I'm taking a chance next week... I have a 10 person roster with a lot of cheaper guys, hoping for another fluke like before with the Hearth Throbs getting so many points on Raw. I figure at the very least I'll get Heat points for once, although Conway has been showing up on Raw lately and Masters may be back this week too. I assume 5 of these guys will be champs this week too, so maybe some title retain points (maybe LOD will finally defend them?). Antonio, Carlito, Benoit, Masters, LOD 2005, Angle, Maria, Conway, Hurricane. Actually, I might not be taken as much of a chance as I thought... Antonio and Hurricane are the only questionable picks but they've been on Raw lately. Edit: Antonio is out, Nunzio is in.

The Bobby Hennan SummerSlam predictions are funny though people without a sense of humour might get mad at his comments about the Eddie/Rey match ("I think this is a very dangerous match. Do you realize there could be 40 or 50 guys running up that ladder? Then again, it’s Guerrero and Mysterio, so it’s only a 3 foot step ladder"). Foley's interview is good too as he did it from a "real" standpoint and mentioned turning down a program with Flair last year while discussing the Edge/Matt deal.

Tangy... I used to search for those around 2003 and enjoyed reading them. I intended to use them in my columns too, but, well... anyway, it's awesome that's it's organized for me to find!

Though many people assume Coliseum Video is a... word isn't coming to me right now, but a company that is really the same company as the parent company but has a different name and structure for tax purposes... blanket? Anyway, I saw a few years back something about a Coliseum Video Wayne Gretzky release, so I guess they did other things. Weird, eh?

In the event you haven't figured it out by now, just like Season 5, all the deleted scenes are on disc 4.

Don't forget the dreaded syndication cuts. It may not be a big deal but when you KNOW a joke is supposed to be there and it isn't.. argh. Syndication cuts out a whole set of jokes with Dr. Colossus in the 7th seasons "Who Shot Mr. Burns II" that I quite enjoy. I also enjoy commentaries from Groening and co., though if your DVD commentary experience is based on Family Guy I wouldn't blame you for questioning it as being worthwhile.

I knew I should have subbed out Matt for Orton (I have $500,000 not doing anything to make up for the cost). Matt doing nothing on Raw while I assume Orton will at least appear on SmackDown cost me some points.

Crisis averted, Canadians. Tennis has ended.

If this Golovin woman doesn't hurry up and beat this Sprem woman (who has a Triforce on her racket), this tennis match may have to go to a third set, delaying Raw on TSN. Ok, looking good, blonde chick just needs to win once more and the game is over.

Yep. Mmm-hmm.

Apparently the previously announced Stacy vs. Victoria match was cancelled because they forgot Victoria was promoting something overseas.

Fantasy Board already ruled Eugene/Angle is non-title, non-specialty in case yo uwere wondering. I'm wondering if in the next 55 minutes I should sell Matt for Orton to at least round out the Raw/SD balance, but I can't see it making much of a difference so I'll stick with what I have. That said, they'll probably announce Orton/Taker as a Casket Match on SmackDown! screwing me out of Specialty points. Then again, they could just as easily declare Matt/Edge a non-sanctioned street fight.

Didn't that preview used to say Stacy and Victoria had a match tonight? Ashley already got naked under the name Ryan MacKenzie and I've been thinking al llong it's Miss Elisabeth's to win, so she will.

Unrelated to anything here but congratulations HTQ on another Wrestling Professor Trivia victory. This week's Quiz is about the Observer itself so I suspect this is yours for the taking.

I received an e-mail from Andrew Martin from Pizza Pizza customer service aplogizing for a screwed up order. Since said pizza company is based out of Ontario, persumably Toronto, I assume that is in fact Test.

Is that why I can't buy or sell anyone? I made sure to fix my roster on Saturday (it's all Raw guys save for Rey and Batista, and I was hoping Rey would be getting Specialty Match points, which I now know he is... I think the rest is Angle, Eugene, Matt, Cena, and Jericho... Cena/Jericho are good for points tonight (specialty, no less) and Summerslam) but if so that sucks. I thought it was saying that noon is when scores are posted. Edit: "The deadline to make roster moves for Week 10 is Monday , August 15 at 7:00 PM ET" and I once again have Buy/Sell options for the week if I wish to change it up. You should be ok. Of note, I noticed a lot of people, even near the top of our league, have people like Hassan or Morgan on their roster, so I guess there is not a lot of interest in this thing.

While this isn't good when he decided to push himself and attempt to get no one else over but him, when he has to step aside, the fact remains that he loves the business and would want to do what's best for everyone in order to make money.

Can someone explain to me why papers hanging from the rafters are more offensive than rape, terrorists, or wishing your oppoenent dies in a car accident? Dave Scherer sounds really pissed. At least Meltzer just called it "absurd".

A caller, who sounded very well spoken and an all around smart guy, asked Meltzer on the radio show tonight about this. Meltzer confirmed it to be accurate but didn't have all the details. From what he knew, Frankie pitched an idea to a writer who said "Are you here for a lights out match?".

Example: Johnny Devine was sqaushed by Tomko in 10 seconds on Heat tonight.

Dude, you get to jump off a bed!

WWE.com confirmed the rumour that SummerSlam would be a ladder match.
