Haven't you given up trying to talk football yet? Edit - I'm not talking to Cena's Writer

I'm reading it in chunks as its 188 pages.

I wonder if Mtv ran their wrestling program a few times already to spread the word on all the deathmatch shit they did.

Hugh's a Brit.

I wasn't planning to start the thread until the lineup came out but this is probably for the best. Now I wont speculate further in the CWDWAT. It's not really 'ridiculously expensive'...to use a few eaxamples: It is far cheaper than Coachella, with much longer sets for the performers. It is barely more expensive than a Minnesota festival called '10,000 Lakes' that refuses to branch out from the lame jamband genre. Its a bit cheaper or about the same price as a lot of country music festivals that feature only one stage of music. When the tickets do go on sale (there were a few pre-sale tickets available about a month ago and went in about an hour...regular tickets will be up for grabs after the lineup is announced) they'll be about $200. That includes camping and parking for the weekend. You should have until at least May to buy tickets. Even with Radiohead, Tom Petty, Beck, and Oysterhead last year they didn't sellout until a few weeks before the event. The vibe there is really fun & relaxed. Security is negligible at best. If you dont act like a total retard you can get away with most anything. Some people do get arrested every year but just dont be a twit about what you do and all should be cool. The music runs almost around the clock from Thursday to Sunday night around Midnight. Headliners get a 4 hour block and nobody gets less than an hour. In the campgrounds you can find pretty much anything you are looking forward to. Unlike last year, this year's headliners remain a big mystery. Pearl Jam had been generally accepted for awhile but now they definitly won't be there. The Police might reunite but that is also far from confirmed.

That Kansas-Nebraska game last night was brutal.

Christ. Please, just stop this shit you goddam schoolmarm.

'bout time.

Teddy K is chewing up the opposition to the minimum wage increase & washing them down with Cutty Sark on the floor of the Senate.

'The Draft' wouldnt be the thing to worry about.

There's a Hillary complaint you dont hear every day.

Tickets for the highly anticipated super fight between Oscar De La Hoya and Floyd Mayweather sold out in three hours Saturday afternoon at MGM Grand's box office and thru TicketMaster's website. More than 5,400 tickets for the fight, Saturday, May 5 at MGM Grand in Las Vegas, were devoured by fans eager to help establish the record-breaking live gate of $19 million. The previous record was $16,860,300 for the November 13, 1999 Lennox Lewis vs. Evander Holyfield II championship event at the Thomas and Mack Center. "This is a huge success right out of the gate, unparalleled in boxing and underscores the importance and magnitude of this sporting event," said Richard Schaefer, Chief Executive Officer of Golden Boy Promotions. "We are now in the process of setting up a record number of closed circuit locations in Las Vegas to ensure that any and all boxing fans can be part of this 'Super Fight Weekend.' I urge fans to make their reservations now to be in Las Vegas on May 5." -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tomorrow De La Hoya will officially announce who will train him for his upcoming 'Super Fight' against Mayweather Jr. -fightnews I'm going to go ahead and say that this is the biggest non-heavyweight fight of all time. It will pass 1.5 million buys and, very possibly, 2 million.

Hilary's not going to win the conservatives over anyway. What she did was noticeably silly enough not to offend the people she COULD win over, while helping by making her look more like an actual human. When asked about it later she first said something like "You guys keep saying I need to open up more & be funny...I thought I was funny, now Im being psychoanalyzed." She said that with a smile too and really was the best response. Somewhere after that she got spooked again & went back into formica mode.

How will T.O. effect the outcome of the game?

I'm going to have Spicy McHaggis do my taxes this year.

Somebody asked something about how she would handle evil/bad men. She answered with something like, "Now what in my past would prepare me for handling evil or bad men?..." Then she gave a wide grin that appeared to be lacking its usual plastic, and the women in the crowd seemingly caught on just a bit quicker than the men, and they all shared a good chuckle. It was an ultimate rarity...Hilary Clinton being genuine & real on the stump. I personally doubt Bill would be upset about it and something like that seems fair enough to me since Hilary certainly has been thru some bullshit on the marriage end of things. If a little joke helps her mind on that front, and actually opens her up a bit, all the better I guess. Now she is denying it had anything to do with Bill. It was just about Bin Laden or some other nonsense, which obviously wouldn't have been a joke at all if it was. Too bad really. She seemed like she was maybe, finally, opening up a bit, which would probably end up being her biggest asset for '08.

Hillary made me laugh then said it wasn't about Bill after all. It just gets worse and worse with Bitchy McPantsuit.

How much of the Rex hate at Espn has to do with lingering anger from the experts being so incredibly inept at calling the NFC title game?

Or, maybe you shouldnt get all upset when we ask someone why they like McCain. If you cant say why you like the frontfrunner, you're not really going against the grain or thinking for yourself.

I'm only saying it probably wasn't a mainstream enough movie for a politician to try to cash in on. It did fairly well at the box office, considerably better with dvd sales/rentals, and Jude Law has only gotten bigger since. And, beyond that, it would make for a catchy slogan anyway.

Don't be such a twit. The media still loves the guy & if K can't explain why he still likes him in the face of his Hilary-esque disengenousness and terrible Iraq stance(s) then he's not really going against what he's told. Edit - That's meant for lovecraft and his ridulous/mindless defense of McCain.

I guess you're back to the whole trying-to-argue-for-the-sake-of-arguing thing.

Are we allowed to ask why? Or is that something terrible?
