Oh. Neato. Have not been invoked in ages. How come you invoked me, my tentacled friend? Anything in particular you (or anyone) would like me to weigh in on? I still generally watch SESE (Some Elite Sports Entertainment) but have mostly lost my passion for it (for what it has become). The positive things I have to say (about the actual matches, in particular about the insane runs Bryan, Kingston, Timeless, etc etc are on and how it's great to see Shibata back but I hope he's careful etc etc) all seem obvious enough that I don't feel like they'd add anything to the conversation. My complaints feel kind of obvious and repetitive to me and I have zero desire to piss on the parade of everyone who is enjoyng the sports entertainmentification of my once-beloved big goofy indie professional wrestling promotion. But since I have been invoked, feel free to ask me anything while I am here.

Looking over the stat lines of Game 3 and thought this was mildly interesting. Denver FG 44-90 and 5 of those were three pointers. Lakers FG 44-90 and 5 of those were three pointers.

he should show up in a larger neck brace tomorrow night and an even larger one on Saturday

Can't see Manchester City slipping up to four Premier League titles in a row. Two horse race between Manchester City and Arsenal but Arsenal need City to drop points.

Yes and hope so. GYV should have won the NXT Tag Team Championship and Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic.

I did it early in my funeral career. I had to pour a saw dust like powder to absorb the liquids in a garbage bag. I had to cut the viscera to let the gasses out. I was sweating profusely, wretching as my glasses almost slid down my face in the bag of viscera.

On the opposite side of things, financing The Godfather really padded my my retirement account.

I seem to be in the minority of Bears fans in that I'm not sold on Caleb Williams being the guy. I guess it's too much bad QB play I've seen over the years.

I was like 16 and I sent Matilda a get well card.

Don't care the Bills traded down, not thrilled they helped the Chiefs of all teams get the player they wanted in the process.

We're lucky to have an owner/promoter that loves wrestling as much as Coach Tony K.

McAfee is loving it hahaha https://twitter.com/PatMcAfeeShow/status/1783692640942207373

This is the good stuff. Tony keeping kayfabe alive at the NFL Draft and Rich Eisen putting the angle over. https://twitter.com/tde_gif/status/1783691205399716178

I've been sitting on that joke for nearly a decade and this is the thanks I get.

Tony Khan wearing a neck brace, for real this time https://pbs.twimg.com/media/GMDzGgZWMAAXvUr?format=jpg&name=small

Holy shit he did. https://twitter.com/tde_gif/status/1783691205399716178?t=YfhMGWpPn1DaoZtEXb37gw&s=19 Oh, right the draft itself. First third played out like many expected though it's to see some defensive picks recently.

HE WORE A NECKBRACE.

I read Segunda Caida and I don't want to dog you on anything, but there have been Elite matches that I think you would have... liked. Kenny, in particular. I get the blinders, just for the sheer amount of wrestling you consume and write about. I tried to do it last year stepping in for DEAN I couldn't come close. I guess... I wonder, who have you come around on? Who have been the anti-DVDVR Kobashi/Toyota/Angle Psychologicaly Deficient types who you've learned to love? Maybe the GYV have something in common with those you've forgiven. I'm not even a big fan of theirs but I don't want anybody missing out, y'know?

From AEW Dynamite episode 238 For the IWGP World Heavyweight Championship Jon Moxley (c) vs Powerhouse Hobbs https://youtu.be/OzzbfGqXF8w?si=ggn1cowbf-1naArH

From women's cricket , the indonesian teenager Rohmalia Rohmalia had a good game in the fifth t20I vs Mongolia .. 3.2 overs, 7-0. That is, if you're using the Australian scoring nomenclature: That's right.. she bowled 3.2 overs, didn't give up a run, and got 7 wickets. Most bowlers couldn't get seven wickets in 19 balls if they were bowling without a batsman..

Also on the Spo conversation, on the Lebron/JJ podcast, Lebron directly gave Spoelstra credit for coming up with the game plan that changed their offense to be more effective. Lots of talking heads at the time were busy talking about "who is Batman" and "who is Robin" and "how do these three coexist" etc etc. Erik Spoelstra came in, at a time when people were saying he was on the hot seat, and said to three superstars "Here's what you're going to do." and it worked. Of course it helped that Chris Bosh was willing and capable to adjust his game to accommodate. Miami is an attractive enough town for players that he probably won't spend long stretches without talent. I don't know if he'll be Pop Tier, but he'll probably be Top 10 before it's over.

Maybe it's because I'm stoned, but I'd love a DSOTR-spinoff where Haku is shown footage of events throughout history and we watch him laugh.

This is why I ask both questions.
