Curling: The Next Big Thing

"I'm not very good, so they're having me squash the cruisers to make me look better than I am. I'm all packaging, no substance. Sorry."

::flexes::

It was called "Today's Special", actually. The mannequin would "freeze up" when his hat fell off. I think there was also a puppet mouse character. My little brother watched it all the time.

I liked that Alex (?) kid -- when he started he was short then grew like a weed... Alastair? I don't see any Alex's listed: http://www.ycdtotv.com/cast/index.html

Batista is too old to be considered the future, and Orton still has a ways to go. Edge has a head start since he's been there for a while already. I'd buy Edge as a ME'er over Orton.

Oh, shit! MEMORIES~! I may actually try to catch YCDTOTV today. Hopefully it's an earlier show (i.e. with Moose, Lisa, Kevin, etc.) and not a later show.

NewsRadio - quirky little show that really fell off after Hartman's death. And, as a side note, they did an homage to the St. Elsewhere ending in one of their episodes.

They just decided to stay with Dupree hailing from France, while changing Le Res to hailing from Quebec. I don't recall any reason, it just happened.

Root for the Lakers, or root for Larry Brown? That's lose/lose for me. I guess I'll pull for the Pistons by default, but if it was any other team out of the west, I'd be pulling fir them.

Rey over Dupree so Jindrak can look strong by beating Rey at the PPV. Wow, bad show, but I'll still be watching/taping. Jamie Knoble = ratings. Great job w/ Book on SD. They could have built him up to have a run w/ Eddie through the summer, where Book would be a credible challenger ( ::gasp:: ). Instead they opt to massage Taker's ego, leaving Book dead in the water for a lame feud w/ Cena.

I believe Burrell is tied for 4th in the NL in RBI. As for more runs, Abreu has Thome & Burrell hitting behind him, while Burrell is usually batting 5th, leaving the bottom part of the lineup behind him. Of course Bobby is going to score more runs than Pat, especially w/ Lieberthal doing nothing behind him.

I've heard the "pigs will eat everything" story, too. Pull the teeth, smash them up real good w/ a hammer & flush them, feed everything else to the pigs.

Do we really need spoiler tags for matches that are 9 years old?

I would have preferred to let Glanville hit, then pinch hit Abreu for Michaels if needed.

I'm still picking Burrell over Abreu. Pat's been better defensively than Abreau, IMO (just watched Pat make 2 great diving catches to save potential runs tonight). I'm just not feeling Abreu this year.

One can only hope.

Agreed. They were fine until that then the match went to hell. Plus Orton was going back to the rest hold crap and the finish was like..."huh?" That's not too good, considering that was very early in the match.

Didn't UPN just renew SD? And doesn't it pull the highest ratings for the network? Unless ratings fell to sub-2.0, I don't think they're in any danger of cancelling SD.

Bruce Prichard can eat a dick. SD is having problems, ratings are down, match qualities are down, having problems filling out TV shows & PPV's, and they have these young, athletic guys who could get the crowd going, so obviously the answer is to make them comedy jobbers.

Getting back to kickball, back in 3rd grade, we used to play every recess. I was in Catholic school, and the grade was divided into 2 classes (i.e. 1 teacher had ~15-20 kids, another teacher had the other ~15-20), so we'd play 1 class against the other. Whenever my team won, we'd do the Redskins "fun bunch" group high five. Being the tallest, I wouldn't jump, though. Man, those were some fun times.

Why did Kane get DQ'd? For bringing the chair into the ring?

I think I'd rather watch paint drying on growing grass than watch Kane wrestle.

And that's different than what they do w/ Hurricane...how?
