I'm upset that I'll never be a member of the Columbus Xoggz.

I used to post here years and years ago. I wanted to start again since the WWE has been really good and I missed stuff like Ken The Box in my life. Couldn't get past any registration filters ever, though, for about two years.

A few that come to mind: 1) The epic Nets/Pacers Double OT playoff game. Reggie Miller dunked (!) to extend the game. Craziness from that brief, fleeting era when the Nets were worth watching. 2) Some Phils/Mets game a few years ago that went into 13 innings. Carlos Ruiz played third base for a bit. Six infielders a few different times. Just one of those crazy nights of baseball. There was also a lot of very good anti-Mets heckling in my section. 3) First game in NYC after 9/11. I hate the Mets but exploded when Piazza went yard in the 8th. I also loved the stunning "Liza!" chant after Liza Minelli's 7th inning stretch. Best sports, period: 1) La Salle beating Butler this past season. My alma mater upset a Top 10 team for the first time in pretty much history on a late-game layup from senior Ramon Galloway. Ramon struggled the entire game but ended up driving since the Explorers had no time outs. The students stormed the court. A rousing applause for a few minutes for the team post-game. A few La Salle folks (and perhaps myself) wiped a tear or two away.After the game, Ramon broke down in the press conference. Tears of joy? Nope. He said that all he wanted to do was hug his mom after the game -- she was going through some sort of emergency and wasn't there.

The Wyatt's forcibly baptizing AJ in some brackish stormwater near their compound would rule. AJ in that sheep mask would create an Earth Crisis-level firestorm of pervy fan-fic, too.Wyatt Family vs. Dolph/Big E. would be a lot of fun.

I actually liked that. They're supposed to be backwoods monsters. It's supposed to be out-of-control.

On another note, I could totally see how Bray took ownership of that property. I bet he or Luke Harper's aunt lived there. She ended up with dementia or something. They started living there to "care" for her. She's now in some crawlspace while Bray cashes her disability check at the local payday loan spot on her behalf.

They like doing the "loser joins enemy" gimmick. They did it with Scott Steiner and Test, John Morrison and Ted Jr., CM Punk and Rey, and Cena and The Nexus. They could do Bray vs. Kane at SummerSlam w/ a losing Kane joining the Family. Or the Wyatt's could just simply kidnap Kane and brainwash him. I'd prefer that, actually. Daniel Bryan having to try and save his estranged friend would be pretty epic.

The fans who chanted "Husky" at Wyatt aren't smart. They just remembered who his old character was. Who gives a crap if he had a previous name for the six weeks he was on Raw three years ago? So what he had a dumb name? They've more than fixed that problem and have developed the best new character in years. I've been a huge Bray fan since FCW (and was a Husky fan, too). His NXT stuff has been amazing. His Raw build-up was arguably the best build-up for a new character they've ever done. His debut was absolutely epic -- the video promo ("WAKE UP!") was an all-time great. The darkness with the lantern emerging was awesome. The attack was great. It was an A+ segment. Fans who are actually smart recognized that. Supposedly, at least according to Stroud, a "That Was Awesome" chant broke out when they stretchered Kane. The nitwits chanting "Husky" are dumb dumbs.

Defunct sports teams, particularly any Arena Football/indoor soccer/indoor lacrosse teams from the 90s which had needless "x" and "z" lettering in teal.

That Nathan Rabin book was pretty solid. I wish he got into the details of his nervous breakdown a bit more. But his breakdown of The Gathering and the cameo of Colt was great.I just read a book by the drummer of Semisonic of all bands. Not just that, but I really enjoyed it. It's a great look at the sleaziness of trying to get a single on the radio and the behind-the-scenes nonsense of corporate rock tours.

I don't know if they'd hotshot him that fast but Bray Wyatt might finagle his in after taking out Kane. They might as well hand him the briefcase and let him hold it for a while while he wars with Kane or whoever else. No one else in the Raw side of things needs the briefcase to get over. I'd love to see Cena beat Henry and then Daniel and Mark have a brief feud to determine the number one contender. The world wants that. The world needs that.On the Smackdown side of things, I hope they give Wade some shine. He's overdue. He's one of the all-time greatest smug j-o heels. He'd be a perfect foil for Dolph. It'd be great to see AJ start to swoon over Wade's British accent. Maybe he woos her with a Brit-pop mix tape heavy on the Manic Street Preachers?
