    Angle re-injures neck

    I agree with you for the most part RRR, but as fans people have different tastes. With basketball you have stats that give you an example of who is better, but stats aren't everything. I can honestly say I don't like Kobe Bryant, but I think he is a great player. However I would also say that his defense is way overrated and that Tracy McGrady has been the better player between the two since the end of 2001/2002 season. I can give you reasons why I belive both things, but you may weigh the importance of them differently. Very true. Some people may put more importance on technical wrestling than in storytelling, and vice versa. Both have their points - but as long as they have their points and it's based in reason, it's cool. However, in this regard, that is just not being done. You can't through that opinion out the window because you place an emphasis on other things. That is what many people on this board do. That's because many people on this board (general statement) place an emphasis on *opinion* rather than the points that make that opinion. They are more content with just saying "Well, that's the way I feel and I can't be wrong" rather than backing up what they say. I think 'that' should be used until after all the points have been made and "widdled down" to "I prefer this over this".

    Top 10 wrestlers ever in U.S

    You are going to have to define "best" further since you referenced "drawing" as the major factor in putting Hogan as #1... though there were "better" in the ring, and on the mic. This just kinda seems like "favourites".

    The same eps?? No fuckin shit!?! Man, that was a really fucking good episode.

    No Message Board. Which, IMO, is a just stupid not to have.

    The One and Only Angel Season 5 Thread

    I found Gunn/Fred to be too out of character for both of them. So it was odd seeing the two get mushy. Plus you had the frustrating love triangle to deal with... RRR: Wants everyone to get along... but not too well.

    Big Show as US Champ

    Yeah, kinda like how Smackdown is the "wrestling show"... *note: the WWE will NEVER NEVER NEVER EVER EVER EVER make ANYTHING "wrestling" oriented.*

    Could kayfabe work in this day and age...

    He never said "good" movies. It's more like a mix of old home movies and edited porn - lots of random, meaningless, self-gratifying segments and no real pay-off.

    The One and Only Angel Season 5 Thread

    Knox was fine as the goofy tech guy - he started to become annoying when he became "more" than that. This better end with Knox turning heel....Quite frankly, anyone who hooks up with Fred tends to get annoying (Gunn was too) - Buffy did the secondary romances much better than Angel. Willow/Tara, Willow/Oz, Xander/Anya were much better done than Gunn/Fred and.. um.. well, Gunn/Fred as of right now... I guess Lilah/Wes sorta, kinda, counts...and that pretty much well dwarfed every love story both shows have produced... "Leave the Glasses on".

    Oh no, that's US Gold Baby.

    Benoit. Probably not directly, but Benoit will end up with it before Mania.

    Smackdown SPOILERS

    Al who?

    Smackdown SPOILERS

    I think that's just the WWE trying to be technical. I hate it when they do that. Like when Austin says "I must be physically provoked", rather than saying "touch me and I get to hit you" which is what it really is... It's all so needlessly convoluted...

    Smackdown SPOILERS

    They fight to the death... but they don't actually say death because the WWE doesn't do murder storylines.

    Big Show as US Champ

    They shouldn't put ANY title on the Big Show given that he makes them all look like armbands... and cause, you know, he sucks... (oops, wasn't supposed to reveal that... nevermind, go on thinking that he's "improved")

    Smackdown SPOILERS

    No. They DIE. But you see, the loophole here is that the Undertaker is already dead so he is allowed to lose the match.

    Angle re-injures neck

    I'll lay it out like this. Your brother is a wrestler. Your brother doesn't know how to execute a bodyslam, hurts his opponents, and generally can't wrestle. To your parents, your brother is a "good" wrestler. What is this based on? Reason? Logic? Informed Opinion? Or does it matter at all how he wrestles, since their opinion is based on emotion rather than an objective perspective? So you can have your "opinion", but if you can't back it up with anything concrete - quite frankly - it has no value to me and probably no value to others either. And "if you don't care", consider this: why do you share it? AND you also live in a society where there is an importance placed on informed decisions.. Why do you think 8-year-olds can't vote?

    Smackdown SPOILERS

    We're supposed to believe that Vince can beat Taker cause he "beat" Ted Turner... but unless Taker merges with AOL and they tell him to stop wrestling, I don't see how that makes sense..

    The One and Only Angel Season 5 Thread

    (Lights go out) Spike: "You'll never take me to hell Rebane!!!" (Emergency lights come on and Eve looks confused) Spike: "Oh...that's just something I say...when the lights go off." YES! YES! YES~! Oh FUCK YEAH, that whole sequence finishing with Spike saying fuck it RULLLLLL'D.

    The One and Only Angel Season 5 Thread

    1. YEAH!! YEAH!! YEAH!!! DOUBLE GUNZ MOTHAFUKKAZ! Now, all we needed was the shotgun and extendo-knife and all would have been well in the Wesleyverse. 2. Spikes line about "head boy" was fucking Wesley Windham Pryce-less. 3. Eve was so not rockin da foxy tonight. I mean, would a raised eyebrow or perhaps a long saunter down the hall have killed her??? 4. The references to past eps. were freaking great tonight. Spike saying that people can have sex with robots too was a total mark-out moment (you know, cause of Season 5 and the Buffybot... I mean, it's not like I marked out for personal reasons... oh boy, back into hiding I go...) 5. It really fucking sucks that this could be the last season, cause all the character development they are doing is fucking brilliant. 6. This eps. was rather mild - I got what I expected and they hit every note they could and should have, but I was hoping for more... more of what, I don't know. I think the robots ruined it. I was more interested in the watchers storyline. However, the "let's make Angel our puppet" angle was pretty cool. 7. Wes shooting robodad so quickly after he threatened Fred was fucking BOSSOME~! He needs to brood more like he did when he was at his badass peak. 8. I liked how they tied everything up, with the beginning and Angel not trusting Wes because he kidnapped his son and then in the end he did because he killed his father. There was that sort of righteous bond between them where blood may be thicker than water, but the greater good is thicker than blood. 9. They REALLY gotta explain what they put in the place of Connor in the minds of everyone else cause I wanna know! 10. Spike - in general - was golden. 11. I liked Knox in the beginning, but now he is starting to annoy me. Though I like his references to the "old regime". 12. Fred was soooo channeling Willow early-season 5 in some parts of this. 13. Gunn continues to rule... they need a lil more though... 14. Man, you could sooooo see Wes's father turning on him as soon as he asked about the books and locking them up... and in other news, Joss reads a lot of Freud.

    PRIDE News

    Nog took so much fucking punishment in that match. Those liver kicks alone must have torn up his insides. However, as much as Cro Cop owned him standing - Nog owned him 10x's more on the ground

    No mention of CRASH on RAW tonight?

    Well the tattoo was in regards to my love for David Cronenberg films... my love for Crash Holly developed well after and was more of a coincidence.

    No mention of CRASH on RAW tonight?

    Now, I think everyone knows that I am the biggest Crash fan on this board, so you all know how I feel about this...
