Styles

He served in Vietnam!

Just as a pre-emptive warning that "fanboy" is actually a "fangirl" who claims to work high up in the Bush administration and she is likely to make a fool of you if you call her out. Just a friendly warning!

Here's an update from Jason Powell of the Pro Wrestling Torch (www.pwtorch.com) with quotes from Urlacher: "Meanwhile, Urlacher defended his participation. "I know a lot about wrestling, and it's a whole different thing than what we do in football,'' Urlacher said. "So I'm going to do what they tell me to do, try not to get anyone hurt or get myself hurt, and have a good time... 'I don't think there is (anything in the contract that forbids him from wrestling). 'I'm not doing anything that can get myself hurt, so they're probably not going to be too mad.'' Former Bear Jimbo Covert, who took part in the WrestleMania II battle royal at the same time he was under contract to the Bears, down played the possibility of suffering an injury in a wrestling ring. "There was no way you could get hurt,'' Covert said. ''It was so well-rehearsed, and there were mats everywhere. The agreement was I had to be out in the first five minutes. It ended up being like 25 seconds.''

I agree totally, they should be reffered to as "Not yet documented American friends you just haven't met yets" or Nydafyjhmy's......

"But I'm going to be President! The man in the tree said so!" "Come on, son, it's time for bed now." "See, you've got to understand, when I said Osama Bin Laden deserves a fair trial, I was trying to appeal to the Southerners who wear the white robes, well what I mean is priestly robes, I'm a very religious man you know, well except that last church I left because of lack of a bike trail, well actually it's because I hate children, well, no, no I don't mean that, what I mean is..." "And then I said, 'don't you know I'm a four star general..." (day dreaming): "...and in today's news, Joe Lierberman, Moderate for America proved his Joementum was for real, by winning every remaining primary..." "Do YOU have four stars on your apron? I didn't think so. So don't tell ME about what is and isn't sanitary food preparation." "Ahh, my friend, I knew you'd return. They all think I'm crazy, 'who are you talking to, General? What big fuzzy creature?', but we know better. Here, have a snausage!" "Dennis, your mother and I have been talking and we've decided you need to give up this crazy President fantasy of yours." "But People For The Ethical Treatment Of Rocks have endorsed me." "Come on Dennis, let's get ready for bedtime." "Hey, where are you going, did you know I'm a Vietnam veteran?......Call me."

Oh my god! I can totally see Dean smashing a guitar over his head too...

It's incredibily unfair, rewards bad behavior, creates more heroes and martyrs and only further jeapordizes Israel's citizens further. /progressive ignoramous Oh my god, come on Israel are a powerful terrorist nation funded by the US, those 300 innoncent prisoners were being held and probably tortured for no reason other than bullying or trying to get some running water. It's a miracle that The Soveirgn State Of Palestine even was able to capture one Israeli soldier since he probably had a gun and they have nothing but rocks. Maybe if Israel would stop taking their land and shooting their children, The Nation Of Palestine would have something worth living for and we can have peace. /progressive ignoramous

I thought it would be shocking and compelling...

Yup. I hope I made it clear in this thread, that it wasn't a big deal and that I was simply trying to recall as many spots as I could from the match. Rawmvp is the one who tried to blow my words out of proportion. The headscisors spot was, as I said, covered real well, but it looked a little akward. They showed the frogsplash at a different angle, from my angle it looked like he crashed onto Rikishi's face. And the spot where he almost was out turns out was just good showmanship by Eddie. The ref ran over and had his arms out but never actually touched him, my vantage was slightly blocked by the ring apron. Anyway, great match, eh? Viva La Eddie! Long Live The Eddie!

WHAT? Clark is a 4 star general that graduated top in his class from Westpoint!?! COME ON! Next thing you'll tell me, Hmmm...spoiler tags aren't working. I guess that kills the OH SO HILARIOUSNESS of it all...

Wow, that's quite the interesting article. Anyone else envision Joe Trippi as Vince Russo?

Just got back from Smackdown in DC! My friend who I went with keeps telling me how he got to meet a lot of the wrestlers at the garage entrance last time RAW was in town, so we went extra early to do the same. Problem was it was cold and sleeting outside. We hung aroung, and didn't see much. I noticed a guy wearing a WWE tag walking toward us, it was Harvey Whippleman! We said hello and I asked "How's Kamala" which caused him to do a double take and start laughing. My friend then told him he should be on TV to which he answered "its not my job anymore" before saying goodbye and walking off. We also saw Dawn Marie pull in her Durango and waved hello. We also saw Earl and Dave Hebner and Sgt. Slaughter walking into a chinese restaurant across from the arena. We said hello but decided against bugging them further. Before the doors opened, someone said "hey John Cena's signing autographs!" We thought he was joking but sure enough, Cena was there in the Modell's (sporting goods) store that's attached to the arena. He was buying something like 5 basketball jerseys and signing some autographs but was just leaving as we walked up to him. I guess "we couldn't see him" We had floor seats, off to the side of the announcer's desk. Last time my friend went to RAW he got to talk to Little Naitch Charles Robinson and starting retellling him the histoy of his time as WCW interim president and fighiting Gorgeous George we he apparently found very amusing. As they were setting up the ring, there he was helping out, so we called him over and seemed to recognize my friend but forgot his name. He introduced me, had a good laugh at me studying old WCW tapes and shook our hands before leaving to the back. The guy is just really nice, and I'd reccomend anybody who comes early to a show to stop to chat with him. Interesting to note, I felt kind of like I was at a TNA show when ICP were there because directly across from us were a group of ICP fans, Juggalos I guess decked out in ICP gear. Throughout the night they'd chant various ICP things, and also TNA and ECW stuff so we had some good times. First match I think was a dark match. Johnny The Bull and Palumbo vs. 2 jobbers who were supposedly from DC. Decent heat for the "hometown" boys. FBI won, forgot how though. Velocity: Chimmel introduced "Josh Mathews and his assistant, Michael Cole!" which was pretty funny. To be perfectly honest I don't really remember the finsihes to any of the matches, they were all pretty forgetable. Akio defeated Funaki. Funaki got a good pop, we tried a "Jimmy Yang" chant but it didn't go very far. Ultimo Dragon defeated Shannon Moore. HUGE pop for Dragon at his entrance but then it got deafly quiet during the match. O well. I'm pretty sure finish was his flipping reverse DDT thing. Sakoda over. S2H. Big shock here. Scotty was over huge but we were being dicks and cheering for Sakoda. He hit the worm, but Sakoda got out and got a win with his feet on the ropes! I got to slap hands with Taz as he came out and told him "FTW brotha" to which he nodded the affirmative and with his hand. Smackdown started out with Paul Heyman coming out. Big ECW chant from the Juggalos. And then immediately Vince came out to a huge pop. Vince talked down Heyman for letting Benoit, the winner of the Rumble go to RAW and asked him what he was going to do. Classic Heyman speech where he says he was going to do exactly what Vince Mcmahon would do. "When Hall and Nash jumped to WCW, what did you say? SCREW HALL AND NASH! and you created new stars. When Hulk Hogan left you, what did you do? You said SCREW HULK HOGAN! You screwed Bret Hart! (big "You Screwed Bret!" chant) Vince: " (very matter of factly)Yes I did". So Heyman says "Screw Chris Benoit" and tonight we're going to do the Smackdown Royal Rumble over again and declare a new winner who will face Brock at No Way Out for the title! Eddy replaces Benoit and Hardcore Holly replaces an injured Matt Morgan. All night long we were treated to really funny backstage sketches of Dawn Marie helping various superstars pick their numbers with dialogue about Dawn grabbing their balls and then Heyman getting pissed and belllowing how they have to grab their own balls. Funny stuff, really, especially since it was a running joke all night. ' Bashams defeated Kidman and PAUL LONDON!!!! ME and the JUggalos tried a "TNA" chant for London and gave Paul all the love in the world but no one else in the arena gave a shit. Kidman missed the SSP, Bashams win. Rey defeated Noble in a good match. EVeryone was cheering for Noble in our section yelling things like "White trash!" and "Redneck Messiah" good times. He started punking out Nidia, Rey stopped him, won with the usual. Afterwards Nidia takes of the glasses, showing she's not blind and leaves Noble. OOOOH~! There was a backstage segment where someone took Eddy out and Rey thinks it's Chavo. Chavo is there with Chavo Sr. and they claim innocence. Angle is also pissed about it and tells Heyman he better not give Eddie's spot to Chavo. Heyman says he'll play Eddy's music and if he can come out he can still be in the Rumble. Lesnar does an interview. HUGE Goldberg chants. Brock just generates HUGE heat. He insults the town and basically calls out Goldberg. He says its a privelage we even get to see him perform. He challenges any Smackdown superstar for a nontitle match. Everyone thought it would be Goldberg...it's....Orlando Jordan. Yeah. Basic squash, OJ got in some token dropkicks and such though. Fans were actually really into it though. Brock wins with the Brock Lock (stretch muffler). Royal Rumble was seriously excellent, and I don't think it was just because I was there live. Just really good work all around. The Juggaloes were huge into Rhyno chanting for him and chanting Juggalo at him. Everyone gangs up on the Big Show, Show fights them all off. Everyone's huge into Cena. Cena gets eliminated by Show but then from the outside helps eliminate Show. Funny spot sees poor Shelton Benjamin tied up in the ropes with Billy Gunn with Gunn's foot stuck across Shelton's throat, Haas came RUNNING over and carefully pried them apart, as Shelton collasped to catch his breath. Funny shit. After Holly was elimnated a pretty good nananan hey hey hey goodbye chant was done. Good riddance. Fans really into Eddie. Lots of Eddie chants. Eddie actually screwed up a few spots. He was supposed to a headscicors to eliminate Haas but he didn't go over so he had to kind of throw him over after. He also landed ackwardly on Rikishi with a frog splash like his knees going into Kish's face. Ouch. There was also a spot with Eddie and Angle both teasing going over the top and they nearly did, Eddy was this close to slipping off to the floor and one of the ref's RUSHED over and gave him a little lift back up. Woops! Rikishi gave everyone a stinkface, including a classic expression by poor Shelton before he got it. Angle and Eddie were the last 2. These 2 had a really good match with each other throwing suplexes at each other all over. Angle's neck is either better or he's going to seriously hurt himself. Eddie put Angle in the ankle lock. Lots of eliminaiton teases, finally Eddy flips Angle out for the win and has an emotional celebration. Crowd was into Eddie. He gave a thank you speech after and vowed to become the first MExican WWE champ at No Way Out for La Raza. Great way to end the show. We caught Earl Hebner again near the entrance stage and he was nice enough to give us autographs. I told him I thought it was an awesome show and complimented on the use of Eddie. We saw Orlando Jordan hanging around too and got his autograph. We jokingly told him to be careful and that must have been a hell of a match and he kind of shook his head and said "it was tough". Good show. The RUmble match I'm confident will come out just as good on TV. Viva la Eddie!!!

And he is.

So, Eddie Jordan, coach of the Wizards (hired before the season) now has the longest tenure of any head coach in the division? That's tremendous... I've stopped trying to keep track of all the new coaches by now, it's hard enough keeping track of the players...

Now how would THAT work?

Not only is he going to win Michigan and Washington, cerebus, but he's going to win South Carolina! And Missouri! And New York! And California! And Deleware! And Maryland! And North Dakota! And Arizona! And New Mexico! And then, he's going to Washington DC to take back the white house!!! YEARGHH!!!!!!!

Basically the mainstream realized what we have been saying all along...he's nuts!

Again, you don't need to agree with everything in the party! Hell, I disagree with just about everything in my party but I stay registered so I can vote in the primaries, why willingly leave yourself out of part of the process?

Democrat, but very independent/conservative minded. I agree registering Independent is just stupid because you take yourself out of part of the process by not being able to vote in the primaries. You can still vote for whoever you want otherwise....

I think I'm expecting the same thing as Jobber. What state will Clark win besides state of confusion?

I didn't like that one. At the least the other one's were well written, this one was just slapped together and without even a shred of possible credibility. I think it's time to give it up, the well is dry. I did like this though: Good lord...

Whatever, Lyndon Larouche and his supporters need to be wiped off the face of the earth anyway....

Wow, Clinton's a sneaky bastard. I can see some scheme where as he runs as Vice President, helps get a Dem elected (say Kerry). Kerry then immediately resigns his post as President, and boom 4 more years of Clinton! We're all doomed!
