The Ghost of bps21

"yeah but he wasn't worth the deal in the first place" Then they shouldn't have offered it. If you want to place blame...can you blame the player for signing?

I've never had a problem with players not wanting to take paycuts. The team can cut a player from a contract at any time...so I think it's more than fair that a player says "Fuck off" when the team asks for him to take less money. Ty Law is a GREAT player. It's not as if his play fell off and he's worth less than he was when he signed the deal.

I wouldn't say he's too powerful at all. Toney didn't knock Jirrov out...and Toney is more powerful than Mesi. Mesi is the favorite though...and I'm very curious to see what shape Jirrov is in moving up.

I predict lots of blood on the undercard. I'm predicting two decision victories tonight. One for Jirrov and one for Mosley. I know more about Mesi/Jirrov going in so I'll comment on that: Mesi may be my hometown guy...and I actually do believe there is talent there...but he's facing a lefty and a more talented fighter than he's stepped in the ring with. What makes this fight great is that it should just be a war. One of the guys could get knocked out by a series of punches...but I don't think either can knock the other out with one shot...so it should be a nice long fight with two guys who will stand and throw. I know that Mesi showed up to the weighin in the best shape of his career at 227. Which is lighter than I expected. Jirrov came in at 212...heavier than I expected...and my paper said he looked fit, but slightly puffy. After last fight's lack of effort in late rounds against Barrett...I'm not shocked that Mesi took his training more seriously. But he better be ready to go the distance, or Jirrov will just take all the late rounds and he'll lose.

Even if Brock wanted to wrestle...he wouldn't go to TNA. He'd wait for Vince to give him less dates.

There was the report months ago that New Japan would enter into a deal with TNA, even providing financial assitance, if they could secure One of the following three people to a contract: Goldberg, Brock or Angle. The purpose was for TNA to be able to secure them bookings in New Japan. Brock and Angle were always impossible due to their long contracts. Even if TNA became profitable and competitive...there was still no way. On the other hand, depending on what kind of plan New Japan had in the form of money and talent supplied to TNA...pursuing Goldberg might not be the worst idea ever...but it would be close.

TNA could never afford Goldberg. Brock doesn't want to wrestle...and even if he did...he's still under WWE contract. Also...TNA could never afford Brock.

I loathe RPGs more than anything in games. I have played some...and thoroughly enjoyed only one. Knights of the Old Republic...AND I HATE STAR WARS. Give it a rental. I hated the idea of it too...but everyone said how great it was...and they were right.

Adam Sandler. Not even close.

Just watched it on tape. Excellent show.

I'm confused as to what this Television show would be... The article talks about them running two shows a week...which means they'd still be doing the weekly ppvs. Now...with their seeming to want the ppvs to be match-brief backstage interview-match-brief backstage interview-match...and so on...some kind of TV would probably be a good idea for storyline purposes. It could try and push the wednesday shows as an actual event...with storylines and matches that lead up to the show. My confidence in that: A: Working and B: Them sticking to that is very low...and will be until they show me that they understand a few basic ideas in their product. 1. Jarrett needs to drop the title. The match with the hasbeens isn't coming. Take the damn thing off. 2. They have enough talented people that the shows should be good every week...and when you bring in guys from AAA and Canada...and the show is better than usual with NONE OF YOUR OWN TALENT ON IT...that's not good. 3. There is dead weight to be trimmed...and underused talent to be pushed all over the place. It's great that Styles and Abyss are in the think of things...but it's starting to actively piss me off that Truth is stuck with overpaid crap like B.G. James and Konnan...and CM Punk is somewhere below that. Styles, Abyss, Punk, Truth, Sabin, LowKi, Daniels, Skipper, Dutt, Kazarian, Shane, Kash, AMW, Diamond and Swinger, Naturals and even the "WWE rejects" like Raven, Rhodes, DLo and Jarrett (who needs to take some time off from the show...and get his priorities in check. Jarrett may not be a great worker...but he's certainly better than what he's done in a TNA ring) provides ample talent to provide an actual entertaining alternative... Oh yeah...and they could pretty much have their choice of indy talent to bring in for at least a show or two to freshen things up. Not everyone will want to sign a TNA contract...but they've gotten away from having fresh blood on the shows (with the exception of the X Cups) and the same stale taste is permeating TNA that has RAW and Smackdown for the last year.

Send both RVD and Booker over. They need two uppermidcard/can fill in main eventers for a month guys anyway. Have them drop the belts at Mania...then get pissed at each other and have them constantly fight and destroy each other...and have Bisch trade them because he's sick of it. That way...Edge being traded for two people makes his return that much bigger... "Have JR say somthing like...what superstar is RAW getting that's worth these two guys?" Then Edge returns and it's an even bigger deal. And Booker and RVD move on to greener pastures that might even keep Van Dam happy enough that he'll re-up.

Watched it. Loved it. Didn't understand it.

WWE should have fired that WCW castoff Steve Austin because it made them look minor league.

If Tim Minear is involved I'll bet that the show features a lot of character development.

Henson to Dallas for third round pick.

What is TWC?

They are airing the pilot first. The next episode though...is the ELEVENTH episode shot

That can be an annoyance...but being able to tape two things at once still rocks. I'm shocked how many things I watch now that are on opposite each other. It really changes the way you watch TV. At night, instead of flipping through what's on...you can sit and watch anything you wanted to see that day.

They could put those Buffy DVD's out quickeer too. They're about to finish up in Region 2...and we're waiting a while for season 6.

"The Mania of WrestleMania" is WrestleMania the movie? No wonder they changed the name. A movie isn't an hour long with commercial breaks.

70 Canadian?...that's like 4 dollars.

At the rate they release these things...the current Simpsons season will come out in the year 3000
