Wasnt up yet. The 1s look pretty weak.
Yay big guys hitting and tackling each other!!!
Some combination of Cardinals, Patriots, Denver tease is the way to go I think but I've been pretty up and down the past 2 weeks.

But enough about an Undertaker Kane match. Let's get to football.
ReplyDeleteRight now, my "dream" scenario is:
ReplyDeleteIndy loses out, somehow.
Tennessee goes 1-4/2-3, with one SPECIFIC loss
Jacksonville wins out, WINS the AFC South at 7-9.
The chance of it happening is .(metric fuckton of zeroes)1%... BUT IT'S A CHANCE, DAMNIT!
Thanks for putting it up. Slept late today. Also, thanks for Stranger in the Alps for putting up the Saturday Night Thread last night. I went to put it up on my phone at 9 but it was already up.
ReplyDeleteSo you guys know, the 1995 WWE Timeline with Kevin Nash won the vote by 49%. It will be up by Thursday.
I hate that Indy team. Think they're pretty useless
ReplyDeleteYAY! No murderous rampages from certain Nash fanatics... well, not more than usual at least.
ReplyDeleteSo with Meekin disappearing, I've been pimping this idea out...have BoD members rotate doing it on a weekly basis. The QOTD is such a broad idea that I think it'd be cool to have diverse topics, opinions, discussions, for it. It'd keep the idea fresh. Just have people volunteer to do it for a week, the switch to someone else. It'd cool to read a parallax week, vinson week, Pat Patterson prolpased week, Baker week, Beard money week, etc. When you run out of volunteers just recycle them or have 1 person take it over.
ReplyDeleteTerrible idea? Good idea?
Seems okay. Is Meekin officially gone or just busy?
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure. Haven't seen him since that Welker question that he took some criticism for. The consensus is he's gone, but I don't think anyone knows for sure.
ReplyDeleteThat was a weird QOTD choice
ReplyDeleteSure was. They've gotten weaker and weaker the last few weeks imo. Guess there are only so many before the well runs dry
ReplyDeletePeople are dropping like flies around here
ReplyDeleteI need to snap my two-game losing streak in Fuj's league and stay alive for a first-round bye. I MUST DEFEND MY TITLE
ReplyDeleteDon't pawn this off as your idea motherfucker we were talking about it in the thread last night! :: BOWS UP ::
ReplyDeleteTh QOTD's are slowly becoming something that a single person can't get a firm grip on.
ReplyDeleteMY TEAM FROM LOCAL COLLEGE WAS NOT VICTORIOUS OF THEIR RIVAL YESTERDAY BUT THEY PLAYED HARD! HOWEVER IN TODAYS EVENT THE SPECIFIC TEAM I SUPPORT WILL NOT ONLY EMERGE VICTORIOUS OVER THEIR SPECIFIC OPPOSITION THEY WILL DEFEAT THEM BY SUCH A LARGE AMOUNT OF POINTS THEY WILL DISBAND AS A TEAM IN DISGRACE AS WE LAUGH ND MAKE LOVE TO THEIR WIVES! AND THEIR FANS SUCK AND ARE FAT!
ReplyDeleteI knew you were Ryback.
ReplyDeleteThey always have been... like I have a hard time thinking of like 5 of them, I can't imagine doing it day in and day out
ReplyDeleteI am Chris Walker
ReplyDeleteIt was a great idea when Curry and I came up with it last night...
ReplyDelete:::Low Blow to the Nuts::: yea, i did think of it after seeing you and Curry talking about sharing it. Even geniuses need some inspiration at times!
ReplyDeleteThere are only so many qotd topics i think one person can explore, rotating it would keep it fresh and explore diverse interets i think.
Married women the world over will mourn a blow to my nuts
ReplyDeletewhile married men cheer!
ReplyDeleteNah, generally I get them on my side also. Hell I have even had one guy ask me to spend time with his wife because she is lonely and needs a friend. Stupid chump.
ReplyDeleteI JUST checked out the "community" tab that shows the top 20 posters after being alerted to it last night. Where has this been all my life?
ReplyDeleteA plurality and not a majority. Take that Nash you heightist motherfucker!
ReplyDeleteYou are now going to go on a rampage today to try and pass Flair4DaGold amirite? I assume it is because you want a good look at my ass. Homo. (Note: There is nothing wrong with that)
ReplyDeleteThey have slowly gotten worse IMO. I dont blame Meekin, he seems like a good writer who puts in the effort. I think it just needs a different voice and perpective to freshen it up. there are only so many quetions one person can pump out before the well runs dry.
ReplyDeleteWell, if the BoD would create some new stars instead of relying on the older ones, we wouldn't have this problem. *yuk yuk*
ReplyDeleteSomething about how it's hard for one person to do and that you could only think of five off the top of your head.
ReplyDeleteTop 5 or bust. Its bullshit because you and Vinson are such active posters that Fuj is the only one I can possibly catch, unless you or Vinson go on a sabbatical. I dont forsee this happening
ReplyDeleteYeah, that's why I like your idea of giving the job to someone different every week.
ReplyDeleteIs this a true story? Did you eventually sleep with her? Worst move EVER by him
ReplyDeleteI'm not going for anyone's spot, just want to at least be in the top 20.
ReplyDeleteRiverboat Ron strikes again!!!
ReplyDeleteNot new news but Brandon Weedon is soooo fucking bad. im convinced the Browns are trying to lose out to get a better draft pick at this point. Not that I dont advocate this, but Weedon should never start another nfl game ... EVER
ReplyDeleteThis is what Cleveland has put out since they came back. It's not like he's the worst ever.

Yea, thats a steaming pile of shit, infected with an STD, covered in vaginal blood. Of all the guys who have started a decent amount of games in 1 year, Weedon and Pederson are the worst IMO.
ReplyDeleteIm driving the Hoyer bandwagon
Side tangent: Simmons wrote that the Browns first round 2 years ago, the Weedon/Richardson round, might be the worst draft ever of a team with multiple high picks. Think hes right
ReplyDeleteAt this point I say stick a back in there and just run the wildcat. It can't be any worse than what they have.
ReplyDeleteI'd stick with Hoyer too cause there is no one to tank for this year, imo
At this point it's looking like it. The other contenders off the top of my head are The Redskins with Courtney Brown and LaVar Arrington, and The Colts with Quentin Coryatt and Trev Alberts.
ReplyDeleteI forgot about that Colts draft. I think that was the one the Colts GM killed Kiper after Kiper criticized him for not taking Dilfer, IIRC. Arringotn at least had a few decent year but overall that was a huge disappointment also.
ReplyDeleteThis is a true story... shit I often hung out with the three of them. To be fair this was early in my scumbaggery and I didn't go into it with this intention but as time went on stuff started to develop, I even resisted at first, but that seemed to make her want it more and eventually shit happened and we did it for several months before he caught on that she was sleeping with "someone".
ReplyDeleteI would seriously never suggest my wife go hang out with some dude no matter how much I trust either of them... stuff happens, people are human, and anyone can have a moment of weakness.
You've got some work to do...
ReplyDeleteIf you got two picks in the top five it seems really hard to screw that up. You have to at least get one of them right.
ReplyDeleteI remember that Kiper thing, It's not like Dilfer was the right answer either
I was in the same boat when it was top 4 instead of 5... I would have had to pass Fuj in order to crack the list because Vinson posts so often I am always 300 - 600 posts behind him.
ReplyDeleteAs for you, you are a B+ poster... like I can see you holding the BoD TV title or something but you aren't cut out to play with the big boys... I mean no one would even recognize you walking through the BoD airport.
Though if I were into Football I could probably catch Vinson
ReplyDeleteYea, with the value of nfl first rounders, its unexcusable to screw up 2 top 5 picks. Stuff like that sets franchises back 5+ years.
ReplyDeleteIf Lavarr and Venus kid isnt a future professinal athlete Ill lose faith in humanity. Kid hit the genetic lottery
Yea, sounds like she was gonna cheat either way with someone.
ReplyDeletecouldnt agree more with your last paragraph. People have needs, shit happens, people are human. Just a bad decision by him
The Eagles are KILLING me this year. I grew up in Philly and am a diehard but I cannot pick against them or on them correctly all year.
ReplyDeleteIm just biding my time, like HHH was doing in 97. Eventually Ill marry Scotts daughter and Ill take over the Blog. When I do, the only guys Ill push are the ones I work out with.
ReplyDeleteC-
ReplyDeleteNEVER COMPLIMENT A RIVAL.
I know.
ReplyDeleteSo who will be your Evolution?
ReplyDeleteBut I didn't! I was saying my specific sports team played hard!
ReplyDeleteYou said they won. Taunts should ignore stuff like that. Without the college part, it's a solid B/border B+.
ReplyDeleteI'll probably end up being the only person in the top 20 twice.
ReplyDeleteThis Jets game sucks.
ReplyDeleteBeing a Lions fan and having to cheer for the Vikings is painful
ReplyDelete:::still pondering:::
ReplyDeleteI like Hoyer a lot as a backup. There are some intriguing athletes in this draft. Right now Derek Carr from Fresno is mocking to Cleveland; I don't watch enough college to know if he's any good. I'd kinda like to see Johnny Football as a Brown just because Rob Chudzinski has already proven he can deal with a goof like Cameron Newton and get results.
ReplyDeleteI think if you have enough of a variety of contributors, you get a little bit more staying power for the feature, because none of us think the same way or find all the same stuff interesting. We all have our quirks. It's just a matter of finding the right rotation of individuals.
ReplyDeleteBut honestly, between the reviews, the open threads and the email questions, do we really NEED a QOTD? I think everyone started to feel like some of the threads were starting to get redundant (even though the QOTD usually helped me get through boring periods at work).
Honestly, I kind of figured the "What If" segments had replaced the QOTD already.
Yea, I hear ya. I still liked it because it was a non wrestling thread just to bullshit around it. It's definitely been around for around while tho so can see if it was growing a little stale
ReplyDeleteI think we can have the same effect with a daily open thread and just let the crazy bastards that populate the BoD run rampant in the comics section.
ReplyDeleteI'm still wishing for a weekly comics thread to discuss books every Wednesday (or there-abouts, since I never actually read my comics the day they come out anymore). With a daily open thread, there's the ability to talk about anything, without the stigma of a thread jack.
Well, Jacksonville won... but so did Indy and New England. And Carolina won, keeping the pressure on the Saints this Monday.
ReplyDeleteI see what you did there.
ReplyDeleteDon't look now, but the Vikings and Bears game is getting pretty awesome
ReplyDeleteMinnesota Tie Kings?
ReplyDeleteDamn near got another tie, but they won, thankfully
ReplyDeleteThat games gonna be fun
ReplyDeleteI shouldn't be surprised but it's amazing how in a matter of weeks the Jets looked like a that probably was going secure a Wild Card to now securing a top 5-10 Draft spot.
ReplyDeleteIf only Anderson panned out for them.
ReplyDeleteI'd like to see an Open Thread on the blog where anyone can talk about what the fuck they want.
ReplyDeleteJust got back from gym so missed some shit...did the Cardinals get some garbage time scores to cover???? Love it. Or did they have a chance to win?
ReplyDeleteLooking at the PbP: Arizona had one chance to tie/win, and only got 5 yards on 4 downs. Philly was "nice" (although you might disagree) in running out the clock (6 plays, 6 yards over the last two minutes starting at the Cardinal 15.)
ReplyDeleteThanks. Just read it also. I can't figure out how the cardinals didnt get the ball late if the kept holding g the eagles. Whatever tho, they covered.
ReplyDeleteSamuels was damn good for a long time with the Redskins. He certainly wasn't a bust.
ReplyDeleteI am not sure how comfortable Scott will be with that seeing as she is what like 3 or something?
ReplyDeleteI have wondered why the Saturday evening thread has to be just Saturday's... like why not have a daily thread?
ReplyDeleteI also say again it is a shame the message board idea didn't work as it would solve most of these issues.
I disagree that she would cheat either way... she just couldn't this.
ReplyDelete:: Does THE CRAB pose ::
why didn't it work? How do people really mess that up?
ReplyDeletePersonally I didn't like the format... and I don't think it used disqus login... its still up there beneath the banner, check it out.
ReplyDeleteCaliber started one off site that was ok, but he didn't really want to drive people away from here to go to it so it didn't last long either.
Ugh, yea that format/interface is not good.
ReplyDeleteYeah but apparently there aren't many options for messageboards with Disqus... and Scoot understandably didn't want something hosted off site that he couldn't monetize so it just kind of fizzled out.
ReplyDeleteThat's true. I was thinking the Skins drafted Courtney Brown when I originally typed that.
ReplyDeleteI think it's because of page hits...even though those live threads get tons of comments, they don't get alot of page hits. I'm not sure exactly how Scott monetizes off of the threads but I know page hits is a factor. Seems like the individual threads collectively do more then 1 big thread.
ReplyDeleteOr I could just be over thinking it amd nobody's ever thought if just doing an open live thread every night
Peyton Manning is the Lex Luger of football. Wins all his tv matches but you know he's going to do the job when it really counts.
ReplyDeleteThey can never stop playing musical quarterback chairs. Only one guy has done a full 16. At least give a guy a full season with the same coaching staff to see if he can actually play.
ReplyDeleteI love manning but good comparison.. never thought I'd see a lex luger/manning comparison
ReplyDeleteWhy didn't the NFL flex this KC/Denver game to the late slot? I just got back from a weekend trip and the only football I'm going to get to see now is Giants/Skins. That's a cruel joke, Goodell.
ReplyDeleteYou know if someone didn't know wrestling slang this would be a very confusing post.
ReplyDeleteAlex Smith is ballin!!! This drive is almost to quick for them
ReplyDeleteShit, that's a spot on comparison. Any others you can give? Minus the obvious Brady/Cena
ReplyDeleteum...nope. All I got
ReplyDeleteI know right.
ReplyDeleteFlacco/Justin Credible. But seriously...how did that guy win a major championship???
ReplyDeleteRVD/entire Seahawks roster. The obvious.
Someone could probably come up with lots more.
oh, oh, oh, got one. How about Bret Hart for Brett Favre cause they both went kicking and screaming from their spot.
ReplyDeleteAnd they both left the first team they were on for a hated rival to end their careers
ReplyDeleteI'm trying to think of one for Calvin Johnson, but there's nobody I can think of
ReplyDeleteI'd say Scott Steiner. Does some amazing stuff and never raises a fuss or anything. Pops the crowd and goes home.
ReplyDeleteI'm thinking they couldn't because of some convoluted rules they have for this stuff.
ReplyDeleteKevin Nash is jamarcus russell. Talent to be "the guy" but just wants to get paid amd do as little as what's required as possible
ReplyDeleteEast coast bias. I bet the network thinks gmen/skins would draw equal ratings
ReplyDeleteThis loss to the Vikings is killing me.
ReplyDeleteHopefully that doesn't mean Calvin ends up terrible by the end of his career
ReplyDeleteI am pulling for Hoyer because he went to my high school but I want them to take a QB.
ReplyDeleteYou sir, are a damned genius.
ReplyDeleteThe problem is they're so bad and it's so early in the season. If I'm the coach and it's Week 5 and my QB is fucking awful, I'd pull him in hope to maybe salvage the season.
ReplyDeleteWhat have you got for Barry Sanders? Jeff Hardy?
ReplyDeleteYou've covered the Stampede to WWF move, but what about his time in WCW?
ReplyDeleteNot nearly as meta as this:
ReplyDeletehttp://xkcd.com/904/
07 Derek Anderson ftw
ReplyDeleteCBS/FOX can select certain games to be protected from flex scheduling.
ReplyDeleteIf he's not throwing to Jordan Cameron, he's worthless to me. Why did Brian Hoyer have to be so cursed (other than the fact he plays for Cleveland)?
ReplyDeletePretty much, although IIRC it was a pretty weak class to being with. But yeah, I don't see how drafting a late-20s QB out of college with your first pick is going to be a good choice.
ReplyDelete
