Thursday night, huh? Where da party at?
ReplyDeletePeople still going at it in the Mike Johnson/TNA thread.
ReplyDeleteOK guys, should I be worried about the review embargo for a The Evil Within? I have the game pre-ordered for PS3 but I guess I can always switch it to something else if I hear nothing but bad things after the weekend. I still haven't played The Last of Us yet.
ReplyDeleteNow iz the time on BoD ven ve danze.
ReplyDeleteOh boy, about what?
ReplyDeleteHowdy all!
ReplyDeleteIt's weird when disqus via gmail notifies you that someone is responding to you in a weeks old dead thread. And its even weirder when they're trolling you.
ReplyDeleteSome guy called me a "mark" for saying wrestling is art. Lol
Good grief. Nothing gets the blood boiling here more than the Dirt Sheetz, huh?
ReplyDeleteSHEETZ WARZ
ReplyDeleteI propose a new gimmick for Randy Orton: The Viper. He comes to vipe and vash your vindows.
ReplyDeleteI checked my notifications near the top of the comment section and saw that I got an upvote from something I posted a year ago
ReplyDeleteGI JOOOOOOOOOOOOE
ReplyDeleteReview embargo?
ReplyDeleteIn my pants.
ReplyDeleteAnd toilet paper is invited.
B/c there's a lot of poop.
There's a good old fashioned sheet war between pwi and won, or at least pwi taking super cheap shots.
ReplyDeleteMike Johnson criticized DM for reporting about the punk/TNA thing. He called TNA and they denied it, and then stole a story from another website about punk at the ovw show. Meltzer no sold it all.
Not letting any official review be published till release date.
ReplyDeleteShoot Interview poll is up
ReplyDeletehttp://vote.pollcode.com/11716941
AJ!
ReplyDeleteThat's not usually a good sign, although they may just be overly-cautious.
ReplyDeleteBayless, any news about NJPW on uStream? I think the service ended, but I really wanted to order KOPW in a couple days.
ReplyDeleteFrom what I've seen the game seems pretty good though.
ReplyDeleteThey're the mark!
ReplyDeleteWhen a studio does that with a movie, it's because they know it's shit.
ReplyDeleteWhat did they do, have them sign a contract that they'll allow them to play the game in exchange for no early reviews?
ReplyDeleteDon't know.
ReplyDeleteYeah, but you can't know how a game plays just by looking at it.
ReplyDeleteMayhem Miller got arrested after a strange standoff today. He was live Tweeting during it lol
ReplyDeleteFairly standard operating procedure for creative stuff, games, movies, books, etc....usually if everyone loves it, they don't bitch if you break and post early....everyone hates it? Fort Knox
ReplyDeleteNah. The game is going to be awesome.
ReplyDeleteRight now you can play the game legally so the non official reviews should be pouring in tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteThe risk of losing access to future items is what keeps those embargoes from being breached.
ReplyDeleteI was just trying to figure out how what they'd do if they got a bad review, so breaching a contract is what I figured.
ReplyDeleteMeltzer wrote in the Observer how on the New Japan UStream page, it said that the service was done but gave an indication to check on New Japan's US page for info on how to watch the 10/13 Sumo Hall show but when you went to the US page, there was no info. He then said that some people have figured out how to order it on the Japan iPPV provider, Nicocino, but that he was personally unaware on how to do that.
ReplyDeleteI like how one of the biggest proponents of kayfabe in real life is named Mark.
ReplyDelete('Taker, not Madden)
Voted, I lol'ed at the fact that no one picked Morgan.
ReplyDeleteEvening.
ReplyDeleteJust like teh sexy times
ReplyDeleteOr so I've heard
Well here's the Letterman Hatsune Miku thing I mentioned yesterday
ReplyDeletehttps://youtube.com/watch?v=qA5pIpdQEr0
LOVED Dave's expression and comments at the end.
Oh joy....
ReplyDelete:goes to watch anyway:
I started watching unforgiven 06 last night. Stopped off at the Highlanders vs Spirit Squad match. I think I'll pick it back up tonight.
ReplyDeleteJobber, hows 2K15 so far?
ReplyDeleteI was suprised that Hardy vs Morrison wasn't that great. That was all on jomo too. Hardy was selling like a pro and looked real sharp but Morrison couldn't call the match and lay it out.
ReplyDeleteWatching AHS. Hopefully it was better than last season.
ReplyDeleteIt kinda pisses me off for some things. Wouldn't have killed him to break character for Bearer. At this point he better take it to the grave and not break for HOF either
ReplyDeleteLove it. I'm basically only playing the association mode so far but its way better than last year. Also you can unlock all the historic teams by just normally playing. You don't need to do any challenges or whatever and theres tons of them. I unlocked the mark price cavs for instance. Still haven't checked out the my team mode where you're the star player.
ReplyDeleteThanks. I'm gonna have to look into the Nicocino site. Can't miss the show!
ReplyDeleteWatching IND at HOU, MTL at WAS for hockey, and going to catch a bit of the USA soccer friendly later on.
ReplyDelete"It's like being on Willie Nelson's bus..."
ReplyDeleteLol.
Yo yo yo
ReplyDeleteI thought it was good until the last 3 or 4 EPs. But I hates the finale and that shoe horned witches/ gay people comparison. I'm gonna let my DVR build it up a bit.
ReplyDeleteCavs wearing blue during the home opener this year.
ReplyDeleteAh ha.. What a story Mark.
ReplyDeletePop a 40 and check your rollies.
ReplyDeleteIt's Cryme Tyme....BROOKLYN!
ReplyDelete3-0 NJ with 14:00 left in the 2nd. The grumpy old men roster isn't doing too badly, lol. Get off the Devils' lawn!
ReplyDeleteI wonder if they have a metal bucket on the bench that they spit in.
ReplyDeleteI love Canadian wrestling crowds. They completely shit all over the Kane vs Umanga non finish.
ReplyDeleteBringing the hood to you...
ReplyDeleteAnyone sign up for the $10 in cash or $15 in Red Bull products?
ReplyDeleteI'm a fan. LeBron must really like blue.
ReplyDeleteJadaveon Clowney has been all but forgotten about. That's probably a bad sign
ReplyDeleteHow long is he out for?
ReplyDeleteHey WWF1987, you still playing KH 2?
ReplyDelete6 weeks. It's strange cause no one is even asking when he'll be back. Like the Texans don't even care.
ReplyDeleteI'm about 2 1/2 hours into Silent Hill 2. It's only 8 hours long I think so I'm finishing that up first before I conquer KH 2.
ReplyDeleteOk, I was just wondering if you heard of this KH cover band called Project Destati.
ReplyDeletebeen wanting to know so I figure I'll ask. What's a friendly?
ReplyDeleteYO DEVIN
ReplyDeleteIf you need me, I'll be down at Jake's
Ok, I'm going out with Robert tonight
ReplyDeleteIt's an international match outside the confines of a formal FIFA competition.
ReplyDeleteWell, he made us feel that way when he left.
ReplyDeleteUSA vs England in the World Cup: NOT a friendly
ReplyDeleteUSA vs England in April, in a random match: Friendly.
Well, it is almost Halloween
ReplyDeleteso how does soccer work exactly? You know how we have MLB and NFL that makes the schedule and you play for the championship etc., does soccer do that? It just seems teams just play each other.
ReplyDeleteDid they do many Halloween shows? I don't remember then doing that many.
ReplyDeleteNot sure.
ReplyDeleteJust hope Rudy doesn't mess up the message again and then insist on joining in the dance
It could be worse. You could be stuck dancing with that old lady like Bud was.
ReplyDeleteNope. Any good?
ReplyDeleteI wonder what his brother says about that
ReplyDeleteWell that's just super.
ReplyDeleteThat looks awesome.
ReplyDeleteNice, congrats on the new job.
ReplyDeleteWHERE MY DOGS AT, WHERE DEY AT?
ReplyDeleteThey're in the enclosed pool area?
Well shit.
I REMEMBER HALLOWEEN OH OH!
ReplyDeleteAmerican Dragon
ReplyDelete...going to hell...reference that or laugh at other's referencing that way more than I should
ReplyDeleteIssue being, the full amount was capped at $13million dollars... so hypothetically, if 13 million people filed claims... you'd each get $1 or $1.50 in Red Bull products.
ReplyDeleteNoooooooooooooooooooooo!
ReplyDeleteCBS must love watching an onside kick this early in games that have been pro/hs level scrimmages of competition
ReplyDeleteIt's been 7 years. That's the statute of limitations in wrestling
ReplyDeleteI'm pretty sure I've paid the medical school tuition of the Red Bull promo girls in downtown Rochester. Hopefully to eventually find the cure for what will be wrong with me for drinking Red Bull every single day. #circleoflife
ReplyDeleteYou gotta check them out, of course they have scores from all the games, but man it's worth it. They take scores that you hear from the KH games and transform them in such a way that some sound better than the game versions. They are on iTunes right now.
ReplyDeleteTY HIlton with the most garbage touchdown of the season thus far!
ReplyDeleteColts will win by at least 30.
ReplyDeletewhat's the score?
ReplyDeleteGOTCHA LAST!
ReplyDelete10-0 but this TD is getting called back. Indy is all over them, scored on the first drive, kicker recovered his own onside kick, and they're already down on the 3.
ReplyDeleteColts just scored a TD, but it's being reviewed and probably called back to the 2 yard line so it'll stay 3-0 Colts.
ReplyDeleteOh Texans.......why do you break my heart?
ReplyDeleteSoccer usually falls into two main levels of competition:
ReplyDeleteInternational: National teams play each other in World Cup Qualifiers set by region (NA, SA, Europe, Africa, Asia, Oceania). The top 32 teams to come out of those regions then go on to the World Cup Finals, which was the big tournament in Brazil this summer.
National teams also play friendlies against each other outside the qualifying, basically to gel the team, try new players and tactics, and keep the players in shape.
"National" : Many countries (England, Spain, France, Germany, Netherlands, Brazil, Argentina, USA, Mexico etc...) have their own domestic leagues also.
Other than the US, every one has multiple tiers (think baseball's minor leagues, but without the MLB teams able to "run" their own systems, EVERY team being independently run.) Between these tiers, there is a promotion and relegation system that triggers yearly, dropping the bottom 2-4 teams down a league and promoting the top 2-4 teams up a league.
I'll stop here, just feel free to ask for details on anything interesting/confusing.
Time to get Elton John and Kiki Dee on the case
ReplyDeleteIf you and a baker's dozen other weak dudes show up in a field... it's soccer.
ReplyDeleteMakes sense but this seems like a lot of soccer teams. so exactly how many teams are there? ballpark
ReplyDeleteVery nice. Also, YOU'RE GOING DOWN, SUCKA!
ReplyDelete:)
3-3 after 40. What a chokejob, Devils, fuuuuuck. lol
ReplyDeleteAhh, the modern NFL....running from 4 wide inside the five. The league became Madden so gradually I hardly noticed
ReplyDeleteHighest percentage of runs at the goal line is only 68%... and that's Seattle with Beast Mode.
ReplyDeleteYep, just lamenting smash mouth (n. band) football of old
ReplyDeleteI wonder how hard Dracula will bomb. I'd swear they're on their 3rd or 4th different campaign to sell it
ReplyDeletebelichick needs to bring the whole band back together for one last run. Romeo, Weiss
ReplyDeleteThat's sick. Ohh I need to get the Bad Boys, hope I can play as them.
ReplyDeleteIt's crazy. Passing yards are out of control, and the days of a one back team are long gone. It's a two back league now.
ReplyDeleteEngland supports TWENTY FOUR (holy fuck) levels of soccer, with thousands of teams. However, the vast majority of those are amateur, with teams and players on the level of your local rec league.
ReplyDeleteAs for their "majors", I'd call their top four levels "major", with 20 (Premier League), 24 (Championship), 24 (League 1), and 24 (League 2) teams in them.
What's one film that you could watch every single day for the rest of your life if you had to? I'd go with The Shining.
ReplyDeleteNow I'm wondering why Crennel never went back. Weiss, I understand. He sold himself pretty well for a while, but if Romeo was gonna d-coordinate why not get his old gig back?
ReplyDeleteYep, which seems even odder when you consider teams rush less now than ever. "Back in my day" backs would get 30+ carries
ReplyDeleteHC aspirations so fart around in places a good showing could let you jump up? Though it'd be just as easy rebuilding Pats d and leaving if that was only it
ReplyDeleteUS equivalent would be the NBA not only keeping records of it's own league and the D-League, but also the NCAA and any small rec league that could fulfill some very basic requirements. (Court, balls, goals, and uniforms pretty much.)
ReplyDeleteExactly. There wasn't a game where Thurman Thomas didn't get at least 20 carries a game, and he'd last the whole year, every year, at the top of the stat charts. I'm not making light of the concussion work the NFL has done to prevent, but guys used to be tougher 20 years ago. Where's Iron Head Craig Heyward? Where's Christian Okoye the Nigerian Nightmare?
ReplyDeleteShawshank, thanks to tnt/amc/dvds, probably have seen it 75+ times
ReplyDeletemakes sense. After two epic failings we know that's done. Dude I forgot that Weiss chilled at Florida for a year. Then convinced Kansas he knew what he was doing.
ReplyDeleteSwell...another Thursday night shitkicking in progress.
ReplyDeleteI end up watching the Godfather every time AMC shows it. Spent a whole Sunday watching 1 and 2 one day when I was supposed to be doing stuff.
ReplyDeleteOther countries:
ReplyDeleteGermany: Bundesliga (18 teams), 2.Bundesliga (18 teams), 3.Liga (20 teams), then semi-pro leagues.
France: Ligue 1 (20 teams), Ligue 2 (20 teams), Championnat National (18 teams), amateur leagues.
and so on...
The Shining is a tough sell. It's great and it's fun to look at scenes different each time... but it's pretty long and drawn out.
ReplyDeleteIs the play actually better being all under one roof?
ReplyDeleteInternationally, 203 national teams attempted to qualify for the 2014 World Cup, with 32 making it to the Finals in Brazil.
ReplyDeleteLol email from the wwe...
ReplyDelete"Come back to the WWE Network - only $9.99. Don't miss Hell in a Cell."
It's more "formal", yes. But "better"... It's all in the talent, much like any other sports league.
ReplyDeleteGood for Bradshaw, tough little sob
ReplyDeleteGoodfellas
ReplyDeleteNeckbeard running train on this Houston defense.
ReplyDeleteFriday, Liar Liar, the original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Aladdin, Rush Hour 2 ... At various times when I didn't have cable/TV, I was watching these every single day.
ReplyDeleteVengeance 2006. Worth a shot I guess.
ReplyDeleteMeekin?
ReplyDeleteWhy in the blue fuck would MLB allow Fox to put their playoff games on Fox Sports 1?
ReplyDeleteGood choicel
ReplyDeleteTodd Gurley is lost for the season over 400 bucks. It'd have to be at least 5 figures to make it worth my while to do anything that jeopardizes my season.
ReplyDeleteTeams aren't using 2-back or RB-by-committee systems to protect players from concussions. They're doing it because it's cheaper and more efficient to pay 2-4 RBs decent money than paying one star RB a ton of money.
ReplyDelete(Semi-lapsed NFLer)Where'd Houston's old QB end up? The ex-Falcon?
ReplyDeleteI got that too
ReplyDeleteshaub?
ReplyDeletePlus, I think teams are realizing that the RB position is deeper than it used to be. Arian Foster was undrafted and is an elite back. Every other week there's a second or third string guy that busts out a great game.
ReplyDeleteYeah
ReplyDeleteOakland to get benched for David Carr's little brother.
ReplyDeletedon't know but wherever he is he's probably stinking it up there also
ReplyDeleteGeorgia backs have some issues. Isn't that where Crowell was originally at?
ReplyDeleteI'm sad he isn't a starter any more... only for the fact that I can no longer name my fantasy team Corn on the Schaub.
ReplyDeleteKurt Angle mashup theme. Ew.
ReplyDeleteWouldn't you think that after AJ Green, Georgia would learn or have something in place?
ReplyDeleteRaiders.
ReplyDeleteHuh, thanks
ReplyDeleteRaiders backup.
ReplyDeleteHe's in Oakland
ReplyDeleteDidn't/not renewing I take it?
ReplyDeleteYeah, they have guys suspended all the time. A.J. Green almost lost his last season over the same crap.
ReplyDeleteHis fall from grace was the most dramatic I can remember for an NFL QB. I hate the term, but he was borderline elite starting last season... but six straight games with a pick 6 to start the year crushed him for good.
ReplyDeleteAKA Delhomming
ReplyDeleteTURN DOWN FOR WATT?!
ReplyDeleteafter all this time I think they are immune to it. Richt knows he's going to lose 3 guys every year. It's probably a recruiting pitch. Hey kid you'll play early, cause the guy starting will probably get kicked of the team
ReplyDeleteSolomon Wilcotts just tweeted, "Andrew Luck doesn't need a whole lot of luck when the Texans give up plays like that." Boooo.....
ReplyDeleteI hate taking pleasure in someone else's pain but it was so much fun watching that trainwreck.
ReplyDeleteI think TY Hilton has 125 yards receiving already
ReplyDeleteYou'd think Texans were up the way they're blowing Watt
ReplyDelete140 lol nevermind
ReplyDeleteGame 1 of the NLCS is on FOX Saturday Night (when they have nothing on anyway) but then the next several games are back on FS1. I'm sure it's because of their fall TV schedule coinciding with the opportunity to pimp their shitty new network.
ReplyDeleteLol and to continue the trend of Thursday night blowouts. Colts bout to make this 24-0
ReplyDeleteCant believe Vegas only had this at Colts - 2 1/2. I GLADLY took advantage
Selig stopped trying a long time ago. He's reached Weekend at Bernie's level of comatososity
ReplyDeleteHalf the country doesn't fucking get it on basic cable....the last game drew a 1.8...a rerun of Family Guy drew a 2.2 lol
ReplyDeleteLuck is gonna break every passing record.
ReplyDeleteFOX has exclusivity right, I guess and can air it on whatever channel they like.
ReplyDeleteThe guy is a stud.
ReplyDeleteSchaubenfreude: taking extreme pleasure in the failures of Matt Schaub
ReplyDeleteIf I was baseball, I'd bitch up a storm...they still got paid, but still.
ReplyDeleteMe too. I didn't see a blow out like this, though.
ReplyDeleteHe is. I didnt fully buy into the hype when he was in college, but he is the real deal. Props to Colts making the decision on dropping Peyton and grabbing this kid.
ReplyDeleteWilcotts is the absolute worst. We get all the Bills games in Western NY, and he's calling most of them. Sounds like he's saying Buffalo Beews.
ReplyDeleteIt pisses me off that the Colts and their shithead father/son owner tandem stumbled into once in a generation QBs not once, but twice.
ReplyDeleteI didnt either. I was thinking a low-ish scoring 21-13 game myself
ReplyDelete2 of my fantasy teams had TY Hilton. 1 of my opponents has Luck. I don't start Hilton against him.
ReplyDeleteI fucking suck.
THIS! That Sunday night game was the apex. Dude looked so defeated after that but they still didn't want to bench him. Was that also the heart attack week?
ReplyDeleteIt's going off my expired card. I just don't care enough about them anymore to renew it.
ReplyDeleteWe can still hope that Luck pulls a RG3.
ReplyDeleteTried Tinder and got a match and then a message that the girl "Is new here" and gave me her number to meet up. That'd be awesome if it was legit but I'm quite hesitant to think it actually is lol.
ReplyDeleteget her to text you a picture. If she does then you kinda know it's legit.
ReplyDeleteThat might still carry over. Expired cards often are approved with a recurring billing.
ReplyDeleteThese games are really awful.
ReplyDeleteSpoon picture.
ReplyDeleteWhat a stupid referee.
ReplyDeleteHe was benched by that point for Case Keenum.
ReplyDeleteSpent my afternoon speaking with an engineer who feels that even though his shoddy design is largely responsible for 2000 dead pigs, and a 600K+ loss to my company, raising his premium from 8,000 to 11,000 is somehow screwing him.
ReplyDeleteMake sure she's holding today's newspaper.
ReplyDeleteGood evening all.
ReplyDeleteGood grief...Thursday night football is the drizzling shits.
ReplyDeleteLooked up the number and it linked to a scam. Lol.
ReplyDeleteI'm loving it. I've been on the right side of all these blow outs.
ReplyDeleteKind of a stupid question, but where did the whole Vince being 10 years behind on everything joke start, was it when the Heidenrich/Cole incident happened and they said they got it from Pulp Fiction?
ReplyDeleteI thought this would be a good matchup too.
ReplyDeleteLets see whats coming up in thursdays
Jets@Pats (blowout)
SD@DEN (not bad)
Saints@Panthers (not bad)
With the bookie?
ReplyDeleteEvening Jef.
ReplyDelete:top 3 handshake:
