  1. Are people still watching this?  I thought last nights episode was probably the best of the show so far. Sonya is growing on me because they are starting to put her in situations where her abruptness is fresh air.  I hope we get more scenes of her bewildering FBI agents and that dickhead reporter.

     

    Linder continues to be the most fascinating character, but Fausto is a close 2nd.

  2. I agree. I just keep getting that feeling that comes before they fuck something up. I know it well.

     

    But I'll try to be positive. 

     

    I know you haven't been watching very much, but the way they have been using him in the ring really makes up for the hit and miss stuff outside of it.  He tapped Orton out to close a Raw, beat The Shield in a 6 man tag, gauntlet match etc etc.  

     

    I think they know what they have.  Vince is really mucking up everything he touches right now, so I don't think the beard is here segment is a good indicator.

     

    Seriously, Vince has been worse than Steph over the last month and Steph is horrible. 

  3. That Punk/Axel match was a lot of fun and the brawl after was pretty much insane.  Best segment.  "Paul, say something stupid!" is right up there with "I don't like people, John."  Lesnar is something else,  He looks like he is one slip up away from losing it on the mic, and then he will surprise you with something brilliant.

     

    Good build up for the top of the card.  Cena's promo was better than Bryans, but I did really like the ponytail for some reason! Vince's dance/strut and everything after really clicked in the opening segment, but they took too long to get there.  It definitely wasn't one of Vince's best performances.

     

    It's totally not going to happen, but Wyatt/Kane in an Inferno match just writes itself.  Harper and the other guy walking through fire to help Bray is such a money moment.

  4. Surprised how seriously everyone is taking that McMahon backstage bit.  I thought it was just Vince making fun of himself and winking at the fans for his obsessions with big juiceheads,

     

     

    That is the thing, though.  Cena is the perfect Vince guy and they have played him up as the perfect Vince guy for years.  What is throwing most people off is the sudden anti-Cena stuff out of nowhere.

  5. I actually had a completely different take on the Ruiz and the widow stuff.  The widow clearly doesn't grasp how much danger she is in, but she isn't oblivious to it either.  She recognizes Ruiz as an honest cop because he refused money on the bridge when he let them pass and, due to the way she made her fortune, it seems she isn't above sleeping with someone to get what she wants.  In this case, I would say she wants a little security or protection.  From his perspective, it is sort of implied that he gets around a little bit (flirty guy, his wife was jealous of Sonya).  I would bet on Ruiz eventually getting mixed up in the business with the tunnel.

  6. Yeah, they kind of mucked up his morality a little bit.  I didn't really mind Ruiz banging the widow, but the whole trying to break into bearded creepy guys trailer thing just seemed way off.

  7. Cutler > Romo.

     

    Also, for all you dickheads who are taking that Fitzpatrick post way out of context.  Look up Cutler's 4th quarter stats with the Bears in relation to Fitzpatrick.  Also, use common sense and understand that those similar stats have been accumulated under completely different circumstances.  Look at the Win %.  Cutler spends more time playing with the lead, while Fitz was constantly padding his stats (obviously not Matt Stafford levels of stat padding, but close) in the 4th quarter trying to make a desperate comeback.  Look at all of those 4th Q interceptions. 

     

    Or.. you know, ignore stats completely and check youtube for clips of Fitz throwing 3 yards short of his receivers. There is probably a compilation out there that is 12 hours long.

     

    EDIT:  WOOO! I'm ready for football!!!

  8. So I know the Lions have never been to a Superbowl, but I looked it up anyways.  Turns out their post-season record in the Superbowl Era is 1-10!  Why even use jokes when the truth is so funny?

  9. Heat/Bulls in Miami on opening day!  The Heat ring ceremony and the Rose return will surely make this one extra chippy.   I'm setting the over/under at 4 total techs, 5 if Joey Crawford is working.

  10. Didn't like episode three as much as I liked the first two.  Creepy bearded guy being questioned by Ruiz was a fun moment, though.  I feel like those are the two best performances so it was fun to see the interaction.
