I think Heyman would have been a better fit than Cornette who seemed so out of place in the WWF along with managing a monster like Yoko. Remember that Heyman idolized and was mentored by the Terrible Trio of Albano, Blassie & Grand Wizard and their bread and butter was talking for monsters who couldn't talk.

In 1988 they did co-captains and the Andre-Dino Bravo team was bad ass, those two along with Perfect, Race and Rude. I guess the Jake-Duggan team had the auto-draft on for the late round picks since they ended up with over the hill Ken Patera and jobber Scott Casey to go along with the always dependable Tito Santana.

To me at the time and now viewed Hogan's team as weak, sure he has Bigelow but Muraco, Ornfdorff & Patera weren't over as faces and borderline unwatchable in the ring. Now if it was a legit ass kicking contest that team would be one of the best, even if all Hogan could do was counter someone leg diving him ala Verne Gagne. Savage's team in 87 was loaded but Honky's team was pretty bad, Davis was a jobber at that point, Bass was low card but got the bump since he was willing to get his head shaved, I always liked Herc but he was all rest holds in this time frame, Harley who would have carried the load for this team was eliminated pretty quickly.

I re-watched The Great Train Robbery about a year ago, it’s a fun flick that’s really good. Connery and Donald Sutherland were a great combo and it’s a bummer they weren’t in more movies together.

Hogan wore the “mystery” belt at three house shows in mid October 1986.

3 was good but 1 & 2 are all time classics for me.

This season of Fargo is good but nowhere near seasons 1 & 2, I kind of wish I waited to binge it after they all aired on FX. Good Lord Bird is great!

Lawerence is good enough to not have it be that much of a strike against him, plus the owners and GM's of actual functioning franchises know the Jets are a total mess that should be avoided by any decent player.

I wonder how they're going to explain Screech and Lisa not being there "when the gang gets back together."

I can’t see them picking up and moving to Vegas plus aren’t the MGM and Mandalay Bay arena’s used for boxing? I bet they move up the road to Jacksonville and use their arena, they don’t have a NBA or NHL team and even in Florida it’s going to be along time before concerts are back.

That show has gone down hill since a great first episode, I never found Joe Rogan funny and I’ve always been perplexed on how anyone finds him funny.

The sports books don't always get it right and they got killed on Sunday. The Pittsburgh Steelers (+ 1) beating the Tennessee Titans 27-24 also was a big loss for multiple books in the early window. Over 70% of the bets at BetRivers and SugarHouse sportsbooks were on the Steelers. https://www.vsin.com/week-7-nfl-betting-report-horrible-weekend-for-sportsbooks/ https://www.gamingtoday.com/nfl/sportsbooks/article/93742-Books_take_it_on_chin_in_Week_7

First there's way way way too many moving parts to rig a football game, second there's way too much money on the line for the sports books to not know their shit and remember they're always adjusting the line due to amount of money being bet a certain way.

I bet he tattled right away without any prodding, you don't see Sting blurting out "Larry and Rob were cheating too" mere seconds after his wife found out about his escapades.

It was 2nd down so the Steelers had another shot at a TD, plus they were at the Cards 6 yard line so it would have been an easy FG on 4th down to tie it up and send it to OT.

The Texans going for 2 to try and make it a 9 point lead instead of 8 made no sense.

Sheik defended the title during that time, they normally just had whatever match he was booked in converted to a title match. I saw Sheiky Baby vs. Chief Jay Strongbow for the belt in Pittsburgh a few days before Hogan beat him at MSG.

Showtime seems to have picked up some small movies that were due to be released earlier this year so they're way off the radar. Olympic Dreams - I went into this with no expectations other than hearing that Tracktown an earlier film by Jeremy Teicher(director) and Alexi Pappas(star/writer) was decent and a good flick to watch on a flight. Olympic Dreams is set and shot inside the Olympic Village at the 2018 Winter Games, Pappas is a cross-country skier who competes early in the games who is dealing with "what to do next", Nick Kroll is a volunteer dentist and they end up bonding. It's way different than you think it's going to be and there's some conversations between them that are brutal in that I've had similar ones in the past kind of way. Pappas is an Olympic track athlete who competes for Greece(American but he dad is from Greece) and got funding for this movie from the IOC Arts Foundation, it's not a sugarcoated "yeah Olympics" type of movie it's a really good story set at the Olympics. The Jesus Rolls - I guess this is a "spin-off" to The Big Lebowski with John Turturro bringing back the Jesus character, it's set in New York State and begins when Jesus get's out of jail. It's not that good of a flick but its not horrible, there's some funny scenes and you can really tell Turturro enjoys playing the character. While watching it I got a "this seems really European" vibe and I was right since it's also kind of a remake of the 1974 French film Going Places, if someone watches this thinking it's going to be like Lebowski or even a straight up comedy they're going to be disappointed. This also has a lot of cameos some of which are great like Pete Davidson and some are bad like John Hamm. Tracktown - Not on Showtime but on Prime! I watched this since I really liked Olympic Dreams, Pappas plays a track athlete preparing to compete in the Olympic Trials in her hometown of Eugene, Oregon, and she has to take a day off before the big race. Decent little movie with Rachel Dratch totally brining it in a dramatic role.

Will Saban getting it be the jolt that causes most people to realize this is still a serious problem? Kind of like Tom Hanks back in March.

Yep! They really screwed up by not having a Week 18 to make these games up, the Steelers don’t have a bye this season due to the Titans being super spreaders. They’re also at a disadvantage for the Ravens game since that was supposed to be both teams bye weeks and now only the Ravens have a bye.

Hopefully in a few years they can do a follow up movie in the style of the GLOW documentary.

As someone who at 14 1/2 years old got into a fist fight with the older dude at a high school party, I feel a character like Stingray fits into the story. My only issue is that Paul Walter Houser plays the same character in every thing he's in which kind of ruins things, I feel the same way about Bert Kreischer who knocked Fleabag down a few pegs for me. They could be holding off on doing anything with Daniel's son until later seasons.

Why should the Steelers have to suffer because of the dumbass Titans? If the zombie Oilers can't field a team on Sunday they should forfeit.

Yep! They should have to forfeit any game they can't play in and have draft picks taken away.

Was it Terry Funk’s legit last match in Amarillo?
