The chorus of 'Speed of Sound' makes me want to blow my brains out. It sounds as if Martin is being castrated as they progress through this shit. Runner-up is 'Rich Girl', because I can tolerate 'Hollaback Girl' and 'My Humps'. When has a song featuring Eve not sucked?

I got confused reading that paragraph on the vote, so I'm sticking with the way it is, whatever it is. "A" for me. Picks later.

My knowledge of the WWF web content was the AOL page, when I first discovered the web in April of 1997. There isn't much that I remember of it besides the "Downloads" Section (30 second .wav clips of theme music), WWF Trivia, and the soundbite of Vince McMahon introducing you to the homepage ("Welcome to the World Wrestling Federation on AOL dot com!")

5. USC v. Fresno State - OHMYGODREGGIEBUSH. 4. Rockets @ Warriors, overtime, 12/14/05 (last Wednesday) - Trailing by 3, Luther Head at the end of regulation sinks a three to say "fuck you" to the Oakland crowd. Yao jumping up and down like an idiot, along with the lone Rockets fan in the arena going bananas, put the exclaimation point on that shot. 3. Giants @ Seahawks, Week 12 - I've never had so much fun watching a game where I hated both teams. 2. Louisville/West Virginia, Sweet Sixteen - I don't remember much about the game anymore besides Pitsnoggle and Dean's seven treys despite being dead from the waist down. 1. USC @ Notre Dame - You don't find many games anymore when you're jumping up and down yelling at the screen, yet not cheering for one team in particular. I switched allegiances about ten times in the fourth quarter.

Eight-way tie for first. Yeah!

In that vein, here's what I could dig up from sites; Bored probably has the complete list and team MVP awards somewhere: 1987 - UCLA QB Troy Aikman, Florida RB Emmitt Smith 1988 - Washingtion State RG Mike Utley 1990 - Syracuse QB Marvin Graves, Arizona CB Todd Burden 1992 - Kansas DT Dana Stubblefield 1995 - UCLA RB Karim Abdul-Jabbar, Kansas QB Mark Williams 1996 - Navy QB Chris McCoy 1997 - Washington QB Rashaan Shehee 1998 - Colorado QB Mike Moschetti, Oregon QB Akili Smith 1999 - Wake Forest QB Ben Sankey 2000 - Boston College QB Tim Hasselbeck I thought I would never read the name Rashaan Shehee again.

True, but they did 40,974 for the Oahu Bowl with Oregon State when Lelie played, which is arguably the best season the Warriors have had. AF/UW did 34,803 the year previous, and Georgia/Virginia did 24,187 in 2000. You can see the floor for those who will attend each game, and taking in account it was a Christmas-day doubleheader, that's death for the fans. And it will only get worse. Just move the date of the game away from Christmas already. Placing a two-day radius around Christmas day would be beneficial for the bowl.

Fair enough. The Hawai'i bowl rule was in place to safeguard against both teams not traveling well. At least with Hawai'i, you've got 50,000+ people willing to see the Warriors play in a bowl. With UCF/Nevada, there aren't many local residents who are willing to see that, and I have a hard time buying Central Floridians traveling here.

ESPN will probably pay half of Damon's contract as a "thank you" for all of the mileage they're going to get out of this.

Well, it is only the fourth annual, but I guess "ever" is appropriate for a pro wrestling forum.

On-air performer, executive producer, official job title (chairman) and stock dividends, according to Meltzer's past reports. The rest of the family each have their own salaries broken down like this.

8-6, and I could make the playoffs.

Having a daily Around The Horn article, although it may be wishful thinking, would be sick. Host a chat, have a set number of guys go in, run with a few topics, then post-edit the transcripts and post it up. It doesn't have to be done every day; to achieve the effect, it only has to be done after notable events (Monday morning, post-RAW/Smackdown/MNF/PPV/big event).
-
Here's a free idea that people may remember - ditch the seperate RAW/Smackdown reviews, and bring back "The Booking Report" article, which pitted each show's segments against each other for the week at hand. It was a unique take that allowed me to skip the recaps at other sites and get a general feel for how the week played out.

I'd like to simultaneously cast votes for a and c.. Both are good options. Tampa Bay Kansas City Denver Houston Carolina Dallas N.Y. Jets Pittsburgh Indianapolis Seattle San Francisco Cincinnati Cleveland) St. Louis Chicago Green Bay DET: 13

Meh. It's a made-for-South Park premise, anyway. I know what you're saying, though (case in point: "Rebound" which had been delayed for over two years). It's not as if the South Park episode took the edge off of the story - it can't translate to the big screen well.
-
I noticed the trailer on iTunes for the movie - that was June of LAST YEAR. Maybe they should've got off of their asses and put out the movie.
-
Kidd, Iverson, Nash, Billups, Davis, Marbury, Arenas, Bibby and the rest is inconsequential. Miller, Cassell and Parker right outside if it matters.
-
Rocky keeps in touch with Meltzer, out of the journalists. I don't see how it is out of the realm of possibility that Rocky keeps up with some angles, especially if friends of his in the business are regularly in contact with him.

Their defensive line is pretty damn good - Sporting News had it rated as the best in the league going into this season. Their linebackers are young beasts. Secondary isn't anything to worry about, but it can sway either way from game to game. Adding veterans to the pack may be the solution to that. If you want problematic areas, look towards their offensive line - it's just ass on the corners. They certainly don't need another quarterback, since they have Orlovsky in the wings when Garcia fails.

From some of the skits, you can see why Chappelle hated it. Aside from the Howard Dean and Cribs skits, the rest is just terrible attempts at branching out the characters. I mean, you think it was his idea to get Susan fucking Sarandon in on a Lil' Jon joke? I guess the college fratboy would love that.

^ Lennon died sometime around 10:45 p.m. From Wikipedia, who I usuallly take a grain of salt with, but they do sum up the ESPN segment well... ...and another summary of that segment...

You know, by the time the Pacers' deadline on trading Artest comes to pass (ten days), every team in the league will be throwing players at Indiana.

They're teasing, of all fucking people, SHANNON MOORE and EARL HEBNER for three straight weeks with no payoff. If you're going to invest the time into the angle, this better (A) lead to a great angle, and/or (B) lead to a big match. It will do neither, and I'm pissed that people are going to invest their time to see a product that will fail to get better in the coming future. They've been treading water on Impact since it began. They have to realize that to build to a profitable pay-per-view (something that they have to do because they're not making money from television), you have to do something of consequence on television. The same thing goes with their pay-per-views. At least with the WWE, you will likely get the blowoff on PPV if you're willing to pay - with TNA, there's no guarantee of anything happening on any given week, whether it's free or costs thirty bucks. It doesn't look like Rhyno will even be sent down to the mid-card for a bit, either; Jarrett willl just cycle through all of the faces until it's time for guys to come up again.
