Schmo 2 looks like a ripoff of Temptation Island or one of those other horrible dating reality shows rather than a wacky roommates/Survivor ripoff.

Did you just say "twink"?? Yeah...I wanted to say something else but what little appreciation I had for PC-ness made me skip it. Settled on "twink".

Who's the little twink reffing this match? Chris-something or other?

Eugene vs. Kane. Battle of the "Special" RAW wrestlers. The Re-Re Rumble? I'm sorry that was uncalled for and I apologize *flagellates himself*

They're celebrating with the crowd, and I still can't seem to give a shit.

Starship Troopers 2. Just what the world was clamoring for, a Starship Troopers movie without the star power of Casper Van Dien.

Unbeliveable. Booker T loses EVERY SINGLE TIME he comes within 500 miles of Houston, yet we're subjected to what is destined to be an undistinguished La Rez title reign because they're in Montreal. Oh well, at least now if Benoit wants to tag he can stick with Eugene.

Man talk about a basic punchy-kicky match so far (apart from Benoit's Rolling Germans of course). I keep thinking I slipped into Bizzaro World when they cheer La Rez, then I remember they're just having RAW in France Light and it makes a little more sense.

Well it's 2007 for my Astros team and I've unlocked a few legends to pitch for the majors. A starting rotation of Nolan Ryan, Whitey Ford, Roy Oswalt, Jeriome Robertson, and Brandon Backe has me 42-14 and about 13 game ahead. My lineup doesn't have any legends, but with Morgan Ensberg, Adam Everett, Jeff Kent, and Jeff Bagwell all over 10 homers as of right now I've got some pop in the lineup. My AA team is kicking ass too, although my AAA team is hovering around the .500 mark. All in all life is good if you're an Astros fan in my universe.

A cousin of mine has started trying to sell me on playing Warhammer 40k. I kind of like the look of it, but before I start to invest what looks to be a good chunk of change in it I would like to get some outside opinions. So, anyone else in these parts play it? And if so, what army do you play as? Also, I thought this would be a place that would be a good spot for strategies, tactics, units, etc. etc.

Yeah I've been looking through my cousin's Tau Codex. Good Lord some of their shit kicks ass. The fact that their Railgun is a Str 10 and has a 6' board radius is crazy. Of course like you said, a single Terminator squad would leave a smoking crater where the Tau were should they get in close. Their Kroot soldiers have little defense and the Battlesuits look kinda fragile. Thanks for the thought Dace I'll look into those models. I figure since I'm making the Chapter myself and they were stuck out near the Eye of Terror for so long they kinda scrounged parts wherever they could that I can pretty much use whatever kind of model I want. I like the Iron Warriors Terminator (although I guess their weapons systems won't be used by Terran forces) so it'll all come down to what I can fit into their design without causing other players to go into fits. It'll probably just be Ultramarine models when all's said and done. Finally, I've heard about Necron armies, Dam. I've been looking up Warhammer boards and Necron players always talk about how if they lose 75% of their troops they have to check against phasing out (automatically losing). The problem is actually GETTING 75% to stay down at once. Their little rebirth/revive/whatever it is sounds cheap.

Yeah I've read up on the Blood Angels and Death Company and found them pretty intriguing. Right now though I've basically made my chapter a hybrid offshoot of the Ultramarines (your "average" Marines, so to speak), so everything can be kept basic. Really I just didn't want a bunch of blue Marines running around (that's who my cousin uses as well). The black and red trim is actually the color scheme I'm going for, soI might just take a look at the Death Company and base my paint job off of it. I'm also going to make my Chapter (as of now called "The Dark Judges") a kind of heavy-weapons Chapter with lots of Tactical and Assault squads (with a couple more Devastator squads thown in for good measure). Tac squads are pretty cheap, so I can throw out a bunch of them. With the +3 save roll and bolter guns/missile launchers on most of them, I should be fine. BTW for anyone who plays and tries to create your own Chapter, damn it's harder than I thought to come up with a backstory, organization, etc. I tried to make mine look like it came directly out of the Index Astartes (Space Marines compendium) and it took me damn near all day just to make it look halfway decent. Three pages worth. I like it though. May tweak something here and there.

Yeah I've actually decided on the Space Marines (good balance, good stats, etc.). I'm actually creating my own chapter so I can have a plausible explanation for my own color scheme. Basically a hybrid of the Ultramarines and Iron Warriors, I'm going to try to limit my modifiers so people don't bitch too loudly. Still working on it though. Come on people don't be afraid to talk about Warhammer. It'll be okay. *talks soothingly and tries to draw them out into conversation*

And Maven breaks his leg sliding into the ring.

Damn, Battle Royal's gonna get about half an hour. My money's on Johnny Nitro. Of course I'm broke but that's besides the point.

Special People's Elbow! WOO!!!!

Ummm.... That was a bit unexpected. I woulda crapped if Eugene had said "We both like to play games! I like board games, he likes political games!"

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! Classic. Thanks.

Coach is now like in the Top 5 most over heels on RAW.

"Walking popcorn fart!" I gotta remember that. Just for everyday conversation.

I have the feeling this could be hilarious. Rocky propping up Eugene. This is bizarre.

Holy Fucking Shit!

*prays for Eugene to Stump Pull Coach and the Generic Wrestler*

So Eugene has his workout music now?? I liked his music last week better.

Feel the inner conflict! It's bloody Shakespeare I tell you! You little toerags..
