They'll beat Portland. They don't have the Kobe-stopper anymore.

I'd probably laugh at the Bulls for picking Redick too, though. I mean, they've already got Ben Gordon upset with his playing time.

Knicks would have to have a first round pick to do that, which they don't. The Bulls have their pick It's not lottery protected?

The referee attaches the rope to both wrestlers, then calls for the bell. *DING DING DING* Brock immediately pounces on Alf! COLE And here we go! And this could very well be the last fall of this match! COACH Definitely, Alf has to drag the 300-pound Brock Ausstin all the way around the ring just to *tie* the score in less than 8 minutes! COLE And the blood flowing from both men after 50+ minutes of action, one can only imagine the sight once the final bell sounds after this particular stipulation! Brock goes for an elbowdrop, but Alf rolls out of the way! Alf gets up, slugging away at Brock, then whips him into the ropes, and elbows him down! Alf follows with a suplex! CABOOSE And it looks early on like a tie score just might happen! Brock, however, lands a stiff European uppercut when Alf grabs him off the mat, then takes the rope and swings it across the back of Alf, who cringes in pain! COLE WOW, barbed wire rope across the back! Brock whips Alf once again, then a third time, then waits for Alf to get up and whips him once across the chest! COACH And Brock whipping him like a dog right now! Brock chokes Alf with the rope, then releases and gives him an Irish whip, but puts his head down, and Alf catches him with a DDT! Brock rolls to the outside, and Alf rolls to another side of the floor, then pulls Brock by the rope right into the post! COLE Clever move by Alf, able to post Brock via the bullrope! Alf then chokes Brock with the rope on the floor, but Brock grabs him by the hair and pulls him over. Brock then grabs a chair, and slams it across Alf's back! COLE Chair to the back of Alf, and Brock in control once again! Brock grabs Alf and tosses him back into the ring. Brock delivers a back suplex to Alf, then starts the drag. COLE And here we go! Brock pulls Alf over, and slaps one corner! CABOOSE There's one light! Brock walks over and slaps a second corner! COACH Halfway! Brock goes for a third corner, but instead feels barbed wire across the back! COLE And now it's Brock being whipped! Alf superkicks Brock to the mat, and the lights are turned off. Alf grabs the rope, and begins whipping Brock with it! Alf calls out to the crowd, which gives him support. Alf then goes for the corners against Brock, slapping the first buckle! COLE Alf is three corners away from evening the score! Alf pulls at Brock, slapping a second corner! Alf is inches away from a third corner, when Brock starts pulling back! COACH We got a tug-of-war going here! Brock pulls Alf in far enough to kick at him until he falls to the mat. Brock then gets up and starts choking Alf with the rope once again, then throws him over the top! CABOOSE Brock's going to hang Alf here! COLE FIVE MINUTES LEFT! Alf has five minutes to get out of his predicament and score at least one fall against Brock! The referee steps in to try to get Alf free, and Brock shoves him to the mat, then hops over the top rope to continue his assault. Brock picks up Alf and drops him on the guardrail, then rolls him back into the ring and goes to the corners. CABOOSE Brock's got one! Brock walks over and touches a second, then Alf lays flat, and Brock unknowingly has the rope under his legs. Brock touches a third corner! COLE If Brock touches one more corner, he'll all but have this match in the bag! Alf whips the rope, making a wave which smacks Brock between the legs! Brock falls to the mat, as Alf gets up and wraps the rope around his own arm, then waits on Brock to get up before yanking the rope up into his balls! COACH Oh, man! Brock goes down, and Alf pulls the barbs from his arm, then picks Brock up and drives him down with a piledriver! COLE Piledriver, and I think Alf's going to try it again! Alf touches the first corner! CABOOSE One! Alf slowly makes his way over, and touches a second corner! CABOOSE Two! Alf whips Brock for good measure, and touches a third corner! COLE THREE! ONE MORE TO GO! Alf is mere inches away from the last corner, as Brock suddenly pulls him in and attempts the F-STUNNER-5~!!!!!11111 COLE OH MY GOD! This will seal the deal, and bring Brock Ausstin the Heartland title! However, Brock puts Alf down, as Alf is squeezing his hand! Brock pokes Alf in the eye, then favors his hand. COLE And AGAIN, Alf going to that burned hand of Brock Ausstin! Brock comes up and clotheslines Alf, as Rick Heyross runs out to ringside with a glove! COLE Where did Rick Heyross come from? And what does he have in his hand? CABOOSE It looks like one of those iron gauntlets! COACH Oh come on, it's just to protect his hand! COLE Under three minutes to go! Brock waits on Alf, then winds up...but Alf ducks, and delivers an overhead belly-to-belly! COLE And Alf with a suplex to counter! Both men slowly get up, and Alf catches Brock and delivers a T-Bone suplex! CABOOSE Alf starting to cook here late! COLE And that gauntlet fell over to the corner, I don't think either man realizes where it is! Alf wraps Brock up and starts to drag him around. Alf touches one corner! CABOOSE I don't think it's going to matter! Alf drags Brock over and touches a second corner! COLE Alf's halfway home! Alf touches the third corner, prompting Rick Heyross to jump onto the apron. Alf spots him, and drags him into the ring. COACH Now why would he do that? COLE He shouldn't have gotten up on the apron! Alf delivers a suplex to Rick Heyross! He then grabs the rope, as the crowd starts to get loud. CABOOSE I think Tricky Rick's about to be taken to the woodshed! Alf starts to whip Heyross with the rope, who quickly rolls out! Brock charges Alf, but Alf catches him with a rope clothesline! COLE We're inside two minutes, and Alf is on fire! Brock gets up, and Alf attempts a hurricanrana! Brock pushes Alf off, and Alf backflips to his feet, but Brock quickly scoops him up and hits the F-STUNNER-5~!!!!!11111 COACH :lol: COLE That's it. It's over. Brock gloats, then drags Alf around effortlessly and touches one corner. COLE There's one! Brock touches a second corner! COACH Two! Brock touches a third, still without much excess effort. COACH THREE! Brock raises a finger in the air as he approaches the final corner...but Heyross stops him? COACH WHAT??? COLE ONE MINUTE LEFT!!! Heyross hands the gauntlet to Brock. COACH Oh, he wants to put the finishing touches on! Brock picks Alf up, then puts on the gauntlet...but Alf kicks him low! COLE Oh, maybe not! Alf yanks the gauntlet off Brock's hand, grabs it in both hands, and swings it into Brock's jaw! COLE Brock is OUT!!! Alf wraps the rope around the ankles of the unconscious Brock, and drags him to the first corner! COLE There's one! Alf's got THIRTY SECONDS to touch the other three! Alf drags Brock and touches the second! COLE There's TWO! Alf struggles with Brock, but touches the third! COLE THERE'S THREE!!! ALF'S GONNA EVEN IT UP!!! Alf moves desperately towards the final buckle, as the crowd counts the match down! TEN!!! NINE!!! EIGHT!!! SEVEN!!! SIX!!!!! [b]FIVE!!!!! FOUR!!!!! THREE!!!!! TWO!!!!! ONE!!!!![/b] Alf makes one final lunge... and falls fractions of inches short, as the clock hits 60:00 and the bell rings! *DING DING DING* COLE HE DIDN'T MAKE IT!!! COACH YES!!! WE GOT A NEW CHAMPION!!! Alf sits back in the corner with his hands on his head, as Brock is just coming back to consciousness. In his box, Peter Knight leaps to his feet and applauds as the referee retrieves the Heartland belt. [i]BUFFER The winner of the Iron Man match...and NNNNNNNNEEEEEEEWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW OAOAST Heartland Champion...BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR OOOOOOOOOOOCK AUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSTIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN!!!!![/i] [i]Punishment[/i] hits as Alf continues to sit in the corner. COLE Folks, we have a new OAOAST Heartland champion, but give both of these men all the credit in the world! These guys went out there for 60 minutes, and they left their blood and sweat all over the Staples Center! And the end result...Brock Ausstin, a singles champion for the first time in his career! If you can't appreciate the effort of these two tremendous superstars, then I honestly don't know how you can call yourself a fan! The camera pans around to show the fans on their feet applauding. CABOOSE Well, we got about 20,000 strong here who definitely have the right to call themselves fans! The camera then pans over to Sofa Central, where Triple C all sit down after having stood up. COACH I'm exhausted after just WATCHING that one! I can't imagine what it must be like to be Alfdogg or Brock Ausstin right now! COLE Let's go right now to (insert announcer here)!

If the Knicks drafted JJ Redick, I'd die laughing.

*DING DING DING* COLE Well, the chips seem to be falling in Alf's favor now...he's been known for being good with a set of nunchucks! Alf rolls Brock back into the ring, and hammers away at him in the corner. Brock starts firing back, and eventually gets the better of the exchange. Brock whips Alf HARD into the corner, then makes his way up for the weapon! COACH And Brock's going to get the nunchucks already! Alf struggles to his feet, and pulls Brock down. Brock goes to the eyes, then whips Alf into another corner. Brock pauses, then charges, but Alf gets his feet up! Alf then comes out of the corner with a Hart Attack clothesline, and makes his way to the pole! CABOOSE Alf could get it here! Alf is standing on the top rope, when Brock runs over and takes him off with a belly-to-belly! COLE Belly-to-belly off the top from Brock, what a devastating move! Brock poses, then picks Alf up and delivers a big backbreaker! Brock drops a knee to the sternum, and goes for the nunchucks! COLE And now Brock on his way up the pole! COACH No, he stopped! Brock sees Alf coming, then jumps down and clotheslines him back down! Brock goes to the ropes, but Alf takes him down with a drop toehold! Alf then gets up and goes to the ropes, but Brock rolls out of the way, avoiding an elbowdrop, and takes another shot at getting the stick! COLE And Brock up the pole once again! Alf gets up, walks over, and delivers a low blow! Alf then picks him off the second rope in an electric chair, and drops back to the mat with him! Both men are down and out, and the referee counts... 1!!! 2!!! 3!!! 4!!! 5!!! 6!!! 7!!! 8!!! Both men get up at aproximately the same time, and both go to the ropes, colliding in mid-ring, and both stumble backwards and through the ropes! COLE Mid-ring collision, and both men through and out to the floor! Brock makes his way over to Alf, and the two slug it out briefly before Brock shoves Alf into the post! COACH And Alf posted out there, and looking a long way up at those nunchucks! Brock climbs into the ring, and up to the top rope, reaching for the chucks as Alf climbs up onto the apron. Alf grabs Brock's foot out from under him, crotching him in the corner! COLE But still, Alf able to come back and thwart another attempt at the chucks by Brock! Alf springboards to the top rope, then catches Brock and takes him to the mat with a REVERSE HURRICANRANA~! COACH WHOA! COLE A reverse hurricanrana, and Brock is down and looks to be out! Now could be Alf's best chance at getting the weapon! Alf slowly gets to his feet, and climbs up the ropes. Alf gets to the top, and after batting at it a few times, is able to GRAB THE NUNCHUCKS! CABOOSE Alf's got 'em! Alf stops to raise them in the air, and Brock takes him off the top with a back suplex and bridge! 1... 2... NO!!! Alf kicks out! COLE Alf stopped to celebrate, and it almost cost him, as we've hit 50 minutes in this match! Ten minutes to go! Alf is groggy, but as Brock comes at him, he's able to raise up and deliver a shot to the ribs with the nunchucks! Alf then hops up and delivers a shot to the back! Alf then kneels down, putting the nunchucks between the feet of Brock, then stands to his feet, looking out to the crowd with a big smile on his face. COACH Don't you do it, Alf! Alf quickly brings the nunchucks up, crotching Brock with them! Brock holds himself, but ducks a superkick and knocks Alf to the mat with a big boot! Alf loses the nunchucks upon hitting the mat. COACH Oh yeah! Get it, Brock! Brock does get it, then waits on Alf to get up. Brock takes a big swing, but Alf ducks and catches him with a small package! 1... 2... NO!!! Brock gets out! COLE Wow, so close to being down to a one-fall advantage right there! Brock gets up and levels Alf right in the shoulder with the nunchucks, then once in the lower back! Alf drops to his knees, and Brock wraps the nunchucks around his throat and begins choking him! Brock breaks at the four-count, then shoves Alf to the mat by his face. Brock covers... 1... 2... Kickout! Brock then grabs Alf by the face, talking trash, before Alf bites his hand! COACH Look at that! COLE And that's the same hand that was burned minutes ago in the last fall! The nunchucks are loose again, and Alf grabs them! He wraps it around Brock's knee, tripping him to the mat, then wraps it around his ankles and flips over into a jackknife pin! 1... 2... 3!!! *DING DING DING* COACH I can't believe this. COLE It's down to one fall! BUFFER [i]The winner of the seventh fall...ALFDOGG!!!!![/i] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ [b]Score[/b] Brock: 4 Alf: 3 Time remaining: 8:40 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Knight punches the leather sofa he is sitting in as Alf sits up and attempts to catch his breath. COLE Tony, take it! The camera goes backstage, as it's now Rick Heyross who's pacing the floor. TONY Thank you, Michael...well, Reject...it's down to one fall for Alf. Give 'er a spin. Reject takes a deep breath, and spins the wheel. A huge smile comes across his face, as the wheel lands. TONY It's a BARBED-WIRE BULLROPE match! Another one that should be pretty self-exlpanatory...it's a classic bullrope match, but with one twist...the bullrope will be wrapped in barbed wire! Drag your man to all four corners to win the match, and as you'll see, there are lights in the corners which will light up when the buckles are touched! Back out to Sofa Central! (51:50)

Does anyone know of a site where I can DL the full versions? I DL'ed a couple recently, but they were just demos.

*DING DING DING* COLE Wait a minute, what's Brock doing? Brock has thrown the driver of the ambulance out to the floor and jumped inside! He drives backstage, and swerves the ambulance around so that the back end is facing a wall of oil barrels! COLE ...no, don't do it, Brock! Brock starts honking the horn, then suddenly jumps out of the ambulance holding his face. Alf follows shortly after, holding a bottle of rubbing alcohol, which he then throws at Brock. COLE Alf obviously dumped some of that alcohol right over the head of Brock, and he has that open wound on his forehead, as does Alf! Alf follows Brock and tosses him into the conveniently placed stick which holds up a pile of small steel pipes. The pipes fall on Brock, then Alf grabs one and slams it on the back of Brock, causing it to bend on impact! Alf covers... 1... 2... Kickout! Brock quickly pulls Alf into the pile of pipes, then makes a getaway, climbing up the stairs. The camera follows him up the stairs, which lead to the main level, where fans swarm the scene as security attempts to hold them back. Brock staggers to the top of the stairs, when the elevator opens, and Alf runs out and delivers a bulldog to Brock! Alf picks up Brock and the two slug it out in the middle of the crowd of fans! CABOOSE And they're headed for the concession stands! Alf gets the better of the slugfest, knocking Brock to the floor. He then goes over and grabs some cotton candy, eating it on his way back over to Brock. COLE A little snack break here for Alf, it looks like, as we've hit the 40-minute mark in this match! Alf uses some of his cotton candy to rake the eyes of Brock! COLE Shades of George "The Animal" Steele, when he would use the turnbuckle stuffings for that same purpose! Alf shoves the whole thing, cone and all, right into the face of Brock. He then picks Brock up and rams his face into a counter. Brock rolls onto the counter, and Alf leans over it for a cover... 1... 2... Brock slips out and over to the other side of the counter. COACH Hey, hot dogs! Alf leaps over the counter and tackles Brock to the floor! Alf hammers away at Brock as the referee hops over the counter to join them. Brock delivers a low blow to Alf, then picks him up in a powerslam position...and carries him over to the FRYERS!!! COLE Oh, come on, now! COACH This is great! Brock's going to turn Alf's head into one giant funnel cake! Haha! CABOOSE Or maybe a deep-fried Twinkie, right? COACH Hey, I like that! :headbang: CABOOSE Oh, here comes that "agreeing" stuff again, I need to be more careful! Brock attempts to dunk Alf's head right into the fryers, as nearby fans scream. Alf thumbs Brock, however, and slips behind the back, then shoves Brock's hand into the fryer! COLE Oh NO! CABOOSE Chicken fingers for everyone! COACH Stop it! When Alf turns around to meet Brock again, he's met with a fry basket to the head! Brock then picks up Alf by the back of the pants and the neck and throws him head-first through a glass heating case! COLE Alf head-first through the glass! COACH Aw, man! All those pretzels, gone to waste! Brock quickly heads over towards the slushy stand, swiping a kid's cup along the way and pouring it on his hand. He then takes the lid off the machine and sticks his hand in it. Whe the vendor gives him a hard time, Brock knocks him cold on the floor with a left hand! Alf slowly makes his way over to Brock, who pulls his hand out and nails Alf, dropping him back to the floor! Brock walks over and grabs one of Alf's own T-shirts, and begins choking Alf out with it! Brock releases, then covers Alf... 1... 2... Shoulder up! COLE Two-count, as Alf and Brock continue to fight it out in the concession stands! Brock picks Alf up, and whips him into another counter, then clotheslines him over it! Alf lands sitting up against a cabinet, and Brock climbs over the counter. Brock discovers the nacho cheese dispenser, and starts squirting Alf in the face with the cheese! Brock then grabs a ready tray of nachos and slams them on Alf's head! COACH Well, I've had hair in my food before, but I've never gone out to eat and had food in my hair! Brock slowly picks up Alf, and gives him an overhead belly-to-belly, with Alf landing on the counter and falling off on the other side! Brock climbs over and covers... 1... 2... NO! Shoulder up! Brock picks up Alf, who grabs a beer vendor by the arm of his shirt, and pulls him into Brock! Brock, the vendor, and the beer tray all go crashing to the floor, as Alf grabs the tray and slams it over Brock's head. Alf then walks quickly (well, as quickly as he can at this point) over to a beer dispenser and sprays himself in the face, removing the cheese. COACH Alf should be more worried about his title than about a little cheese on his face! (There's a line you'll never hear uttered in a match.) Alf sprays Brock - and the vendor - with the beer, before coming off the counter with an elbow! Cover... 1... 2... NO! Shoulder up! Alf pulls Brock up, but Brock gets in another low blow! Brock then leads Alf back over towards the hot dog stand, and tosses him over the counter. He grabs ketchup and mustard guns and gives Alf a little shower, before putting the boots to him. Brock then grabs the beer dispenser, and hoses Alf down himself. He stops to spray a little into his mouth, drawing a cheap pop from nearby fans. Brock acknowledges them by raising his arms...then turns to have a pickle jar shattered over his head! Alf covers... 1... 2... 3!!! *DING DING DING* COLE There's a pin! Maybe a small ray of hope for Alf now! BUFFER [i]The winner of the sixth fall...ALFDOGG!!!!![/i] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ [b]Score[/b] Brock: 4 Alf: 2 Time remaining: 14:54 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ COACH I just can't see it, Cole! Alf's got to win two falls in 15 minutes just to *tie* this match! COLE And as the wrestlers make their way back to the ring area, let's find out what one of those falls will be, from Tony Schiavone! TONY Thanks again, Michael...well, Reject, maybe a little hope now, as the match is 3/4 done. And you finally get another chance to spin the wheel! Reject grabs the wheel, takes a deep breath, and spins. Rick Heyross' confidence is starting to chip a little bit, as the wheel stops. TONY A NUNCHUCKS-ON-A-POLE match! Just like any pole match, the participant has to climb the pole and grab the item before he can use it! This is the only item that can come into play in this match! Let's go back out to Triple C! (45:36)

*DING DING DING* Alf picks up Brock, and pitches him over the top rope. When Brock gets to his feet, Alf follows him out with a SOMERSAULT PLANCHA~! COLE And you know Alf's been waiting to do one of those legally! Alf hammers Brock on the floor, then picks him up and gives him a suplex on the floor! Alf then walks Brock over to the stretcher, and gives him a headbutt, sending him backwards onto it. COACH And Alf looking for a quickie right here! Alf pushes the stretcher about halfway down the aisle, before Brock comes to, then sits up and hammers away at Alf. Brock gets off the stretcher, and the referee pulls it back to the front of the aisle. Alf and Brock hammer it out in the aisleway, with Brock getting the better of the exchange, then picking up Alf and dropping him on the guardrail! COLE That would have been a DQ in the last fall, but of course anything goes in this fall! The only rule is to roll your opponent on the stretcher into the ambulance and shut the doors! CABOOSE And they're going for it quick! Brock has Alf and is now pushing him towards the ambulance! Brock makes it about halfway down the aisle, before Alf starts kicking him in the face. Alf then gets off the stretcher and chases Brock back to the ring. As Brock climbs back up onto the apron, Alf catches up to him and gives him a low blow! Brock falls through the ropes into the ring, and Alf climbs to the top rope, hitting Brock with a missile dropkick! Alf waits on Brock to get up, then delivers an overhead belly-to-belly! COLE And here come those suplexes! Alf catches Brock getting up and delivers a snap suplex! Alf then awaits Brock to get up once again, and delivers a T-Bone suplex! COACH And that was a very weak suplex, you can detect the extreme fatigue coming across Alf, and Brock for that matter. Alf charges at Brock, who backdrops him over the top, but Alf lands on the apron and thumbs Brock in the eyes! As Brock stands at the ropes, Alf springs to the top, then drops, catching Brock around the head and taking him to the outside with a hurricanrana! Alf grabs Brock by the leg, in an attempt to pull him to the stretcher. Brock pulls a chair out from underneath the ring with him, however, and when Alf forces him to his feet, turns around and SMACKS Alf in the head with it, sending him onto the stretcher! COACH YEAH! Wheel him, Brock, this one's yours! Alf is out, as Brock wheels him up the aisle to the ambulance. Brock rolls him up the ramp... COLE He's in! Alf is in the ambulance, but before shutting the doors, Brock stops to talk trash, and is met with a bedpan to the skull! COLE Wow, did you hear that? Alf turns over on the stretcher, and rolls down the ramp. The referee returns to stretcher to its starting point as Alf hammers Brock with the bedpan some more! CABOOSE I hope Alf put gloves on! Who knows what's been in that thing! Brock tries to get away, but Alf follows him and clotheslines him to the floor from behind! Alf then picks Brock up and whips him into the side of the ambulance! COLE And Brock goes hard right into the side of that ambulance! Alf drags Brock back up the aisle, and suplexes him onto the stretcher! Alf then pushes the stretcher down the aisle, stopping in front of the ambulance to hammer Brock with the bedpan some more. However, Brock blocks the bedpan, and gets off the stretcher. Brock gives Alf a foot to the gut, and has possession of the bedpan. Alf goes down, but grabs the chair that Brock used on him earlier. Brock brings the bedpan back to give Alf a shot, and Alf comes up and LEVELS brock with the chair! COLE NOW, get the stretcher Alf! However, Alf doesn't get the stretcher, instead setting up four tables a few feet from the ambulance. CABOOSE What is Alf doing? Alf then grabs Brock, picks him up and sets him on top of the tables. COLE High-risk for Alf here, if this pays off, then he can definitely put Brock in that ambulance! If he misses, though, I think this is do-or-die time! Alf scales the ambulance as the crowd buzzes. Alf looks out to the crowd, then jumps off for the FIVE-STAR ALF SPLASH~!!!!!11111 ...but Brock moves, taking a bump to the concrete himself, as Alf crashes through all four tables! TRIPLE C :o COACH Oh man, that's it! Dumb move by Alf, a big risk I don't think he really needed to take! CABOOSE I'll have to...uh... COACH Come on.;) CABOOSE ...agree. COACH Atta boy! CABOOSE :throwup: Brock slowly recovers, and pulls Alf out of the wreckage, taking him back to the ring in a fireman's carry. Brock rolls Alf into the ring, himself just wanting to make sure, and delivers the F-STUNNER-5~!!!!!11111 COLE And that's the exclamation point on this fall! COACH And the match! COLE Remains to be seen, but it's looking like you're right at this point! Brock tosses Alf over the top, and puts him on the stretcher. Brock easily wheels him up the aisle, and into the ambulance, then shuts the doors. *DING DING DING* COLE And Brock Ausstin has won four out of five falls over Alfdogg! BUFFER [i]The winner of the fifth fall...BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRROCK AUSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSTINNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN NN!!!!![/i] Knight leaps to his feet once again, repeatedly pumping his fist . ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ [b]Score[/b] Brock: 4 Alf: 1 Time remaining: 22:02 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ COLE Peter Knight definitely loves what he's seeing right now. CABOOSE To think, these two hated each other six months ago. COACH Knight hates Alfdogg. Brock hates Alfdogg. Ergo, Knight and Brock both hate Alfdogg. Is that too complicated? CABOOSE Did you say "ergo"? COACH I can talk English gooder than you think. COLE Back to Tony! TONY OK...spin the wheel, Mr. Heyross! Nothing can break the spirits of Rick Heyross at this point, as he spins the wheel and watches it land. TONY The next fall will be FALLS COUNT ANYWHERE! I don't think I need to elaborate on this one. Back to Sofa Central! (38:28)

I tried my hand at the three-man announce team for the first time, as well.

Thunderkid vs. Reject vs. Charlie Moss vs. Quentin Benjamin Winner gets shot at the Heartland title on HeldDOWN~! This one will definitely be late...I'm not even sure that the one I'm working on right now will be on time.

The Pacers are now 0-3 against the Hawks. Splendid.

We had Landon Turner at IU, he was on the '81 national champs and was named to the all-tournament team. A few months later, he was in a car accident and paralyzed from the chest down. The Celtics picked him with the last pick of the '82 draft as a nice gesture.

Ruben Patterson?

Maggette & Boozer (and Luol Deng, a little farther down the road) should appear in many All-Star games in the future, but then there's health concerns with both of them as well. And being an IU fan, I'm admittedly not one to talk about lack of transition from a college to the pro level.

I thought Orton in his feud with Foley was on level with HHH in 2000. But then, I've never agreed with the sentiment that HHH was some sort of wrestling God in 2000, anyway. Perhaps the most overrated wrestler in history during that period. I actually think he's better now than he was then, as he's shown he can have good matches with inferior workers, such as Batista. But on topic, I agree...I mocked his heatless face run like pretty much everyone else, but the Orton hate is the most ridiculous fad on the board right now.* I would have loved to see the reaction if my WM scenario happened that I posted here before, with Taker going over Angle at NWO and jobbing to Orton clean at WM, ending the streak and giving Orton the title all at once. * - notice I said "on the board"...you haven't seen the recent wave of hatred for Kurt Angle at NMB (don't get me wrong, though, I like posting in their wrestling folder, despite savagerulz's attempts to singlehandedly make it as unreadable as the one here). He's apparently, according to one poster, "barely better than an indy spot monkey." Oh yeah, when are you coming back to the OAOAST.

However, the only Duke product with an NBA championship ring is Danny Ferry, with the 2003 Spurs.

Lakers looking pretty impressive against the Kings. In what may or may not be a coincidence, Lamar Odom is looking more involved than I've seen him this season.

Grant Hill, to name one. Elton Brand, as well.

Fallout from Zero Hour. I won't spoil anything, but I'd like to call the ME for the HL title match.

*DING DING DING* COLE But as we've just seen, Coach, Alf can also win a match by keeping it on the mat as opposed to taking it to the air! Alf goes to work on Brock, delivering a back suplex! Alf follows with a clothesline, then a second which sends him over the top to the floor! CABOOSE Now that's not a DQ if you *knock* them over the top, you just can't *throw* them over, am I correct? COLE That's right. COACH And now Brock has time ro rest, because under NWA rules, there's no brawling out on the floor! So he can take a nine-count out there! COLE And it looks like that's what he's going to do! Brock does take a nine-count before climbing back in, and challenges Alf to a test of strength! Alf slowly puts his hand up, and Brock promptly grabs it and twists it! COACH Another dumb move by Alf! Alf hangs on, and thumbs Brock in the eye! CABOOSE But a smart move there, that's what you said earlier! COACH No, that's a cheap move! That's what I said! CABOOSE No. Alf fires off right hands on Brock, then hits a dropkick which sends him through the ropes, but he stays on the apron. Alf brings him back in with a suplex! Cover... 1... 2... Kickout! Alf whips Brock into the ropes, and waits on him for a clothesline, but Brock runs right through him with one of his own! Brock stops to pose, then whips Alf into the ropes and puts his head down, receiving a foot to the face for his miscue! Alf follows up with a fisherman's suplex! 1... 2... Kickout! Alf waits on Brock again, and executes a small package! 1... 2... Kickout! Brock quickly rolls to the outside once again, and the referee backs Alf off. Brock walks around the ring, taking an eight-count before climbing back in. Alf pounces, hammering Brock on the ropes, and when Brock reverses an Irish whip, goes for a sunset flip. Brock, however, pulls Alf up by the ears and gives him an overhead belly-to-belly! COLE And Brock Ausstin once again showing off his tremendous strength! Brock picks up Alf, and whips him into the corner, following him in with an avalanche! Brock shoves Alf forward to the mat, then turns him over and drops an elbow! Brock backs into the ropes and drops a second one! Cover... 1... 2... Shoulder up! Brock delivers some kicks to Alf's midsection, then picks him up and takes him over with a double underhook suplex! Brock then gets to his feet and waits on Alf to stand... COACH Uh oh, Brock could be looking for the Katahajime here! Alf gets to his feet, and Brock comes behind him and hooks the KATAHAJIME~!!! COLE Katahajime hooked, and this could well secure another fall for Brock Ausstin! Alf struggles to try to get to the ropes, but Brock drops to the mat with the hold! Alf reaches for the ropes, but Brock keeps cranking and Alf slowly fades. The referee checks his arm... 1!!! 2!!! Alf holds through! Alf puts his hand on the mat, and rolls himself over into the ropes! COLE And Alf somehow able to survive the Katahajime of Brock Ausstin! Brock releases the hold after the four-count, and then picks Alf up and drives him with a running powerslam! Cover... 1... 2... NO! Alf gets the shoulder up! Brock gets frustrated, and starts complaining to the referee. He then goes over to Alf in the corner, but Alf delivers a right hand! Alf slugs his way out of the corner, then attempts an Irish whip. Brock reverses, then drops down and Alf hops over. Alf ducks a clothesline, then Brock attempts a spinebuster, but Alf is able to swing around and counter with a DDT! Both men are out on the mat, and the referee begins his count! 1!!! 2!!! 3!!! 4!!! 5!!! 6!!! 7!!! 8!!! Alf sits up, then gets to his feet. COLE And Alf the first to recover, as a half-hour has gone by! We're at the halfway point of this match! Brock gets to his, as well, and Alf whips him into a corner. Alf runs to the corner, and Brock sticks a foot up, but Alf catches it, sets it down, and delivers a stiff right to the jaw! Alf delivers knees to the midsection of Brock, then sets him up on the top rope. Alf follows Brock up, and takes him down with a HURRICANRANA! COACH NO WAY! That's a top rope move! He should be disqualified! COLE No, only if you jump off the top onto your opponent! Alf picks up Brock, and goes for a vertical suplex. However, Brock's feet knock the referee to the mat on the way up! Alf tries it again, and Brock slips behind the back and hits a German suplex! The referee comes to, runs over and counts... 1... 2... 3!!! NO! Alf slips out! COACH Tough break for Brock right there! CABOOSE Tough break for Brock? The referee getting knocked down is what allowed him to regain the advantage! Brock picks up Alf, and drives him with a gutwrench powerbomb! The referee counts... 1... 2... Kickout! Brock hops up, incensed at the referee. CABOOSE Referee out of position on that one, and Brock letting him know about it! Brock picks up Alf, and sets him up in the corner. Brock follows him up. COLE What could Brock be looking for here? COACH I dunno, belly-to-belly off the top, possibly? Alf grabs Brock, and headbutts him down to the mat! Alf then steps up to the top... COLE Oh no, Alf, what are you doing??? Alf leaps off and hits the FIVE-STAR ALF SPLASH~!!!!!11111 But the referee calls for the bell! *DING DING DING* COLE Oh, no! Alf's been disqualified! He forgot about the rules! CABOOSE Well, I think it's instinct for him to hit that move when the opponent's in that position, Cole. He's been pounded on for about a half-hour now, and he's thinking more in terms of survival. BUFFER [i]The winner of the fourth fall, by disqualification...BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRROCK AUSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSTINNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN NN!!!!![/i] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ [b]Score[/b] Brock: 3 Alf: 1 Time remaining: 28:52 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Knight high-fives someone sitting next to him and laughs as he applauds Alf's mistake. COLE Take it, Tony! TONY All right, big fall for Brock Ausstin, it's now 3-1! You know what this means, Rick Heyross, spin the wheel! Heyross gives the wheel a spin, and once again likes the result. TONY It's a STRETCHER-TO-AMBULANCE match! COLE I've never heard of that one, explain! TONY Well, it's just like it sounds, a combination of a stretcher match and an ambulance match! To win, you have to put your opponent on the stretcher, which you'll see sitting at the front of the entranceway, and roll him to the other end of the entranceway, where you'll see the ambulance pulling in right there! A ramp will be placed at the back of the ambulance, and you must roll your opponent on the stretcher up that ramp and into the ambulance to win the fall! If the wrestler gets off of the stretcher, the referee will then roll the stretcher back to its starting point, and we repeat the process! Back out to Sofa Central! (31:38)

Wow, this *is* a weak FA class, isn't it. In seriousness, though, Pollard and Croshere come off the books (over $14 million) this summer, and I wouldn't necessarily mind seeing him back here depending on how much money he's going to command. EDIT: I stand corrected...Croshere has one more year. Disregard that. However, that does mean Bender and Croshere both come off next summer, which is about $15 million. That could be huge with that FA class.

CW, where did you hear about that Harrington-Griffin trade? I'm finding nothing about it yet.
