Bret Hart on Raw 49ers on ABC. It must be 1997! Comebacks are allowed to be formulaic. Bret’s were, but his whole matches were not. What happened on Raw?

They’re playing like they haven’t even considered the possibility of losing, besides a couple of miscues early. They’re calling basic plays and controlling the LoS. Whenever there is pressure Purdy reacts to it like prime Joe Montana. Now they just picked off Rodgers, which is their 2nd big defensive play in very few chances.

CMC OUT! Jordan Mason is a starting caliber RB and this should mean nothing, but Shanny might try to get to cute to early and mess everything up.

Whew supreme it was just week 1 and I think many things will come out in the wash. Meanwhile it’s possible that we haven’t even seen the worst quarterback yet. I’m a huge Brock fan but nobody never has a bad game and he hasn’t had one yet. I do remember his 4 INT game but the Ravens beat them all up and down the field that night and there were tipped balls and everything. Then there’s Aaron Rodgers. Talk about stats lie and stinking it up in big games. I don’t think that’s how it will go for either of them tonight but I don’t have any information why. I predicted earlier that the Jets would roll to 1-0…….and 6-11. While the 49ers rolled to 0-1 and 11-6. Idk…

Are the Cowboys statpadding and celebrating hot dang that’d be great if we just jumped straight to midseason for with them

Greg Olsen is great and even when he’s wrong it’s nowhere as annoying as other color guys not even talking about the game for some Tweet for 8 years ago or something

That’s the first time I’ve ever seen the sunset flip on the quarterback from over the pile on the sneak really work.

They aren’t good at chipping an MVP caliber OLB I know that. Granted the plays don’t appear to even call for a chip. They’re just going right by him and he messes up the play every time.

I had the Bills written off as week 1 stuff, and if they come back and win that won’t change. They aren’t going to be able to just come back every week. The Cardinals might be able to blow it every week and that would be the only other thing I would be on happening often along with Carolina.

Everything I’ve watched so far today stinks of week 1. I wouldn’t put any longterm stock in any results today.

And I need to get to that junk store!

Columbo isn’t my favorite show but I watch it whenever it comes on because it was a pleasant sign of the times. There’s 1 episode in particular that is so bad, yet so accurate if you were there. It was 1 of the “new” ones that people agree weren’t as good.

I first saw this on whatever WWF TV show was on Fox that started the wrestling block back in the day, which of course was otherwise NWA and regional TV. It was the only match on the show I ever saw that wasn’t a total squash. Koko beat up a guy in a tag team match and did that thing, tagged his partner and his partner lost.

I’ll add that I’ve seen many. It seems like every time something comes up I’ve never seen it. The Dibiase match isn’t exactly a pure wrestling match either, but it is 1 of the best, most unique angles in history that doesn’t seem like such just because it’s been copied so many times. And it all happened in 1 hour. It felt like 3, or like an hour after a year long build. Just an amazing match. I think the best older technical wrestling match I’ve seen by Ric Flair is actually from Japan vs Ricky Choshu? Or Jumbo? Idk…I remember a good one vs Brad Armstrong. Kerry Von Erich. I remember coming to this conclusion about Flair actually, when I first saw some older stuff that wasn’t token picks of Starrcade main events or whatever.

He was always wrestling different people but the most available matches aren’t really the best. Dusty, Harley, I said Ronnie even though that was way later in 1987 but still. Even though the Steamboat matches have always been out there, they seem like they were out there from least to best. It was the Spring Stampede 94 tape that was in retail stores back in the day.
