Guest Ulf ist Gut Report post Posted February 18, 2002 The other night at No way Out, Scott hall said, and i quote, "We're marks just like you". As smarks, i say we take action agains this blatent slandering of our good name so i have a devious plan that took me ages to think up. what we do is whenever he comes out or anything we boos him really loud and chher for his opponent. Genious aye. That'll teach him, teach him good ps. Ulf ist Gut Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Brian Report post Posted February 18, 2002 We're all marks. Every smark is just a mark. It's no secret. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Valcourt Report post Posted February 18, 2002 I am just glad Brian said it before I did. Every Smark is a mark. And if you really think about it, a smark is an even bigger mark than a "mark" but of course no one on this board will admit it. Ok, flame me now.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Tony149 Report post Posted February 18, 2002 Yeah, we're all "marks", but called "smarks" because we know a little more than "marks". If that makes any sense. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Brian Report post Posted February 18, 2002 They just have a higher preferences. Until you can look at things without bias and preferences over wrestlers, than you're not a smart. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Dr. Wrestlingphysics Report post Posted February 18, 2002 The only thing that makes us "smarks" is that we know what the term "mark" means! Most of the crowd had now idea what he meant until he said the "We're just fans" bit straight after saying the "m" word. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Ulf ist Gut Report post Posted February 18, 2002 Urm, yes, but,urm, maybe he was saying we just cheer who he wants (envisage man in hole continuing to dig) ps. Ulf ist Gut Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest cynicalprofit Report post Posted February 18, 2002 Hall is right, the reason we watch wrestling is because we are all marks. Its the reason you watch. You care and you get entertained. Smarks just happen to think they know what could be done to make it better. If they aren' playing up the nWo is really evil hiding behind niceness, then what hall said honestly touched me in a small way, because it was then very honest and very true. Because the reason every wrestler did get into wrestling is because they are a mark. Well except maybe goldberg and shamrock and what not. I forget who said it, but ever wrestler is the biggest mark for themselves. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Brian Report post Posted February 18, 2002 Shamrock didn't start out shoot fighting. He was doing worked shoots in Japan before he started in Pancrase or Pride or whatever. He has a pro-wrestler upbringing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest dreamer420 Report post Posted February 18, 2002 I thought Hall's speech ruled! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Brian Report post Posted February 18, 2002 I loved the part where Hall was talking about having a beer with the guys, then Nash turned to him and said no. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest dreamer420 Report post Posted February 19, 2002 Lawler even said "No! Not You!" after the beer comment. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest The Electrifyer Report post Posted February 19, 2002 It was kind of ironic how, despit Nash and Hogan saying, "No, no you", Hall was the one who grabbed the six-pack of beer and offered it to Austin. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest x-LJSexay-x Report post Posted February 19, 2002 Smarks are just marks who feel that being called marks is an insult to their intelligence of the business.... and Shamrock started out as a pro wrestler. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
