I mean, he was over during the Attitude Era, but always seemed to get saddled with goofy shit rather than being an out and out ass kicker - that last gasp gimmick with Grandmaster Sexay was cringe No, he wouldn't get over today, because they wouldn't even try to get him over. During the Attitude Era, the WWF at least tried to find something for everyone to do. These days, once you fall below a certain level in the midcard ("The Titus Line," if you weel), you're just there to fill time. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Technico Support Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 4 hours ago, Mickie Zeidler said: Rogan's assertions about bone density, being "built different," and so on have no basis in science. As medical professionals have stated, hormone replacement therapy has a way of adjusting bone density, muscle mass, and eroding other advantages trans athletes may have. Sadly, the world seems far more interested to hear what a washed up stand-up comedian has to say than actual medical professionals, or sports governing bodies like the IOC and NCAA that have studied these issues. Joe Rogan also believes in chemtrails and any number of other crackpot conspiracy theories. So yeah, not really the guy to listen to when it comes to science.

He's gone out of his way to debunk it and doesn't know why idiots like his idiot friend Eddie Bravo mistake the contrails from an airplane for chemtrails.

(BP) Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 The only Rogan take off the top of my head that I'm even familiar with is his advocacy for DMT use. I'd probably never smoke it, but I've tried to access it through binaural meditation with pretty wild results. I'm sure he has all sorts of dumb ideas though. I've only caught him on other people's podcasts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kropotkin's Beard Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 12 hours ago, Casey said: I saw no outrage directed towards Miesha Tate for saying she wouldn’t fight Fallon Fox due to physical advantages since she was born as a man. Or Matt Mitrione for calling her an “it”. Or Joe Rogan for expressing the same doubts as Tate did. but Rousey is more famous than all of them, so she gets the flak for her opinion (which is pretty much the same as Tate, Rogan and even Dana White). I assure you, as someone who was deep into following MMA at the time Fallon Fox was fighting that there was plenty of outrage at Mitrione at the time. And also a lot of people challenged Tate & Rogan for their takes as not being scientific. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She's the worst. Fuck that transphobic bitch. The Sandy Hook thing is really upsetting to me, I had no idea about that. A lot of friends of mine in CT went to high school with one of the teachers who died. That certainly changes my opinion of her a bit. 15 minutes ago, (BP) said: The only Rogan take off the top of my head that I'm even familiar with is his advocacy for DMT use.

Spaceman Spiff Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 5 hours ago, Casey said: Do I trust you two and give it a try, or stick to my guns and not watch because I see Andy Dick is a featured character. The choices. Andy Dick's character is sooooooooooo the opposite of real life Andy Dick. I am still crushing on Maura Tierney these many, many years later. Keep in mind, though, the pilot episode is pretty tonally different than the rest of the series. Matthew is definitely not the Matthew of the rest of the series, & Jimmy James isn't quite Jimmy James. Not to mention they switch out the actress playing Katherine as well as the handyman character, which becomes the much better Joe Garelli ("your last name is Garelli?") played by Rogan. There are very few things I have laughed harder at than Bill giving an artistic critique of Beth's naked-pics-but-with-a-bag-over-her-head, then sidling up next to Matthew to let him know what's going on (skip to about 14:30 for the scene).

Beech27 Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 A message board is a curated space, which none of us have an inalienable right to access. By signing up, we consent to moderation. Terms of use is a pretty fundamental concept, that is very clearly not censorship. But that isn't even what's happening here, near as I can tell. People are calling bigotry what it is. If someone has a right to say stupid and/or awful things, people have a right (maybe an obligation) to call them on it. And while "sincerely held beliefs" might have legal weight, that doesn't render them beyond criticism--it's a two-way street. If Rousey, or someone else, sincerely believes transphobic shit, and I sincerely believe she's an bigot because of it, I'm not wrong for saying so. (And while we're at it, "Sandy Hook happened as reported by reputable news outlets" is fact; believing otherwise is wrong, if we're to believe in an objectively observable universe in which verifiable truth exists.) 13 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig H Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 What a spectacular flame out. I won't be heartbroken by his absence. Anyway. Cena's in the Duke Nukem movie that came along about 15 years too late, just like the most recent DN video game. I'm sure the movie will do just as poorly. I guess good for Cena for finding a way out of wrestling even if he is likely never going to approach the level the Rock is on unless he co-stars with the Rock in something. Hell, put Cena in that Hobbs and Shaw spinoff movie. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tromatagon Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 The thing with Cena is that a lot of dudes aren't FUCK YEAH JOHN CENA as much as girls and kids, and when he does movies for those demos it works great. Duke Nukem isn't for those demos really. It's for the people that buy expensive-ass tickets specifically to boo John Cena and that doesn't work in movie theaters. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig H Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 That's also a good point. And of the kids in Cena's demo that are gamers, I'm guessing it's probably less than 10% that give a shit about DN. It's all Fortnite and other shit now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess maybe he could have asked the question differently, but saying "in time' and meaning "eventually" is not that uncommon. For one thing, it's hard to misunderstand the question because, usually, people don't walk up to you and ask you if you can time travel. Although I don't follow MMA hardly at all. Are time traveling MMA fighters common? I understood exactly what Golic was asking. I'm guessing most people would understand the question immediately. I'm kinda hoping Rousey was just nervous, cause otherwise.... woof. I'm really hoping she's not that dumb. And Golic more or less tried to rephrase when he asked her if she'd go back to MMA and Rousey woodenly replied "I don't time travel". I'm sure Golic was confused on that point, so glad she set him straight. I think I liked Rousey better when i knew hardly anything about her and couldn't spell her first name right (just realized this morning that there's no h in it.). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
