RIPPA

Well at least being up stupidly early affords me the time to finally start this thread and as per usual - this will be all over the fucking place Stranger Than Fiction is one of those movies that I love despite knowing that it is far from perfect. For whatever reason it just hits some special notes for me so I will watch it pretty much anytime it comes on. The biggest thing about it - which is probably the "selling" point for someone who has never seen it - is that this is basically Will Ferrell as a normal person (well normal being a relative term since Harold Crick clearly has his own issues.) It's the over the top clown Ferrell which can be a huge turnoff to some people (like this is the only Will Ferrell movie that my wife likes.) and this is far from it. The way the relationship between Harold and Ana Pascal develops is so nice. From when she clearly hates him to her being bemused by him (I loved that she only accepted his apology because he "stammered") to true connection. And the delivering flours bit was fucking brilliant. Like "I am so fucking pissed that something like that never ever fucking crossed my brain" pissed. God Marc Forster has a WAR 6-man like director career - Monster's Ball then Finding Neverland. STF then the Kite Runner then Quantum of Solace. And then toss in World War Z. Complete aside - I never knew Ferrell was nominated for a Golden Globe for this. Good for him. Yeah - again - I just hope folks get enjoyment out of this. I am officially rambling.

Okay - I am not locking the thread but the problem was taken care of but still replying to his posts is really going to infuriate me and probably earn you a time out. Because there is nothing I like more than fucking having to fucking ban people at fucking 4:30 in the god damn morning Grr....

Thanks, Phil. I'll ask him next time I talk to him. There was a Melraz09 waiting to be validated so I just approved it. I have a feeling that was him - if so, he is now good to go

If you tell me what name Mel is trying to register under... assuming it's not Melraz - I can be on the lookout for it to make sure it gets validated

Wiki says he retired due to suffering multiple concussions. Not sure if that is actually true but yeah...

Something made me think of Jason Cross recently but I am totally spacing on what it was. I am guessing his name popped up on the X-Division tapes I just got from TNA. God the NWA Wildside stuff was over 10 fucking years ago. http://youtu.be/VsfIYMJ0qn8

Fuck all of y'all

Just to put a bow in this - Yahoo has a detailed breakdown of the Radio Shack Ad

Jae - you know better than to use logic

Just for the record - in scrolling through the DVDVR feed just now (to see what I missed after I fell asleep) according to PWI - the crowd was chanting for Emma before that segment started so who knows. Also this made me really laugh

It's not a guy, Rippa. It's a "contingent" or a "crew." You need to pay closer attention to this stuff. You're not the boss of me!

Roman Reigns Tweeted that saying "new battle scar' (it's spoilerized for size. Nothing graphic)

Yup

I definitely will be on again to make up for the lack of anything from yesterday... well at least until the weather knocks out my internet again. Fucking Comcast...

Also - I was going to say that I find it really odd that a whole lot of people are rejecting a gimmick/wrestler after one appearance in front of a shitty crowd but God forbid you get labelled as a "Wait and See Guy" around here.

Probably the easiest starting point Wrestler of the Day: EMMA

I realized that I never kinda laid out my evolution on Emma and now with the new found attention due to RAW - it is easier for me to put it here. I remember on the old board - I posted a GIF of Emma screwing up the flip into the ring and I was like all "HA! HA!" and folks pointed out that it was on purpose and she was doing a kultz/bad dancing gimmick. Then I started watching NXT and I was like "God Dammit - this should be making me chuckle but it is" THEN Emma started getting full matches and I was all "Well she can wrestle AND do all the goofy stuff" and I was all in.

What was the total count? 4 hard way juices in the the first hour?

They buried both their secondary titles last night. Cole made some off-hand comment about Ambrose holding the US belt for 6 months or whatever and Lawler chimed in with something along the lines of, "Yeah, and when was the last time he had a title match? It's easy to be champ when you never defend it." Gotta love that Lawler often can't remember what he saw two weeks ago but the one time does manage to pay attention it winds up being to someone's detriment. I think it was JBL who actually said that but yeah - I heard that was like "Boy - Vince must be pissed off about something tonight."

Based on the videos... he is way more mobile than me I miss trading Eli and Tim Hasselbeck and using J-Load as my QB in Madden

Omaha can go screw I still haven't figured out this whole amnesia thing that happens for the talent in regards to NXT. It's like they all forget it exists once they are called up. Obviously they beat the JBL is NXT commissioner but doesn't know anyone thing into the ground but Summer Rae seemingly acting like she had no idea who Emma was weird. It's like Michael Cole is the only one who can see the Ultimate Warrior in the mirror. Oh and I guess they gave up on that whole "Make the IC title mean something again" thing. Poor poor Big E.

Not a good night for gaming. Two straight matches of JT blowing up the thing we were supposed to retrieve and then my internet shitting the bed during the next.
