Wrestlemania 12...Goldust running over Piper with a car during the Hollywood Back Lot Brawl. And of course we can't forget when Eddie Gilbert did that to Jerry Lawler in Memphis.

AWA...Colonel DeBeers vs. Derrick Dukes. If DeBeers won he would paint Dukes (black man) white. If Dukes beat DeBeers, he would paint the Apartheid savior black.

Vince is a upper-class, 60-year-old white male. He has ZERO street cred, first of all. Regardless of the use of it...the word nigger, nigga, or whatever connotation it is to be used in or spelling it has is completely ignorant. I don't care if it's Vince, 50 Cent, or my black friends using it. In fact I won't let them use it around me...if my using the word gets them angry, then there is no need for them to use the word around me. Now, what I see with Vince using this with Cena is how desperate he is to keep Cena as an anti-establishment face like Austin was. He's trying to keep that edge on Cena, to give him that street cred Vince definitely lacks and, to be honest, that Cena is sorely lacking also. Difference between Cena and Austin is that Austin's character seemed more natural, Cena strikes me as he's trying to force his Thuganomics image and it just ain't working.

Actually...that was in 1990 at the Clash of Champions X when Sting was kicked out of the Horsemen when he refused to give up his title shot against Flair at Wrestlewar '90.

Nebraska is ranked above Iowa...that fucking blows. This takes away all my Nebraska jokes.

A few years ago I used to work for the local ESPN Radio affiliate in Des Moines part-time...as of 3 years ago we had ESPN, Fox Sports, and Sporting News affiliates...now we're stuck with just the FSR and they all sound the same. The only host worth halfway listening to is JT the Brick. I catch Mike and Mike on ESPN News in the mornings, I want people to tell me something I didn't know what's going on. Attitude and in-your-face sports talk gets a bit boring after a while, if I want to yell I can open up a window. Jim Rome really just annoys me now...he has the same schtick he did back in 1995. It's like Letterman's running joke of the night...funny maybe the first time or two, by the time he tells it for the 100th time it's no longer even close to worth a chuckle. I got turned off when he started shilling for NASCAR and as a Hawkeye fan he rips on how Kirk Ferentz is overrated just because Ferentz won't appear on his show. Ferentz is a guy that is totally devoid of ego or anything remotely like it. Our local hosts on KXNO 1460 here are something else. The morning guy can rip on Hawkeyes for booing their QB, but he won't defend his stance the second the next caller shreds him for it. He does a backpedal that would make a basketball coach proud. The afternoon host is more listenable...Steve Deace...although he shills so much for Iowa State it's not even funny. Plus, he's a Michigan fan who went to Michigan State...talk about ironic. He doesn't grasp that there's a reason Iowa is called the Hawkeye State. I also listen to some of the other area stations...I do like Keitzman out of 810 in Kansas City and Mike North out of Chicago on 670 and I can pull those in pretty easily on my car radio. I'm a sports junkie so I might have to invest in XM so I can get my ESPN and Sporting News Radio fixes.

Good match. But a better one was the best-of-three falls one Flair and Steamboat had at Clash of Champions VI in New Orleans in '89...although Vince will never admit it per it was opposite WM 5 that day.

Can't hate on Bob Barker...he's still pimpin' it after all these years.

What about Al Gore and his inventing the Internet! Damn it, even goofed up history seems to not show Al any love.

DocOck...the Tony Schiavone of TSM.

Eddie could put anyone over with the way he worked...one moment that comes to mind for me was his match at Souled Out '97 against Syxx (Waltman) for the US title in a ladder match. The PPV was horrible...I have no idea what led me to spend money to watch it, but that match was a MOTY candidate.

Benoit at this point is un-signed so far as we know. This could have major repercussions as for the future of the brand split. Especially if Benoit does not re-sign...Smackdown is in major trouble now.

I have no idea what to say here. At first I thought it was one of those bad rumors that somehow get started about a big-time wrestler passing that finds their way around the Net once every couple of months. I lower my head for the ten-bell salute to him...I really don't have anything else to say at this moment.

Morris is rolling in his grave right now.

I'm a father of two little kids...and today the wife, myself, and the little uns go to the mall to get some shopping done for the kids. The Mrs. goes off with our three-year-old son, and I go off with my 11-month-old daughter the other way. My son goes into orbit and has a fit since he can't stand to be out of the sight of his sister for too long, lol. I'd take him but I wanted to look at Christmas gifts for him without him being there. As I'm coming back and I see the rest of the clan, my son is once again in temper tantrum mode. We're talking full-blown, kicking and screaming, yelling and crying, arms and legs flailing mode. Just picture the old Jericho and Christian tantrums combined. My wife grabs him by the arm and scolds him...no whipping his rear end that my parents would have done to me back in the day if I pulled a stunt like that. These two ladies walk by and see what's happening and come over to start yelling at my wife for scolding our son. What happened next about put ME over the edge...and I'm a pretty mellow guy for the most part. One woman shoves my wife...the other woman says that perhaps she needs to take my son to security and discuss what happened so at that moment she grabs him by the arm. Naturally he's pissed at his mother but he doesn't know what to think so he doesn't want to go with them. She's trying to take him away and my son is crying for Mom. My wife shoves back the other lady...hard...knocks her on the ground in fact. At that moment, I am up to them and I say, "Excuse me, is there something wrong here?" Very calm, very chilled. The woman says, "This is none of your concern honey, so you go on and do your thing." She's an older woman, about 5 foot tall...I'm 5'10", 205...and I again approach her and say, "When you're starting to make off with my child, that makes it my business." She started to make some smart-mouth comment as she's walking away...I don't remember what the rest was said I was so pissed. So as she's walking away, I grab her by the scruff of the neck, grip hard enough to get her attention and say, "Excuse me...you're walking off with my son! That makes it my business and if you take one more step it's going to be the ER's business since I'm going to break your fucking neck!" She lets go and says, "I'm going to tell the police!" I tell her go ahead, her friend assaulted my wife and she tried to kidnap my son. And I said also, "And I meant what I said about you if you take one more step with my child!" I am so mad I was shaking by that point...fortunately a friend of mine that is a manager at one of the stores in the mall came up to us at that point. He said that he saw the whole thing and would be happy to testify to security what they were doing. Security comes and has to go through everything...rent-a-cops are as useless as tits on a bull in most cases. Eventually I find out one of the ladies said that she had seen her grandson being abused by his parents and couldn't stand to see that happen. I didn't want to hear it, I'm so furious I know I can't see straight and the last thing I said to her as she tried to apologize is, "You had no right to interfere as my wife was not beating our child...mind your own business in the future." I have to wonder...did I do the right thing and handle it the right way? I understand that children are treated terribly all over but my wife did nothing that was really out of line. And I'm oldschool in my child rearing...my dad would have beat the shit out of me and my siblings for pulling a stunt like that in the mall. All I saw was someone taking my child and I wasn't going to stand for it.

It's obvious this post has clearly jumped the shark.

The answer to A.)...a suit and tie...or sport coat, tie, and slacks. The better dressed you are the easier to impress.

And apparently it wasn't big enough for them to actually keep those teams in L.A.

Why the hell is the NFL so hard-up to put a franchise in Los Angeles when in the span of about a couple of months in 1994 they lose BOTH their teams? The people of L.A. don't care one iota about having the NFL in their town.

I keep hoping that someone will put out a good wrestling game for the PC. Is that too much to ask?

Jeff Jarrett..."Power-Trippin'"-Monster Magnet Rhyno..."Bodies"-Drowning Pool Raven..."Even Flow"-Pearl Jam 3LK..."Welcome to the Terrordome"-Public Enemy

It makes most of their fanbase giggle. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Translated...if Vince and the gang chuckles about it in the board room it must be funny. I appreciate a good fart joke as much as the next guy but come on.

Sid in a promo before his match with Hogan at WM 8..."There's two kind of bees. There's the bee that makes honey...and THEN THERE'S YOU FATSO! THERE'S THE USED TO BE!" Ole Anderson telling Thunderbolt Patterson he's dumping him as a tag partner for his nephew Arn. "I look at Arn and I see everything that an Anderson should be...today is a free day. Tomorrow watch your back!" Gave me chills when I saw that.

At a friends' funeral years ago, his best friend wanted to use "End of the Road" by Boys II Men...that song would make it sound like they were gay lovers.

I don't care if T.O. is probably the best wide receiver in the NFL right now...he's a cancer to his team and a detriment to the game. Whether he returns or not depends on how well (or poorly) they play against the Redskins tonight. If they seem to be fine...he's done.
