You can be un-torn, because the Wyatt family debuted in Baltimore.

How would Philly wrestling fans have reacted to, say, a tag team with a flamboyantly gay gimmick in ECW?

But they totally boo him UNTIL he says We the People. I think people are just conditioned to say people's catch phrases. They were doing it with the Rock when he was heel. Wrestling fans just can't stop themselves when they see something they know. It's like they get to use this horribly useless knowledge for once in their lives. I sat next to a guy at DGUSA show who called the name of every fucking move in every match. He was alone and was speaking to no one in particular. He just had to say it because maybe someone would go "Oh hey, you know wrestling things, let's be friends."I don't remember where I was going with this. You were going to make a Rain Man reference, then make fun of Philly fans.

I'm kind of rooting for an embarrassing train-wreck response. Maybe Philly fans can chant "This is awesome!!!" during a beatdown of Darren Young. Then, Cena can make the save and have people boo him while makes a pro-gay "Be a star" promo. And, yes, I am insane. And unmedicated.

Maybe Titus O'Neil was conditioned to be supportive of homosexuals because his uncle, Rufus "Pancake" Patterson is related to Pat Patterson.

More look down on it because of shit like Billy and Chuck than in spite of it. Anyway, good on Darren for going public. Gotta love the irony in the doppelganger of John Cena, reputed to be one of the E's biggest man-whores, happening to be gay. Darren Young is truly the Anti-Matter Universe version of Cena. Are you suggesting that all gay men are sex-crazed maniacs who chase dick the way Cena chases tail?

Exactly. The best thing is that he just remain Darren Young. No wild changes where one week he's bland and the next week he's suddenly like Orlando Jordan squirting cream onto his chest. You don't have to make him squirting cream on his chest to make him a "gay" character. You can just make him a vain pretty boy who is obsessed with his hair and looks and who tends to wear flamboyantly-colored gear to the ring and who gives the divas a bunch of fashion advice backstage.

Just for you, they will have Daniel Bryan make Cena tap, but HHH will be distracted by Brad Maddox so he doesn't see it, and the match ends up continuing.

What about a beat-down by the Wyatt family, with Darren Young being tied up and dragged behind a pickup, James Byrd style (except he survives). The tide turns when libertarian superhero Kane returns from filming his movie sequel and forges an unlikely alliance with the Prime Time Players.

Maybe they can have Paul Heyman try to recruit the PTPs. Heyman gives off this sort of creepy gay subtext in his dealings with Lesnar and Punk, Heyman could go after them in a way that allows some people in the audience to interpret lust as a motivation. They can accept his overtures or they spurn him and Heyman brings in another tag team to take them out. Either way, they become part of a Team Punk vs Team Heyman traditional Survivor Series match. Maybe Darren Young can assault CM Punk, then play the footage of Punk calling a fan a "homo" as justification.

Somewhere, Orlando Jordan is throwing things, saying this should be his spot.

I'm not sure Jae, it kind of looks like an inverted Indian Deathlock. Would one call it that? Is this the move you are talking about:

I'm fine with this except the face turn. That would be terrible. PTP are fun because their gimmick is obnoxious and arrogant making them the perfect heels. Isn't being obnoxious and arrogant what leads to some heels being cheered? I say, give them a higher-profile role and let the fans decide. What should they do if the fans end up really wanting to cheer Darren Young because of this? Are there places he will get an interesting reception, such as Philly?

I don't expect her to say anything interesting. I'm more interested in seeing if other Republicans try to make noise over it.

Now I really want to see Linda MacMahon run for office again, just to see if this comes up.

With the success of Total Divas on E!, I guess they were looking for someone to headline a second reality show on Bravo.

Aren't they doing a population study to determine baseline HGH levels, so wouldn't a player using HGH want the baseline to be as high as possible?

Maybe people should send gmail invites to that juno account.

I did not watch. Can you elaborate on this, preferably in the form of screencaps?

Player-coaches are not allowed under the CBA.Wait wait wait....WHY? If there is any sport that would work with Player/Coaches that isn't baseball it's basketball....what reason wouldn't they be aloud?Player coaches are not allowed in the NBA because the ability to pay a coaching salary separate from the player salary would be a circumvention of the salary cap.So don't pay him a coaching salary He can be an unofficial coach, the way Avery Johnson was at the end of his career with the Mavericks. There are probably some league rules involving coaches' contracts that make it impossible to have an unpaid person with an official title as coach.

Well, Cena off TV for two weeks before they panic, maybe. It depends on if he really is going to have elbow surgery and how long it will be before he can wrestle.

I think Cena off of TV until the next PPV and Orton ducking Bryan for as long as they can stretch it out without killing the crowd would make some sense.
