  1. This is almost worthy of a coveted Silver Sow award.
  2. "We're just such a close family it's hard to process." father of family after a family member is given a paralysis drug and raped at a show "Kid, shut up about it, this is good PR for us. Remember we're all a family." So who is in the family I wonder? I guess Brock is family. But Ashley Massaro was not and neither was Janel Ganet. Nor was Rita Chatterton part of "the family." All those ring boys weren't part of "the family" either. It's kind of like how most companies will tell you this is a "team effort." Who's on the team? Not the workers. Maybe the top executives but no one below that. Not the customers. Not the small owners you sell products to. It turns out "the team" is like five guys and everyone else is blood for the machinery. I wonder how many people who are going to tell us soon how much of a tightly knit family the WWE is were or are really part of the family? How many really think they are part of the family. I guess the family dog is sort of part of the family. But most families wouldn't do to their pet what these families do to their sons and daughters.
  3. How sick is it that what Vince said to this woman is basically what all the rich famous workers are all asking us to do with all of it. But it's not one bad experience. Now it's two women who were professionally and efficiently raped that we know of (and some others that we kind of know about...and the many many others that deep down we know about but don't "know" yet). I repeat my original question. How many gang rapes does it take before we can be okay with ruining the good work of the WWE? The sane answer was always and remains: 1...1 is enough to tear this company down and for any person who has the slightest human conscience left in them to never have anything to do with it again. The new answer is: As many as it takes to keep the $$$$ flowing, I guess but I'd rather focus on my Wrestlemania moment right now. and that's basically the answer you get too from your boss about how many people have to lose their pensions. How many people have to get laid off this week. How many people have to drown in the Rio Grande or the Mediterranean. How many poors have to die of painkiller ODs. How many nurses have to work triple shifts until how many patients live their last days being warehoused like dogs to be put down. A lot of these situations are far bigger and harder to solve and more difficult to avoid being part of than this one. And few are a simple and clear a line staring us all in the face as this one. And yet we still wait for one human being to emerge from this company and say anything other than "let's not let one bad experience ruin the good work we're doing."
  4. It makes sense. Buying the naming rights to an arena has always a brilliant use of money considered by only the smartest CEOs. Why I was just at Guarnateed Rate Field the other day and was zooming with a friend of mine at Enron Stadium about how the new renovations at FTX arena look amazing.
  5. Anyone who is outraged and screaming at the top of their lungs about the Rock ruining their story has made their choice already. Their story is the the more important thing. The company doesn't have to do anything to hold them. They're all on reddit and twitter already doing their best to shout down any news that comes out with "HE"S GONE alREADY!"
  6. All great new keywords that will need to be added into keyword search on everyone’s favorite streaming platform!
  7. I had no idea that was in there. That was a short story they made into a twilight zone ep. Then remade twice in later anthology series before this. ‘man he was phoning this in for a check I guess?
  8. All of this will look so great in Netflix 4k streaming right after How To Train YouR Dragon.
  9. It used to drive me crazy that Mark McGwire's jsutification was something like "As I got older I was a smarter better hitter so it wasn't fair that I wasn't as fast and strong at the same time so I could be my true self." MF that is why the game is hard. By the time you get smart at it you aren't young and strong anymore. Every single person lives that in and out of sports. Can you imagine if Ali was as fast in 1979 as he was in 1965? NO ONE gets to do that. That's the point.
  10. It were the gummies that ruined my maths. the gummies and the lead that ruined my maths. Oh, dear old ma, I didn't mean to draw your wraths. It were the gummies and the lead what ruined my maths. my price point for VS used to be that $18 half price #, but so many are pricier 4K now that start out higher than $40 and I see $23 I'm like "close enough!"
  11. In 1978 my dad took me to the movies I can't remember to see what kids movie, but he pulled the ole' "Well that one's sold out" so he could take me to see that instead.
  12. Some current and former talent: “Don’t answer the phone this week.” ”Are they laying people off?” ”no. Federal prison.”
  13. let's all watch Action Jackson tonight and watch him beat the crap out of Craig T. Nelson.
  14. I mean even if no one “knew” anything there were so many stories. Not everything in that sleaze thread was made up. And if you got a job at an any other place in the world and heard THAT MANY stories of a certain type how long would you last hearing them pile up before you needed to know before,you could go back?
  15. Am I wrong or was Mr. Bentley on The Jeffersons and absolute freak show psychopath?
  16. What man I did not even get that far! i cannot believe how much I value what must have been a weekend speed binge for those men.
  17. My brain registered this as "a less doughy Stephen Furst" and I thought 1) what an odd comparison 2) what would that even have looked like?
  18. Yes. Bentley was the one and only pervert in that buidling. But my dear GOd was he a sick man.
  19. Please tell me netiher Lionel is involved in this. {even the bad one]
  20. Selling all of our sports leagues and networks to online Gambling companies was, in retrospect, the single stupidest thing anyone in charge of anything has done to immediately destroy said thing.
  21. OHM Y GOD IT IS HALF PRICE RIGHT NOW> Also this: As soon as I saw Yaphet Koto in the trailer it went in my basket. https://vinegarsyndrome.com/collections/frontpage/products/5-card-stud THIS SOME MAGIC WEED I"M ON!!!!!
  22. Do you know how much I hate myself right now for knowing who the owner of XPW was? Like that's messed up. I would not date a man who knew that. I would not let anyone I know go on a date with a man who knows that.
  23. Streaming on Amazon Prime who announced they are investing 14 billion in XPW to counter rival Netflix When asked about founder Rob Sicari's horrific crimes CCO Lickboot Offjacker said "He's gone. He's not there. He's gone."
