S'all good. Nice comeback win for the Pistons.
I'm going to the Spurs game next Tuesday. Think I'm gonna pick me up a KCP jersey. He's become my favorite player on the team.

Ohhhh, man. I had the Pistons game on at work. We were fucking busy and it was still captivating. Pistons made a statement with this one. Reggie came out in the fourth overtime and said "NO. WE'RE WINNING THIS GODDAMN GAME." KCP killed it,and Jimmy Butler was feeling it, too. Dre put up 33 and 21, and damn near closed out the game in one of those overtimes. Fucking awesome game in a season full of them.

Here ya go. Perdition Temple. Dudes from Immolation and Angel Corpse. You pretty much know what this is gonna sound like, and that's totally okay.

Man, I could watch Meng and Barbarian kick Ricky Morton's ass all day.

He's watching Encino Man.

Heheheh, Joe Gomez.

GODDAMN.

Seriously, what a fucking parasite.

Hulk Hogan is a disingenuous piece of shit.
"I'm your BEST FRIEND, Macho! I'm gonna fend off Arn, brother, because your my BEST FRIEND, then I'm gonna hold it over ya, brother, then celebrate in the ring, man, like I just won the goddamn belt myself, brother, and by the way, I want the first title shot, brother!"
How did no one in the industry sit Hulk down and be like, "Dude, your character is kind of a sociopath and maybe even a narcissist, but definitely just a bad person altogether?"
He's the kind of 'friend' you cut out of your life once you shake off the chronic inebriation of your early 20's.

Man, Savage just countered a suplex on the outside by the Giant by clinging whatever body parts he could to the ropes. Damn, that was cool.

EDIT: Sgt Craig just got himself more over with me in 30 seconds asking Heenan to be his manager than 45-50% of dudes on WWF TV today. Why they are not doing the little things anymore, I just do not know...
EDIT 3: Man, Savage has been so unbelievable in his role. I wish his title run was longer. Hell, I wish he got a longer one in the later years when things were hot. Suffice to say, I can't help but wonder what would've happened if he stayed in the WWF and got to work with Michaels, Diesel, Razor, Bret etc. more.
Pittman ruled.
And yes, Savage was fucking tearing it up at this time. Vince was putting him out to pasture, but he clearly had so much left to offer and if he had lost a step in the ring, it's barely noticeable. Maybe he's not getting as much height on the double axehandles from the top, but that's nothing to sweat.
I just love how he's zero bullshit in every situation. He'll throw down at the drop of a hat and if he doesn't trust someone, ex. Luger, he comes right out and says it. I get why they eventually put him in the NWO, with the WWF connection, but damn, he should've stayed WCW.

Man, the Horsemen reunion is hilarious.
Flair - "Wanna get the Horsemen back together?"
Arn - "Sure. Let's fuck Sting over again, too."

^ Thank you!
Also, on my end...DERP.

I watched the first episode on the live stream, but I can't find anything from before November in the on demand section.
Sucks, cuz I totally forgot Sabu was even in WCW until this thread.
-
FWIW, I don't really dig too much of Flair's first WWF run. It's the promos and not being able to wear suits. Too much yelling without wearing sunglasses, not enough putting over Jim Crockett Promotions and the sport of professional wrestling.

As a lifelong heavy metal fan, I've always been kinda offended that pretty much every single metalhead gimmick that's ever been portrayed in wrestling paints us as morons who mosh and headbang in public places that aren't metal shows. I'm not kidding. I think the only time it's ever been done right is Bull Nakano wearing a Megadeth shirt and stomping the shit out of whoever.
I would always change the channel over to RAW whenever Regal or Finlay were on Nitro, except for when either of them were pushing Prince Iaukea around. I just didn't like either of them.
I've read a lot of crap on boards about The Road Warriors being awful workers. Yeah, I get the no selling thing. I don't care. I'll watch the shit out of their matches. For me, they pretty much personify pro wrestling. They were my favorites when I was a kid and the goddamn coolest thing going at the time, right up until I saw Muta do a moonsault on the Power Hour.

In Solitude - Sister: This is the best album that came out last year. This is the sound of a young band finding themselves. They've gone from King Diamond worship to something entirely their own. It's been out a year this October and I cannot get away from it.
Tribulation - The Formulas of Death: The second best album that came out last year. This a demanding listen, as it combines D-Beat, black metal, and psychedelic guitar work stretched out over an hour's worth of music, with some songs reaching the ten minute mark. I saw these guys live in Detroit last year opening up for In Solitude and Watain. They stole the show, and their poofy Martin Eric Ain shirts were fucking awesome.
Diocletian - Gesundrian: This album is totally fucking unreasonable. Relentless, pummeling war metal coming at ya from New Zealand. These guys killed it at Maryland Death Fest.

The Audio-Technica AT - LP120 USB Direct Drive has served me well. Comes equipped with a program to rip your vinyl into mp3. It's right at $250 on Amazon right now.

I... You mean someone might actually take Smith's contract?
And even give the Pistons something in return for him?
Seriously?
No, seriously?
Cause if we can clear the triple big logjam by moving him, then by all means resign Monroe.
Really.
God bless whoever bongs out harder than Joe Dumars.

Latest rumor...
One source insists nothing imminent, but I'm told Pistons and Kings have discussed a trade that would send Josh Smith to Sacramento
PLEASE, let this happen.
And if it doesn't, trade Monroe.
One of 'em has got to go.

Personally, I see Ambrose as Dally Winston from The Outsiders.
Chris Chambers ain't crazy. Ace is a scumbag, but he's also just a cheap, dime-store hood.
Dally Winston ran game on Cherry Valance. He jumped into a burning building to save his friends, then threatened to kill them if they ever did something that stupid again. Then he flipped his shit, knocked off a liquor store, and went down in a hail of cop bullets 'cuz his surrogate little brother died.

The Adam Rose gimmick was and is fucking awful. Fuck Russell Brand, and fuck Adam Rose.

To this day I still love watching WCW more than anything else in wrestling.
Same here. For me, WCW is professional wrestling. It's how it should look, sound and perform, even with all the dumb shit they pulled.
When is it OK to have a "2nd team"
in SPORTS
Posted
Oh, it's acceptable any time, so long as the team nearest and dearest to your heart comes first.
For instance, I fucking love the Detroit Pistons. The Bad Boys made me a basketball fan for life. I've been through all the highs and lows of that team ever since. Those godawful turquoise jerseys, the Ben Gordon era, Allen Iverson's cup of coffee, both championship runs, Scott Hastings, etc. Basically, I watch them when they suck, I watch them when they're just okay, and I flip my shit every game when they're good.
But if they're not playing or they get bounced out of the playoffs, San Antonio is the team I hang my hat on and root. Followed by the OKC Thunder and Golden State. I like teams that play good, sound, fundamental, aesthetically pleasing basketball. I'm into great passing and great defense. I like teams that are teams in the truest sense of the word. There's an artistry to basketball, and when a team plays the right way and plays like a team, there are few things cooler in the world. So if it ain't the Pistons, it's team of that ilk.
