Guest TSMAdmin Report post Posted January 2, 2004 I love that JHawk finally got some love on this thing (Nik and Dames were already on the list) but I guess I'll take it upon myself to email this fucker and enlighten him on Brandon's Shoot recaps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steviekick 0 Report post Posted January 2, 2004 Brandon's shoots should definitely be up there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
teke184 0 Report post Posted January 2, 2004 I politely e-mailed Flea and he said I was in a group of about 5-6 people he wanted to put on the list but didn't have room for. He said if the articles keep coming, chances are that I'll make it on the next list. If y'all want to get argumentative on my behalf, the only thing I ask is that it not get too ugly.

JHawk 0 Report post Posted January 2, 2004 I'm glad to see I made the list too, as I wasn't expecting that at all. Only 57 more of you to beat out now! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
UseTheSledgehammerUh 0 Report post Posted January 2, 2004 GLASS CEILING! JHawk is holding Bradshaw down. Total bullshit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest OnlyMe Report post Posted January 2, 2004 Wow, I made the list again... I'm shocked! Well done, JHawk. Nik Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Loss Report post Posted January 2, 2004 BOB MORRIS gets the tOA nod? No offense to Bob, but a list like this without jdw or Frank Jewett is just stupid. Then again, Flea probably only knows who Bob Morris is because he used to write for SK, and has no clue who anyone else is on the site. A legitimate 100 (sorry -- oxymoron) would include the better message board posters from here, DVDVR, SNKT, tOA, Coey's board, Zach Arnold's board, Wrestling Classics and such, mixed in with the more prominent writers (not just the 411/TSM crowd, but sites like Air Raid Crash, DVDVR and Highspots). Regardless of your personal feelings on Chris Coey, for his work as a reviewer, he should be mentioned. Then again, this appears to be more about ... well, I don't know what it's about. I think I gave it too much effort already anyway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Douche Report post Posted January 2, 2004 I think it's crap as usual. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
UseTheSledgehammerUh 0 Report post Posted January 3, 2004 Honestly, none of the people on this list really impact the business. They just cator to a deographic in the internet, which is cool for those people (myself included). Even the more noteworthy names, like the wrestlers, simply reply to other internet reports or send out messages for the internet. Until there is a TV program featuring internet reporters, or a PPV where we can watch Scott Keith and Bob Ryder argue over who will be the first to get laid, who cares? Such a list is really unnecessary. However, kudos to the guys who work/write/whatever for this site and got on it and feel appreciated, cause I've been a fan of this site, and Rantsylvania for a long time, its good shit.

Matt Young 0 Report post Posted January 3, 2004 Congratulations to the guys who made the list from here. I think Truitt should be on there, but maybe next year. Oh yeah, I'd also like to commend Jay Bower (who used to post here) along with Bob Barnett and Justin Baisden (who still do) on their work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brocklock 0 Report post Posted January 3, 2004 Why in the hell is Miss Michael Shane is three times better than HBK above Dames? If you don't know I'm talking about Tammy Lynn. That's probably my main problem, but other than that it's a decent list. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Douche Report post Posted January 3, 2004 Why in the hell is Miss Michael Shane is three times better than HBK above Dames? If you don't know I'm talking about Tammy Lynn. That's probably my main problem, but other than that it's a decent list. That's the only problem you see? 2. Jeremy Borash - www.nwatna.com Definitely agree on this one. I mean who can argue with AMW>TWGTT?.....right?..right? 3. Raven - theraveneffect.com Bringing us all the hot debate from the Attitude era 13. Dean Rasmussen - deathvalleydriver.com (Should be much higher as he's really funny even if sometimes he goes overboard or gets disjointed) 16. True or False (Various Wrestlers) - www.wwe.com/news/commentary/ At Number 16?!!! 21. Bret Hart - Slam! Wrestling At Number 21?! He should be on here but nowhere near this high as he hasn't said anything useful in a while. All he's talked about is how much of an idiot Angle is Steve Corino I don't put too much stock in the writing of a guy who's gimmick is to bring back old school but he used to blade in every damn match 26. Tammy Lynn Sytch - The Midnight News She shared her "candy" with the maker of this list 27. Rajah Kumar - rajahwwf.com Giving us all the HOTT NEWZ & RUMORZ 33. Damian Gonzalez - aka The Dames - thesmartmarks.com SNATCH LIPS EN FUEGO~!=Ratings 58. Jared "JHawk" Hawkins - thesmartmarks.com Who doesn't love all the clever (annoying) name play like Hunter's Huge Honker vs. Really Very Desperate 60. Nik Johnson - www.thesmartmarks.com Should be higher 63. PK - 411Mania.com/wrestling If it's Tony Koska or something like that from here, then MUCH higher 64. Mr. Tito - lordsofpain.net/ Lower...much lower. He's so damn biased. 86. Bradshaw - wwe.com/news/commentary Certainly beats Jared Hawkins. 99. Jay Bower - 411mania.com/wrestling Should be higher unless it's because of the lack of what he's done Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
