  2. Ahh yes, but a diabolical genius! He fulfilled his end of the bargain, and did it dastardly. Which means by December, we'll see Cena in a leather chair, petting a black cat with a black glove, and talking in a low, creepy British accent. "No Mr. Orton, I expect you to di ... oh, PG ... I expect you to lose. Muahahahahaha!"
  3. Oh man, I was really starting to dig Justin Gabriel. Shame he's gonna be fired now. `cause Orton can't roll properly. I saw that miscue, and awkward collision, and my first thought was Mr. Kennedy. Granted, it's a severe stretch, but it saddens me that a panic light goes off everytime Orton has a bad moment. lol
  4. Yeah, he has a tendency to overthink the defense in front of him. The difference between him and Peyton is Peyton sees what he has, adapts, calls the play and snaps the ball. Eli ponders if he's doing the right thing while calling, which slows him down. It tends to happen when he's rattled, though, from what I've seen. He takes a few licks, and he worries too much about who's gonna light him up next, which is more human nature than anything. lol Will say though, his athletism kept him alive, `cause our (yes, I'm one of those "part of the team" people. lol) O-line is horrendous. We went from a dominating wall to a gap filled dam. And against Mathis and Freeney, they did Eli no favors.
  5. I'm not mad at Eli. Man's trying his hardest with 1.9 seconds to throw the ball. The most dominant offensive line in the past 5 years has just become ... offensive. lol
  6. Not boo, yay! Hop on board a winning bandwagon ... so long as you ignore tonight's game.
  7. Think I'm gonna have to turn off the Giants game. Spent a week watching commercials about the Manning Bowl, only to realize that no one told the Giants to show up! Who's good in Canada?
  8. Was a great show. There's like 6 episodes, of which I caught 4, I think. One had Drew Carrey which I missed, and that irks me a little. And one had Jonathan Winters, who is still sharp after all these years. But the Penn Jillette one was the best, if only because the trio took the time to tell a single joke a piece, all of which were hilarious. I just worry that the conformity is the final deathnail. Since the change, there's less woo-woo's, and I don't feel I know it as much. And it saddens me some.
  9. I've heard about it, but yet to see it. I need to find that. Just went to look it up, I didn't realize the vast amount of talent that had been resourced for that film. Definitely need to find it now. If I'm not mistaken, Paul Provenza also hosts The Green Room, which is just a half hour show of comics shooting the breeze. There's an episode with Penn which is hilarious. It's him, Tommy Smothers, and Martin Mull I believe. If you can find that, I think you'll enjoy it. And not to derail this too far ... short pants Zack Ryder, legitimate title contender, or conformed cry for help? Discuss.
  10. I worship at the altar that is Penn & Teller. Those two make anything great. I watched Shaq Vs. to see them. lol I even picked up Showtime to watch their critically acclaimed Bull ... hockey! Great show, by the by. I kind of hope they're given some time to do stuff, while still being themselves. Even if it's "simple" tricks, they do it with such flair, it'll probably be better than the rest of the show. lol
  11. That I understand, and this is merely a layman's point of view from the outside. And I tend to be a moron, so it's rarely a smart point of view. lol What I meant was, with the mindset that the greater female market was an untapped resource, plus the leanings towards younger viewers (90210 and Gossip Girl), that if Reaper was axed simply because it didn't fit that general direction, it baffled me. And you mentioning ABC is why I was baffled. Although they draw strong with Housewives and such, there's a strong variety, while CW seemed to be restricting towards the same basic target. And like I said, I was under the impression the show did a strong rating, with the limitations the network faces, when poised against an ABC or a CBS. If it was just myself, Gator, BHK, and 3 guys in a dorm room in Iowa, then everything present in my confusion is moot. But like I said, I'm a moron. If I ran a network, it'd very much mirror PTV. lol
  12. Nice! I should've gotten a gig in television. I spend enough time worshipping it, it'd have been nice to be paid to do so. lol I never understood Reaper's dismissal. I thought it had a good rating, considering the limited market that the CW has. And the notion that it was trying to be a more female based network never made sense, since they show Smallville. Unless it was purely economic. And when no one else picked it up, I cried a little. Cried more when I read the wrap up that the creators did in an interview. Genius storyline, wish I'd gotten to see it play out. JGMYSRALTLOAABYF! [That's Jeez GruntMark, you should relax, and let the letters of an acroynm be your friend. Since it was point specific, though, I probably won't use it again. ]
  13. Yeah, but it would've been rude to not express my thinking by shaving 4 letters off his username. Silly!
  14. A-ha, so you're the one who took Reaper away from me! *forms a mob to rush the castle with pitchforks and torches!* You work for an affiliate, or the main umbrella, Sten? [Forgive me, I'm lazy, and shorten most all names. lol]
  15. The aftermath. The build up is great. With the whole viper persona, when he's down on the mat, thumping his fists, before that quickstrike RKO, it's genius. It's a cobra snap. Then he rolls into a pin, gets up, and starts ... dancing like the Jackson 5 is stuck in his head. And all that work goes for naught, `cause he looks doofy. lol I guess. Or it's the "viper slither" like Slag said ... it's just so difficult to take Michael Cole seriously. Ever, really. But when he calls Randy the Apex Predator, while the man is doing an awkward version of the Truffle Shuffle. (Now I'm just curious as to how many awkward comparisons to Orton's shimmy-shake I can make. lol)
  16. I'm not a big fan of the flurry of finishes, but what's the deal with Orton looking like he's getting tazed in the tookus everytime he drops someone? Maybe it's just me, but he seems less dangerous with that weirdo twitch thing going on.
  17. Ha ha, take that, interest in season 3 of NXT! I'm perplexed by this recent development, as I don't see any benefit from taking the "fascinating" diva out of the lineup. If this is a storyline, that is.
  18. Might overshoot with the Delorean, and end up taking my mother to a school dance ... whereas the police box affords me trippy colors. I've made my choice. lol The closest I ever got was an ECW event in Poughkeepsie, NY, where I told Dawn Marie I loved her, and Justin Credible almost hit me. Good times!
  19. The announcers are Byron Saxon (former sidekick to Josh Matthews on ECW) and Abraham Washington!
  20. 2 South Africans. FCW has a guy named Leo Kruger (better known as Ray Leppan). I only know this because FCW made a huge deal about how he'd followed Gabriel from South Africa to prove he was the one worthy of making it to the `E. That's true, and it's even weirder in person. I don't get to go often, but when I did go, it was bizarre. I can't really compare it to a huge event, since I've never been, but there's something unsettling about listening to a guy in the ring (Johnny Prime) wonder aloud why no one was cheering for him to escape a submission hold. The match starts, people are ruckus, and soon after, it becomes very much like a Japanese wrestling event, where you sit quietly and wait. lol
  21. Is it wrong that the thing I enjoyed most was watching Otunga get tagged in, being beaten, and sent home? It wasn't a bad match, for the clu-fuffle of people involved. Little sad that Tarver was dispatched quickly, but have to agree that the Silverback and Slater looked good. Also in agreement about Super Cena. I was all right with it when he eliminated Gabriel (not happy, but all right) and to immediately take out Wade too? Personally, I would've ended it differently. Little displeased by the Orton/Sheamus ending. In theory, I understand it, with it opening the door for next month, and Cena being "at the back of the line", so Orton gets a rematch, but the DQ ending just seemed off. Also decided I need to find some way to mute Cole. I know people find Striker annoying, but my only problem with him is he's wishy-washy. When he's a heel commentator, he does it properly. He makes excuses, he finds loopholes to argue, and in the end, although you don't agree with it, you can sort of understand why he feels that way. I don't get that from Cole. If he had an excuse, a justification to have that muffled voice (`cause his lips are attached to Miz's butt!) I may feel different, but he just ... I dunno, irritates me. Where's Joey Styles, when I need him to slap somebody?
  22. D-Von Dudley vs. Big Dick Dudley Jr. It's the circle of life ... the wheels of fortune ... the leap of faith ... (I haven't the foggiest if those are the real words, or just what I thought sounded good. lol) Lioness Championship Match Jazz vs. Alexis Nate Hatred vs. Andrew Martin The Briscoe Brothers vs. Bubba Ray and "Banzai" Dudley Masters of Pain Qualifying Match Vito Thomaselli vs. AJ Styles Paul Burchill & Eddie Guerrero vs. Rhino & Chris Hero
  23. CM Punk vs. Yoshihiro Tajiri Lioness Pack Match Jazz & Kong vs. Alexis & Nathalie Bubba Ray Dudley vs. Big Dick Dudley Jr. Draw - no way this match becomes anything less than a clusterfuddle of Dudleys. "The Prototype" Andrew Martin vs. Rhino Paul Burchill & Vito Thomaselli vs .Monsters Inc. As we take one step closer to Vito becoming the heir apparent to Raven.
  24. Is it bad that I squealed like a little girl at a Justin Beiber concert when I saw this? (Or worse that I've just admitted that, or any knowledge of the teen sensation in public? ) Very awesome, Nevvy! I like the international company idea, and considering they're seen as the "tasteful" of the genre, I don't think the risk will be too bad. And think of the crossover appeal. Heff signs with E! Entertainment Television to start a new reality series called the Girls Next Door, and in the first scene, Kendra Wilkinson is seen, giggling like a buffoon, until Goliath emerges from the bushes, like the oft heard of, but rarely seen Bigfoot ... and steps on her! Crowd rejoices, fade to black. Or, ya know, something better. lol
