We thought it was over last Thursday. But that wasn't long enough to settle a feud this personal. This captivating. BILLY GUNN!! KENZO SUZUKI!! The sequel we never thought we'd see, but we thank God everyday that we've been blessed enough with the opportunity. And it's coming up LATER.....at the Great American Bash!
-
End the match already! I mean....nobody bought tickets to watch Haas/Luther. Nobody! Just end the time-filling and give the people WHAT THEY WANT!! Ah, there's the $Money Match$!
-
Major WWE PLOTHOLE!! Angle said that Haas should cancel any plans he had for tonight. But if his match with Luther is coming up next.....reasonably, Haas should be able to continue anything he may have had scheduled for tonight. The match should only take a couple of minutes, so it's unreasonable to think that there is absolutely no time to go out after the match. What a plothole! WWE SUCKS!!!!!!!!
-
Then the plan is failing. The crowd is noticeably dead for this match so far. Which means.....if they're like this for the Fatal Fourway......there might be a negative heat vacuum during the Gunn/Kenzo match. Tonight does NOT look good.
-
The video doesn't make much sense. If Paul Bearer has been buried neck-deep in cement.....just how exactly is the Undertaker supposed to save him? Seems to me that Paul is pretty much screwed at that point.
-
Could the Taker/Dudleys match be going on last tonight? How many times have they had the final video package on Heat NOT be the Main Event of the actual PPV?
-
That match was terrible. His matches with the Rock at Backlash 2000 and Judgment Day 2000 (I don't know if the Iron Man Match should really be considered gimmicked....) were actually very good.
-
Sure they can. "Not very" seems like a pretty good explanation of how funny this site is.

I'm graduating HS this week, so I've had to deal with a lot of that senior stuff lately. Unfortunately, I've been really pressed for time and I just didn't have the chance to write a Drek/Cappa segment for this week. I'm also going to be struggling to find some time to actually write my match. I could have done it beforehand, but....well.....that's not how a procrastinator does things. Now, between Graduation and the following dinner tonight.....and work tomorrow afternoon followed by a family Graduation celebration tomorrow night.....and work again on Sunday afternoon.....it's going to be hard to find a solid amount of time to write up my match. I'm sure it'll get done, but it's definitely going to be a challenge. So, while I didn't really have the time to write anything this week, I should definitely have more time in the upcoming months to focus more on my character. Then again....it's nice to see that someone actually noticed I didn't have a segment this week. Hoff, I thought the promo was great. I continue to enjoy Hoff's continuous descent into becoming a total asshole. The rants on Axel and Gunner were great, and the surprise attack from Gunner was the perfect thing to get Hoff to shut up for the time being. The promo not only did an awesome job of furthering Hoff's character, but it really managed to heat up the War Games match - and the Hoff/Gunner/AJ feud specifically - into a fever pitch for this Sunday. Good job, as always. If I get the chance, I'll try to comment on the rest of this week's card. Either way, very good show all around this week, and I really look forward to the PPV.

Once the sky has been immediately closed off to any commercial or private aircrafts, there obviously shouldn't be anything else in the air other than the military planes. If there was an aircraft still flying, the FAA should be immediately contacted to get communication with this airplane. Instructions should be given to land the plane quickly, and that should solve the innocent plane situation. But IF the plane doesn't appear on the radar.....that's definitely a major problem. Even then, the military plane could do its best to communicate with the aircraft and demand it land at the nearest opportunity. If this isn't working either, and the plane isn't responding.....guess what. The most likely situation is that the plane, at that point, had been hijacked. It would definitely be a tragedy if an innocent plane had been shot down, but use logic. How many innocent planes would be flying around after the 9/11 attacks without open communication, without radar identification, and without responses to military instructions? As terrible as the situation might be, more people would be saved by shooting down this plane that is NOT following any of its instructions rather than letting it fly into a major landmark. It's a horrible sacrifice, but a realistic one nonetheless. Not everything can be protected, but it's better to make attempts to protect as much as you can with these military aircrafts rather than hardly anything at all. At least they had done the absolute most they could when it came to scrambling up defenses. The Bush Administration didn't do absolutely as much as they could defense-wise following the 9/11 attacks that day. Tell this to those that still try to pin the entire thing on Clinton. Tell this to the Bush administration, which is using the intelligence failure of 9/11 as the driving force behind reelection. Tell this to those that are attempting to find a tiny shred of justification for Bush becoming entirely meaningless in a Florida classroom during a time that SCREAMED out for the President of the United States to take immediate action and try to regain control. They can't admit his reaction was inappropriate and one of the most unhelpful things he could have possibly done. Guys, it's not hard to admit that he made a bad decision HERE at least. If we can't disagree about anything else, at least push your bias aside for a second and realize that sitting in this classroom for 11 minutes was an absolutely, utterly useless decision.
-
Hindsight is wonderful, isn't it? At this time, nearly three years after the attack has happened, those eleven minutes don't seem too important. But try to imagine that day again. You're forgetting the unknown variables at the time. During that morning, nobody really knew what targets had been hit and what targets were next. There were crazy rumors that Disneyworld had already been hit, the terrorists were targeting Camp David, etc. What President Bush SHOULD have done....from the instant moment he heard that we were under attack....was send jets to the prime locations of the country. He should have been out of that seat and making sure that defenses were immediately sent to the major cities of the country. New York City, Washington D.C., Los Angeles. We might not have known for sure what was going on, but those steps should have definitely been taken. Without an 11-minute wait. Just try to forget the hindsight you have right now. Think about September 11th, 2001 all over again. Bush had that 11-minute time frame to send planes to the major places of the country as a scrambled-together defense system. Now, just imagine if you will, if the terrorist attacks had continued that day. Imagine the Space Needle or the Golden Gate Bridge -- two major landmarks that people could have been in at the time -- were destroyed by jumbo jets.....yet could have been saved if Bush had taken the proper advantage of those 11 minutes like he should have? Something along these lines should have been thrown together RIGHT AWAY by the President of the United States. But he held off the matter so he could read a story in a Florida classroom. Those 11 minutes don't seem like anything right now. But something COULD have happened as a result of those 11 minutes -- and he would have been too late to stop it. Just remember that after the second plane hit, people were still DEATHLY afraid of what else could happen that day. There were rumors that landmarks had been destroyed, car bombs had been set off all over the country.....the matter was NOT anywhere near closed. Nobody knew that the plane flying into the Second Twin Tower was the end. Bush didn't know this either at the time. Yet.....he still sat there. Why?
-
And what was he going to do to andle the attacks? Try reading the previous thread that focused on this, instead of asking me to repeat myself all over again. Anything would have been more useful during that time than sitting in that classroom and reading a children's story for eleven crucial minutes.
-
Well, I'm shocked. Something I said in the Current Events folder -- dare I say it -- has been manipulated to the point where it doesn't resemble anything I had typed. I NEVER said Bush should have jumped out of that chair after he heard the news about the Twin Towers. I NEVER said he should have ran out of the room, sending both the children and the teachers into a hysterical panic. I NEVER said he should have done any of those things. I said he should have calmly stood up, told the children he had important Presidential matters to attend to, promised them he would have been back to read soon, reassuringly smile during this whole speech, then calmly walked out the door. This would have taken about a minute, would have kept the children calm, and would have let the President handle more important matters - like the deadliest terror attack this country has ever seen. Hopefully, you can understand what I'm trying to say this time around.

EDIT: Oops. Wrong topic.

Well, let's be completely fair. The only Senator that voted against the bill was John Breaux, but that was only because this bill, dealing with communications and media issues, was connected to a bill dealing with national security and defense. He didn't feel the two issues should have been connected, so he decided to vote no on the bill. There's no telling whether he would have voted for the censorship fine increase had it not been connected with national security. Either way, it's nice to see that at least 99% of our Senators are completely out-of-touch with what the average American wants.
-
.....Hoff, what the hell are you talking about?
-
Does Flair reminisce about that hilarious time when he was sitting in a bar and overheard a drunk man talking about "heels" and "faces"? Twenty-six men were checked into a hospital that night with gruesome injuries, they were.
-
Hmmm....someone made a thread about me. .... .... ....well, I have nothing else to add, so I guess I'll be on my way out now. *shuts off lights*

Mary-Kate Olsen to be treated for eating disorder.
NYU replied to Downhome's topic in Television & Film
Hasn't anyone else noticed that Ashley is JUST as stick-thin as Mary Kate is? They're both nothing more than skin and bones, and it does surprise me a little that only one has confessed to being an anorexic. Personally, I think both of them are suffering from the disease, but only Mary Kate had the courage to try to get treatment for it. Take a closer look. Their bodies look almost exactly the same! In that case, how could one be anorexic and the other be completely fine? The Olsen twins have turned into a sad case. At 16, they were both such cute girls. Nice bodies, beautiful faces....there was even a countdown dedicated to the day they turned 18. But over the past two years, their looks have really degenerated and they've done such terrible things to their bodies. I mean....when they turned 18, did you even hear about these "Olsen 18th Birthday Countdowns" anymore? Nope. No one even cares about them. Their looks have really taken a huge stumble, and it's obvious to anyone that has paid attention to the twins over the past few years. -
I can't be the only one that would rather see this GAB card than the current one we have now.

Well, we haven't really heard anything concrete when it comes to the Vengeance card yet. And it really is only a few weeks away from now. Personally, I wouldn't be surprised if they wound up booking Elimination Chamber III at Vengeance. It doesn't give away Benoit/HHH just yet, but it still puts them in an interesting match that should generate a relatively good number of buys.

You are aware that the rock likely came back out and did another 40 minute promo right? Sure. Which is why I said the home audience.....obviously, the Rock came out at the end for the live crowd.
-
.....what an absolute downer that was. Worst. Raw ending. Ever. We already know Evolution is evil. But seriously now, they could have given the home audience SOMETHING to be happy about. Christ....

I can understand Lita's frustration. Just how unreasonable can Matt be? His girlfriend slept with another man without using a condom. She is now pregnant and there is only a slight possibility that the baby is his. She's been lying to him the whole week, masquerading as if the child was solely his all along. And, on top of all that, she was going to accept his marriage proposal on the false pretense that he was actually the father of her baby. What a bastard. I mean....Lita DID say sorry....
-
Matt: Lita, is this true? Is that baby REALLY Kane's? Lita: .......*sob* Of courth not. What kind of slut do you think I am? *Trail of fire shoots out through Lita's pants. Suddenly, an eerie laugh is heard coming from Lita's uterus.* Lita: Um...doeth this mean the marriage is canthelled?
