  1. I just saw the replay of the PPV and Orton's injury was really crazy. Everything just changed all of a sudden and the crowd was so silent that it made it bad to see the ending. You could see both of their faces when the referee finished the count out and they just looked disappointed because the crowd hated it. I guarantee that match was supposed to go on for another 5-10 minutes at least. It's too bad and I hope he isn't out for too long. Orton is insanely over right now and that's a pretty big blow to WWE.
  2. I truly think Heyman's promo on the first ECW One Night Stand PPV was 100% him and he was just limited to not bashing WWE. The JBL comment alone was awesome. I'll remember that forever.
  3. From what I saw of the promo he wasn't bragging about accomplishing more than the WWE pro's - he was talking about pure wrestling ability. He was just flat out saying, "I'm a better wrestler. I know it. And you know it." When you break it all down it's your average heel/upset babyface promo.
  4. A bit random but I was just thinking about how Justin Roberts has really improved from when he started announcing on the ECW brand. I didn't see many ECW shows back then, but something just seemed odd about him. Watching some RAW stuff lately I've noticed he's actually pretty decent.
  5. Yep. That's what I liked about it. And there were definitely times when he was stumbling over words but he never let it drag him down completely.
  6. I had to go check out the segment on WWE.com because of what people were saying in this thread. That was definitely an awesome promo. I marked out hard for all the jabs at McMahon and the jabs at Cole being "a poor man's replacement for JR."
  7. Can't argue with you on that one. Why do I love scrambling QBs so much? For that exact reason. They'll take the hit if it gets them the first down. It takes me back to The Replacements - that QB who Falco replaces does a baseball slide when he could have dove for the first down. What an awesome movie. I will survive!
  8. Not sure why I put 5-10 when clearly the season is 16 games. I plead type-o! You have to admit that sometimes a set of receivers working together is better than having a franchise WR and two mediocre players. I think with the Patriots they just all clicked with Brady. They sure made it work.
  9. For historical accuracy - Peyton lead his team to a 5-10 record in 2001. The same year Mr Overhype (one of the many nicknames I have for Brady) made it to the Super Bowl and won it. I would have preferred to see the team who beat my Titans a year before win for the second year in a row. I'll agree that Brady didn't have any "name" WRs when he started. The one he did - Terry Glenn - was suspended during that '01 season. To say Troy Brown wasn't a good WR would be BS, but he certainly played a bigger role in the return game. To say he didn't have any receivers for the two other Super Bowls isn't correct. He had Deion Branch, David Patten, and David Givens. Having a big TE like David Graham was a big thing for them as well because they didn't use the spread offense at the time. He had all four of them for the two SB wins ('03 and '04). Also - whose had the best defense throughout their starting career? Tom Brady. Period.
  10. Friday Night Lights is a good show. I've liked all of the seasons thus far. I saw the entire season they're airing on NBC right now a few months ago when they originally showed them on a DirecTV exclusive channel.
  11. I'm biased because I hate the Patriots with a passion. Brady hit legendary status because of the '07 season - he'll never get close to those stats again. I would bet everything I own and the air in my lungs that the Patriots will not get to another Super Bowl with Tom Brady as their QB. The dynasty years are over.
  12. I get where you're coming from with Roode. He has the look of a breakout singles star. And however much I like Beer Money it will never replace what I felt for AMW. Storm and Harris were awesome together.
  13. I don't see them ever releasing Abyss. They've put way too much time into his character to let him go. They've basically killed the character he once had that people enjoyed though. Letting go of LAX would be a mistake - they're such a good tag team if they bring them back together. Robert Roode is a good talent and Beer Money was one of their most over babyface teams and now they get good heat as heels. Neal and Moore won't be going anywhere as long as TNA stays in Florida because that crowd loves them. I doubt they'd get half the reaction they get anywhere else in the US. I bet Hebner has such a nice contract with TNA and letting him go would be a good thing. Create your own head referee that's involved with controversial stuff. Why do they think bringing in a popular referee helps a match? I saw him reffing the Knockout match from Sacrifice and he could barely move around the ring with them.
  14. I was starting to dislike her towards the end but like you said, she was a major part of the overall story. There are so many things left unanswered with that season. What happens to the kids? The baby? How does Dexter react? All of those questions hit me like a ton of bricks when the season ended because throughout all of the seasons you can see the change in Dexter's character because of Rita. Is all of that null and void now? Does he become worse than he was? What a show.
  15. I've talked to a lot of people who watch that show and they said they hated him on that show. My response - ?!?!?!?! I thought he was marvelous guest starring the entire season. He played his character perfectly. I've read there is a lot of interest from actors to guest star on that show, so it will be very interesting to see who they bring in next season. The ending to this past season made me flip out for about 5 minutes afterwards. It was just me thinking to myself... "how can things be perfect and then complete ****?"
  16. Yeah. This season of BB has been the best thus far. Everyone seems to be "breaking bad" this season - Skylar and Hank at least. I love the relationship between Walt and Gus. Overall just a bad ass show that nobody seems to know about. I ask a friend of mine, "ever seen Breaking Bad?" - "what the hell is that?" - "just the coolest show on TV today." How could I forget about Dexter... that has gotta be one of the best shows going today as well. Most of these shows I have to catch online because I either don't get the channel or forget it's on. I don't watch TV every day but I do have about 5 shows that I like to stay up to date with. I really like Mike and Mike In The Morning on ESPN. Sometimes when I have nothing important to do in the morning I watch that from 6am to 10am while working on PCs. They cover everything that's happening in sports to the point where I don't need to watch SportsCenter for anything.
  17. I really think ABC has just been creating flashy TV. With Lost they make a "wow" or "holy ****" moment right before a commercial. FlashForward and V have been trying to do the same thing which annoys me. Doing that at the beginning and end of the show is great but when you're constantly trying to put heavy importance on a bunch of little things it makes it hard to care about the whole package. I've watched all of FlashForward and I think the biggest problem was that really long break they took from December to March or whatever it was. I've only been watching episodes on Hulu because I never remember its on. Season finale of House tonight was bad ass. Anyone watch Breaking Bad? That show is probably my favorite on TV.
  18. All I can say is it was awesome and that I'm one of Anderson's '*******s'. EDIT: This is the first TNA PPV I've actually watched all of without missing a match or two. I did miss the Sting vs Jarrett match but we all saw it 10 years ago and we saw it 5 years ago. Not missing much there.
  19. I'm hoping Madison Rayne has a wardrobe malfunction.
  20. I went to a house show here in Maine in December and Abyss got a really dull reaction from the crowd. My older brother who hadn't been to wrestling in years (neither had I) but had watched and gone to events the entire time growing up - his exact words about Abyss after seeing his match, "he's nothing more than a glorified jobber." It was disappointing that he said that because I like Abyss... or at least I like the idea of Abyss. Thinking about it some more he's probably right because seeing his matches he does have some serious weak spots. Best thing TNA has going for them at their house shows are doing the pictures in the ring after the show. They're making some serious cash because at least 50% of the people at every show will do it. I remember back when I saw an indy fed as a kid and getting in the ring for a pic with Tito Santana was like $5 and TNA is charging like $20 if I heard them correctly when I was there. It was the first time TNA came to Maine and it was cool to see the six-sided ring for the first and last time before they made the switch. Beer Money were babyfaces at the time when they came here and they got the biggest pop. If I remember correctly it was better than Angle's pop. I guess that just tells you where our priorities are up here in the Northeast.

  22. <p>A Super Bowl in NY would be awesome. The things that are available to fill up the week leading to the game are endless. I obviously don't live in NY and don't know how the economy is but I bet it's better than most places because of all the tourism they receive year round. It's not as if the city (really) needs it - I'm sure some other places could benefit more. </p><p> </p><p> I've only been to NYC twice but both times were memorable. I had been to cities like Boston and Montreal, but NYC was like nothing I'd ever seen before. Being from Maine that isn't saying much, but it sure left a hell of an impression on me.</p>
  23. I swear when I watch my niece and nephew I have completely different rules then my brother and sister-in-law. They let them get into everything, eat whatever they want without asking, and they never pick up after themselves. How a child acts reflects on the parenting and I don't want to say my brother is a crappy parent because he's not - he's just way too easy and lets too much slide without bringing down the hammer.
  24. Favorite part of that movie is when Goldberg yells at him for puking on him in a tag team match when he was hungover or drunk and Jimmy responds, "Well the crowd liked it."
