EVIL~! alkeiper

With the dvd set coming out today, let's have a discussion thread! I think the big selling point of the series are the angles. The Megapowers, Savage and Elizabeth, etc. Some of the matches are very good though, and what's not good is mercifully short. Quick 'n' Dirty Ratings for Matches on Disc 1 Hogan v Orton ** Piper v Orndorff **3/4 Hogan v Funk **1/2 Mr T v Orton DUD Steamboat v Roberts *** Roberts v Savage *** Hogan v Orndorff ***1/2 Battle Royal *** Hart Foundation v Bulldogs **1/4 Honky v Savage *** Savage v Hitman **** Steamboat/Windham/Rotundo v Steele/Sheik/Volkoff ** The battle royal I felt was very good, with the other 18 going right for Hogan and Andre. It gave the match a real flow right from the start. Disc 2 Hogan v Bundy *1/2 Hogan v Andre DUD Savage v DiBiase ***1/2 Hogan v Race ** Savage v Andre *1/2 Warrior v Honky Tonk Man * Mega Powers v Twin Towers DUD I'll watch this again, but Hogan acting like an utter tool really dragged down any potential enjoyment. Hogan v BossMan **3/4 Rockers v Brainbusters **1/2 Dusty v BossMan ** Disc 3 Hogan/Warrior v Perfect/Genius **3/4 Hogan v Perfect **1/2 Rockers v Hart Foundation *** Perfect v Santana ***3/4 Battle Royal **1/2 Hart v Dibiase *** Hogan/Sid v Flair/Undertaker **1/2 Michaels v Bulldog *** Michaels v Shane * DX v Spirit Squad * Edge v Cena *1/2

You know that's because they didn't keep caught stealing numbers then, right? Updated the front page. Have I missed anyone's picks?

Since this came about via 24/7's Roundtable discussion, I thought it'd be interesting to actually develop a list. 1. The Rock 2. Bobo Brazil 3. "Big Cat" Ernie Ladd 4. Abdullah the Butcher 5. The Junkyard Dog 6. Ron Simmons 7. Booker T 8. Bad News Allen Coage 9. Aja Kong 10. "Mr USA" Tony Atlas 11. "Hacksaw" Butch Reed 12. Scorpio 13. Bearcat Wright 14. "The Truth" Ron Killings 15. Kamala 16. Shelton Benjamin 17. Rocky Johnson 18. Koko B. Ware 19. Marc Mero 20. Ahmed Johnson

Bettman. I hate Selig but the overwhelming incomes from MLB can not be dismissed.

A side question, what makes Alfonso Soriano or Aramis Ramirez riskier than any normal player?

Ok, here's why I'm optimistic on the Cubs. 1. They have the division's best pitching staff, and would even if Rich Harden missed the entire season. The Cardinals are restocking, the Brewers lost Sheets and Sabathia. The Astros are paper thin. Who is going to beat these guys? 2. Giovany Soto is legitimate. Having a catcher who can slug .500 is a huge advantage. 3. This is a team that is solid up and down, rather than relying on one or two big stars. If Bradley gets hurt for a couple weeks, it will not kill the team. 4. Really, that 2005 club had Neifi Perez playing 154 games at shortstop. They were going to contend?

Here's a blast from the past. Al Costello

I just couldn't stay awake. It's been a rough week.

I'd say having tickets is a pretty good reason.

Anytime a Philly organization can smack down some rich pretty boys, it's good times.

Czech, Jerry Coleman beat you to that call.

Real simple here. In this phase of the MLB draft, you pick where you place your team. In one post, select the following. -Manager. -City. Must be an MLB city from 1901-present. So basically any current location, along with Brooklyn or Montreal. -Actual MLB nickname from that city. -Venue (current or historical) located within that city. Here's the draft order for this phase. alkeiper MFer Beast HarleyQuinn Treble JHawk Brooklyn Zoo Brother Mouzone Smues Smartley Pretty 909 Pinjockey Original Orange Goblin Youth N Asia Bored Agent of Oblivion Gert T Fokai

F'n Jeter.

You're right, I'll tone it down. The US has Shane Victorino yet.

And now Jeter can't even get in position for a cutoff. What the hell does New York see in this guy?

Daisuke had the 2nd most wins for a pitcher with less than 170 innings last year. Let's have some fun. Without looking at the PI... 1. Who had the most? 2. Who had the most wins with less than 100 innings? 3. Who had the most losses with less than 170 innings?

Miller and Phillips tried to bait Morgan, but Morgan wasn't biting.

Jeter at shortstop. Shit.

I'm surprised Bundy lasted this long. I've got a list together of whom I'd like on my roster. Of 23, 11 of them weren't even drafted last time. And a few of those really surprise me.

I came up with an idea, wanted to get feedback from the board at large. Essentially we would expand 24/7 into a folder called "WWE Multimedia." In addition to discussing 24/7 On Demand and Online programming, it would become a forum to discuss DVD releases (the actual dvds, not the release schedule), perhaps cds, and anything else that might fall under this category.

After much delay, changes have been made.
