    Am I the only one who has the feeling that this girl is only sorry that she got caught instead of being sorry that she was witness to, or even part of an unnecessary assault on other peers? Because if you ask me, I think half of these kids honestly don't give a shit that they were hurting or completely humiliating other people in their school that they look down on, but they are upset because the big bad school is punishing them for what they were doing for FUN: humiliating the younger, less popular schoolmates.

     

    And I don't think an expulsion or being charged with assault by the police would curb their behavior a bit. They'd just say "fine, whatever!" after the punishment gets handed down, and they'll go back to doing what they were doing before, in between making snide comments about the principal, the police, or even the court that handed down the sentence.

     

    I'm sorry, folks, but I do NOT believe any of the kids responsible for hazing are even remotely sorry they did it.

    No doubt, no remorse at all. Part of it has to lie on the parents who will bail out their kids without thinking of any consequences, so they might learn from this.

    BTW, there's no "fluff piece", as Gert T wondered about. It's essentially set up like the That Damn Good DVD, with matches up the ying-yang.

    Thanks I guess my dumbass totally missed the point of that earlier post! :D

    My biggest problem in this whole debate is the points of "*****" matches. I know its been beaten to death, but its all subjective, I mean there is no ratings manual. I would like to see the 92 tag match you spoke of, but only being familiar with Kroffat's work, I would have no emotional attachment to the match, which I do believe plays a big part in the "ratings". However at the same time I would want to believe it is a ***** match because others have said so. I saw Steamboat-Flair from WW 89 for the first time three years ago and may not have thought of it as 5 stars as opposed to Austin-Bret from WM 13 because I had not seen programming leading up to it so there was some emotional involvement.

    I thought just by seeing the title without the second line, that someone had got a hold of the DVD and they edited it out. Are there gonna be an edits on this show, I was drunk beyond recognition by the SD Tag Title match so I don't remember any fuck ups, hopefully they'll show the SSP from the angle they showed originally and on SD about 500 times, and not go for the one where it looked like Angle got out of the way.

    I that is all fans ask for.  Excitement.  I follow hockey here and there and I have a hard time watching 2 periods of 0-0 action so I usually will check in in the 3rd period.

    Sometimes there's nothing that can be done about those games though.

    Exactly if the goalie's have 25-30 saves each by then, its not like there hasn't been some excitement.

    You gotta remember though how good the Western Conference was this year, and out of the 8 teams, Utah is the only one that probably will not make it next year, depending on what Malone does. But I do fully expect the Rockets to make the playoffs next year.

    A few recent examples...

     

    Over The Edge 1998

    Wrestlemania XIII

    King of the Ring 1997

    Badd Blood 1997 (despite what people may say, the flag match was REALLY boring.)

    I didn't realize anybody referred to that flag match as anything else besides boring. I remember I tried to watch it like 3 times trying to like it.

    Darko is not really so much a center as much as a Dirk type 7 footer who does not mind getting physical.

     

    I agree if the order of players go LeBron, Darko, & Carmelo it will be a good match for each team and player. Denver may seem like a black hole, but there would be more pressure on him in Detroit than in Denver. Hell, they'd be happy with 25 wins next year!

    Here's the order teams have at getting the # 1 pick:

     

    1. Cleveland

    1. Denver

    3. Toronto

    4. Miami

    5. LA Clippers

    6. Memphis (going to Detroit unless #1 pick)

    7. Chicago

    8. Atlanta

    9. New York

    10. Washington

    11. Golden State

    12. Seattle

    13. Houston (going to Memphis)

     

    How lucky could Jerry West possibly get?

     

    Also, the number of foreign players and underclassmen is unreal, don't you think some of these US guys leaving early would look at how many are leaving and think it may not be a good idea?

     

    I mean what are there 58-62 spots?

    Hey guys I gotta question, I want to get a Jason Richardson jersey. Should I get the current jersey which is on sale for 45 or the Swingman Retro Jersey for 70? Sorry my dumbass can't get pics up on here so you might have to visualize!

    Who won the coin toss between Cleveland and Denver for the 4th pick if they both drop out of the top three? My picks.

     

    1 Denver

    2 Atlanta

    3 Cleveland

     

    Although I would be shocked if both Denver & Cleveland stay in the top three. How about Memphis getting the #2 ball so Detroit could land Carmelo or Milicic?

    I know originally it was announced that Vince was on the Team WWF squad and was replaced by the Big Show about a week before the PPV? Was this done because Vince did not want to be eliminated first, or that it would look weak for the owner of the winning side to not be a sole survivor. Or was he injured? Because I find it hard to believe Vince's ego did not want to be in that match.

    They are just going to keep hyping these two up until the big money making PPV match with the APA. Can you feel the excitement?

    Exactly, either that or a quick squash against RVD & Kane at Bad Blood. I really think if they are still around by then it will happen, quite the parallel!

    Turned 16 in January of 1997, got my license in October that year. My Dad was not exactly a patient man, and I had to buy my Mom two new brooms busting them practicing manuverability. But I got a 100 on the driving and a 95 on the manuverability. Almost shit my pants though when I pulled up to the cones and saw how much wider I practiced them with.
