  2. Found a HUGE flaw in the game. They are still trying to push the fraudulent story that Randy Savage was fueled by jealousy when the Mega Powers exploded. Hulk Hogan was a grand standing, scene stealing asshole, who did everything he could to try to overshadow the World's Champion. The final straw was when Hulk Hogan tried to steal Macho Man's woman, by leaving ringside and letting the Twin Towers to beat Randy Savage into a pulp. When Macho Man went to find where the love of his life had disappeared to, he found Hulk Hogan trying to molest her unconscious body in the locker room. Enraged by the betrayal Randy Savage did the only thing any real man would do, he kicked Hulk Hogan's ass. It pains me to have to use Hulk Hogan in this match, because I was raised right and I don't condone such bitch ass behavior.

  4. SHUT THE INTERNET DOWN. This wins. Also was that Halloween Havoc 2000 ad supposed to be in reference to something in particular? That was when my interest in WCW was at an all time low but I cant remember anything futuristic or historic or whatever about that show.

  11. By virtue of not being in the World Series, it's necessarily behind Maz, Carter, Fisk, Gibson '84, Gibson '88. Probably on the level of Ozzie's "Go crazy folks!" home run in the '85 NLCS, maybe a bit ahead because it was a grand slam. It's "importance" will get overinflated because a Boston guy hit it and half the people telling the story in 5 years will have it happening in game 7 in the bottom of the 9th. I'd say it's comfortably in the top 10 of postseason home runs but also comfortably behind at least 5 others.

  18. To me it had one redeeming quality. It had one of my favorite horror cliches. There just happens to be a guy right there who is a "dream mythology" scholar or something...a thing that DOES NOT EXIST AS A SPECIALTY IN THE HUMANITIES!!!! but always seems to show up in these movies. I love movies where a character goes to a local college and someone is like, "You should talk to professor Reinicke in our occult history department. I think he wrote a book about the transmigration of souls through REM sleep." And it was Yaphet Kotto.

  20. I don't have anything against the company. I worked for them for a while at Sam's Club. It's a company you can go work for out of high school and if you have any brains inside your head at all you can make a career there and move up rather quickly if you choose to go that route. They have a lot of really good benefits. They also provide a lot of people with jobs.

  22. Yes. I wrote an article about NASCAR a few months ago. Fox and TNT inked their deal w/NASCAR when the sport was hyped as becoming the new American pastime. That didn't happen. At all. NASCAR's live attendance has completely tanked to the point where they don't announce figures anymore. (The excuse is that a lot of publicly traded companies own NASCAR venues and publishing those is advanced guidance, which is a hilariously lame excuse.) The reason for this is twofold: 1) When it was trying to become the new pastime, they put in stadiums in a lot of cities that didn't have any history of racing -- Chicago, Phoenix, LA, etc. They had some success at first but then the fad ended. In order to stage those races, though, they had to take events from elsewhere. So a lot of their small tracks in their southern core were dismissed. And that leads to 2) Their core fanbase is the white, rural/southern, working-class. This demographic was largely hurt the worst in The Great Recession -- all those Sun Belt construction jobs vanished and haven't come back. North Carolina is the essential capital of NASCAR and their blue collar job base shrunk by a giant amount and hasn't returned.Their TV ratings have completely tanked since they signed their first big deal in 2005. They're down almost 50%, in fact. But they still just signed a crazy deal despite the absolutely terrible ratings and demographics hardships. And they still inked a billion dollar contract.The answer is because of programming. Fox and NBC have new sports ventures and need live programming. The WWE is a different venture in that it can place its shows on sports networks AND strictly entertainment networks. NASCAR had pretty much four competitors for its product -- and two of them, Turner and ESPN, were already soured on them -- and drew a 10-year deal. The WWE has more options for broadcasting, is live, and has a decades long history of being one of the most-watched cable TV programs. Aside from football on ESPN, Raw usually is the most watched cable show of the week. That's an historic track record of ratings that any advertiser would want. Even if the ratings aren't what they were in the 90s (or even down from a few years ago), it doesn't matter. They're usually number one every week and they can appear on either USA/Spike/NBC Sports/Fox Sports/etc. without anyone blinking an eye. The WWE is the only national game in town for wrestling. It's an internationally known brand. It has changed its marketing and programming to avoid controversy. It broadcasts live and has a dedicated that has followed the product for decades. The fanbase is nationwide and not dependent upon one region. And it's a product that's built-in to have its audience "grow up" with the product -- like us, you get hooked as a kid and stay with it for years. The production values of the company are amazing. They're going to sign a ridiculously huge deal. It's a great television product.

  37. Just read that the good news is that people can still do modding on this game but the bad news is you have to have a jailbroken or jtagged XBox to get the CAWs. There's already a killer looking Goldust mod that I'd love to have right now.

  40. I decided to do some WWF snowflake analysis with match lengths to investigate how much did longer matches and higher meltzer star ratings correlated. http://indeedwrestling.blogspot.com/2013/10/systematic-analysis-of-meltzer-ratings.html tl;dr version = there is a definite progression where the all the metrics (25th to 75th quartiles) all move in lockstep with the star rating; however, if you just look at the scatter plot it reinforces that there there is a still a huge amount of variation which completely obfuscates the relationship.
