Salmons pulls out of Toronto trade What an idiot. Good luck getting that kind of contract offer from anyone else, ever.

Granger wouldn't play guard, he's a 3/4. Daniels would probably start.

Maybe we could use Jackson in a deal for Jamal Magloire. The Pacers have shown interest in him recently.

I'm pretty sure it was straight up, but surely we can't keep Jackson at this point. We're going to end up like the Hawks soon.

The AC should have been #1. Who the hell would think to make an air conditioner out of Legos? They must have been really hot.

WTHR in Indianapolis has reported that the Pacers have reached a deal for Harrington. No terms have been released yet, but the trade exception we got from the Hornets will likely be involved.

It's in.

Not sure why he sent it to me, but here it is -We fade in from commercial to Byron Blach, the newest OAOAST reporter. He is standing beside TJ Burns, the OAOAST X Champion. The belt rests over TJ’s right shoulder. Regina is noticably absent. BLACH “Fans, welcome back to HeldDown. I am standing here with the OAOAST X Champion, TJ Burns. TJ, how are you?” -TJ nods. BLACH “Well, to start off, TJ, you have been obviously not on OAOAST Television for the past couple of weeks. It seems like you came here, won the X Title, issued the challenge, and left. What’s the deal? -TJ looks down at the ground for a second, trying to think of his answer. He nods slowly and looks up. TJ “You see...the past couple of weeks have been busy for me, Byron. I have been defending this title almost every night...” BLACH “I’m sorry to interrupt, but no-one here accepted the challenge.” TJ “Aye, no-one HERE did. Doesn’t mean other’s didn’t. You see, I challenged EVERY wrestler in the lockerrooms. I did not say WHICH lockerrooms. I have been traveling all around the globe, defending this title’s honor. What you people don’t realize...is that the OAOAST? It’s a joke. Here in America, it might be grand, and in Japan, it’s held in some regard, but the rest of the world? They don’t take it seriously. Dance Dance Dragon? The Spanish Inquisition? Angle-Plex? It’s all a joke to them. I was trying my hardest to bring some respect back to the company that helped build me. BLACH “Understandable. To shift gears, Where is Regina?” -TJ glares slightly at Byron, but then looks down. TJ “She...She was accosted in an airport in Florida...I was in the bathroom, and I thought she could take care of herself, and this man...I can’t even talk about it...” BLACH “It’s ok...” TJ “So...due to the fact that I can’t ALWAYS be there, I hired Regina a female bodyguard.” -Byron looks past TJ, then turns and looks the other direction. BLACH “I-I don’t see anybody.” TJ “Well...if I’m here, and Regina isn’t, then don’t you think it’d be odd if I brought her BODYGUARD with me instead?” -With that, TJ shakes his head and walks away. FADEEEE!~!~!

*Cut to Tony Schiavone at the interview podium.* TONY Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome the OAOAST Heavyweight champion of the World...ALFDOGG! *crowd pops all hugelike as [i]Magnum Opus: Father Padilla Meets the Perfect Gnat/Howling at the Moon[/i] hits and Alfdogg makes his way up to the podium.* TONY Alf, last week, you had your first up-close encounter with your challenger at AngleSlam, Drek Stone. You also announced that you'd be participating in the big ten-man tag match at Syndicated. One of your opponents in that match...Drek Stone. ALF You know, Tony...I've thought long and hard about the stuff Mr. Stone had to say about me last week. He babbled on about what a superstar he was, and how inferior I was to him. He also mentioned how much success the Italians had been having lately in the world of sports! It's true, Italy did win the World Cup of soccer...but let's face it, Drek, you're a little rusty. I saw your performance at Battlebowl...and I started to think that maybe Chef Boyardee would be a more suitable challenger at AngleSlam. *crowd cheers* ALF And quite frankly, your "superstardom" doesn't impress me. You come out here, and you give the same repetitive speech, make the same jokes about buyrates that all my other challengers like to make. But that's OK, laugh it up! Just know that the result will be the same as all the others...me standing over you with the belt, as you stare at the lights. *crowd cheers* ALF Some of the names you mentioned, they sound awful familiar. Do you know where Chris Stevens is now? He's sitting at home, watching this show, after being sent to the hospital SEVEN MONTHS ago, because of ME. *crowd cheers* ALF What about Hoff, "your buddy"? Yeah, he beat me, and he kept his #1 contendership last year around this time, and he won his second World title. But he knew who was next in line. *Alf points to himself as the crowd cheers.* ALF So what did "your buddy" do? He dropped the title on the mat and he ran home scared. Just like you, Drek. Why *haven't* you challenged me, Drek? I've been back for quite some time now, and I'm not the hardest person to find. But for some reason, you've never seemed to be around in that time. Why is that Drek? *crowd cheers* ALF Well, I'll be really easy to find at Syndicated, Drek. You'll find me right here in this ring, stomping your ass into a big, steaming pile of Beefaroni. *crowd EXPLODES (in their pants lol)~* ALF The time for talk is over, Drek...and soon to follow, is the Drek Stone era in the OAOAST! *crowd goes crazy as [i]Magnum Opus: Father Padilla Meets the Perfect Gnat/Howling at the Moon[/i] plays Alf off the stage. TONY There you have it, the time for talking is indeed over! We're a mere 9 days away from Syndicated in Australia! Let's go back to... [i]Punishment[/i] by BIOHAZARD hits and Brock Ausstin makes his way out, to ever-increasing cheers, with some boos still scattered. COLE And a FOCUSED Brock Ausstin ready for action here on HeldDOWN~! BUFFER [i]The following contest is scheduled for one fall! Making his way to the ring, from Victoria, Minnesota, weighing in at 305 pounds...BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRROCK AUSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSTINNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN NNNNNNNNNNNNNN!!!!![/i] Brock climbs into the ring and does the Happy Happy Hoss Dance~! BUFFER [i]His opponent...from Clermont, Kentucky, weighing in at 323 pounds...JACK BEAM![/i] *Beam gets a mixed reaction as he raises his hands into the air.* COLE Beam was last seen in Brock's Sunday Detention Challenge at School's Out...and here we go! *DING DING DING* Beam ambushes Brock right from the get-go! COACH I know for a fact Brock still has the Bash fresh in his mind, I wouldn't want to make him mad if I was Jack! Beam whips Brock across the ring into a corner, and Brock bounces out and NAILS Beam with a BIG clothesline! COLE Too late! Brock grabs Beam, and delivers a belly-to-belly overhead! Brock then waits on Beam to get up...and scoops him up on his shoulders! COACH Jesus Christ, already? COLE Hey, easy! COACH God damn, already? COLE :bubbles: Brock turns him for all the screaming crowd to see, and delivers the F-STUNNER-5~!!!!!11111 1... 2... 3!!! *DING DING DING* COLE Brock means BUSINESS, DAMN IT~! And can you believe this crowd? BUFFER [i]The winner of the match...BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRROCK AUSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSTINNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN NNNNNNNNNNNNNN!!!!![/i] Brock then walks over, and stands over Beam. He reaches into the back of his tights. COACH He's not done yet, Cole! Brock pulls a replica Otaku II mask from the back of his tights! COLE THAT'S it! He WISHES this was Otaku he was doing this to. Brock then goes to the outside, and throws the timekeeper to the floor by his shirt, then grabs his chair and slides into the ring. The referee steps in Brock's path and grabs the chair, and Brock simply jerks him right out of the ring. Brock then uses the chair and BLASTS Beam right in the head after he gets up, busting him wide open. COLE And Beam busted wide open, let's get some officials out here! Some officials get out there. COACH ...let's get some strippers out here! Strippers don't get out there. COACH :( Brock takes Beam up the ramp, as officials try to intervene. Brock grabs Beam in a headlock, and holds him for the camera to see, then delivers a right hand to the bloody, masked Beam. COACH Does Brock want Otaku or what? Brock then takes Beam to the edge of the stage, and scoops him onto his shoulders once again. COLE Oh come on now, the officials have got to stop this! COACH Yeah, you've got to stop this, officials! Michael Cole said so! :angry: Brock delivers an F-STUNNER-5~!!!!!11111 OFF THE STAGE to Jack Beam!!! Crowd chants HOLY SHIT, as Brock stares down at Beam and [i]Punishment[/i] plays. COACH I'll tell you something, Cole, there's only one person I would want to be less than Alfdogg right now, and that's Otaku II! Because Brock's coming! *cut to commercial, with Brock staring down with a sick grin at Jack Beam.*

It's like Mario-meets-Doom, sort of.

I think the Spurs got a little better. I think Butler and Francisco Elson (if Denver doesn't match) with Matt Bonner off the bench is an upgrade over what they had up front around Duncan, and Jacque Vaughn could end up being a key pickup as well, because I don't know how much Barry's got left in the tank.

I stand corrected, Hogan actually worked three house shows in March of '93. He teamed with Beefcake all three times, twice against the Beverly Brothers and once against Money Inc. This from cawthon's site

I don't think he wrestled between WM8 and WM9.

Amy's already out. JT is my favorite. Layla's not bad, either, but her tits are pretty scary. You could drive a Hummer between those things.

I'm currently watching Bushwhackers/Beverlys from RR92, and at the start, the 'whackers keep trying to get some kind of chant going, and I can't figure out what it is. The crowd there did pick up on the chant once, though. Does anyone know what they were saying?

I think the Jerome James situation is the reason Chris Wilcox doesn't have a deal yet, too. He never really did anything with the Clips, then has two good months with Seattle and all of a sudden he wants $60 million?

The Knicks aren't going to match for Jackie Butler. Good addition for the Spurs. I don't think they'll miss Rasho or Mohammed, especially if they end up getting Elson, too.

Suns agree with Marcus Banks on a 5 yr/$21 million deal.

Would YOU do that?? Comon now, dont be silly! You're right. I forgot, he has to feed his family.

If Chris Webber really cared about winning something, he would have opted out and worked out a deal for less money. They can't afford to bring anyone worthwhile in while he eats up over a third of the cap, and he'll be impossible to move. If I were AI, I'd be pissed at him.

I don't think Frank's as good as a lot of people might want to say, but I'd still probably hire him before Jordan, particularly after the debacle against Cleveland. There was no reason for Washington not to win that series. And you can hate Scott all you want, but he's done a really good job with the Hornets. It takes more than just a standout rookie season to improve by 20 wins. They've got a solid chance at a playoff spot this season, something I'd bet no one expected from them just three years after moving to the West.

OMG I LOVE THIS VIDEO! I can't believe it! I found myself on this! I WAS AT THIS GAME AND I FOUND MYSELF! OMG this is so amazing! I love this video!

Sometime after the tag match, of course. COLE Folks, we promised highlights of Team Heyross's victory, and we now have those highlights! *cut to footage, and a shot of the Hong Kong team.* COLE That's Jin Zhi Han on your left, and his partner is Song Bing Rong! *highlights of Team Heyross delivering the DOUBLE GOOZLE~! to Han.* COACH Zhi means "will" or "determination", but it takes more than that against Team USA, Team Heyross! *The Super Rocker Dropper finishes off Rong, and Team Heyross is shown celebrating as the crowd gives them nice applause.* COLE So Team Heyross turned a lot of heads in India, and they hope to do the same next week in Kuwait when they take on the Chinese team, who were victorious over Greece! COACH Yeah, you hear that, people? If you live in KUWAIT, you can watch Team Heyross wrestle next week! *sigh* [img=http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v197/alfdogg/TTWCAsianBracket2.jpg] COLE Here's the rest of that bracket, as your other matchup will feature Japan taking on the team from Australia, a match that will take place in Taiwan. No real surprises in this bracket, unlike in the European Bracket, which we'll get to shortly, but let's first take a look at the American Bracket: [img=http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v197/alfdogg/TTWCAmericanBracket2.jpg] COLE As you can see, it will be the team from Cuba stepping up to take on the Canadians, who were very impressive tonight, and we'll have that match right here on HeldDOWN~! next week. The winner of that match will advance to the finals of the bracket on August 5th, to take on the winner between the Mexicans and Germans, who will do battle in Jamaica. [img=http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v197/alfdogg/TTWCEuropeanBracket2.jpg] COLE As mentioned, a couple of upsets here, as we've got a 6-7 matchup set for the second round, the team from Denmark advances to take on the seventh-seeded Jamaicans, as Italy and Sweden are both sent home prematurely! COACH Quite a letdown for the Italians after winning the soccer World Cup just recently! COLE That match taking place in Glasgow, Scotland. And the big one in that bracket, the English and French, in what's sure to be a heated battle in Manchester! [img=http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v197/alfdogg/TTWCAfricanBracket2.jpg] COLE And another business-as-usual bracket here, as Lithuania will now go to Zaire to take on Finland, while Iran will fight it out with the home-team Egyptians in Sudan. Should be another exciting round of tag team action! Let's go to Josh!
