    The Rock/Mankind stuff I posted more than makes up for everything else he's done. None is it even that horrible. I would take all of that in a second over John Cena holding the title for a year and The Boogeyman eating worms. I was never a big fan of 1999, but I always considered myself in the minority. The ratings showed that most people had no problem at all with what he was doing.

     

    We all know he's had a lot of dumb ideas as well, but that doesn't take away from the fact that a lot of people's favorite memories would not have happened without him.

     

    So did anyone actually watch the videos?

    I made a little compilation video of the storyline where the Rock turned heel at Survivor Series 1998. As far as wrestling storylines go, it really doesn't get much better. The brilliance of it was not just in what it did for the Rock and that it surprised the hell out of everyone, but also in how it catapulted Foley's popularity from a mildly popular guy to.. well, getting the reaction that he got when he won the title two months later.

    The sequel. The night where Mankind wins the world title.

    WWE was so unpredictable back then. Before I watched this to record it, I had forgotten that the night started off with Mankind asking for a title shot at the ROYAL RUMBLE. The people there that night were really in for a treat. Not a single one of them could have guessed the way the night would end up.

     

    The next time anyone thinks to say something negative about Vince Russo, think about this. Without Russo, this night and the moment at the end would not have happened. In fact, here's Russo talking about it. How many times can you picture the writers since he left saying "Well, the fans think they want this, but they don't really know what they want."? Probably a lot. I wonder sometimes what he could have done for Jericho, Benoit, Guerrero, and Rob Van Dam had he stayed.

    I'll elaborate on the 2003-04 product. Yes, those guys that were mentioned were in fact there, but really some of them like Jericho and RVD were buried as hell during that time period. Christian was treading water as well, maybe got an IC run out of it. I've let my apathy for Lesnar/Angle be known on here in the past, mainly because in the initial part of the feud I never found Angle and Co. to be serious enough as heels and Lesnar didn't exactly inspire me to rally behind him. Then they shift roles and Lesnar worked better as a vicious heel, but Angle was too smarmy to work as the inspirational face.

     

    What did Benoit do in 2003? After his stellar match with Angle at the Rumble he really didn't do anything that I recall until very late in the year when he feuded briefly with Lesnar. The one guy during that time period that was booked well and captivated me as a viewer was Eddie.

     

    This is all true, but at least I had those guys to look forward to seeing. There was a chance I might see something good. Off the top of my head I remember Jericho vs Shawn, the Highlight Reel every week, RVD vs Christian's ladder match on Raw, Rock's heel turn, and the Jericho/Trish/Christian storyline at the end of the year.

     

    There's not a single person on the roster that I have the slightest interest in anymore. HBK, RVD, and Benoit were the last.

    ok i know there is a thread about what it would take to get you to watch WWE again, i pose the question what would it take to get you to stop watching altogether

     

    they would have to go back to levels in 2003-2004, that was a bad period of time very few bright spots from that time, feel free to share your thoughts guys

     

    You have to be kidding. 2003 was not good by any means, but at least we had Jericho, Shawn Michaels, Guerrero, Benoit, Rob Van Dam, Kurt Angle, Brock Lesnar, Christian, and The Rock's excellent heel turn. Today, we have nothing.

     

    December to Dismember was what the final straw was for me to stop watching.

    Undertaker sacrifices Dennis Knight. AKA the beginning of the Ministry of Darkness.

    Seriously, why can't Russo make TNA this entertaining?

     

    Can a person get banned for posting entire shows on YouTube? I know there were a few guys who posted entire PPVs and other shows. I added them to my subscription list but two of them have disappeared within the last couple weeks. Is it possible they got banned/suspended for posting entire shows?

     

    You can get banned posting anything WWE. I did awhile back. Now I stick to Daily Motion or vidilife.

    Can someone please post the Chris Jericho interview from Nancy Grace if it's available anywhere online? I'm itching to see it.

     

    You'll have a hard time getting it he was essentially on and off the show throughout the whole hour, it wasn't like he did a 5 minute spot and was gone.

     

    I have it edited down to just his segments. Does anyone know why YouTube isn't allowing me to upload anything right now?

     

    Use Dailymotion.com or vidilife.com. Their uploading is faster than youtube anyway.

     

    Anytime I ever tried uploading on Dailymotion I always get an error message. Youtube still isn't working tonight even though there's no longer a message saying they're working on maintenence. I'll probably have to wait until tomorrow I guess...

     

    What about vidilife?

    Well, the season is oevr for me. I hate Detroit, Cleveland, and San Antonio, and I could give a fuck less about Utah.

     

    This may be the first time in the 15 years I've been watching the NBA where I don't watch the Finals.

     

    Same here. Man, the playoffs ended quickly.

     

    I can't believe the Suns are gone already. They should have won games 1 and 5 and be on their way to the conference finals now. :(

    Jesus, what's with all the ref complaining in this thread. I honestly did not see one questionable call send Kobe to the line tonight. They called a couple charges on him when they were merited and most of the defensive foul calls, he was actually slapped on the arm or at least given solid body contact. 13 free throw attempts is pretty typical for a star player trying to do most of the scoring himself. The reason the Lakers got the win tonight wasn't the free throws, it was that Kobe was 15-26 from the field and that the Suns were badly outrebounded on both ends of the floor.

     

    It was less Kobe was getting too many free throws and more that the Suns just weren't getting any. Case in point: Barbosa's last drive of the game when the Suns were down 2. Barbosa is in the paint laying up the ball, and Kobe jumps on his arm. No call. Then Kobe goes down the court, and Raja gets called on a touch foul for having his hand brush against Kobe's stomach. Nash was mauled every time he came down the court and never once got a call. You're blind if you think the game was called evenly.

    They started this bs about 2 or 3years ago so that no games would be on at the same time. It used to be like 2 games would be on at the same time (on TBS and TNT) and the series would be over in a week at the longest. If these series go 7 games it will be two full weeks. That is ridiculous that the first round on the playoffs could take 2 weeks.

     

    I can't understand why you want to have two games on at the same time. That makes no sense. So what if it takes two weeks? Last year's first round was probably the most exciting round in the playoffs. Why rush through it? 2 weeks is fine.

     

    Bulls/Heat and Nets/Raptors are on at the same time tomorrow, anyway.

    Tonight couldn't have went any better. The first round is going to be great, especially Mavs/Warriors. I can't wait to see that. The only first round matchups that don't sound all that interesting are Pistons/Magic and Cavaliers/Wizards.

    37 shots and getting 60 points is pretty efficient.

     

    I said it's impressive. I just think that some other players could probably do the same thing if they wanted to take 37 shots.

     

    Take Nash for example. The most shots he's ever taken in a single game is 28. He made 20 of them and scored 48. (Against Dallas in the playoffs) He made the same number of shots as Kobe made last night, but he didn't have the free throws to go along with it.

     

    When Dirk scored 50 against Phoenix last year in the playoffs, he only took 26 shots. I wonder how many points he would've had if he had managed to take 11 more.

    While getting to 60 points is impressive, does anyone here not think that a lot of players could get 60 if they took 37 shots? Especially if they're playing against a horrible team?

     

    I'd love to see just once in their careers, Dirk or Nash take 37 shots in a game. To see what they could get.
