    ESPN sucks, so do thread closers

    Maybe, maybe not. I know that those Bad Boys teams were really good, but it's hard to compare across eras. The game has just evolved too much since then. The Bad Boys were considered to be great defensively, but gave up almost 20 PPG more thant this current incarnation. Their bench was considerably better, though. I'll give you that. These Pistons beat a good Lakers team, and nearly beat a really good Spurs team. If they win another title this year, I'm willing to put them up there as one of those all-time great teams. I just look it like this, the Bad Boys SWEPT a Lakers team with Magic, Kareem, Worthy and Byron Scott a year after barely losing to them in 7. They also beat two Jordan/Pippen led Bulls teams en route to their titles. The Pistons don't have one series victory that measures up to those. I also think the Bad Boys were just a much better balanced and offensive team than the current Pistons, and defensively they would match up well against the current Pistons. The Bad Boys have 2 HoF guards, the current Pistons are solid players at the guard spot but neither is as good as Joe D, much less in Isiah's league. Rodman and Laimbeer match up favorably with Big Ben and 'Sheed. The only position where I think the new Pistons would have an edge is the SF, with Prince being better than Aguirre. However, the Bad Boys bench was so much deeper than any combination of guys the recent Pistons have. The series would be over in 5 or 6 tops with the Bad Boys winning. IF the Pistons win the title this year, then they'll go down as having one of the best 4-5 year runs in league history, but I think I'd still look at them like the Rockets who went back to back, or the Spurs of the last half decade moreso than as one of those transcendent teams of the '80s and '90s. Also in the Bad Boy's Era the leagues scoring average was generally up alot so that takes away any cred the 20 ppg stat has. There where less teams so talent wasn't spread as thin. It wasn't uncommon to see marginal teams go to 120+ point games, holding a team to less than 85-90 points was a notable feat.

    Minoriteam

    Minoriteam is the sukxors. 12 oz Mouse is stupid too. Who greenlights these shows? Do they even care what goes on after Family Guy anymore?

    Ghost Rider Trailer

    It looks like they'll be touching them up. *figners crossed* I don't know if I buy Nick Cage as a chain swinging Ghost Rider. Then again, I can't think of a better actor, so what the hell do I know?

  5. I guess his whole, I look like a child molester turned me off. But he's a solid worker, yeah.
  6. Hamerick was always blah for me. And that's right and proper for MTV to let the guys go to ECW and make more money. Yay for New Jack's craziness!!!

    Yeah...

    Seen it, some old lady wanted me to ask the guy wearing it to leave the store.

    NBA Offseason Thread

    Utah hasn't drafted a worth while player since lucking out with Kirelenko, but Reddick would put some fans in the seats for a bit.

    Which opens a whole new can of worms with hazing, harrasment and bullying.

    Diet 7-Up

    Gah, I tried that for the first time the other day. (First time I was in a Taco Bell in like three years) and it was AWFUL. I poured it out, and got the regular Dew instead. And Mountain Dew is XTREME baby, it really does cross classes. Best soda you can have, but it'll cost you is Antartica Guarana, an import from Brazil. Sooooooo tasty.

    The Great Debate: Spirit Squad vs. UMAGA

    Actually I think if Joe was in the Umaga spot, the boards would be flooded with "Joe's being misused" posts. I had to go with SS on this one, although I mark for both gimmicks. Sure Umaga is a throwback 80's style gimmick, but I mark for savage gimmicks. I loved Kamala (bring the hate) as a kid, and I like what Jamal is doing with his offense to make it wild and unpredictable. But come on... five cheerleaders? Nicky screaming like a bitch on every big spot? That's classic heel work there. And plus... *AIRHORN*

    No Buffet for you!

    I dig the name of the Chinese place near my house, but refuse to eat there since the one time I went in the food sucked. But the alure of Chinese Buffet City might bring me back. There was a kick ass sit-down Chinese place just down the street from my apartment, but it closed. No, Panda Express doesn't count as chinese food, much like Taco Bell doesn't count as Mexican.

    Indeed, and the person in line is usually twice as likely to check their order before leaving.

    TNA Comments which don't warrant a thread

    Yes!!! Dump me on my head instead of having the breath taken from my body with a choke hold. Seriously, who's refusing to die for the Mate-Leao?
  17. Beth Phoenix. She's from OVW. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elizabeth_Carolan I will soil my pants if she busts out the Super Samoan Driver like is listed on her moves. Soil it with what I don't know, but pants will be soiled.

    ECW gets a normal time slot

    I think this would be possible with Heyman booking him like he did in OVW. He would know enough to not put Boogeyman in long matches where he's exposed. I was thinking of someone from WWE to plug into a 911-type role. My first thought was Snitsky (who I think has actually improved in the ring since losing muscle mass) but maybe they could do that with Boogeyman since he's injury prone anyway. Yeah a 911-type is needed, I was hoping Matt Morgan could be brought it for that. Heyman would be able to protect Boogeyman's weaknesses, since that's what Paul E. does.
