HHH burying Edge will? That's not what I meant. I didn't mention Triple H at all.

Double post.

Now there's a guy I'd like to listen to. Get him away from Evolution, though. He just gets lost in the shuffle. He seems like he'd be pretty good, or at least not any worse than everyone else. -Jim

Why rehash things from years ago? It's not going to have any effect on the company as a whole, which is what they need right now.

Anybody else think it's time do revamp/ditch Confidential?

Can someone explain (in as much detail as possible) Steinerline '03? I've never seen it and hell, I don't think I heard about it when it happened. Thanks-Jim

Sorry to get off track but all this talk about Perfect (and looking at some Heats from '02) got me thinking. Why didn't they do more with him in '02? What's the point of making him a heel? They popped huge for him at the Rumble... Yeah, he was old, but they could've had something. It just makes me sad considering what happened.

Of course you know this COULDN'T happen. That would mean that they might be compared to a sport. They wouldn't wanna do something crazy like that. Or how about not doing anything? How about no hype packages, and no announcers creaming themselves when someone arrives and saying "hey, what hell's HE doing here!? WOW!!" and the GM/whatever the fuck saying "oh, we found a loophole." Yeah, a loophole. YOU'RE INSULTING OUR FUCKING INTELLIGENCE (sp?) AGAIN. Seriously, though, I believe that Vince's "new direction" speech has come full circle when they pull this shit. Years ago, when someone would jump to/from WCW, there were almost never any hype packages or references to another brand. I know they're both still WWE, but fuck, just try a little bit. How about just debuting someone out of nowhere and have them start racking up wins and moving up?

And that would be unacceptable. I kind of like that, actually.

I don't like it for several reasons. The biggest reason is because in Fenway, we have 5 retired numbers on the right field facade for Sox players. 1,4,8,9,27...all in red. Then right next to those is 42 in BLUE. It sounds stupid, but it just doesn't look right.

What the fuck can he do anywhere? Good, get him on Thunder with all the other mutants.

The reason I can't get into him is because he's on Thunder..I mean Smackdown. Seriously, get rid of the fucking blue lights, canned heat, and fist set. And the commentary sounds like its been dubbed over. And is it me, or does everything on UPN have a horseshit picture? It's not nearly as crisp as TNN, which is why I think Raw has a better atmoshpere...

Wasn't the plan not too long ago to have Benoit win it at Summerslam? When did it change back to Mania?

I have one: Who (which brand) gets the Judgement Day PPV? The split PPVs started right after that last year if I'm correct so it hasn't yet been an issue. Whoever gets it, it would make things uneven, right?

Yeah. The music is playing and he's grooving along when all of a sudden he goes "MMMMNNNNAAAHHHHAAAA. Ooooohh I KNOW that's right!" Then when Flash makes his way to the table, he & Vince dance together. I've got that on one of my "Good Work, Vince" comps. Too funny.

Yeah, it definitely was in the WM book. I didn't even know they still had it. I think that was the one where Luger decked Bret w/ the forearm in '93.

Why does he need to be on the cover? To be like every other generic "edgy" dvd?

1) My roommate's computer all of a sudden decides to stop connecting to aol after I installed an ethernet adapter. He went to dial up and it didn't work. There had previously been an LT Win modem in there that I put in a while back. I just installed it w/o any drivers and it worked fine for months. I uninstall it, plug it back in, and it dials, but always for one reason or another does not connect. So to test it, I install it into my computer (running XP Pro). Dials up, connects fine. He's running 2000 Pro. Could it be because XP auto installs the drivers? Do I need to download the drivers for it to work w/ 2000? And if so, why did it work before? I spent close to four hours today trying to fix this, and for the life of me, I can't figure it out. 2)I downloaded some George Carlin video on Kazaa and it won't play anything but the audio. All of those fucking "all codecs you'll ever need" things didn't do anything. Can anybody help?

Yes, but since it's an MPEG, would divx make a difference?

I'll second that.

I think the problem is that there are too many midcarders. Too many people like Kanyon. Moreover, the roster is too damn big. They sign Paul London, Spanky, Jimmy Yang, or whoever the fuck else. I hate all of the aforementioned, but that is beside the point. The point is, they sign people just because they can. That's SO WCW...just throwing money around. Look at Velocity. It's the same as Thunder or Saturday Night. You've got jobbers running rampant, you don't know or give a fuck about half the guys that come out to generic rock music. Shannon Moore, Akio, Sakoda, Orlando Jordan, Matt Morgan...the list goes on. Why have talented guys around when they're being restricted? Keep the cuts coming. The less, the better.

Does anyone else think it's maybe time to either cancel or just make Confidential an occasional thing? To me, it hasn't been all that great since they exhausted the 'shoot' topics..

The other day, I found a full page ad from the USA today hyping the first ever Smackdown! from April '99..might you have any interest in that, or are you only looking for live event ones?

You know what I hate? I mean, can't fucking stand. Ahem. Women who are like 5'1", have less than three kids, drive Suburbans or Yukon XLs, for the most part are fucking yuppies, pay for the gas (all $60 of it) with their rich husbands' credit cards, probably never worked a day in their lives, and talk on phones while they drive. Why in the HELL do they think they need a vehicle that huge? It just boggles my mind. I think it's because I worked at a gas station and had to put up with them all the fucking time. I'm sure there's someone out there who shares my sentiment, no?

I think Brock would be an awesome fit in a promotion like this, and would be a great first champion.
