Your Paragon of Virtue

Gun control is not about banning guns, it's about making them harder to obtain, so that not anyone who is irresponsible can have one. We're not talking about getting rid of them altogether.

Maybe Stephen Joseph is an economist (maybe, we don't know for sure) but until he actually backs his opinion up with some facts his argument is complete and utter trash. I'm not taking sides here, just saying that Mike and SJ have to actually come up with why they think the article is stupid, as opposed to being all snobby and saying "This article is stupid, if you don't know why nothing I say will convince you".

Could you point me to the sites you use for free downloading? It seems all sites I click on that advertise FREE are lying 'cause they actually ask you for your CC or something. Thanks in advance. As for the getting them for free or not debate, I think $0.10 per song is completely a bargain so I don't mind it. It eases up a bit the "guilt" you might get for downloading free. And it sure beats that Kazaa shit, where you don't know if you're getting a damaged file, complete silence, or an endless loop of the song's chorus. At least on mp3search.ru you get the full song with no errors. Person to Person servers. Remember Napster? Shit like that.

I see, do you have any opinions of him as a prospect, and what his potential might be? I have a real question for you man; how are you so knowledgable about baseball in general. Is it a purely statistical thing, as in you work off of that to evaluate players or do you have a knowledge of the game itself, like you can tell the subtle differences between players that mainly experience would tell you? Stuff like noticing nuances in a pitcher's form or the sweetness of a swing, etc. Have you ever thought about making a living doing something in baseball, anywhere from writing to helping out a team themselves? It's a shame that you're wasting your skills, if you have them, because I wouldn't know that much, on the other baseball folk here at TSM. It's a nice gesture, but surely if you could you'd have much more fun working with the game.

I thought it would one of the American Evangelists like Jimmy Swaggart or Pat Robertson or something.

Good or bad?

Just saw Enson-Igor again today. My Goodness, it's like there's a tennis ball at the side of his head at the end of the fight.

Stop recapping, start reviewing.

Well her kids are 17 and 15, old enough to make the decision. I can understand why she'd do it, but if I was a blind teenager I wouldn't be selfish enough to tell my mother to sacrifice her life so that I can see.

He wants in Arizona for a player to player deal, seeing as how the Bills needed a left tackle and that's what Arizona is offering. I don't think it's worth it seeing as how much production Henry has given compared to that of a middle of the road LT. He's cheap, but it's not worth it, especially when come draft day he is most probably going to be dealt for a first round pick. Henry had really good years in Buffalo, but he's got a case of fumble-itis and has had some injuries so there is some baggage.

The IRS is going to be on his ass soon...he may have committed tax evasion (by not declaring money, about $80K, from autograph signings and buying his girlfriend a house in AZ with that $$$) 80K ain't that much when you earn like a gazillion dollars a year. How much money will he have to pay in penalty?

I think Masked Man was joking. Rod Stewart? Come on guy.

What did Kilborn say about Owen Hart? What did SC say about JYD? Most people on this board don't care that much about wrestling anymore.

I heard that the matchups that are probably gonna happen will be Saku/Vitor and Silva/Yoshida. The winners are most likely to face off. Everytime I fear for Silva, he pulls it out and beats his opponent. I thought he would lose the GP, thought he would lose the rematch to Rampage, but he manages to stay on top. His loss at NYE is nothing to be ashamed of though, all things considered, as that's already been discussed in depth. Again, I fear him losing to Vitor and he didn't look so good against Yoshida last time around. He's definitely the favourite, but this looks to be the first sixteen fighter tournament I know of that hasn't had at least one fighter significantly weaker, dare I say a can, than all the rest. Everybody in this one is a stud.

Anything below 35 is young in wrestling really. Look at how different the business was five years ago. Guys retire because of injuries real fast and their staying power on top fades as well. Considering that lots of people wrestle into their forties and such, not to mention that new talent pops up all the time, shows that there's nothing to really be worried about after looking at this roster. Amazing that Waltman has been on the "big stage" for over ten years and is only 33.

Somebody on this board actually SUPPORTS illegal immigration? Well, I guess it's different outside of the CE Folder. Good for these guys anyway. That's a helluva story.

No these are Amateur I think. I know that Chris lost to Joe Doerksen outside of this competition, so I believe that these don't count. Rudo; switch Leben with Baroni and you have yourself a match. A loudmouth striker who is overly emotional, and I like Baroni.

SPOILER ITS ABOUT THAT SAME STUPID PICTURE Regarding the picture, not only is Bobby in it but Koscheck is beside him. In a blue shirt. THAT FUCKING PICTURE IS BROUGHT UP AS A SPOILER EVERY FUCKING WEEK BUT NOW IT MAKES PERFECT FUCKING SENSE AND CAN BE USED AS AN ACTUAL SPOILER GODDAMNIT SPOILER END

Disappointed you guys, that's all I can say. The fact that the prospect alone brought people to watch the show should tell the WWE that the man is a draw plain and simple.

I think Florian has better ground skills than Koscheck and is on par with Diego, and I think he has better striking skills than them both. If he showed anything in this fight, it's that he's got a huge heart and can battle through some tough strikes. I think he'll win the final. I don't know much about Sam Hoger, but the LHW division looks wide open at this point and judging from the fact that Bonnar beat Southworth, looks like it's stacked as well.

Seriously, Warlord might have been a horrible wrestler, but he comes off as a tough old guy especially with the beard. If they made him a brawler and let him beat the absolute shit out of useless hosses like Masters with just stiff punches and kicks he'd be over. Actually, that would be the perfect feud. He wouldn't go all out, but just some intense ass whoopin' would go a long way. It would also be different to the traditional style used by like 80% of the roster, and that would get him over immediately. He could be the everyman barroom brawler that is built like a brick shithouse. Everybody would love the guy, trust me. He could be crazy, but a lovable kind of crazy. Obviously don't go all out, but this is wrestling, some stiffness should be allowed. He probably won't be in the WWF, but if he is, this would be the route they need to take.

I actually wasn't going to, but meh, I don't really care that much at this point. I put too much effort in the last post. I should've pulled a KKK on that one.

So did Warlord show up, or do you know if he's gonna show up? That would get me to tune in for sure. No, I'm not being sarcastic.
