This is ridiculous. We overran them for the first hour (or so Sky Sports News tells me) and then they scored an offside goal (or so Paul Merson tells me) and now they're just keeping the ball. Pah, I cant believe this, first game of the season isn't even over yet and i'm already making excuses. This is bad.

Football's back!!

Hawk52, JHawk and Hawk 34. Damn, no wonder some random people got random pm's.

If memory serves, he made reference to HHH sleeping his way to the top and staying there.

Somebody call your mama!

Poor HTQ, i'm sure that would have been his next pick.

Shame, even with the weight he'd put on, it was a shame to see him go downhill so far. I had a blind spot for him & Storm.

I wonder if it's worth it, or it will get a simply answer. I was reading Eric Bischoff's 'Controversy Creates Cash' earlier, (actually recommended read.. A lot of things surprised me about Bischoff's early career) and one thing really made me stop and think.. He was talking about Vince going nationwide with Cable TV and Verne's AWA not being able to compete, just like everybody else. Bischoff's job was to try and syndicate the AWA show around the whole country, like Vince was doing, but one market at a time.. Bischoff mentioned, not that he knew it at the time, that Verne should have gotten a better deal than his ESPN deal at the time. So my What If is.. What If the AWA had secured a similar nationwide TV deal, just like the WWF did?

I've got an interesting 'what if'.. is it too soon to do another one?

If you'd done that, i'd still have taken Angle first, but i'd have taken Steamboat second BPS.

I don't know about that.. all comes down to personal choice. Bret Hart Steve Austin Ric Flair Hulk Hogan Kurt Angle The Rock In that order. Dont get me wrong, I love Rock's work.

If i'd been an earlier pick, well, #1 in this case, i'd have taken Hart, and then Owen as my second pick. I'd have done the same storyline as i'm doing now with my Guerrero's, with my Harts instead. i'd have taken Canadian venues and not Texas venues, and at least ten of my roster would have been different. All because of one pick.

Ah, okay. I PM'd someone once but they just didn't reply. Bastards.

Man, the most obvious joke. Talking about obvious jokes.. can someone PLEASE explain the signatures we used to have on here, with people picking a different 'I'M WITH ____' sigs?

My own pick: Dos Caras - Jose Luis Rodriguez The man is simply known as the greatest heavyweight ever to come out of Mexico. WON Hall Of Famer, and former Three Time UWA and one time WWA Heavyweight Champion. All in all.. a perfect fit for Mascaras.

Keep this draft moving.. On behalf of Hawk 34 I wanted to get a really good brawler and one of the best, even if he was more of a sloppy garbage guy, he was good at it and he has a connection with someone else on the roster that I'll like to pair up once again in an environment that will suit them well. My next selection of the draft will be... Axl Rotten

That's interesting, as i'd like Sting instead of Guerrero, however Eddie is influential in the main event storyline I have.

I'd happily swap Randy Orton for my Kurt Angle. Which, bearing in mind Angle was my very first pick and Orton hadn't gone, looking back, i'm not happy.

On behalf of Hawk 34 Before years of botched plastic surgery, grotesque exposed sexual proclivities and a general lack of self-worth, she was a attractive valet who played a key part of Hot Stuff International and I think she can do that again here or something of that nature. I might just use her as my backstage interviewer. My next pick of the draft has been chosen.. Missy Hyatt

Rene Dupree & Sylvian Grenier La Resistance

[email protected] E-mail questions now (!) He'll be on at 5.30pm.

Good pick, I was going to take Styles myself as my commentator.

UK fans Randy Orton will be on Sky Sports news at some point this afternoon, probably some time between 3 and 5. Probably hawking Summerslam.

BPS' window has passed. Stevie has 5 hours 25 minutes from this post.
