns. And I agree with Rant ... you clicked on the link, don't be pissed at him for posting it. It'd be like being mad a a Japanese restaurant if you put your hand on the teppanyaki table. /just wanted to say 'teppanyaki'

a) Meanie'd have to prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that JBL did it on purpose to win ... all JBL would have to do (as has been said before in this thread) is convince the judge or jury that he was just trying to make it look real and maybe worked a bit stiffer than he intended to. b) the fact that part of Meanie's injuries were his injuries from the night before re-opening does not help his case. "see, your honor, those stitches were from a fake fight last night. it's the black eye that's important in this instance"

I think the line that the cheesy Dago (OMG, racist, ban plz) uses is "I'm going to hunt you like cattle" ... who the fuck hunts cattle?). But that one is indeed awesome. My favorite part of the fat camp one is the girl that does nothing to actually get in shape (the spoiled girl that complains and fakes that she's sick the entire time) ... when she goes to chat up the guy that she digs and he tells her that she needs to lose more weight. Such an awesome thing to say; the guy gets major points for that.

Essa, you sure? I've heard rumors that they might go the Alias/24 route and have the season start later but have less off-weeks in the middle. I hope you're right, and they're starting sooner rather than later.

Keep on rooting for the Lakers, but root against Kobe ... if that makes sense. While I admit I'm not a huge Red Sox fan, I found it quite easy to want them to win even while wanting Pedro to get shelled last year. And there definitely some people who could come to the Bruins or Patriots that I'd root against while still rooting for the teams to do well.

If Christian or Jericho win the match vs Cena, they're going to Smackdown & a face is winning the 6 way next week in order to set up a unification match. If Batista wins (and Cena retains) then he's going to Smackdown and a heel is winning the 6 was, setting up a unification match. If both Cena and Batista win, I have no idea what they're doing.

I'm at the point where Muhammed Hassan is one of my top 5 or 10 favorites in the WWE right now. While I know he's still wicked green, and the Hassan gimmick is pointless, I think that Magnus has a "superstar look" to him ... meaning that with the right gimmick and the right person to play off of, he could be someone that gets a shot at the ME. Of course, that shot shouldn't come for another few years ... I just think that he's good on the mic and has the right look to be a legit ME'er. My $0.02

Dames, I disagree ... if he just sat there hypnotized by the light ... that ADDS to my HS factor ... it'd lessen it if he saw the light, waited a while and then called it a night, but to sit and stare into it for X amount of time. Holy Shit.

I answered the question as if it were: When you go to a BBQ restaurant, what do you KNOW you're going to get? And answered pork ... pulled pork is teh shit.

Ahhh ... I see. Sorry to bust your balls over nothing, Lushus. Well, you probably had it coming for SOMETHING and I just busted 'em for the wrong reason. Still my apology stands. It seems like every year you hear a story about how the locals hate the show being there, and it's getting progressively worse. Chicago just tagged their house and yelled shit; Philly threw chairs; now Austin is breaking faces. What's next?

"run of the mill first episode"??? I heard some guy got his orbital bone broken (or something comparable ... I heard it from some cat at work, and he's not the best story teller)

Did he screw the pooch in the ass, or was the backside just swollen from the vaginal intercourse? Inquiring minds want to know.

Is it safe to presume that the stats from the virtual players won't hold true in real life? Like, if a pitcher gets shelled on the video game, does the real ERA go up? And if the gamers pick the line-ups, do the real managers have to use that same line-up for 3-9 innings?

Carnavaliz, I'm like you ... well, when it comes to desserts, at least. I haven't had ice cream in like 2 years, and even then only had it because the girl I was dating bought two cones as a romantic surprise kind of thing. I have cake maybe once a year, if that often. And I never have pies. It's not necessarily an eating healthy thing, either ... it's just not something that I grew up eating so it's not hard for me not to now.

"Hey, you know that network that used to be really popular but is now just a joke and a punchline? Let's emulate them!" There was a point in my life that ESPN meant something to me. Now they do such a poor job of entertaining me that other than football season I really have no reason to watch any of their networks (occasional viewings of Cheap Seats excluded).

I wouldn't say he's his own biggest mark, I'd say he's sticking his nose in a friend's fight because he knows that he's got a better chance against said-friend's "enemy'.

I'm surprised no one else has said this ... Bruiser Brody

I realized this weekend why I don't own many wwe dvd's (the Flair one is the only one that I own) ... I went to 4 stores to buy this dvd, and couldn't find it anywhere. I figure I'll give it one more shot this weekend, and if I can't find it again ... no dice, I just won't bother with it and move on to some other frivolous dvd purchase.
