The HOF is not really about specifically dairy writing and has not been for years. It is more an overall board HOF now. So with your overall body of work, I would say you belong there. Also, don't sell yourself short on your diaries either. I have never been a huge fan of Japanese wrestling, but I always make it a point to check your stuff out because I know it is going to be quality work. I might not comment, because I feel I do not know enough to do so but after reading your diaries I always end up saying, "Hey maybe I should start playing as a Japanese promotion." Then I fire up a save and I say, "Yeah this is not going to work for me."

<p><strong>arwink:</strong> For being a fantastic diary writer. To me, arwink is probably the least talked about great writer on this board.</p><p> </p><p> <strong>Asaemon:</strong> For his contributions in the area of graphics and being an all-around nice guy to talk to about various things. </p><p> </p><p> <strong>Oldschool:</strong> His WWWF diary was one of the best I have ever read on here. He has come back to the board after a long hiatus and he's still a fantastic writer.</p>

Thanks for making me feel old. When I talking about wrestling just before I was born Billy Graham was still the WWWF Champion. I really liked the show. My favorite segment by far was the Tommy/Terry/Jack/Sullivan segment. I loved how you managed to take what could have been two seperate segments and put them together into one.

I came so close to choosing Captain Mike but I could not remember if it was Rotunda or Rotundo and I was too lazy to look it up so I went with Kevin Sullivan. Seriously though I remember people would always wonder what the correct spelling of his last name was back then. Because I believe he used both spellings during his career. Or I could totally be talking out of my ass.

That middle clown reminds me a little of Puddles the singing clown from YouTube...

I would have never noticed if you did not point it out, I think your English is just fine. Heck, English is my only language and I butcher it all of the time. SHANE DOUGLAS VS. SANDMAN MATT BORNE & CHRIS BENOIT VS. CACTUS JACK & MIKEY WHIPWRECK 2 COLD SCORPIO & RON SIMMONS VS. TERRY FUNK & TOMMY DREAMER JASON VS. JIMMY SNUKA I never really liked Jason, I am not sure why. DEAN MALENKO VS. THE TAZMANIAC STEVIE RICHARDS VS. ? Bons Question: who will answer Stevie Richards' challenge? I will go with another Varsity Club member Kevin Sullivan

The weird thing about the sale is that he bought the league with his ex-wife. Good for them that they still have a good enough relationship that they can work together and all, but it is odd to me. I don't know. I mean I hope it does because I like the Rock, but history has proven time and time again that a second league does not work (I am overlooking the CFL which is a slightly different beast, though enjoyable to watch.). Just off the top of my head without looking anything up, there was the AFL, AAFC (Which gave us the Browns and 49ers), WFL, the original XFL, the CFL's expansion into the States, USFL. I think there were others but I would have to look that up, my point being even though the NFL has been challenged the most, none of them ever really work in the long run. From all accounts, at that time if I remember correctly (Which is a big if, my memory is not what it used to be) I think they were on the verge of bankruptcy. That terrible contract that Bret Hart signed did not help matters which is why Vince let him sign with WCW. Though you are absolutely right the Rock and Austin did bring it back. It always annoyed me when Vince would do those videos where he would say with anger, I am paraphrasing here, in regards to WCW, "They tried to put me out of business!" This is coming from the same guy who ten years prior to that, sang a song on an album about putting his competitors out of business. Sorry, Vince, I would have had no sympathy for you if you had ended up going out of business.

I am the same way in regards to playing the Knights of the Old Republic games. I always struggled to play as a Darkside character. It always felt odd to me because it is only a video game but yeah I just never really liked playing on the Darkside in those games. I would usually do one playthrough just to see what it is like but I just never really enjoyed it. The odd thing is I had no problem playing the bad guy in GTA or any of the Elder Scroll games. I am not sure why that is the case.

I love how the NBA is being held up as this bastion of social justice. Yet they are in bed with China, where real actual oppression is happening. So phony.

I played a little Oblivion last year. They have that one Dark Brotherhood mission in the game that I love. It was based on Agatha Christie's 10 Little Indians and it might be one of my favorite missions in any video game I have played (Well there are a few GTA V missions that might be on par with it.). I tried playing Morrowind (I have the original XBOX version) a few months ago on my XBOX One, but I couldn't get far. Obviously the graphics are really dated (Which normally would not annoy me, but it did for this game.) and the game mechanics are terrible. It sucks because I never really got far into the game back then and I never went back to it and now it is unplayable for me. Though my KOTR I and II still stand the test of time no matter what system I play them on. What you said makes a lot of sense. I never really thought of it that way. Hell I did not even know the guy's name until a couple of days ago. I remember him bitching about people drinking, I just never even bothered to learn his name because I never had much interaction with him in previous playthroughs. Yeah I read on the Skyrim wiki that ghosts can hire thugs. What the hell?

That Sandman promo and match were just excellent. My only real complaint was the Jimmy Snuka promo, there is no way that is a Snuka promo because I actually understood what he was saying and he did not say brother every other word. Maybe he was not on the coke that night. Seriously though, it was a highly enjoyable show. The match write-ups were not too long and were well written and the promos were great. Keep up the good work!

Dana Stubblefield, what the hell? I am not sure why I did not hear of this case before but damn, what a sick person.

<p>I have been playing Skyrim a lot recently and I had thugs sent after me. I killed all of the thugs and read the note to see who was it that sent them after me. It was someone named Marmal. </p><p> </p><p> Now I have been playing this game off and on for nine years now and I had no clue who the hell Marmal was/is. I looked him up on the internet and he's a priest at the temple in Riften. What kind of a priest is this dude? </p><p> </p><p> Yes, I did steal from the temple, but nobody saw me do it. You are going to tell me that a priest who did not witness me steal anything is going to hire some thugs to kill me. That is just messed up.<img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/biggrin.png.929299b4c121f473b0026f3d6e74d189.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p>

I was just reading an article about Chris Jericho being in Kevin Smith's new horror movie. The article made me laugh because it had Jericho listed as a former wrestler. I guess that shows how mainstream AEW is and how much brand awareness they have with normies.

Don't get me wrong, I am not offended that he is there. I mean he was there in real life and all. I have played video games with Genghis Khan in it, history is history there is nothing we can do to change it. I just personally will not pick him to win.

The exact same thing happened with the old Mafia section and the Off-Topic section as well. That happened a few months ago. There were years and years worth of games gone. If it is a cost-cutting thing on GDS' part I can understand. It sucks but it is understandable.

Hmm, that's odd. I did not even notice the missing diaries. I lost a few (my two long running ones). Oddly enough my post count doesn't seem to have gone down. I mean I really do not know exactly how many posts I've made but I know the ballpark figure and it has not changed.

<p><strong>SHANE DOUGLAS </strong>VS. TERRY FUNK</p><p> </p><p> I really want to go with Terry here, but I just cannot.</p><p> </p><p><strong> PUBLIC ENEMY</strong> VS. TOO COLD SCORPIO & RON SIMMONS</p><p> </p><p> Too Cold Scorpio and Ron Simmons are an awesome team, very few could compare to Too Cold during his days in WCW and ECW (Let's just forget Flash Funk). Ron was just awesome as a singles wrestler or as a tag team wrestler in Doom and the APA. With all that being said, as much as I want Two Gold Scorpio, to me, he and Ron are singles wrestlers and therefore I think they'll fall short.</p><p> </p><p> MATT BORNE & CHRIS BENOIT VS. <strong>TOMMY DREAMER & CACTUS JACK</strong></p><p> </p><p> I will never pick Benoit to win.</p><p> </p><p> <strong>JIMMY SNUKA, TAZMANIAC & SABU </strong>VS. DEAN MALENKO & THE PITBULLS</p><p> </p><p><strong> MIKEY WHIPWRECK</strong> VS. MR. HUGHES</p><p> </p><p> <strong>SANDMAN</strong> VS. STEVIE RICHARDS</p>

I have really enjoyed what you are doing thus far. I tend to not read Real World diaries because I have very little interest in the current industry. But when someone goes to the past I am all about that.</p>

A few weeks ago I was going through some old stuff and I came across a bunch of old wrestling programs. One of them was from an ECW show in Massachusetts that I went to. It must have been right after Shane Douglas broke Gary Wolfe's neck because that was the big topic in the program, for lack of a better term it was more of a newsletter. I remember initially I had bad seats for the show that I bought the program at and ECW management ended up giving everyone ringside seats because nearly the entire crowd had bought cheap seats. Anyway, I did not want ringside seats because I knew the wrestlers sometimes ended up in the crowd and I did not want to deal with that, but I did not really have a choice in the matter because they were not allowing anyone to sit in the cheap seats. I mean it makes sense because even though it was a house show they still filmed it to show clips and it would look terrible on television to have a sparse crowd at ringside and have nearly the entire upper balcony sold out. I also came across a bunch of old ROH "programs" as well, once again for lack of a better term it was just a sheet of paper listing the matches.

Nothing weird about that at all. On a scale of 1 to 10 on the oddness scale for comments on this site, I would say that does not even register. There was once someone on here who defended drunk drivers, so yeah wanting to see facial reactions of podcasters is not odd at all.

Cappy, there really is no difference between a Podcast and an AM radio talk show. As Dalton said most are audio-only and the ones that have video are boring because it is just watching a bunch of people sit around and talk. I don't know if you ever watched Imus or Howard Stern on television before (When they were both on television) but a video version of a Podcast would be exactly like that.

<p>I don't really listen to Podcast but I do listen to segments of Podcasts on YouTube. So if that counts, here are the three I tend to listen/watch on a semi-regular basis. I also do not know the actual names of the Podcasts so I will just go by what I know them as...</p><p> </p><p> Joe Rogan </p><p> Tim Pool</p><p> Jim Cornette</p><p> </p><p> I was going to at one-time set-up a thread like this for YouTube channels to see what channels others watched. There does seem to be a little bit of an overlap between the two things.</p>

I believe it was a stand-alone, but to be honest with you, I have not played it since it came out so I really do not recall much about it. I remember there was one section that annoyed the hell out of me because I kept on getting killed because of the whole button smasher thing, but that is about it. I think I was killed twenty times in a row before I finally did it right.

Lucky Chance Fatal-4-Way Nighthawk (2-Wins) vs Tyrant vs Lone Shark vs Whirlwind Lee Wilkes I sadly do not see him winning three in a row. Even his awesomisitoy has its limits. APW Tag-Team Championship Match Samoan Demolition vs Fox & Possum vs The Duo vs The Apocalypse 10-Minute Challenge (If Lucas lasts 10 minutes he earns himself an APW Contract) Leon Nameth vs Lucas I like christmas_ape's line of thinking, but I am just going to go with the more clear cut answer and have him just win outright. Monday Next Open Challenge Monday Next & ???? vs ???? & ???? APW Commonwealth Number One Contender Match Alyx Macquarie vs Massacre vs Christopher Gerard vs Scottie Hamstead Bonus Points: Which two heels form a one off tag-team to accept Monday Next's challenge? Reggie Tate and Lothar Prellinger I think having Lothar in this match makes sense for my next pick... Which face joins up with Monday Next? Dingo Devine
