    This is the NFL Preseason Thread

    It's scary how "whoseyourmama" is spreading and CJ didn't help matters.

    This is the NFL Preseason Thread

    Im asking, "With that around him, why did he come back?". I wasn't knocking Favre directly, although the man just isn't as capable at producing magic as he once was.

    Good lord, why did Favre stick around?

    Batista had two seperate injuries in the last year, while Orton has maintained his health more consistantly over the last year.

    Question about wrestling schools

    A good school to go to are the ones that have good reputations or have a quality roster of trainees. The obvious choices are the Storm Academy, ROH Wrestling Academy (trainer=Danielson with special seminars from talent like KENTA) and Les Thacther's school in Cincinnati. The money shouldn't be a factor but even if it's the most expensive, doesn't mean its the best. Being the cheapest isn't neccesarily indicative that it's the worse. Do through research. If you have a particular style you think you can do, look through that avenue. If you plan to be a high-flying garbage type, doing Danielson or Storm's school wouldn't be the smartest move as they will be more about technical wrestling.
  6. You are aware that #1 contenders match don't really have much validity, right? It's giving matches a reason for occuring.
  7. So he's the only contender because he doesn't have a current storyline? Yeah, that makes sense. Carlito has been consistantly over and improving by leaps and bounds since the face turn, Carlito has the brighter future. That doesn't mean another title reign really does anything for Carlito. It doesn't do something for pretty much anyone right now.
  8. Why? ECW is built no differently then Smackdown and Raw. What should be done is more wrestlers and less non-wrestlers being the focus. Also Raw and Smackdown needs to be even. That was the reason SD was under represented at Slam.

    Kurt Angle released!

    Someone should point the AP to the truth, and then watch the fun. The AP really doesn't care about a story that'll get stuffed in the back of most sports pages. The mainstream will believe that Kurt was ruined by steroid abuse he is forced into and continue to buy the perception (though, accurate) that McMahon is a glorified carny act. They don't get the intricate details of why Kurt was let go and nor do they really care. All they know is that a legitimate athelete was ruined by Vince McMahon's fake carnival.
  10. "Huge comeback"? Jeff Hardy isn't going to be around by 2007, so they should get as much out of Jeff Hardy that they can before he self-destructs again (and he will), however...claiming that winning the IC would be "huge" is a foolish thing to say.

    The only realistic names left are Cena and Foley. Foley will probably the easiest time Hogan ever had to convince someone to lay down. I'm convinced Hogan would get confused by Foley's actions and demand to do the job himself. Hogan was willing to dicuss working with Cena and they appear to be on good terms with each other. Hogan, verbally put Cena over already. The rest of WWE roster has been through Hogan or aren't worth it in the eye of the company. There is Batista but they can't have two injury prone workers like Hogan and Batista working each other. Besides, Batista got as big a rub as you can get from HHH and getting one or laying down for Hogan doesn't do him any good. Cena is the one guy that Vince would go to the wall for against Hogan and Hogan is more likely to put Cena over then Austin because he knows that Cena will never directly challenge his status. Austin will always challenge it and there isn't a chance Hogan is willing to give Austin that.

    Vince has a big smile on his face with the repeat use of "entertainment wrestling".

    It is in KC. They have been there many times since Owen's death. I believe they had one of the early Smackdowns just a few months after the fact.

    No Hustler. Bitter losers at TSM.

    More stuff… So I’m not going to take the job at Hustler, just yet. The job offer is permanent, so I’m told. I guess connections (wherever it might be from) have merit after-all. I will just stick with unemployment for now as I’m figuring this semester will be loaded with material. I’m sure KKK and WP will be disappointed to hear that I won’t have any amusing porn store anecdotes for right now. Sorry, WP, can’t use my existence for your late night imagination. - I became addicted to a new TV show over the weekend as I was already deep into school-work. Everwood. On the surface, I always thought the premise of this story was antiquated and hokey but in reality, the show was really good. I’ve only seen the first season for now (My mother had it in her collection) and learning they canceled the show after I discovered it really disappoints me. I looked around and apparently the other seasons haven’t been released yet but I’m already waiting. It’s a pretty simple show with good characters, interesting plot and I liked how the lead female was a classic girl next door in terms looks. That’s not always the case with TV dramas depicting teenagers. Katie Holmes, Jeanie Garth, Jen Williams, Mischa Barton are hardly “normal” looking girls but this chick is and not only that, she completely reminds me of my first “love”…so its quite surreal watching the show for the obvious reasons… The problem with watching shows about the teenage years (the well written ones, that is) that it usually forces you to connect with your own years and you sorta get sad/nostalgic about those days. Every movie or TV show devoted towards the early 20’s is always so god-damn negative and cynical. Maybe I’m crazy, but life isn’t bad. I figure all those movies were the work of people who ignored life and living in high school and are bitter about missing out on life. A lot of those types are here and they have such scorching hatred for high school and popular society and create a false impression that they were better then it by not being apart of that world, but it’s a lie. Bitterness and contempt for something they could have prevented is unhealthy. If your life sucked growing up, if you weren’t popular, if you didn’t get the girl…so what? Put it behind you and make it work this time around. You only get a handful of years to make life worth living…don’t waste it by being bitterly pissed.

    No Hustler. Bitter losers at TSM.

    It was on WB, Monday nights. I believe after 7th Heaven. It lasted 4 seasons apparently. After watching just the first season, I can conclude that it was 100x better all 10+ seasons of drivel that 7th Heaven had...and yet people watched that and it was brought back from being canceled.
  16. In WWE's mind, Batista should have been over enough with a pro-ecw crowd. If this took place at a regular ECW TV taping outside of NYC...the reaction would obviously been different. Im entirely convinced someone purposely placed Batista in NYC with full knowledge that they would shit on Batista to the point it'd ruin Vince's favor with that venue.

    Kurt Angle released!

    You are aware that those people you mentioned, do work 2-4 times a week regularly. For at least 12 matches a month, at much faster and less rescricted pace...Joe, Daniels and Danielson are working more strenously then you think. Are you seriously going to say that Bryan Danielson, who worked two 60 minute draws over this weekend including a entire match with a seperated shoulder has it easier compared to Kurt? Who would work 2-3 10 minute matches at a reduced pace? All wrestlers are pushed to the brink regardless of how much they work per week.

    HBO Sunday Night Lineup

    Well, it's over. Quite frankly, I didn't care for this finale but a season with a depressed and/or vengeful Ari should be gold. I was half expecting Bob to croak, leaving the rights of the Ramones movie in question.
  19. Why do these Kelly Kelly photos get leaked so much? Or is it because Kelly Kelly looks like every single wannabe generic blond porn star that people get easily mistaken?

    Who do you think TNA should Sign?

    Daniels, Homicide and Joe are the obvious mentions. Anyone can "protect" someone as long as they have knowledge of what's going on and how to work around limitations.

    The 58th Annual Emmy Nominations...

    I hope not. The Office sure as hell deserved it. It did and I enjoyed The Office much more then A.D, it's just that A.D fanbase (small as it is) is really vocal.

    Leary in season 2 was nothing short of phenomenal, Keifer was just his usual self. I was more intrigued by Tommy Gavin.

    Aside from Sheen, any of these guys winning will be fine by me.

    Kurt Angle released!

    Aside from a couple people saying that they want Angle/Joe, who has been advocating Angle to partake in said dream matches? The general consensus has been that Angle needs to leave for good and that no promotion should hire him. Of course, that doesn't mean we're going to make the mistake of assuming that will occur. TNA, ROH and NOAH will be making offers and Angle will listen to them.
