Not a whole lot going on tonight. There is baseball and Dragon Gate later on.
The Christopher Daniels shoot won the poll with 53% of the vote and that will be recapped Thursday.

I want to take his face......off.
ReplyDeleteLess than two weeks till DragonCon, can't wait. Though I must admit Wizard World Chicago has the most amazing guest list I've ever seen. DC has some good ones as well though.
ReplyDeleteTaking the young one back to school clothes shopping. Plan on grabbing some Irish nachos in the good court. Hell of a night.
ReplyDeleteThe Barbarian would would have made a hell of an opponent for Warrior after he won the World Title. Send him out there to look STRONG!
I feel old when I turn down the club to just stay home.
ReplyDeleteI feel old when I actually am going out tonight for the first time in months...but really had to think about it.
ReplyDeleteWhat are Irish nachos?
ReplyDeleteWatching Hook with the fam.
ReplyDeleteBoiled cheese and tortilla chips?
ReplyDeleteI'm going to see Guardians of the Galaxy tomorrow night. So I'm not feeling the club at all.
ReplyDeleteI assumed potatoes were involved
ReplyDeleteMovies I watched today:
ReplyDeletePale Rider
Cowboys in space
The Parent Trap
Good evening all. Played Final Fantasy X for 2 hours or so today. Made it to the part where the village thing gets destroyed by the boss that was dragging my ship around.
ReplyDeleteRandom list there lol
ReplyDeletehttp://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00EYX1N2S/ref=pd_aw_sbs_1?pi=SS115&simLd=1
ReplyDeleteThat seem like a good surround system to you?
Monday I'll be back to college. Tuesday, army inspection, get rid of this bullshit soon.
ReplyDeleteIt's probably too late to say anything, but I don't like the summerslam poster. It looks like Brock is having a shit.
ReplyDeleteI need to just delete my Facebook account. Way too many people on there today harping about "white privilege."
ReplyDeleteDo you mean Space Cowboys?
ReplyDeleteI don't really care for the SummerSlam colors/graphic in recent years. Looks too cartoonish or something. I dunno, I just don't like it.
ReplyDeleteA friend of mine who's ultra liberal says is a lie.
ReplyDeleteWhat are you taking this semester? I start on the 25th. Not looking forward to it.
ReplyDeleteOn paper SummerSlam should be a show of the year candidate right?
ReplyDeleteI miss SS havind different sets.
ReplyDeleteI'm on hour 9 of a pork butt smoke right now... so that's been going on.
ReplyDeleteGoing to be tough to top WM.
ReplyDeleteMedieval 2
ReplyDeleteAncient 2
Theory
Sociology of education
Filosofy
Sign language.
Anybody interested in watching a PPV tonight? Perhaps a Summerslam....
ReplyDeleteThe only one I think was worse was when they did that green kinda "S' shaped thing in 2002 or something like that.
ReplyDelete... or that thing where the Japanese guys and AJ Styles do things for a while.
ReplyDeleteAside from Lesnar/Cena, I think the show would have been better off without the build and stipulations added, though.
ReplyDeleteYeah, with Clint Eastwood.
ReplyDeleteLet's do '90 at 8pm EST.
ReplyDeleteWell, considering the recent dreary run of pay-per-views this company has had since WrestleMania, I'd say it's a contender on paper. Now let's watch Cena win!
ReplyDeleteYes. I think Devin mentioned one a few days ago.
ReplyDeleteInteresting course load. By Filosophy, you mean Philosophy, right?
ReplyDeleteSign language? Is that required? Or are you taking it for fun?
What does that even mean?
ReplyDeleteI read this afternoon that the WWE has filmed segments of Hornwoggle and El Torito dating Summer Rae and Layla.....
ReplyDeleteCena wins lol!
ReplyDeleteReally? I think it looks weak other than Lesnar/Cena
ReplyDeleteIt's amazing how much less I want to see Ambrose-Rollins over the last 4 weeks or so....
ReplyDeleteYeah, Philosophy. Sign Language is recquired because you can teach deaf people.
ReplyDeletePork butt smoke sounds like a pig farting. I assume however that he is smoking a pigs rear end.
ReplyDeleteThe stip killed it for me
ReplyDeleteI have a bad feeling that may be the only match that delivers. Everything else may be just decent.
ReplyDeleteOh nice. I had a couple friends that had deaf parents. It's a pretty neat language.
ReplyDeleteI start back on the 25th also. Getting ready to read a lot of academic books that are too wordy, that few people have actually read, and that make the same points over and over like a dead horse.
ReplyDeleteTop 5 Summerslams?
ReplyDeleteI'll go 13, 02, 00, 92, 08.
You think because he is short he can't get hot women (and Layla)?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
ReplyDeleteNo more drugs for this man.
ReplyDeleteWorst of all, I think Steph/Bella is gonna be second from the top.
ReplyDeleteJust think of the laughs that will be had!!!!
ReplyDeleteFries with cheese, bacon bits, scallions and ranch dressing on top. Pure class.
ReplyDeleteDon't see why they didn't just fight at the last PPV, have one guy go over, and have the other go over at Summerslam. Seems so simple.
ReplyDelete02, 92, 97, 98, 00
ReplyDeleteI knew potatoes would be involved!
ReplyDeleteI think 1993 is an underrated SummerSlam, but the ending still kills the whole damn show to me.
ReplyDeleteSwitch 08 for 11.
ReplyDeleteNo way jose.
ReplyDeleteSummerslam marathon tomorrow. I think it's 2008, 2012 and 2013.
ReplyDeleteBret/Lawler is my all-time favorite match
ReplyDeleteI think more U.S. schools need to offer sign language as a foreign language.
ReplyDeleteLA is usually a pretty smart/"smart" crowd, so I hope they rebel against this so high up on the card much like how they refused to give HHH his circlejerk ovation.
ReplyDeleteTyrion Lannister proved you can have the swag being short.
ReplyDeleteEven with the shit finish it did have 2 four star+ matches and a couple other fun encounters.
ReplyDeleteHook.......HOOK!.......HOOK!
ReplyDeleteBut that is fantasy. Just sayin'
ReplyDeleteThat's a huge stretch calling Punk/Cena a 4 star match.
ReplyDeleteChicks dig Peter Dinklage, I know few.
ReplyDeleteActually, the pork butt is the front upper shoulder of the hog. It's a 7lb butt, so it needs to smoke at around 235 for close to 10 hours.
ReplyDeleteAfterwards, you get pulled pork sandwiches all weekend.
I have done OK for myself over the years... even though I am taking a break ATM.
ReplyDeleteIf it's a bad match, I'm sure they will, but the overbooking might save it.
ReplyDeletehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LYgONLrYmnI
ReplyDeleteI saw it again last night, it's an old college friends birthday today. I would be OK staying at home and XBOXing all night but I don't want to be the friend that bails.
ReplyDeleteWHEEEEEEE! WHAT A PWEDICAMENT!
ReplyDeleteWhat if Kane, or shall I say Jacob Goodnight, interrupts the WWE title match?
ReplyDeleteIt's never been harder to be a white guy in America...
ReplyDeleteOh. I thought maybe halfway through you'd have to turn the other cheek.
ReplyDeleteI'm gonna laugh if its ever revealed the guy that got shot in Ferguson was actually a criminal and he threatened the cop with a knife or something.
ReplyDeleteStuck pulling babysitting duty so I'm not going to be able to stick around. I recommended Unforgiven '99 or whatever that show from September of 1999 is called so go with that one.
ReplyDeleteI assume you mean in a world with only WWE. G1 aside, there's no way this tops BOLA later this month..
ReplyDeleteI liked that one.
ReplyDelete'11 is one of the SS all-timers, with a near-full-monty main event and a ****1/4 co-main event and no real duds on the card. Even the Kelly match and Show/Sheamus matches were inoffensive.
ReplyDeleteGoodbye WWE for a few months.
ReplyDeleteWhich would be worse....Cena retaining by pinfall and Cena moving on to feud with someone new like Cesaro or Reigns OR Kane interfering and Cena winning by DQ to start a Cena vs. Kane feud?
ReplyDeleteWhat a tremendous view for a short person dating Summer.
ReplyDeleteThe second option without a doubt.
ReplyDeleteDo you put BBQ or hot sauce on it afterwards?
ReplyDeleteLoaded fries or potato skins.
ReplyDeleteNo more Kane. Why can't he peacefully leave?
ReplyDeleteLive thread off to a great start... like we were all lurking around, waiting for a new topic all afternoon.
ReplyDeleteI'm more excited for BOLA than I was for G1.
ReplyDeleteWell, there's some footage that appears to show him robbing a store already, although some are saying it's not that guy. Some say the stills don't match the video footage at the convenience store. I have no idea. If it is that guy it sort of shoots down his parents saying he was a model citizen and such.
ReplyDeleteAnd even if he did, no reason to execute him in the street. Hell, even the Aurora shooter was taken alive.
ReplyDeleteIF he was "executed." The forensics evidence is going to give a clearer picture of that, I'm sure.
ReplyDeleteI think this whole incident reinforces what I have been saying for years in that cops need to start wearing cameras on their persons so that we know we have definitive proof one way or the other about what happened in these situations. I'm sure that's going to cost lots of $$$, but it's money well spent in my view for everyone's sake.
I agree about the cameras.
ReplyDeleteI've come to accept Kane will never leave.
ReplyDeleteShould we do a SummerSlam ppv tonight or what?
ReplyDeleteI'm up for it.
ReplyDeleteSS 89
ReplyDeleteKane is like Jello Pudding Pop--no!, actually he's more like Kodak Film--no!, actually Kane is like the New Coke; he'll be around forever, heh heh heh!
ReplyDeleteLittle known SummerSlam fact:
ReplyDelete88, 89, 90 all featured matches with people purposely removing clothes and exposing their underpants or buttocks.
1988 - Rude pulled his pants down to reveal his Jake Roberts' wives face on his tights.
Elizabeth removed her dress.
1989 - Piper came out and "mooned" Rude during his IC title match with Warrior.
1990 - Rude's butt was briefly exposed in the cage match with Warrior.
02, 00, 13, 98, 08
ReplyDeleteThat page made me miss the subtitles of shows.
ReplyDeleteRuffio! Ruffio! Ruffio!
ReplyDelete91, 92, 98, 00, 01 or 02
ReplyDeleteRU! FI! OOOOOOOOOO!
ReplyDeleteTo sort of jump on that, I was talking the other day with someone I play ball with. I'm a big believer that companies such as Wal-Mart shouldn't pay their employees more for no reason, but at the same time the Walton family is worth about $144B, and they're telling us they can't afford to pay people more than $8 or $9/hr?
ReplyDeleteThey never pay what you produce, that's the "Mais-valia" principle of capitalism. The boss' profits don't start at the sell but at the production.
ReplyDeleteWow! Give us updates, that sounds good
ReplyDeleteThere's 7 different NFL games I got bets on.
ReplyDeleteSmall chance of that happening.
ReplyDeleteOr carnitas...fuck I'm starving after reading this
ReplyDeletePreseason games?
ReplyDeleteWow. I bet during the regular season, but I won't touch preseason games.
ReplyDeleteEvery home team has won today.
ReplyDeleteStill smoking... just a mop every couple hours of 50/50 apple juice and apple cider vinegar with some of the rub mixed in. I use a paintbrush for it.

ReplyDeleteThe author makes some astute points, but really misses in others. The problem with creating a "just society" is that the definition of such a "just society" differs based on who you are talking to. For some its flat income equality, for others it means simply having the opportunity to succeed or fail, etc. Also, his analysis of the New Deal of 1932 is simplistic and flawed.
ReplyDeleteTo me, what you are facing is the consequences of a globalized market place. The reason that marginal taxes could be prohibitively high in the 1950s is that U.S. companies had nowhere else to go. Europe was devastated by war, no one was going to Africa (still under European control), Southeast Asia was in the same boat, and China was out of access. Now, though, you have U.S. laborers competing with people willing to work for less than $2/day with no environmental or labor standards. There's no such thing as "free" trade. Never has been or will be, which is why U.S. trade policy must be adjusted. You also need to close tax loopholes that reward outsourcing, offshoring of income, etc. Both parties of guilty of not doing a damn thing about either because they have lots of corporate cash behind them (hence why I support a campaign finance amendment to the constitution). For all of Obama's talk about how bad Mitt Romney was in 2012, he sure got a lot of corporate backing.
... aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand YOU have a problem.
ReplyDeleteMy kind of guy right here
ReplyDeleteIt's not your fault. It's not your fault. It's not your fault.
ReplyDeleteWhat show did we decide on?
ReplyDeleteBest pinball table ever? Gotta go with Addams Family.
ReplyDeleteWe haven't.
ReplyDeleteGo to Random.org and do a random number 1-15.
ReplyDelete'90
ReplyDeleteThe temple of doom one has a a soft spot for me because it was in this old video store I went to as a kid
ReplyDelete'91
ReplyDeleteEdit: 25
ReplyDeleteIt's the summer, man...people be crazy.
ReplyDelete'91. Let us exult in the comedic timing of The Mountie.
ReplyDeleteWell, I hate Wal-Mart because they just sell cheap Chinese crap and flat out lie about "buy American" campaigns that just get more people to buy Chinese crap. However, to play Devil's Advocate, who are we - as those who have not put up the capital or taken the risk to run the company - to tell them what they should pay their workers?
ReplyDeletePeople should just try to avoid Wal-Mart as much as humanly possible. It's what I do, but I know people just can't resist the smiley faces and low prices!
If Kane comes out... Brock should fuck him up too!
ReplyDeleteAlso, why would the Authority want Lesnar to win the belt when he's never there?
As you get deeper in the game and fill out the rest of your party, keep in mind the move "Mix" when you get it; it's incredibly useful on tough enemies.
ReplyDeleteUniverse hates us. Did that and got 8, which would be SummerSlam 95.
ReplyDeleteNot much about this Authority storyline ever makes any sense. Cena is so NOT what Stone Cold was.
ReplyDeleteI only bet technically 4 bets. 2 are parlays and 2 are on teams to just win. For a total of $20 actually bet. As Gorilla would say, "Long arms and deep pockets. "
ReplyDeleteBlack Unicorn is the beat nickname in the NFL. Discuss.
ReplyDeleteOH GOD
ReplyDeleteThat's awesome for some reason.
ReplyDeleteYep
ReplyDeleteOK. 1989, 1991, and 1990 have been suggested. Let's hold a vote. First to 2 votes wins.
ReplyDeleteI vote 1991.
91
ReplyDeleteSummerSlam 1991 watch starts at 8:15 EST.
ReplyDeleteYes regular season games are easier and more fun to bet. Preseason is a crap shoot. Which reminds me I like craps. I'm vacationing in Reno for a few days.
ReplyDeleteI've got alligator arms when it comes to preseason.
ReplyDeleteI'm going to get food. Postpone til 8:30 please.
ReplyDeleteI'm still partial to "Beast Mode", if only because that run against the Saints is still awesome.
ReplyDeleteI prefer the Ginja Ninja... Andy Dalton.
ReplyDeleteFavorite betting story ever: I bet a friend of mine $100 straight-up on the Auburn-Alabama game last year. It's my favorite story ever, so you know who I took.
ReplyDeleteGonna head up to 'slam tomorrow late morning, might partake in whatever pregame activities they have at LA live. Just got some edibles for the show. I'm tempted to take the train up but that requires more punctuality than I'm known for.
ReplyDeleteOhhh... 91 sounds like it's pretty random. What's even on that show?
ReplyDeleteYep. Lol. Usually I would too, but I only bet $20 total.
ReplyDeleteCan't believe it's already a year since I went to SS '13. Where the hell did my life go?
ReplyDeleteI say we give this guy time to get his food
ReplyDeleteThe Savage-Elizabeth wedding: The match made in hell. At least that's what Bobby Heenan told me.....
ReplyDeleteWILL YOU STOP!?
ReplyDeleteAgreed. i have nothing but time
ReplyDelete00, 13, 08, 92, 11
ReplyDeleteThese aren't in order. I have 02 6th. I just never really liked Rock vs. Brock.
I believe 2000 would have much better if they had HHH retain at King of the Ring and just have him face Angle. Don't know what the Rock would have done, though.
Best show ever, so much fun being there. This is a three peat for me. I'm still annoyed I didn't go in 2011
ReplyDeleteWord. I just made a liquor store run for the little lady. She's in for "SuperSlam" tonight as well.
ReplyDeleteI still can't believe that finish. I didn't think the FG was necessarily a bad idea, but for the love of god, you have to be ready for that return.
ReplyDeleteEdbiles? they let you take stuff in?
ReplyDelete... AND I TOLD HER YOU SAID HELLO, CHRIS!
ReplyDeleteThey aren't gonna check if he has underwear on or not.
ReplyDeleteLast year when I was in Vegas, I bet on Tampa to win their first game of the year, and they did. Beat the dolphins.
ReplyDeleteI'll eat it about 45 minutes before I go in. Gotta maximize my fucked up ness at the show.
ReplyDeleteI said at the time it was the craziest thing I've ever seen, and I still believe that. I was on the phone with my friend, and he just went dead silent.
ReplyDeleteJust got back from catching the movie Calvary, about a priest in Ireland told by a parishoner who had been molested that he'll kill the priest in a week, because killing a good priest would turn more heads than a bad one. It's really good.
ReplyDeleteOr his GF could put it in her purse... WITH HIS BALLS!
ReplyDeleteEveryone kinda quiet leaving the arena after the HHH/Orton screwjob was weird. I think we knew something was coming, but LA seems to get boned on sending fans on home happy (the first two Staples Center PPV main events ended in no-contests and the fourth didn't even have a title on the line as a main event).
ReplyDeleteI'm hoping to throw them at roman Reigns, he's so dreamy
ReplyDeleteIs that the one with Brendan Glesson? He's good.
ReplyDeleteBetter hope Steen isn't there to eat them first. /Farva
ReplyDeleteAnother good movie about this theme is Mea Maxima Culpa.
ReplyDeleteYep. It's too bad it's coming out in summer, his performance deserves a look for Oscar consideration.
ReplyDeletePork butt still holding at 180 firm... fucking temperature.
ReplyDeleteUh huh huh.....you said its butt was firm. Uh huh huh.
ReplyDeleteDBSM, this is serious business here! The collagens and connective tissues need to break down!
ReplyDeleteIT'S CHOWDA! SAY IT RIGHT!
ReplyDeleteRE 4 would be the perfect 3rd person shooter if it wasn't for the babysitter missions.
ReplyDeleteShe's probably not coming. Initially she said she would because my buddy I went to the last two slams and bfg with can't make it but she really doesn't want to so I'm just gonna meet a friend of mine who lives in LA and I don't see much there. He's not a wrestling fan at all but its a free ticket and he wants to kick it. Way better the bringing her tbh. Plus he has an office right by the staples center so I'll just pick him up and park in his garage. This works out well for me too
ReplyDeleteI agree that, as consumers, we have no right to tell Wal-Mart how much to pay people. I just don't want to hear the company tell me they can't afford to pay a good employee a decent living wage.
ReplyDeleteI actually do work for the company, and while I get paid pretty well, I know plenty of people who do not. There's a whole lot middle-aged people working for them right now who are never going to be able to retire. To me, that's an issue. I mean, even if you're putting 6% in a 401(k), when you're only making $18-22,000 a year, that's not a whole hell of a lot.
Even with the escort stuff, it's easily one of the very greatest games I've ever played.
ReplyDeleteGood to see the dolphins OL is still completely pathetic*. 7-9 for the rest of eternity!
ReplyDelete(* = yes i know it's only the preseason. I don't expect it be any better in the real games)
Capcom should just put Leon in every RE game, no one cares for Chris.
ReplyDeleteEscort missions suck. I remember hating the Control mission in Goldeneye where you have to protect Natalya as she types forever on the computer.
ReplyDeleteTheyve also had a bunch of PED busts this year, right?
ReplyDelete2-0! 21 more wins to go for the Saints! lol
ReplyDeleteDo any of the Canadian readers want to watch the network with us tonight? Oh wait... BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
ReplyDeleteIf I was you I'd eat too much food to be able to fuck. But I never get to eat good shit like that so when I do I just push it to the extreme
ReplyDeleteI vote for Claire and her hairy Princess Toadstool sideburns.
ReplyDeleteThat I agree with.
ReplyDeleteThe second Stage of GOW's final boss is extremely tough, you have to beat Kratos' clones while protecting your family.
ReplyDeleteEscort missions are the bane of my gaming existence, along with lack of check/save points and stealth missions in non-stealth games. The most annoying IMO is the puppy stage in Earthworm Jim.
ReplyDeleteOnly $11.99!
ReplyDeleteI'll kill everyone. Especially everyone in the jury.
ReplyDeleteLeon & Claire, done. Like RE 2.
ReplyDeletePerfect escort mission: beginning of a link to the past. Shirt, Zelda didn't get in the way and she couldn't be hurt. Fuck yeah.
ReplyDelete
