"Hey, Mr. S!" I wasn't part of the draft but, had I been, Roy would've definitely been picked.

Not much of a spoiler but an answer to Craig's question:

GROUP A "Ring Of Fire" by Johnny Cash vs Respect" by Aretha Franklin "Cupid" by Sam Cooke vs "Sunshine Of Your Love" by Cream "The House Of The Rising Sun" by the Animals vs "She Loves You" by The Beatles "I Heard it Through the Grapevine" by Marvin Gaye vs "Good Vibrations" by Beach Boys GROUP B "Eight Days A Week" by The Beatles vs "Hey Jude" by The Beatles "You Really Got Me" by The Kinks vs "Fortunate Son" by Creedence Clearwater Revival "A Day in the Life" by The Beatles vs "Stand By Me" by Ben E. King "Daydream Believer" by The Monkees vs "Brown Eyed Girl" by Van Morrison GROUP C "Space Oddity" by David Bowie vs "Can't Help Falling In Love" by Elvis Presley "Street Fighting Man" by The Rolling Stones vs "My Generation" by The Who "Purple Haze" by The Jimi Hendriz Expierence vs "The Weight" by The Band "Heroin" by The Velvete Underground vs "God Only Knows" by The Beach Boys GROUP D "Venus in Furs" by The Velvet Underground vs "Tears of a Clown" by Smokey Robinson & the Miracles "Green Onions" by Booker T. and the MGs vs "Like a Rolling Stone" by Bob Dylan "Gimme Shelter" by Rolling Stones vs "Papa's Got a Brand New Bag" by James Brown "Norwegian Wood" by Beatles vs "What a Wonderful World" by Louis Armstrong

That's where the angle is headed.

I saw it...it's ok. I'd give it a 7 out of 10. Mickey Rourke rules though. I think Non-wrestling fans will like it more cause we're not really shocked about the descent of a wrestler after his prime. It's the norm.

For now, you're a TNA original if you didn't make your name in WWE or WCW originally...hence Creed in there despite still being a rookie.

Hey, you're right... The kissing family, Prison rape threats, Man-on-man painting, Snagglepuss, gay dancers, etc. With the exception of 1 or 2 skits, it was pretty much all-gay.

SNL was great last Saturday! Everything Paul Rudd does is gold (I'll conveniently forget that Eva Longoria flick). I believe I may have a full-on man-crush:

Just saw the B-movie "Dark Rising" with Christian Cage. As expected from a low-budget straight to DVD horror/comedy, it was pretty bad BUT it includes what is now one of my favorite death scenes in movie history:

GROUP A "Build me up Buttercup" by The Foundations vs "Ring Of Fire" by Johnny Cash "8 Miles High" by the Byrds vs Respect" by Aretha Franklin "Hang On Sloopy" by The McCoys vs "Cupid" by Sam Cooke "Sunshine Of Your Love" by Cream vs "She's Not There" by The Zombies "The House Of The Rising Sun" by the Animals vs "Sounds of Silence" by Simon and Garfunkle "Bonnie and Clyde" by Serge Gainsbourg & Brigitte Bardot vs "She Loves You" by The Beatles "I Heard it Through the Grapevine" by Marvin Gaye vs "Mr. Tambourine Man" by Bob Dylan "Good Vibrations" by Beach Boys vs "Folsom Prison Blues" by Johnny Cash GROUP B "Eight Days A Week" by The Beatles vs "Dance to the Music" by Sly & the Family Stone "My Way" by Frank Sinatra vs "Hey Jude" by The Beatles "My Girl" by The Temptations vs "You Really Got Me" by The Kinks "Dazed and Confused" by Led Zeppelin vs "Fortunate Son" by Creedence Clearwater Revival "Just Dropped In (To See What Condition My Condition Was In" by The First Edition vs "A Day in the Life" by The Beatles "Stand By Me" by Ben E. King vs "Visions of Johanna" by Bob Dylan "Daydream Believer" by The Monkees vs "Jumpin Jack Flash" by The Rolling Stones "Brown Eyed Girl" by Van Morrison vs "A Change Is Gonna Come" by Sam Cooke GROUP C "Space Oddity" by David Bowie vs "Oh, Pretty Woman" by Roy Orbison "Can't Help Falling In Love" by Elvis Presley vs "Only The Lonely" by Roy Orbison "Then He Kissed Me" by The Crystals vs "Street Fighting Man" by The Rolling Stones "Crimson and Clover" by Tommy James and the Shondells vs "My Generation" by The Who "Gloria" by Them vs "Purple Haze" by The Jimi Hendriz Expierence "The Weight" by The Band vs "Bad Moon Rising" by Creedence Clearwater Revival "Time of The Season" by The Zombies vs "Heroin" by The Velvete Underground "God Only Knows" by The Beach Boys vs "Reach Out, I'll Be There" by The Four Tops GROUP D "Venus in Furs" by The Velvet Underground vs "Catch The Wind" by Donovan "I Want You Back" by the Jackson 5 vs "Tears of a Clown" by Smokey Robinson & the Miracles "Green Onions" by Booker T. and the MGs vs "Turn, Turn, Turn" by The Birds "Like a Rolling Stone" by Bob Dylan vs "(Sittin' On) The Dock of the Bay" by Otis Redding "21st Century Schizoid Man" by King Crimson vs "Gimme Shelter" by Rolling Stones "Papa's Got a Brand New Bag" by James Brown vs "Break on Through" by The Doors "Norwegian Wood" by Beatles vs "Scarborough Fair" by Simon & Garfunkel "What a Wonderful World" by Louis Armstrong vs "Come See About Me" by The Supremes

I half-agree. I don't think Joe is getting "buried"...at least not on purpose. TNA's booking just backfires on them more often than not. They obviously wanted Joe to look strong in defeat so they have him kick out of TWO separate jackknife powerbombs that were sandwiched by numerous exposed turnbuckle shots no less. Joe is looking BAD ASS! Then, he gets a low blow/roll up/feet on the ropes combo and it's over. Really? After all that punishment, Nash steals it (which I have no problem with) but in pretty tame/anti-climactic fashion. TNA: "We protected Joe". Well, I know what you were going for TNA but, in the end, the man who can survive all that punishment looks kinda silly when losing so "lamely" (is that a word?).

It's pretty much the beginning of the nWo angle again so yeah...the MEM dominated. I don't think it was a mistake to do so though. If Joe & AJ had won, I'd already lose my interest in the angle since it'd be pretty much over. As long as the Originals get their revenge at the end, they won't "WCW" this thing. That may be too much to ask from TNA but, IMO, so far so good.

1- Kevin Steen / El Generico 2- The Miz / John Morrison 3- Chris Jericho 4- Santino Marella 5- BEER! MONEY! Honorable Mention: Most of the TNA Knockout Division (Kong, Beautiful People, Roxxi, ODB, Wilde)

Depending on the speed, I can record either 1, 2, 4 or 6 hours per DVD. I tend to stick to 2 hours (SP mode) because the picture gets too pixellated after that. 6 hour mode looks like shit and I use 4 hour mode only when transferring old 3 hour wrestling PPV's.

I really enjoyed the "Ras Trent" digital short. It's been playing non-stop in my head since it aired...

I saw it 2 weeks ago (was at the Hollywood premiere)...It's okay. When it comes to Smith movies, I still prefer Chasing Amy, Dogma & Clerks.

ECW logo shirt (circa 1998) WWF: - Bret Hart (circa 1994 with the World belt on Bret's shoulder) - Shawn Michaels "all-over" shirt from 1995 - Sunny "I like it RAW" shirt WCW: - nWo - Bret Hart shirt by Starter - Classic WCW logo shirt WWE: - Triple H "No Foreplay" shirt (2002) - Rey Mysterio - No Way Out 2003 shirt (I was at the show) - Chris Benoit crossface shirt (2004) - Eddie Guerrero brown 1967-2005 shirt Indy / IWS: - El Generico - Kevin Steen

Good show = Good rating? That concept's so crazy it just might work!

The Wrestling Match Draft from this past summer is a damn good index for what to watch: http://forums.thesmartmarks.com/index.php?showtopic=90946

While we can keep saying "Hey, it was a roast!", I'm sure Bob Saget wouldn't have appreciated a bad Dave Coulier joke...y'know, had Dave Coulier somehow died tragically in the past decade. Maybe via Alanis Morrissette getting her revenge... Not the best example, is it?

Robin seemed awfully close with Barney a year in the future...
