    And my love for wrestling has just died...

    CC's also not being paid to be an aesthetic attraction on an international cable broadcast. You're comparing apples to oranges. Yes, it's not shocking that most males would pick a professional model over a teenage TV watcher. But if you put her against other models ... maybe she would be considered ugly. Free adtime on a show that's not televised? And I'm willing to wager that most ROH fans are already aware of the WWE product ... it's not like he's giving insight to a new, undiscovered competitor to ROH.

    Does anyone have video of Benoit's dive?

    Yeah, he was fine, remarkably. This guy is gonna end up being paralyzed in the ring or killing himself. <{POST_SNAPBACK}>

    Oh, shit ... I didn't know that TSM had anyone from NH ... man, I've had some good times in your state. (some bad, too, but the good definitely outweighs the bad)

    ESPN searches for the next World Series of Poker..

    Fox Sports in the States shows British dart competitions, too. I'd rather watch dart competitions from the UK than either basketball or baseball.

    Tivo

    I don't have TiVo (hell, I don't even pay for cable) but most of my friend's do. It's pretty cool to pause a live sporting event to go outside and smoke, and come back 10 or 15 minutes later and resume watching the game without skipping a beat.

    Forgive my cluelessness ... but huh?

    When you shave

    How thick is your stubble? If I even try to shave without shaving gel (shaving cream is teh suXor) I get brutal razor burn. But then again, I have a 5:00 shadow already, and I shaved at 6 this morning. Moral of my story: if all you've got is whiskers, yeah, skip the shaving gel/cream. If you've got enough hair, use it and save yourself a shitload of burn.

    Triple H Wendy's Commercial

    You would think that after I mentioned that we already covered this in the thread devoted to useless tripe that doesn't require a thread, that people would get the message but that was asking too much. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> The problem with those threads is that they get so long, it's hard to post something without the risk of it being a repost. And what's so wrong about a pointless thread that is likely to be bumped off the front page in like a week? It's not like there's a finite number of threads that we can use, and once that limit is reached we're SOL.

    PTC's Best and Worst List

    Where was the PTC when I was a kid and Benny Hill was on regular TV at 5:30 pm ... nothing more wholesome than watching old British men chasing young, lingerie-clad byrds as a 7-year-old while waiting for dinner to be ready. Yet to show animated nudity at 9:30 on a Sunday night is 'stop the presses' bad.

    Scissorfight

    Scissorfight puts on a pretty good show. I've seen them a couple of times now, and have been pretty impressed each time. BTW, Cheesala ... where are you from that you're checking out the Phoenix?

    Cam'ron sh'ot

    While I'm not a fan of his music, and have no interest in seeing him get killed, I do have to say that getting capped could only help his career ...

    Possibly moving to Delaware or Massachusetts...

    It's not as hard to find a spot as people claim ... it's not much worse than Chicago, NYC or Philly ... you've just got to know where to look. It's funny, I was waiting for SOMEONE to post a "it's not that bad" argument. I really don't think one is coming.

    NHL Thread

    It is a good call, for the long term. One say Comcast is going to win the "digital war" and be the dominant media company in North America. At that point the NHL is going to be glad they hooked up with Comcast early on and built a relationship with them. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> While the other three leagues lament their partnerships with PRIMITIVE ESPN! BETTMAN WILL BE LAUGHING I SAY <{POST_SNAPBACK}> If the other leagues were treated with as much disrespect from ESPN as the NHL was, they'd be keen on getting away, too. Preseason baseball gets more attention than the NHL end of regular season/beginning of postseason. I'm glad the NHL made a decision that might be foolish in the shorterm but could be brilliant in the longterm. It was a safe gamble, IMHO.

    The Phoenix "On the Download" blog is normally good for music. Good call on posting it.

    Possibly moving to Delaware or Massachusetts...

    Thanks, I'm also looking at New England College of Law in Boston as another option. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Pick the school in the city over the school in Springfield. Springfield's in the ass end of nowhere ... not a whole lot to do around there.

    The best Internet elitist-darling comedy is

    24 is hardly comedy. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Reading and comprehension aren't my strong points, I guess. Until you pointed out that it's not a comedy, I hadn't even noticed that comedies were the theme.

    creepy racist music video

    I've seen Another State of Mind ... I definitely dug it, and it is indeed Youth Brigade that they toured with. It's funny, though, so many other people in the early hardcore scene make fun of them for that movie. I'll have to check out the new video.

    The worst song ever

    How you guys let this one slide is beyond me ... I don't think that Glenn was looking for insightful lyrics at the time, so I won't defend that. But musically that song rocks. Zarock, a winner is not you.

    creepy racist music video

    Darth, is that video worth checking out? (the Social D video, mind you, not the racist pre-teen video)

    WWE News (Multiple Items)

    It is possible... but then it wouldn't be a one night stand. It doesn't surprise me though. I mean, WCW had how many World War III's? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Let's say you have sex with a girl tonight, and then don't talk to her or deal with her again afterwards. But then a year from now, you run into the same girl at the bar, have sex with her again, and then again don't call her or deal with her afterwards. Is that not 2 one night stands? So, it's literally possible, but still a dumb ass name & idea. Oh, don't get me wrong, I definitely agree. But I think that a lot of that is because I was accustomed to seeing the Horsemen (well, Flair & Tully at least) in suits. So to see them fighting in suits wasn't that weird. To see Angle or HBK in suits is weird to begin with, let alone seeing them fight in them.

    The best Internet elitist-darling comedy is

    I voted AD, purely on the fact that people that don't like the show are told that they 'don't get it'. And I think that 24 should have been on the list.

    WWE News (Multiple Items)

    At least it didn't look as ridiculous as HBK, Kurt Angle, Batista, and HHH kicking each others' asses several months ago on Raw while wearing slacks and suits on the show. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> See, the wrestlers fighting while wearing suits reminds me of the oldschool NWA, when the Horsemen would attack people while still dressed in suits. Tully would undoubtedly take off his dress shoe to use as a weapon, which always cracked me up. I have no issue with them fighting in suits.

    NHL Thread

    Don't even joke about that. Just don't. Gill has found a way to be even worse this year than he was in the past. And he'd set the bar pretty freaking low in the past. Sadly, he's going to be another Don Sweeney: a Bruin for most of his career, even though he does absolutely nothing to warrant keeping. Re: the OLN coverage ... I'm with you, Max. They zoom in WAY too close. Even when the puck's not in play, the other night in the B's game they power-zoomed on Boynton while he was sitting on the bench ... and not doing anything. He wasn't talking, he wasn't grimacing in pain, NOTHING ... just sitting there. Even weirder, they didn't even talk about him while showing him. And on top of that, during the Leetch interview in the intermission, they zoomed in so close you couldn't even see his entire face: it was just mid-forehead to lower lip. I figured that something was happening in the background (naked pillow fight, for example) that prevented them from being further out, but when they zoomed out, there was no way that the background could have even been seen. It was just non-sensical zooming. Yes, this isn't ESPN we're talking about.

    Do you mean literally the best, or the that is most fawned over by the elite masses?
