  1. Yeah so has Rick Sanitorum, who recently set up a booth at a Nascar event hoping to wow locals......he was promptly IGNORED.
  2. Will the return of Rich Harden to the A's pitching rotation offer a spark to the team or will he simply get hurt again after a couple of starts?
  3. I didn't think Big Show was doing THAT bad as ECW Champ until last week. The Big Show vs. UT match was the worst ECW Main Event since the Sci-Show started, and it is mainly because Big Show needs to be carried by a faster, smaller worker because the difference in styles compliment each other and counter each other, last week all we saw were two, tall, slow guys stalking each other and gasping for air after five minutes. I expect much of the same this week. I also am kind of mad that they didn't at least set this match up with an angle on Raw to explain why Kane just suddenly has a shot at the ECW belt. I mean the previous weeks they are at least setting up the main event, but you'd think some actual ECW WRESTLERS would want a chance to compete for the ECW belt. Here's hoping the REST OF THE SHOW is decent.
  4. Yeah, people keep making sarcastic remarks about how much money someone makes in WWE, and how they would neeeever make that money elsewhere, well guess what, it is also a hellacious road schedule, especially if like Tommy Dreamer, you have a wife and relatively young child at home that you miss dearly. Plus, I think people tend to underrate how much certain guys can make on the indy scene, working various dates for different promotions.
  5. yeah I know, but just google it, and it will come up with hundreds of matches. I just happened to choose one that gave too articles that laid it out pretty thouroughly.
  6. EDIT: Double post...(must have gotten hungry thinking about this meal)
  7. The prison guards, and the warden. LOL Seriously, probably a fat NY Strip Steak, an order of crab legs, steamed veggies w/butter, garlic bread and a gallon of NewCastle Ale. For Dessert, Caramel Flan.
  8. Funny because I am going to Houston,TX on Sept. 15th-25th to see the Skins/Cowboys and Skins/Texans. My best friend lives there so no hotel fees!!! If you find anything fun to do in the Dallas or Houston area, let me know, My friend's been there about two years now and is having trouble finding fun things to do in Texas.
  9. I am a former toker. I did joints/blunts/bongs/bowls. My Gf's brother had a killer gravity bong.
  10. My two cats (Oreo & Cooley) are pretty damn good cats. Cooley is an orange and white stripe tabby and Oreo is b&w. My only complaint is that sometimes Cooley gets a little rough with Oreo since he is naturally bigger. He doesn't do it on purpose and usually if Oreo gets too frustrated, Cooley senses it and treats him to a bathing afterwards to make sure no harm is done!!!
  11. Gatti moving up in weight really hurt him here. He landed a lot of clean shots on Baldomir, and Baldomir just walked right through them. When it comes to Gatti, if you can take his punches, you will win because it is guaranteed you can land anything you want on his face.
  12. Hooray for Operation "Clean Break" http://www.larouchepub.com/other/2005/3208hariri_killed.html Lebanon's Hariri Killed To Make a `Clean Break' by Muriel Mirak-Weissbach --------------------------------------------------------------------- http://www.larouchepub.com/other/2003/3040cleanbreak.html Cheney Behind New Mideast War Drive: Return of `Clean Break' by Jeffrey Steinberg
  13. I'd probably make the broad assumption that Fox News gets higher ratings because for one, they aren't a news station, they are basically show after show of ESPN's Pardon the Interruption or Around the Horn, which is more Opinionated Entertainment rather then actual News.
  14. EDIT: Moved to correct thread.
  15. We also had inspectors on the ground in Iraq that weren't finding any WMDs. Bush PULLED THE INSPECTORS out so he could start the War.
  16. Wow, Stephanie wants DX to be the FOCAL POINT of the show...well into the fall? HOW FUCKING SUPRISING!
  17. Well the multi-returns of Hogan does strange things to people. I don't think anyone likes Orton, but for one the entire storyline here is so contrived that I think people might just want Orton to win because it would screw things up. I would actually laugh if people ended up cheering for Orton in this feud by match-time, because lets face it, more wrestling fans probably relate to being the boyfriend chasing the untouchable chick, rather then relating to being a father trying to protect his daughter.
  18. They should just add some ECW to the show...oh wait Big Show jobbed on Sunday....ugh.
  19. I'd imagine Shane and Linda would want to be at the hospital too. Jesus, would it kill the company to just SKIP the lame-o DX/McMahon stuff for a single week? We all know it is going to be the main event for every show including PPVs, until it is over, so you'd think they could let something else headline RAW for a single week.
  20. I think Invader3k is right to a certain extent, however I don't necessarily disagree with a lot of the "PC" policies themselves, however it is more that people unnecessarily abuse them, that makes it a problem, in my opinion. For example, having sexual harassment laws on the books is definately a good thing if you weigh the pros and cons, however the reality of the situation is there is always going to be that one lame-o is going to make a stink out of something ridiculous simply because they can. But then at the same time, you have to look back in time to what the workplace was probably like before any of these types of laws were on the books, and how the atmosphere the work place could have felt to some people.
  21. Both look good, if I had to choose one, it would The Prestige.
  22. Just got back. Hilarious~! Kevin Smith is Back!!! Dunno what trailers everyone else got, but the ones we got sucked hard, except for the trailer for the next broken lizard's flick Beerfest!!!
  23. I am about to leave the house to go see it.......
  24. The best news about this week's ECW rating has to be that the rating actually dropped for the MAIN EVENT for the first time, I believe in all six weeks. At least people showed that they were not as interested in Big Show/UT as all of the previous weeks, where the rating would go UP for the Main Event.
