CM Punk looks like "a teenaged Blink 182 fan who cries himself to sleep at night because he can't sneak in backstage". HA. Just like his poser fans.

I think Balls is Kelly Kelly's brother. Why can't TNA do this with a one-hour show? Decent length of matches for the mid-card, slow builds, and eventual pay-offs. Might it be because a retarded ape is running the show? Or that they have 75 roster members for 44 minutes a week? Or because the ex-WCW/WWE castaways are too fat, slow, or plodding to do anything but promos? Who knows!

"THINGS ARE LOOKING UP" Obviously a reference to a jobber looking up at the lights. The son is The Brooklyn Brawler. Or John Morrison.

"It totally sucks that there was no heat whatsoever for Kennedy's appearance and subsquent announcement." I think Kennedy is awful, but are you high? The place went NUTS when "...Kennedy!" hit and interrupted Vince.

Holy crap, two updates in 2 days! Mickie re-takes the Women's lead, Jeff Hardy takes the overall men's lead.

Why is WWE making shirts with the Green Goblin spray painted gold on them?

The last 3 guys to win a "World Title" in WWE wouldn't have made it past the TV Title level if this was 1997 and wrestling was still good/interesting/popular/made sense.

"He should've ended it with money money yea yea." Copyrighted by WWE.

Sweet Christmas that's incredible news. I wonder when will be the next time "Hoss" is said on TV.

I think the whole "LOOK UP" clue will bother Vince throughout next week's Raw, ending in him looking up at the end and Triple H dropping poop/green paint on him and saying "SORRY....DAD!" followed by a crotch chop.

And we are updated through September! Looks like a four-way race between CM Punk, John Cena and The Hardy Boyz that will come down to the end!

An attorney stating he can "give you a clue" is so hokey that I love it. While on the subject, Stephanie's appearence last week gave me a raging clue. Damn, girl! tm Black Lushus. Shawn Michaels is the son. He looks up to the heavens during every entrance. Expect wacky DX HIJINX.

Will this Raw go down in history as the equivalent to the NFL's famous "House of Pain"/"Bodybag" games?

Carlito dropping the hair in a Hair Match would've been an attractive undercard PPV draw. What an interesting predicament this haircut must have been: I can save my job/avoid suspension by cutting my hair. But by cutting my hair I will get major heat with the office and get back on the shitlist.

Based on the look of that haircut, I think my theory holds a ton of water.

Phillies better man up and take care of Atlanta. Their pitching against Florida was disgusting.

That would imply they are actually trying to incriminate the wrestlers. At least urine/blood makes it look like they're trying to the public. Urine/blood can easily be faked. I suspect Carlito got a letter to report back with a urinalysis/hair result within 48 hours from a local testing facility, and was advised to trim the hair. That or he voluntarily sacrificed his whole look to save what is arguably his biggest program (Triple H) in his career.

Cryme Tyme, while at times kinda sloppy, was energetic and used actual, gasp, tag team maneuevers in their matches. Their "let's start the bidding!" thing, to me, was corny and lame, however. London and Kendrick, who are god damn talented, are stuck with useless Cody Rhodes (London didn't even get tagged in on the Raw six-man!) and losing to the World's Most Unover Tag Team (sorry, it's not 2003), so I wouldn't expect much. Given WWE booking, I'd expect the next tag team title challengers to be Cody Rhodes and Ron Simmons. With Cade & Murdoch defeating London and Kendrick in 2:21 the Raw before the PPV.

Hair testing can trace anywhere from 3 to 20 times the length of a usual drug's half-life in the body. Cutting it short can help eliminate the samples. A lot of people were speculating this is why Britney Spears shaved her head, with K-Fed requesting she be drug tested during their court battles. Example: Marijuana and THC's half-life in the body is 14-30 days, depending on weight, lifestyle, type of marijuana, etc. Hair testing can detect marijuana up to 90 days.

Rowand ain't going anywhere. Billions of Philadelphia house-wives and teenage girls would FLIP. Plus, all the guys would be pissed 'cause he's a great player. Methinks the Phillies won't be cheap in the offseason and show him the money, along with Howard.

Alright, that made me fucking spit my drink out.

This thread is all about Sports Mascots. It can be fun or die a quick death. YOU decide! I thought of this after seeing the nominees for the College Sports Mascots Hall of Fame on an ESPN Show the other day. One of the anchors yelled at the Michigan State Spartan - "Wow, you must be on the Barry Bonds diet!" 2007 Hall of Fame Nominees Pro Sports Candidates The Coyote San Antonio Spurs Mr. Met New York Mets Hugo the Hornet New Orleans Hornets The Oriole Bird Baltimore Orioles Youppi Montreal Expos - Canadiens The Mariner Moose Seattle Mariners 2007 Collegiate Candidates Sparty Michigan State University Big Red Western Kentucky University Lil Red University of Nebraska Smokey University of Tennessee Sebastian the Ibis University of Miami Brutus Buckeye Ohio State University __________ Post funny mascot tales, ridiculous historic stories, and pictures here.

Coors Field and Busch Stadium I didn't mention because a character like "Bernie Brewer" is obviously a cartoon-looking icon that attracts attention from kids. So I thought that was rather interesting. I'm take my mascot talk to a new thread, though, unless we have one.

As comical as this question is, I mean it to be as serious as it can be. Teams like the Redskins, Devil Rays, Indians, etc. have gotten shit for their team name or mascot, for being "un-PC" or whatever. Have the Brewers ever gotten shit for advertising alcohol, especially in a kid-friendly sport like baseball? Has Bernie Brewer ever had groups picket? I would find it funny, just wondering if crazy things like that happened in Milwaukee. I can see "Redskins" being an actual derogatory name, I suppose, not Brewers. Bernie Brewer, along with the Phanatic, has gotta be my favorite baseball mascot. The worst being the Arizona Diamondbacks mascot - uh, a bobcat. Nothing will touch Atlanta Braves' 1980's mascot "Chief Noc-a-Homa", though, and his giant teepee in the park. Awesome thing I found on Wikipedia: In 1970, the Brewers were still a new team and were having difficulty drawing spectators to their games at Milwaukee County Stadium. In late June, a 69-year-old fan named Milt Mason decided to sit on top of the scoreboard until the team could draw a home crowd of 40,000. He was there for about 40 days. When 44,387 people finally heeded his call and attended a game on August 3, Mason was welcomed back down and he became the original Bernie Brewer. Bonnie Brewer: Bonnie is part of the Brewers' "Retro Fridays" promotion at Miller Park, incorporating the traditional base sweeping as well as dancing the Polka with Bernie on Bernie's Dugout during the fans' singing of The Beer Barrel Polka in the seventh inning stretch. Miller Park sounds like the coolest baseball stadium ever and I am now planning to drive there early next season.
