How was Eagan any different from the fine folks here in NHB? I just don't see it. Not that I care or anything, I just don't want this madness to spill over to the point to where we all start posting with identification numbers by our names and get segregated into distinct groups..

The Simpsons, gay sex, Futurama...
RavishingRickRudo replied to Downhome's topic in Television & Film
South Park fucking smokes The Simpsons now. -
I liked Voyager. They had a bunch of really excellent episodes that get overlooked because it wasn't as good as TNG, or didn't go as long. Survivor _.

The One and Only Angel Season 5 Thread
RavishingRickRudo replied to Steve J. Rogers's topic in Brandon Truitt
I did, and they weren't that big. Just confirming everything said up until now with opinions on each. If you've read the other spoilers, it shouldn't ruin anything for you. ....Yes... That's right... come into the spoiler says the Rudo to the Fly. -
Um, beating up on a babyface isn't cheap heat...

The whole Tito/Couture fight was amazing. The crowd just going nuts for everything with chants of "Tito" and "Randy" filling the air. The first round was dynamic, and the rest was Couture takin control and showing Tito how it's done. The electricity in the air is indescribable. It wasn't the Fight of the Year, but dammit, it had the packaging of one.

When did Austin start pandering to the fans? I remember distinctly watching him do his heel schtick with the fans cheering like mad and he still didn't give a fuck. I'm thinkin that was around fall 96-ish, but the memory, it fades.. It could have been 97.

UFC 44: Undisputed Review Part One: The Introduction WHOOOO HOOOO!!! Boy whatta show! It’s a fuckin great time to be an MMA fan: Pride 25, UFC 43, Pride GP, and now UFC 44 – all excellent PPV’s and the year ain’t over yet! Totally worth the money spent and I can’t wait for Pride: Final Conflict, Pride: Bushido, and UFC 45. I’m starting to think with the level of fighters out there today, it’s impossible to have a bad card. Gotta give props out to Joe Rogan and Mike Goldberg, they did a great job tonight and are probably the best announce team out there today now that Quadros is out of Pride. I have this rule of thumb: If I can do a better job, then it's bad. Watching the show, nearly everything I thought (aside from the missed body shots which Bas would have picked up on immediately) Joe Rogan said. Goldberg wasn't his regular annoying self with his used car salesman approach and they have some really good chemistry. My only major problems in terms of out-of-the-ring content is that there were many production errors – be it sound problems or just bad camera angles at the wrong time – they need to polish that up a bit. Plus I don’t care what celebrities think. Nor do I really care about fighters giving shout-outs to their endless lists of sponsors. With that said, I’d like to thank Viewers Choice PPV for carrying this show, I’d like to thank IBM computers for making this swank lap-top I’m typing on, I’d also like to thank Lays Potato chips for some great snakin action, and God, I’d like to thank God, he fought real hard tonight against Tito and continues to prove everyone wrong. I really liked the graphics tonight, very pretty. I prefer the slick fonts to the scratchy kind, and the look is very nice. The entrances I’m not digging. I like glitz and glamour, I like the cool sets (it’s the only reason I ever watch Sunday Night Heat on PPV day), and Pride does it so well and successfully that I don’t understand why the UFC have gone with this bare-bones style (well, I understand why THEY have done it, but I don’t understand why any sane company would). At least have SOMETHING - lights, a video display; no matter how small, as long as it looks good it will add something to the shows. You can still keep the small enclosure, but fill it up! Bringing in wrestling fans isn’t the worst thing you can do Zuffa. Pride does it and they get 40,000+ fans at their shows. Speaking of Pride, was anyone else marking the fuck out for Takada?? That was totally unexpected! Sakuraba and Fujita in the UFC? OH DADDY! Sure, they’re not Fedor, or Cro Cop, or Wanderlei, or Nog, but fuck, they got my $ already. Sakuraba vs. Hughes?? Frankin?? Fujita vs. Sylvia? Cabbage??! That’s some good lovin right there. Chuck and Rampage one-on-one with Rogan was a sight to be seen as well. Jackson is such a superstar man; I don’t know if it was the novelty of a Pride guy talking right next to the octagon, or just Jackson workin the stick, but there was an aura around him tonight and I was feelin it. Do Dat Thang! I am so digging this Pride vs. UFC feud and I can’t wait for it to blow up. Just hearing the UFC guys talk about Pride, and showing Pride footage; it’s like the Monday Night Wars, it’s like the Hall and Nash taking over WCW, it’s like the InVasion…. Oh wait, scratch that last one. "Are they really doing this? Can they do this?" It's so fresh and new and taboo, I love it. Up Next, Part 2: The Fights

As late as this morning I was questioning whether or not to get this PPV. I really wanted to see Tito vs. Randy, but it was a 1 fight card (oh was that ever wrong!). Needless to say it was bought...Before the main event, I could feel it. I could feel the hype. "Oh shit, Oh shit, Oh shit" - like reaching the apex of a rollercoaster. I never get that feeling with wrestling. It was pure energy man and I'm still fuckin feelin it right now. I feel like runnin around the block shouting at the top of my lungs "OH FUCK YES!!!!". I really need to organize my thoughts better... I'm all over the place.

I'm a big Couture fan - I've been so since I saw him dominate at UFC 13 - I know you can never count Randy out... yet I always do it. I don't know if it's us underestimating the Natural or overestimating his opponents, but one thing is for sure, Randy Couture makes a living out of proving people wrong. He made Chuck look like an amateur and made Tito look like a punk. The guy is a fucking monster.
-
I have a proposal to make... Whatever faith you have, whatever religion you follow, whatever belief you may have developed in your lifetime... Drop it. ..And become a Naturalist. Because tonight it's been proven, Randy Couture is GOD.

Skinner and Smithers or Lenny and Carl are probably the best bets... ...Thank god I stopped watching years ago. -
The Rock's interview on UPN9 New York
RavishingRickRudo replied to Eclipse's topic in The WWE Folder
Why do they keep promoting the Monkey Face Sex scene? It wasn't funny the first time I heard about it, it's still not funny at time #27. -
If great wrestlers don't "waste their time" with the green wrestlers, the green wrestlers will never reach their full potential and there won't be anymore great wrestlers. So why put Cena with Angle?
-
Maybe we can have Funakism vs. Mattitude with Yang being one of Funaki's FM'ers... that is to say, Funakism Master.
-
And just how does that make me any different from a lot of others on this board? Oh, it doesn't. Don't worry. It's just the "you can never enjoy anything" card isn't a particular favourite of mine as I (and others) clearly enjoyed the Angle/Taker match from Smackdown a few weeks ago. The Brock/Angle feud should be considered a disaster - from a pure story aspect, it was all set up for them. It was a turn-key storyline with many natural ways it could have gone - and they didn't make use of any of them.. The Cena/Angle confrontation from a few months ago with "You're even whiter than me" and Hip Hopolympic champion doesn't give us (me) much faith in this angle. Add that to the rather random nature of Cena attacking Kurt and you have yourself the makings of a pointless feud that won't do anything for anybody in the long-run.
-
Well Austin vs. Bret wasn't just character and storyline... it also involved this thing called wrestling. You know, the sort of thing Cena isn't particularly good at. Their matches had this thing known as substance, where character and story were merged into an athletic contest and the feud continued to unfold in the ring, rather than random spots. Not exactly Angle's specialty there either (funny, how his best match in terms of substance was vs. Austin... funny... that...). So what we will have in the ring will be high workrate, low everything else.

Aw, isn't that cute... ...He's talking out of his ass.
-
You could, I dunno, maybe, read his book. That might give some insight into his life... I dunno, it might... I mean, it's no www.wwfattitude6669.8m.com in terms of information, but it could have some details on this man you call "Kurt Angle".

It not only touches Flair/Steamboat, but it touches it in the naughty places...

Buffy The Vampire Slayer: Season 7

"I was made to love you" is one of my favourite eps. and it's not just because April was hot. There was some really good and funny dialogue and it was a light-hearted eps... then BOOOM, "Mom? Mom? Mommy??" -
The One and Only Angel Season 5 Thread

I hated Harmony... THAT'S probably the reason I am not as hyped as I should be for Season 5... And I don't think />*~Lilah~*<\ will be showing up much....
