RVD's theme music was written and performed by a personal friend of his, Kushinator. It's been the intro music for his site for a while as well.

Sorry to nitpick...but it's "drivel", not "dribble." http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/dribble http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/drivel -- See definition number two.

2010 Schedules have been released. AFC East teams will be playing NFC North teams. I believe the Jets and Patriots each have 9 games against 2009 playoff teams. I can't remember every team that made it last year, and I lack the ambition to look up that information.

Brother, you made me laugh out loud.

Look, I'll just say this...it's obvious that men in this country like women who compete or perform to the best of their abilities. Nothing is more highly respected and valued than a woman's organization that does everything the men's organization does. And when it comes to athletics, there is no gender gap, women are just as talented as men. And that's why the WNBA is the most popular sports league in the Universe right now.

I knew exactly ONE (1) kid that this worked on. He told me that he would screw up and his father would talk...and talk...and talk...for hours on end about how disappointed he was and everything else. So, to avoid the endless lecture, he stayed out of trouble. But, he was a smart person and a lot of what he father said probably sunk in, too. It seems like it would take a smart kid, a smart parent, and a block of free time. He once said, "I wish he would just slap me upside the head, it'd be over faster and I bet you my head would hurt less anyway!"

What, you don't remember how well Rey Mysterio's title reign went when he was booked to lose all the time? He set box office RECORDS, baby! They were hanging from the rafters to see The Great Khali beat the champion clean in three minutes. Non-title though...so...

Yeah, I pretty much agree. RVD with the belt is a good thing, but it seems like they could have slow-cooked things a bit more. At least until the next PPV. But Russo and Bischoff have never been afraid of hotshotting, have they? We'll see if they can keep things interesting, or if they'll burn themselves out.

Yes, yes, y-e-s. I saw a kid, maybe four or five years old, punch his mom in the leg because he was angry at something. Do you know what would have happened if I punched my mother when I was four or five? I wouldn't be here today, because if my mother hadn't slapped me so hard I couldn't remember my name, my father would have powerbombed me off the roof of our house. For that matter, I'm sick of parents who ask their toddlers what they want to do. My girlfriend had one of her friends over to our house, and of course this friend has kids. The kid starts getting interested in my altar of electronics (PS3, 360, Wii, and my very very nice receiver) and I'm understandably nervous. Kid then starts trying to sit on my glass coffee table, which is not made for sitting. So the mom asks "Do you want to sit on the couch next to me?" and the kid says no. Mom goes to put the kid on the couch, kid starts to cry, and the mother actually APOLOGIZES to the kid and lets her continue. I wanted to slap the **** out of this woman, because her kid is going to be a spoiled little girl. My father would have told, not asked, me to sit down. And once I did, if I tried to get up, it would take only one "look" from him to melt me back into my seat for fear that I'd catch a spanking. Kids are not miniature adults, do not treat them as such. In my next installment, I'll bitch about people who have pets and refer to them as their "children." Not in a cute way, but in a serious, "I don't have real children, so these are my children" sort of way. Oh yeah, your pet is a child? Well, let me ask you...does your pet watch toy commercials and bug the **** out of you until you buy the toys? Does it complain that its clothes are ugly and the other dogs are making fun of it? Does it need to go to college? DOES IT?! Okay, rant over.

Spelling and grammar errors. Seriously, I am a fiend for this stuff. Typos here and there are okay, people make mistakes. But people who don't even make an attempt to come across as coherent cause my head to explode...metaphorically. But I've given up when it comes to calling them on it. I usually get "yea srry my spleling is bad lol" as a response. Oh, and people who write "loose" or "looser" when they mean "lose" or "loser." This is our freakin' language here, people! Learn to use it correctly, schools teach you this stuff every year for like a decade and a half.

I honestly never even considered that Revis wasn't a rookie...even though the Jets are divisional opponents, I never remember hearing his name called. He just seemed to come out of nowhere. Chalk that one up to ignorance on my part. So scratch that remark... But I would disagree that the Pats only have a few pressing needs...left tackle is beginning to look like a trouble spot, and for a right handed QB the LT position is one of the top five or six most important spots on a team. They need to get a long-term answer at DE, a young inside LB, a good running back, a good corner, a TE (Alge Crumpler is not the answer), and they should consider taking a tall, deep-threat receiver since Moss is starting to fade a bit, and he's gone after this season anyway. I feel okay about the safeties and the quarterback, and I agree that Edelman is going to become a "slot machine" and take the sting out of the Welker situation...but everything else, to me, is suspect. Certainly, Belichick is a master at putting guys in the right position to succeed, and there's no situation that confronts him that he won't be prepared for. But I wonder just how many "diamonds" are out in that rough? It's a question that's essentially impossible to answer. My personal feeling is that their time in the sun is coming to an end. As a fan, I hope that's not the case. But as an unbiased fan of the sport of football as a whole, that's my opinion. EDIT: The lead "headline", if you can call it that, on the Sports Illustrated Truth & Rumors section is "Jets Pushing Hard To Sign Taylor."

A very suspect LB corps really hurt the Patriots defense over the last two seasons. Absolutely no coverage in the middle of the field, not much of a pass rush either. Of course, that also falls on your DEs. You get a wide receiver out in space with a time to get free, a great corner suddenly looks completely average. Of course...an outright ****ty set of DBs didn't do them many favors. How their defense was ranked as well as it was is very misleading. The Jets got some amazing play from their rookie DB, Revis, and at times Sanchez showed flashes of the player he could someday become. Those two need to avoid the so-called "sophomore slump" and hope that with a whole season of film on them that no one detects an exploitable flaw. Those two, with the off-season acquisitions added to the mix (not to mention the confidence inspired by their deep playoff run despite not winning the division) makes for a very potent team. Like I said, I'm a Pats fan, but to be truly objective...I would not be surprised come January if the it's the Jets taking the division and the Pats pushing for a wild card spot. Then again, I wouldn't be surprised if the roles were reversed. Schedule comes out Tuesday...

Suddenly the East is looking very, very competitive. It may be a three team race...and the Bills, with their good special teams, could surprise some people depending on how they do in the draft. They need a QB and probably a strong left tackle to protect him, but they could do it. I think the sun is setting on the Patriots...which pains me greatly. Hey, I'm no bandwagon fan, I started watching in the '92 season when they were...what 2-14? Then came Parcells and Bledsoe...so when they were going to five Superbowls in a span of about ten years and six AFC title games, I felt like I'd suffered enough to justify it. But damn man, the Jets are making us New England fans nervous as hell. Whatever LT has left in the tank, Ryan will get all of it out him, and maybe even more.

I'm not gonna kick any of them out of bed, that's for damn sure. They think they know how to wrestle? I'd show them so many holds they wouldn't what the hell to do. I'd pick up Lacey and scoop slam her right onto my living room floor and tag her out right there.

I would be friggin' flabbergasted! There was a comedian whose name escapes me that said "Watching two women together is every man's fantasy. Seeing two men together has to be every woman's nightmare. You ever seen a man bent over from behind? Looks like an overgrown goat."

No one has anymore ideas for the renaming of The Band? I figure we'd all have a good ol' laugh at their expense... I would suggest...The Grey Wolves, The Silver Fox, and my personal favorite...the Septuagenarians. Look it up if you need to. It made me chuckle when I thought of it. And just to throw in my two cents...when it comes to alternative sexualities, men and women are definitely held to different standards. The idea of a lipstick lesbian or a woman who "swings both ways" is quite accepted (at least to the extent that these orientations are accepted). However, alternative sexualities for men are judged much differently. I'm certainly not above it. The thought of a good-looking woman enjoying the pleasures of both a man and a woman at the same time (on film, with many, many angles) is rather enticing. But a man, even one who is in fantastic shape like OJ, having sexual congress with another man...even when a beautiful woman is involved in some capacity...I'm decidedly less interested. Granted, that's only me, but I feel pretty confident that there are others who share a similar viewpoint. And OJ is really the least of my personal concerns. I'm more upset about the fact that a once promising wrestling company that had some of the best young wrestlers, guys who were given somewhat of an opportunity to get over and put their talents on display, have been completely pushed aside in favor of guys like Matt Morgan, Rob Terry, and a bunch of 40, 50, and holy-effing-ess 60 year olds!

Nash is definitely an eloquent guy, not to mention witty as hell. You can tell that he's a very intelligent person. But he'd also be the first to tell you that he's a prick, as is Scott Hall. He's said as much on many, many occasions. So I don't know if I would peg Nash as an "awesome guy." Funny? Yes. Good for business? I have to say no. Much like Lance Storm, I quit TNA after Monday's show. Every episode for the last month has been a disappointing struggle, and prior to that the show wasn't even that good.
