Downhome

Oh of course, but I don't think we've quite reached that point here yet.

I love threads in which posters just can not accept the fact that they are wrong. It makes for some ridiculous entertainment.

At least it's not as bad as the time they tried to use Columbus Day as an excuse. If you want to blame anything on the low rating, blame football and the bullshit we saw on last week's RAW, that says a hell of a lot more than Halloween, which is just a fucking bullshit excuse. Besides, hasn't the RAW rating been falling week to week for the past few weeks anyway?

Wouldn't blaming low ratings on Easter be the most pathetic excuse of them all, considering that it falls on A SUNDAY?

Damn, that's huge news. I'd like to get a confirmation on the FYE bonus disc also.

The next legend to become a semi-regular character on WWE TV? Greg "The Hammer" Valentine Credit: PWInsider I believe he was on Heat on 10/17/05, so I don't know what else they would do with the guy.

Ouch. From the moment Foley started to walk out to the ring I made a remark about how horrible he looked. It's all good that he accepts the blame, but it doesn't make up for it at all.

Lita talked him out of it. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Speaking of Lita, I was almost expecting Styles to refer to her as Miss Congeniality.

I know, but I can't help but dream. It's more than likely for the best, since it would end up a horrible shitfest more than likely. And boy, I still can't get over Foley's showing on the PPV, and on this past RAW. Surely I'm not alone on this one. At least when Hogan shows up he actually acts like he's into whatever it is he's doing. Just about anyone else who returns puts more into it than what we've seen from Foley. Maybe he's disgusted with himself for coming in to take on Carlito instead of going for Samoa Joe.

Who all were the RAW guys fighting the SD guys on RAW this week? I think I saw Cade and Murdock in there, but do you really want them in the match? With all of this talk abotu Vince putting down Bishoff, maybe they'll seriously give us a War Games match, RAW vs. SD, at SS.

Ummm, if Edge doesn't care about SD or RAW, then why in the hell was he a part of this entire feud to start with? Why did he invade SD with Masters? Talk about bullshit.

This is a great site: http://www.theofficequotes.com/ From B.J. Novak's (Ryan) blog: http://www.tvguide.com/News/Insider/?cmsGu...9-55C1E6579C99} And from Dwight's: http://blogs.nbc.com/office/

I don't really know why, but I went ahead and bought this version at Best Buy. I have been told that it has a limited run of 15,000 but I can't confirm that number:

That was everything but a blow off match. If anything, it was just the start of the feud. This match was all about Flair wanting to achieve two things. One, he wanted to prove HHH wrong about his career being over and not being able to bring it anymore, and two, he wanted to get revenge on HHH after the beating he received a few weeks ago. This match wasn't about Flair wanting to score the pin fall or the submission, hell it wasn't even about HHH totally caring if he won or not, it was all about proving he could still bring it, and it was all about seeking revenge. He beat the hell out of HHH, kicked his ass with a chair, and just left his worthless bleeding ass in the middle of the ring for all to see. HHH can now say that Flair didn't really beat him, he can call him a coward for leaving the cage instead of staying to try to pin him or whatever. It all makes perfect sense to me. I just worry about what the total end result of this feud will be. I think HHH will cost Flair the IC title to someone, and they'll have a big match at SS that will not be for a title or anything. Either way, it should be solid once again.

Most DVD players in stores do that, so it wont be an issue. For example, I know for a fact that the Philips DVP642 takes care of it. Most DVD players you see in retail stores will take care of it also.

A few more things: I think it's just about safe to say that Shelton's WWE career is over as of last night. He's been pissed on for a while now, but that match on Heat looked like the climax to me. Boy, how things can change in the span of a single year. Then, we have Joey Styles. As I stated earlier in the thread, he needs to be brought in full time. He can make just about anything seem important, and he actually knows what he's talking about. Now yes, there were a few times where it was obvious that he hasn't been following WWE from show to show, but he'll get over that in the span of a single week or so. He really did a hell of a job for the HHH/Flair match, especially pointing out HHH's pervious quad injury. If last night was an audition, I'd say he earned himself a job. On a side note, that situation with Edge was just sour. I'm sure plenty of fans voted Hardy just to see him get in there with Edge, and I bet that pissed off a ton of fans. That was a rotten thing to do, I couldn't believe that. Yes I know he's hurt, but they could have covered that up for a quick match if you ask me.

Just as I said I would do, I started the download earlier today, it finished in a hurry, and I just finished watching the PPV. Here are my thoughts: * Matt Hardy & Rey Mysterio b Chris Masters & Gene Snitsky; Fans Choices: Mysterio, Layfield, Christian, Hardy, Holly This match was way better than I thought it would be, but of course most of that was because of Hardy and Mysterio. It was solid throughout, except for that one Mysterio/Master botch, which was pretty funny. I've always liked Mysterio, but especially here lately it seems like just about every match he's a part of is a lot better just because he's a part of it. If he doesn't at least get a serious title shot pretty soon, then it will be a shame. I think he deserves it, and I think it just might happen. * Eugene & Jimmy Snuka beat Rob Conway & Tyson Tomko; Fans Choices: Jim Duggan, Kamala, Jimmy Snuka Why in the hell would the fans pick Snuka when he can't even hardly get around? Sure he can do his finisher, but it just about takes him forever to steady himself enough so he doesn't kill himself. It should have been Hacksaw in there (I voted for him), since he can actually get around just as good as he always could. This was one pointless match, and hardly deserved to be on a RAW, much less on a PPV. * Mick Foley (as Mankind) defeated Carlito Cool; Fans Choices: Cactus Jack, Mankind, Dude Love Ok, how about this? Fuck you Mick Foley. Yeah, that's pretty simple I believe. You are a fat piece of shit who only shows up for the fat paycheck, to take on a piece of shit like Carlito, and not only that but you don't even put forth any effort for this match. If you look up "phoning it in", it should have the description of this horrible match. Could you look like you couldn't care less any more than you did here? Not only all of this, but we got the bastardized version of what was ORIGINALLY one of, if the the, greatest characters ever. Just fuck off and don't come back ever again if this is all you have to offer. You are worthless in my eyes now, and from the looks of your performances here lately you even believe the same. * Kane & Big Show beat Lance Cade & Trevor Murdoch; Fans Choices: The two who weren't voted for the main event Yeah, way to totally make your new tag team look total jobbers in what was their first really high profile match. It was entertaining, I did enjoy it, but it wasn't what should have happened. Either way, maybe TBS/Kane as champs will at least make for interesting TV. * Batista defeated The Coach w/Goldust & Big Van Vader; Fans Choices: Verbal Debate, Arm Wrestling, Street Fight I don't even want to comment on this mess. * Trish Stratus won a Fulfill Your Fantasy Diva Battle Royal; Fans Choices: Cheerleader, Lingerie, Leather & Lace Once again, no comment. * Ric Flair defeated Triple H in a Steel Cage Match; Fans Choices: No-DQ Match, Submissions, Steel Cage God bless Ric (NOT RICK YOU FUCKTARD FANS!!!) Flair, seriously. If anyone doubted his ability, if anyone doubted that he could still go in a high profile match, then all you need to do is take a look at this one. This was classic Flair from start to finish, and I am not ashamed to say that this is now one of my favorite matches from the past few years. Not only have I enjoyed the overall storyline surrounding the match, but the match itself told a story greater than just about any of the shit the "professional writers" have put together. This one was a classic in my book. * John Cena beat Kurt Angle and Shawn Michaels -WWE title-; Fans Choices: Shawn Michaels, The Big Show & Kane You know, the match itself wasn't that bad, I actually enjoyed it, but they screwed up on the entire ending. Tonight was the night for WWE to once again set Kurt Angle on track to become the number one man in the entire industry, where he rightfully belongs, and they dropped the ball big time. The sooner they abort John Cena (or at least his over hyped push), the better. The fans in the building, the so called marks, were just about booing the moron out of the building, and you could just feel that it was Kurt Angle's night to go all the way, just about everyone wanted to see it happen. I've been hearing that Kurt is very pissed off about his place in the company as of late, and how he thinks that he should be on top, so it wouldn't surprise me to see him go the way of Jericho and Christian if WWE doesn't straighten the way up and realize what they need to do. Abort Cena, and give the ball to Kurt Angle. If it wasn't for the Flair/HHH match, this would have been two thumbs WAY down, but with it on the card, well, I still have to say two thumbs down, but not as harshly. That Flair/HHH match though, wow. Had Kurt Angle went over in the main event, I think the Flair/HHH match and the Kurt win would have evened out the PPV as a whole, but that didn't happen. I will say one more thing. If I had actually ordered the PPV, the Flair/HHH match would have kept me from feeling totally cheated. As a Flair fan, a life long Flair fan, that was a really special match to me.

That's also true. They don't want any outside interference, much like what we're seeing here.

Oh wow, what an episode last night! "You talkin' to me? You talkin' to me? Raging Bull, Pacino." "Oh yeah, Karate Kid...the Hillary Swank version." "I'm going to do Dwight a favor. Keep me as his emergency contact and I can call the hospital. That way, we can cut out the middle man." "Would I rather be feared or loved? Ummm, easy, both. I want people to be afraid of how much they love me." And many other great lines.

An easy way to get a region free DVD player: Go to WalMart, or just about any other store that has DVD players, and buy the Philips DVP642 DVD player. Once you get it home, there is a code that you type in using the remote, and then tada, it's a region free player. Even better, you can pick this player up for $50-$60, maybe less depending on where you get it. This is the one that I use, and it's just perfect, it will play any disc I put in it, no matter what the region code. To me, this is just about one of the easiest ways to go region free. Codes for DVD players can be found here: http://www.videohelp.com/dvdhacks Just search for your DVD player that you already own, there might be a code for it also.

This has been mentioned here before, but since it was just released yesterday (R2 only), I figured I'd start a thread about it. I ordered this tonight for $37.95, so I should have it pretty soon. Here are some different pictures of it: http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/B...6037552-3346039 And here is a review of it: http://www.sexgoremutants.co.uk/phantasmbox.html To get this set for the price I stated above, go to the following link, then click the link that comes up to activate the discount, then just search for Phantasm: http://www3.cd-wow.us/promotion.php?promo_...2_1&affid=14282 And for the record, CD-Wow is just about my favorite place to order DVDs from. The customer service can't be beat, and I've never had a package take longer than one week to get to me. Remember that you need to be able to play R2 DVDs if you want to pick this up, but that shouldn't be a problem for a lot of you. This is right up there with the R2 Hellraiser box set if you ask me.

I know for a fact that they do hook up boxes to televisions, or some other sort of equipment. It can be a huge pain in the ass for some people though, especially those with home theaters. Either way, let us know how this goes for you.
