Atlanta Braves: Greg Maddux. Chicago Bulls: Duh... San Francisco 49ers: Joe Montana. UH football: Ashley Lelie or Jason Elam. UH basketball: Anthony Carter.

Actually, that piece of Browns history belongs to Baltimore now... Just kidding.

HBK/Bulldog from One Night Only as an extra made the purchase worthwhile for me.

goes... you're wrong. I'm referring to foreign athletes that compete OUTSIDE of the United States. You know, since the only names Americans can come up with are Beckham (only the biggest athlete in the WORLD) and athletes that already compete here.

Soccer players and boxers? Mentioned in the the UNITED STATES? You HAVE been living under a rock.

In case you've have or (in this case) haven't noticed, foreign athlete's awe-inspiring accomplishments are often overlooked by the US media. Case in point...EVERY FOREIGN ATHLETE EVER. Vick hasn't accomplished anything statistically as of this post. So what do we go by? His athletic achievements - Vick's dash time and arm strength - are why the media fawns over him. What makes Armstrong a media darling? Not only has he fought back from a life-threatening disease, he captured FIVE CONSECUTIVE Tour De France championships, the most grueling athletic competition in the world today. If accomplishments didn't factor in the athleticism of an individual, every two-sport Joe Schmo would be considered better athletes than Vick OR Armstrong. I'd like to think that Lance Armstrong is more of an athlete than Brian Jordan is/was.

That statistic has been there since the creation of the board - location hasn't.

Woah. Luckily, since I was hard up for money, I held out on purchasing the original DVD. Hopefully, WWE will be aiming this product at U.S. fans too (this is from silvervision.co.uk, a UK affiliate). U.K. Pricetag: £49.98

The Braves start a six-game homestand against a hot Padres team (7-3 in their last ten games) and finish with a weekend series against the NL Central-leading Astros (8-3 on the road). The starters need a few more wins until their belt to boost their confidence - the rotation has a 6-10 record between them - so these series are crucial despite it being so early into the season.

Garnett had a better #2 (Sczerbiak), #3 (Hudson) AND #4 (Nesterovic) option statistically than Duncan did (Parker, Jackson and Rose, respectively). Timberwolves' 2002-2003 regular season statistics. Spurs' 2002-2003 regular season statistics. Garnett came out first, the first guy in TWENTY YEARS to jump from high school. In that case, doesn't the player who set the precedent earn the scrutinization?
-
Pacers over Heat in 5. Pistons over Nets in 6. Spurs over Lakers in 6. (my opinion was unaffected by today's game) Timberwolves over Kings in 7.
-
Garnett didn't do anything overly impressive to deserve the award last year. The one edge he had over Duncan stat-wise was the small difference in rebounding (13.40 to 12.90), but that was overshadowed by the Spur's regular season (best record in the NBA).

Can't find any archived news from Meltzer, so you'll have to settle for Keller's report. Replying to BBCW's response... IIRC, the Horsemen was only going to be reformed after Flair's return. But after hearing what Bischoff had planned for them direction-wise (jobbing to the nWo B-Team), Flair refused to go through with it.

Using the WWE's reasoning: No real way to explain it, but the RAW title took the lineage to the WCW/World Title, because it holds the same nameplate as the WCW/World title prior to Vengeance '01 (which was held by the Rock). Subsequently, the WWE title would hold the lineage to the WWF title (held in December '01 by Steve Austin). RAW and Smackdown held both lineages together by keeping the Undisputed Title around after the draft. When Brock refused to defend the title against a RAW worker after Summerslam '02, he forfeited the right to be the "Undisputed" Champion. Therefore, Bischoff had the right to claim a part of the lineage, in order to place the World title on HHH's shoulder. There's no real reasoning behind WHY Bischoff took the World lineage to the title, and not the WWE title lineage.

They switched the address about two weeks ago, so that's the updated link.

Heat now up 3-2 in the series. Wolves with an early lead 21-17, and this is looking to have a few brawls before all is said and done. Refer to my new custom name for motivation.
