Yeah, I wondered how he played for you before putting his transfer through. He scored for you too, I believe.

Show some damn respect for the deceased.

You really believe this? But he heard it on the Internet!

Now, i KNOW there are some people who play this, since it seems to crop up now and then in the footy thread in Sports. So share your experiences, joys, despairs, etc in here Unless of course nobody sees it and it's a one post thread. My own guilty pleasure is turning the Sugar Daddy and Cash Injections on, putting Derby on 10000 reputation and buy, buy, buy... EDIT: Rather embarresingly, there's no such game as Footmall manager. Maybe a mod could change it to 'football'?

At the time, I just thought they'd put Michaels in to take the pinfall.

How was that shocking when they built to it for 3+ months? Booker vs HHH.

Yes. Strong female characters. Push Maria.

Didn't he play only 12 minutes, injured, and STILL got injured by Steve Sidwell?

Dave had him on WOL last week I think, and Lance basically said, about guys taking painkillers to get through matches and carry on, if they need them in the first place, then they shouldn't be wrestling.

Gold, Jerry.

Hell of a point.

i think we can kill off the jokes unless we wanna do it for shits and giggles

this might not be good for WWE, although WWE isnt at fault for this, its like me breaking a window and blaming the rock for breaking the window The Great One has better things to do with his time!

Look at the NWA champions (while they were legitmate). There certainly isn't a cruiserweight in that group. Yeah, but from what I understand, the NWA BOD only wanted a champion who could handle himself outside of the ring, as to protect the Championship's image. For example, these days, how would it look if their world champion (Rey for example) got punked out by some teenager?

Tell Sandman to Fuck Sandman.

The question is.. Who here could make predictions for five years from now?

Meh, Richard Cresswell was one of the names being linked with Derby. He wouldn't be so bad, seems like he got lost in the shuffle at Leeds. Ah. Anything to mention Leeds. Aren't they doing well!

Didn't we have Taker and Kane vs Austin and HHH with that same stip in 2001?

Yeah, mostly LL, but as recently as I believe two weeks ago, Joe saved Angle, who proceeded to put Joe through a table.

...

Y'all suck. 23 is where it's at.

sounds like wrestlers need marriage counseling as well.. Actually, a very valid point. I can't imagine distance apart and time apart could be good.

I feel like a lemming now with what I was about to say, given everybody's responses, but i'll say it none the less. I'll probably get labeled a mark or be ridiculed, but I'll probably never, ever stop watching. I'm 23 years old, I'm a former wrestler myself, I grew up idolising everybody I watched in the old WWF, back in my teenage years i'd watch Raw and tape Nitro, and always stay up til 4am to watch the PPV's. Hell, if WCW were around today, i'd probably still be doing exactly that. Things might not be as exciting as the late ninetines, but it'll never always be great, will it? If you don't have the leaner and bad times like the last few years, you'll never appreciate the great times we've had and will have again. I'm on a board for 'smart marks', I never proclaim to be smart to anybody, but I do like posting here anyway. But at the end of the day, I might not be a mark, a smark, or even a wrestler myself any longer, but i'll always be a fan.

The best post in this thread. Both of these are great.

Well, in the past, they've had Joe coming out to make sure Angle stays healthy, on more than one occasion.
