    Wrestling Roster Draft: Luxe & Reduxe

    It's only thirty rounds this go 'round. But yeah, you're right 4-12 isn't really the middle rounds. But I what say around that range are the rounds I find most fascinating. Early-middle rounds maybe is more accurate...I don't know.

    Wrestling Roster Draft: Luxe & Reduxe

    The only guys I really wanted and were taken from under me were guys that lasted IMHO longer then they should have. Thus I didn't really fully expect to get them and thus I wasn't horribly disappointed. I hated 909 for days during the last draft when he took Demolition from under me...is that a spoiler? Oh well.

    Sublime Re-Unite After 13 Years...

    I just read today that Ringo and Paul are reuniting to play some Transcendental Meditation benefit at Radio City next month. I didn't know boomers still went for that shit.

    Damn, Nikita is a steal at this stage. If I knew he was still on the board when I made my pick, I very well might have drafted differently.

    Wrestling Roster Draft: Luxe & Reduxe

    This guy was one half (or one-depending on which version) of the team I was going to pick if DDP and Jarrett had been drafted before my last pick. Nice steal...assuming no one's a dick...though I am a big fan of his later day WCW run. Dory Funk Jr. is also quite the steal IMHO at this stage of the game. He was high up there with guys I considered for my last two picks.

    Again, this is why I find the middle rounds (from about Round 4 to Round 12 or so) most fascinating. The last few rounds have been filled with a ton of steals and headscratchers (though not ones of Drury like proportions), sometimes one after another). Again, it's all so subjective.

    Nice pickup, Garth. He's been on my list of potential draft picks for the last three or four rounds.
  8. I'm a raspberry fan myself though boysenberry and blackberry are close runners up.

    Wrestling Roster Draft: Luxe & Reduxe

    Thanks. Again, I was incredibly close to picking a tag team but at this stage in the draft, you can't really pass up two borderline main-event guys. King Cucaracha- I was in the same boat. I was either going to go for both guys or neither. If sivy or Tominator had picked one of them, I would have gone with the tag team. These guys are a good fit together. Their series against each other for the WCW World title in '00 was pretty good IIRC (haven't watched the matches since they happened)

    I'm personally hoping for a Beatles reunion with Eric Clapton and Jeff Lynne taking the place of John Lennon and George Harrison.

    Wrestling Roster Draft: Luxe & Reduxe

    I was originally going to go with a tag team for this picks but since they aren't going off the board at the rate I thought they would, I'm going to cross my fingers and hope they'll be some good ones left on the board next go around. My next two picks are guys who have main evented plenty and held World Championships but I personally think are best suited for the upper mid-card. They'll be feuding for my secondary title. With my fifth pick in the All-Time Wrestling roster draft, I figured since my first two babyface picks were larger than life types, I needed a guy that the fans could relate to. He was perhaps one of the hardest working wrestlers of the late '90s and his rise from mediocre manager and commentator to World Champion was one of the bright spots in the mostly dreary final years of WCW. He's quite the capable worker and I see him working well with Batista and Brock Lesnar as well as the guy I plan on picking next. He's quite the steal at this point and for me, that's not a bad thing...it's a good thing. He's a three time former WCW World Champ, a two time WCW U.S. Champion, a four time WCW World Tag Team Champion, a former WWF Tag Team Champion, and a former WWF European Champion, with my next pick, I'm proud to select... Diamond Dallas Page This next guy isn't one of TSM's favorite wrestlers and I admit he really shouldn't ever be the center of a promotion. But there are few better suited for the role of antagonistic, wise ass upper mid-card heel and can fill in occasionally in the main event. He was also another one of the few bright spots in the final year or so of WCW. He's a four time WCW World Champion, a six time NWA World Heavyweight Champion, a six time WWF Intercontinental Champion, a three time WCW U.S. Champion, a former WWF Tag Team Champion, a former WWF European Champion, and the former NWA North American Heavyweight Champion, with my sixth pick in the All Time Wrestling Roster draft, I select... "The Chosen One" Jeff Jarrett

    Sublime Re-Unite After 13 Years...

    I'd be down with that. I know this is a joke but a Hootie and The Blowfish reunion just doesn't make sense. They just broke up last year. And Darius Rucker's country music career has been surprisingly successful but in ten years when the '90s nostalgia boom is in full swing, I expect them to play summer sheds alongside other innocuous '90s top 40 acts. Damn, Hootie and The Blowfish mentioned in two threads in one week? That must be some sort of record for here. I would start a thread but I don't think anybody here (myself- the innocuous '90s top 40 rock guru included) has heard any of their albums besides Cracked Rear View. And what's with all of the bands with dead singers reuniting in the past five years? First, The Doors (though they actually soldiered on for two albums after Morrison died in the '70s), then Queen (though I must say they put on a heck of a fun live show), then Blind Melon, and now this. Really, how much money are these bands being offered to slightly tarnish their legacies?

    Wrestling Roster Draft: Luxe & Reduxe

    Well the karmic justice for my stealing your idea was me not actually getting Kane or Abdullah. Really I shouldn't have expected Kane to last all the way back to me. I'm crossing my fingers that the two guys I'm planning to pick (who'd actually put on a muchbetter match and would be as much of a draw as those two) will make it back to me. Though perhaps I've said too much!

    Wrestling Roster Draft: Luxe & Reduxe

    Damn, I was planning on doing Kane Vs Abdullah as a freak show semi-main event. Oh well, my backup and my backup backup options are very very good.

    Good pick on Martel. He was certainly on my list for guys to pick next but fortunately not too high.

    Shit I have to read for High School

    We did Shakespeare every year in English class. Freshman year was Romeo and Juliet, sophomore year was Macbeth, junior year was King Lear, and senior year was Hamlet.

    I like it a lot as well but it doesn't matter as much to me since I have back to back picks anyways .

    Wrestling Roster Draft: Luxe & Reduxe

    Damn, the last two picks have hurt... Since people got mad at me last time for spoiling, I swear that'll be my last one.

    To be fair, there's more than one Road Warrior left on the board.

    Weird Girls In School

    Ashley: Girl in my 4th and 5th grade class that was absolutely obsessed with unicorns. Now this was the stage where liking unicorns was absolutely uncool. All of the creative writing assigments she did seemed to revolve around them, drew a bunch of pictures of them. She was also an obsessive clean freak. When a paper would fall out of her desk, she'd burst into tears. No exaggeration. She moved away before middle school. Last I heard of her, she was the mark in a somewhat elaborate, mildly amusing practical joke where she IMed one of our old classmates in 8th grade and they told her that me and a few other male classmates had formed a boy band called The Electric Sharks that was getting interest from Lou Pearlman.

    Damn, LOD were my top choice for a tag team. Back to the drawing board for that one.

    The Economics of Bacon

    Yeah, I remember watching an HBO documentary on cannibals and one guy said human meat tasted like the finest pork loin you'd ever tasted. I couldn't eat pork loin...well until whenever the next time my Mom made pork loin was. Yeah, I'm with Czech on this one. I like bacon quite a bit but why the sudden fawning over it? Seems kind of random. I've always been more of a breakfast sausage fan anyways.

    The Marvin countdown

    Is Kinetic going to come up with a video to commemorate Marvin's departure?
