So long as you admit it, I guess. The rest of that original post was fucking great, though.

Wow. DC grew some balls.

I have not been watching wrestling that long, but up until now I always understood what they were TRYING to do with the storylines. Even if it was stupid, I saw where they were coming from and why they thought it might work. The NWO return, Jericho's pussy title reign, HHH/Austin teaming up after WMX7, having DX go over the Radicals...I didn't always like it, but I knew WHY they thought it was a good idea. Since the draft ended, I've got no clue anymore. Their rationale for pushing Heidenreich as a new Road Warrior, or burying Batista and Christian, having a chick with a mutant growth on her face as a regular character, putting Snitsky in main events... ...I'm really at a total loss. Raw's a better show on paper, but it seriously boring to watch since everyone knows Cena will retain, and the Hardy run-ins are already stale. I'm giving them until Summerslam to keep me interested.

Batista's in Vince's doghouse for the GAB match, according to rumors. Plus they barely feature the guy, and there just aren't good heels on SD for him to feud with. I'll say Batista.

Do you even know what socialism is?

Yeah, I was being sarcastic. Corey Lazarus' post was dumb. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Sorry. My sarcasometer hasn't been working lately.

Brilliantly stated. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Because it doesn't make any sense? He wants her to run so he can vote against her in protest of her running. It'd make more sense for him to just want her to not run at all, wouldn't it?

You actually had me going there for a second. I could almost hear Hogan saying those things. All this talk of drawing though really sidesteps an important point. People only brag about popularity when they know they don't have the talent to back it up. You'll never hear anyone talk about how great a rapper Vanilla Ice was, just how many records he sold.

Except race jokes are only about 30% of Rock's material, and most of the time even that material that's critical of black people. In "Never Scared" he spent almost the entire show bitching about being married. Race jokes are Mencia's entire act, and they're based on over-used observations of common stereo types, rather than using his observations to make a point like Rock does.

Being over isn't the same thing as being a draw or being on top. Hogan was "on the top" for about 8 years in WWE, and 5 in WCW. He hasn't really been "on the top" since 2000, except for 1 month in 2002. That's impressive, but 8+5 does not equal 25.

Damn summer reruns!

Hogan made more money than any othe rwrestler in history- Austin wasn't drawing in his WCW days, ECW, or first couple of years in the WWE- or he hasn't did anything the last 3 or so years.. Injury Theres no debating the drawing power of either men, Hogan wins by a landside- 2-4 years, compared to 20- <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Someone's going to have to prove he was actually a draw for 20 years. See my first post on this thread.

I think you're half right. She can definitely raise the most money. She also has the public speaking ability and charisma of a middle school assistant principal. She can't win because she won't be able to connect with most voters. She also has more baggage than LAX.

Austin outdrew Hogan when they competed head-to-head.

Nostalgia.

Two points: -Hulk Hogan didn't have a broken neck cut his career short. -Hogan was "on the top" for about 8 years in WWE, and 5 in WCW. He hasn't really been "on the top" since 2000, except for 1 month in 2002. That's impressive, but 8+5 does not equal 25.

JBL threatens to he-bitch man-slap Batista at Summerslam.

If 2008 turns out to be anything other than Bayh vs. Frist, I'm going to be fucking shocked.

So...Does this mean I don't have to watch wrestling anymore?

Its possible he watches it more than the interview exerpts make it seem like he does. Like I said, Bret makes some good point, but I think some of his views are a little outdated because the company has bigger problems now than the ones these exerpts describe.

At her age, it is her parents who must take care of her. I'll agree the Nebraska authorities may end up looking like fools, as its not like the girl or her parents are going to press charges for statutory rape.

I was always under the impression MTv/VH1/whoever were provided the videos for free by the record companies. Apparently, though, "The Real 70s House World Punk'd My Newlywed's Ride" gets good enough ratings that they can charge enough for advertising to make up whatever production costs + whatever they were making from commericals when they showed videos. Also, the song "Holla Back Girl" may sound like something an 8th grader got booed off the stage for at the middle school talent show, but goddamn if Gwen don't look fine as hell in the video.

In most states its also illegal to take a minor across state lines.
