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.

One encouraging thing about the Falcons is that you are definitely going to be find out how good Kyle Pitts and Bijan Robinson is because they are using them more and more in week 1.
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.

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.

That would be a good spot for someone to bring back. Maybe Rick O'Shea?
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.

I think Bret Hart is going based on his personal experiences in WWF. If we only seen Ric Flair past 40 I'm sure alot of us would still think he was very good but if we never seen him in the NWA , JCP, Mid-Atlantic , touring world champion and before working the territories then we would have missed out on alot of his best work. That would be like judging 90% of 70s and 80s wrestlers based on their WWF run. The TV style , the schedule and Vinces quirks are all things that play a roll in limiting a wrestlers abilities
We’ve definitely talked about this before. Flair’s pinnacle was 1984 or so, not 1989 even though he was still really freaking great while also having really freaking great opponents. In 1984 he was carrying Dusty, Ronnie, Hawk who he wrestled a lot somehow. Even Harley Race, which is not a knock. That’s why Harley finally handed off to Flair for good. If I had to pick the 10 best Ric Flair matches for just wrestling, or work if I’m talking to Bret Hart, I’m picking nothing from any Starrcade that made all that money. I’m probably not even picking a Steamboat match unless there’s an older one somewhere that’s better. I haven’t gotten around to watching their older matches.
-
I have the best childhood memories of that show because it’s the first wrestling tape we ever rented, but I have never watched it as an adult. So while I have very good memories of the show, they don’t really go together or make sense of some kind of wrestling ppv that I can evaluate. I might as well be evaluating something else I’ve never seen ever.

I know Bret and Flair have went back and forth back and forth but in 1 interview that I can’t find again Bret said he didn’t get to watch much other wrestling as a professional wrestler so when Flair came to the WWF he was happy to finally see him wrestle after everything he’d heard and was not only let down but…well you know. I think that’s all there was to it and all the personal stuff that followed was just 2 old wrestlers being 2 old wrestler at each other. I love Ric Flair and have and will continue to defend him but crisp technical offensive showcases weren’t going on with him in 1992. They hadn’t been for a long time. I don’t think Bret ever knew how limited Flair was by then, even though he’d still been in a ton of great matches because of other things he was great at. He thought that was just him and it had always been.

I thought he was out of bounds, but because they ruled it a catch I thought it would stay a catch. That was probably the closest correct overturn I’ve ever seen.

The false starts on the tackles needed to be dealt with tbh. The Chiefs will pull away with this one soon IMO. I could be wrong. If I’m not I don’t think we’ve seen the last of the Ravens. They’re running basic ass plays for some reason. If the reason is just because it’s week 1 then we definitely haven’t seen the last of them IMO.

O no not Cris Collinsworth!!!

I love postprime HBK just because he could freaking do all that stuff at his age. And the storyline they pulled off with the UT matches. Only he could do that.

Back on topic. I posted that without reading the thread late yesterday. I choose The Rock and Cena for reasons already given and reasons I’ve gave before. Early Steve Austin, as Jarrett and Farooq so gracefully pointed out, is another one because all he did was say ass over and over. That was the cheapest pop of them all, overshadowed only by the others that involved blood and shit. SCSA grew on me though because he expanded on the whole thing and I realized that he deserves respect for coming up with a cheap pop that didn’t almost kill somebody like others did.

I’m looking forward to the Jets vs the 49ers because I’m still the same fool I was in 1998. No matter how many times I was let down on a Monday night I always came back for more and it’s no different here lol the truth is they’re trying to recapture last year’s hype for Rodgers as a Jet and it so won’t happen, even though all he seemingly has to do is play the whole game compared to last year. Either the Jets win and it stays in week 1 for forever like last year, and like Rodgers beating a team in year’s past, or the 49ers just bash their skulls in while the announcers scramble for excuses that they didn’t make for Zach Wilson.
The 49ers and Bills have been the funnest teams to me by far. I could see the Bills losing a step. They lost so many people. They did seem like they learned that they can’t just put it all on Allen so if they’ve worked hard to get ready with the new guys maybe they will still contend.
-
I could see a 2 loss team making the playoffs easy almost, especially as times goes on. If only that meant FSU wouldn’t lose any more I’d just feel great about it
. That game was exactly 1 hair of a tier above Willie Taggart level ball. The only thing we didn’t do yesterday was forget basic rules like we did with Taggart that time the WRs kept lining up off the line without asking the ref.
-
We were always climbing back under Norvell, and the worst loss in our history that most people don’t even remember, didn’t stop us. We only got the portal whore reputation this year. It’s since kind of attached itself to his whole time here. In any event this is what it got us.

Our backup is not the most gifted athlete but he played the whole UGA game and he didn’t wince. He’s better than this guy for that reason alone. This dude is shook big time.
