  1. The IMDB page has a "Gary Hart lookalike" listing, so there's that. Why shoehorn Ferrell into a Freebirds biopic when you could have him for Flair's?
  2. I can't exactly call it a win for AEW, but you can absolutely say WWE's fears about the NXT brand got exposed, and exposed badly. AEW was handicapped from the off by running on a different night, even with a very strong show on paper. Logically they were going to lose a big chunk of their audience... so what did WWE do? They brought in ELEVEN folks from the main roster by my count (Asuka, Balor, Dominik, Priest, Ripley, Cody, Knight, Butch, Holland, Heyman, Shotzi), teased Roman, then added Cena for good measure... and THEN added Undertaker at the last minute because they felt the need to go glass-parking-lot for this one. Sure they popped a rating for the night, but at what cost? Was it worth the "win" to tell the world they have no faith in that roster against anything resembling a threat? And what happens next week when those folks are gone?
  3. Brenda Tracy was a sexual assault survivor. I think Bill Cosby is more of an expert on the subject.
  4. I know the Eagles fans typically travel well, but this sounds like a home game for Philly. Seriously like a 70-30 crowd for them.
  5. Boy howdy did I pick the right week to take Miami.
  6. Wazzu holds them off to claim the Pac-2 championship!
  7. The Coogs had run up the score on Illinois awhile back (EDIT: actually the week before) as well. I remember it because Moeller mentioned them in that same presser and said something to the effect of "you don't do that to a Big 10 school."
  8. If you took Sac State at +3.5 and had the under (57.5), that play is a double whammy of bad beats. Also, seek professional help.
  9. I guess the question is this. WAR - what is it good for?
  10. Reading around, it sounds like Ali's contract simply expired and they didn't renew. So theoretically he could show up anywhere immediately.
  11. As Madman Fulton glances around uneasily...
  12. Shelton, absolutely. Ziggler, not so much. His WWE presentation was all about being a showman and "having great matches" which pretty much goes against the entire BCC ethos. Ali OTOH would be a solid choice... all you need is for BD to endorse/fast-track him for the group. I imagine Shelton could go back to Japan as well.
  13. I have no horse in the race but I absolutely love how Coach Prime has completely revitalized that deader-than-disco Buffs program. They are turning into must-see TV. Meanwhile, Iowa State gets hosed by the refs at Ohio after they blow the call on a late field goal try.
  14. THE HANSHIN TIGERS ARE YOUR CENTRAL LEAGUE CHAMPIONS! First pennant since 2005.
  15. The theater ticket group my mom subscribes to is offering $5 ducats for Grand Slam (yes, FIVE DOLLARS). Unfortunately they currently require ID and I'm not passing for an octogenarian woman any time soon.
  16. Meanwhile in the FCS, Drake drops a close one to Northwestern. No, sillies, not THAT Northwestern. The Raiders are the defending NAIA national champions, but even so.
  17. This is soooooo cute. Love Christian breaking character for her at the end.
  18. The stat or that ridiculous graphics package?
  19. My turn: Mountain West Conference absorbs Oregon State and Wazzu... and the Pac-12 name.
