  1. The content we love to see: Fuck Duke.
  2. I'm borrowing @CSC's comment at the start of the last thread. Anyway, general life stuff here. I'll actually start since I wanted to vent anyway... My partner Alex and I are trying to buy a vacation cabin/home up in the Catskill Mountains. Have been hunting and searching for just the right place at the right price because, frankly there are some real deals up there. So we happen to find a lovely spot in a town we really like called Smallwood, which happens to be about a 5-10 minute drive from the site of the original Woodstock. After a bit of (seemingly unnecessarily) contentious negotiating, we end up agreeing at a price that's slightly under asking (365 vs 375). We run our inspections and turns out the house needs more or less $40k in work (New roof, big electric fixes, plumbing stuff, some contracting stuff, some landscaping stuff). All of this is apparently news to the seller and more importantly, his realtor, who he'd told that the house was clean and would pass any inspection without issue. So, we itemize everything, and say, please give us about 15k in credit. His reply was to stall for about a week and a half before coming back with a 5k reduction in price. Annoying. Very annoying. We give a best and final offer of 10k in credit or reduction. Just to get him to yes, because if he declines all those problems we listed.... they will remain his. The reply from his realtor: "He says he's not going to reduce another $5." So we walked. Such a shame, but onward. I *almost* want to share the results of the inspection we had done, just so he knows that whomever ends up with the house (whether it remains his, or another buyer) is gonna have some capital-W work on their hands. We'll find a spot, but buying a place is an inherently and necessarily annoying process.
  3. That's as good a place to stop as any. Thread is too long right now. Standby.
  4. Really is fun to see an athlete just mark the hell out when they're handed the WWE championship belt: Just a reminder, this Thursday.... DEAN~!
  5. Hope you had a good Easter weekend! It's April, so it's time for the premiere of Dynasty! This Thursday though, it's DEAN~! Order now!
  6. Well, we're here, the end of the road to WrestleMania! But hey, we still have a few more loose ends to clear up, and we also have the return of the SLAMMYS! Remember Thursday is DEAN~! Sign up and watch!
  7. The fact that it's the Yankees doing it too... jeez.
  8. I think PD is gonna be money as chickenshit heel champs who can actually go in the ring. Let them put the shine on their opponents and drive the crowds insane by pulling out something ridiculous when the face makes a mistake. They're fantastic sellers so if you throw them in there with, say Bron, they're gonna die for him and make him look like $10,000,000 and can pull out a fluke victory, lather rinse repeat.
  9. The Heat beat Portland today by 60. It's the largest victory in Miami's franchise history.
  10. I mean, I'd be upset too if I had to walk to my luxury bus locker room in the rain.
  11. Happy New Beyonce Album Day to those who celebrate.
  12. Nothing that happened in the Thunderdome is canon.
  13. CBS Sports noted the "announced attendance" (their quotation marks) in Oakland was 13,522. Yikes.
  14. BIG Jackie Jormp Jomp energy in this clip. Like, I'm not a big Amy fan and even I'm like "???"
  15. I wanna say the last time the briefcase was switched via a match was Mr. Kennedy losing it to Edge, who cashed in on Taker. So, while it's not without precedent, remember, they're in Philadelphia and doing something that dumb would cause a riot.
  16. I'm gonna rename it the Campbell and Wales Conferences cause I'm sure even they don't know who's in what conference.
  17. Mike Trout smashed a homer in his first AB to give the Angels a 1-0 lead. ... No other starter had a hit as Baltimore won 11-3.
  18. Like I'd quote anything other than the best song they ever did:
  19. Kelly Oubre probably earned himself a couple of games off: "You a bitch. You a bitch. You a bitch. Got it?"
  20. Who will win? Who will lose? Who will marry Blake Carrington? Find out Monday Nights on ABC! THE CARD~ FOR THE AEW CHAMPIONSHIP - Samoa Joe (c) vs. Swerve Strickland FOR THE AEW WOMEN'S CHAMPIONSHIP - Timeless Toni Storm (c) vs. Thunder Rosa FOR THE CONTINENTAL CHAMPIONSHIP - Kazuchika Okada (c) vs. PAC FOR THE TBS CHAMPIONSHIP - Julia Hart (c) vs. Willow Nightengale FOR THE INTERNATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP - Roderick Strong (c) vs. Kyle O'Reilly FOR THE VACANT TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP - The Young Bucks vs. FTR (Wheeler / Harwood) Will Ospreay vs. Bryan Danielson Adam Copeland / Eddie Kingston / Mark Briscoe vs. The House of Black (Black / King / Matthews)
