  1. I'd be willing to get a good discussion of this going somewhere else.
  2. Rest In Peace. March 31, 2009. A-fucking-men. Peace out, g.
  3. I just don't know about that El Dandy pick.
  4. I can take other picks as well, I'll be around (or not far away) all weekend.
  5. I was looking for a face who could work and was a bit of a high flier, and I think I've found him in: Mil Mascaras
  6. Damn, that Memphis loss hurt. I can still win, but I need all my remaining picks to be right, plus Kansas needs to beat Michigan State tonight and Missouri needs to make the title game. Yeah right.
  7. I hope it collapses on top of him. Fuck that guy.
  8. One of the great mic men of the 70s and 80s, a precursor to (and influence on) The Rock...another versatile mid to upper midcard guy: "Iceman" King Parsons
  9. Why does Vince even bother opening his mouth? He has to know he has zero credibility calling another company's programming reprehensible. Or maybe Vince really is that delusional and self-unaware.
  10. Allow me to pile on and say how bad the Thanksgiving games look. Cowboys/Chargers would have been good, I don't know why they wanted the Raiders. Lioons/anybody would be horrible, so I assume they put Green Bay on to attract Packers fans. Giants/Broncos could be decent depending on how the Cutler situation pans out.
  11. This is an historic drought. No one's scored a point in over four months.
  12. It was between him and Koloff for me. It was between him and Kiniski for me.
  13. Anyone who has an answer other than Bettman clearly doesn't follow the NHL.
  14. They did. I never noticed it watching it live, but man, is that funny now. Sorry that won't be shown to a wider audience. I noticed a weird overdub on the Hogan/Orton match. They dubbed "Real American" in over "Eye of the Tiger", but they also overdubbed the Fink's intro with an intro from many years later, with Hogan being from Hollywood and weighing 275, instead of Venice Beach and 302.
  15. A perfect babyface complement to Gene Kiniski, especially given that they feuded extensively in real life: "Whipper" Billy Watson
  16. Damn, my picks are always coming up in the middle of the night now. Pick will be up in a few minutes.
  17. I don't mind it. The tournament is supposed to go to chalk, it ensures the best matchups It's not too good from an entertainment standpoint, though. They sell this tournament in part on the Cinderellas and the amazing upsets, which are sorely lacking this year. I would think it's better from an entertainment standpoint to have the top teams play one another? Not better, just different. The quality of the games might be somewhat better, but I think that's mitigated by the excitement that's missing from seeing a David get a chance to knock down a Goliath. There's nothing about a Kansas-Michigan State matchup that would make me sit up and take notice, or a Louisville-Arizona game. Now, make it Louisville-Cleveland State, and I'm probably going to watch, just on the off chance that the unthinkable happens. The best teams almost always make it to the Final Four anyway, I just don't like that the committee is sucking the life out of the tournament before it even starts by putting all the Goliath programs in at the expense of the Davids. Sure, Arizona is playing well now, but who's to say St. Mary's couldn't have done what they did?
  18. That was disappointing, the stunt bros deserved to lose for making such a LOLBAD choice on the Detour. Anyone who had seen the show before would know that this was a Detour where the producers wanted to see everyone do one thing, so they made the other choice so ridiculously hard that no one in their right mind would ever choose it.
  19. Former Leaf Walt Poddubny died Saturday at 49. I have nothing to say about the current standings or anything else.
  20. I went 13 for 13 with the teams that actually made it out of the first round.
  21. I don't mind it. The tournament is supposed to go to chalk, it ensures the best matchups It's not too good from an entertainment standpoint, though. They sell this tournament in part on the Cinderellas and the amazing upsets, which are sorely lacking this year.
  22. Anyway, my next pick is a brawler and legit tough guy heel, as well as a Canadian wrestling icon. They will flock over the border from Windsor to boo this guy: Gene Kiniski
