Also needs a shirt or singlet to hide his sadface torso.

Flair is debating whether to take off with the belt and pawn it, but wonders if the walking boot would hinder his escape.
Also, Race looks like Michael Rooker.

Bray Wyatt needs to adopt using fireballs...and use the Asiatic spike already.
Neither of those things would make it past sponsors and/or the network.
Which is pretty silly if you think about it for more than a second.

I wonder if the zombies were hungry again an hour later.
HIIYOOOOO

Most of WWE's best stuff seems like it isn't scripted. Maybe that should be hint to somebody at the top, but it won't be. Kevin Steen is awesome. He's everything a pro wrestler should be.
I sometimes only watch Raw for Steen segments. He is easily in my top 5 and completely understands pro wrestling.

"Milhouse, Milhouse..."
That was awesome, and I somehow I get the impression it wasn't even scripted.

Paranormal Activity was absolute buttshit
I give the first movie props for addressing the old Eddie Murphy quip of why don't white people simply leave a haunted house when ghosts appear and noting that the entity has stalked Katie's family for years and follows the members of the family wherever they go.
LOL
"Mr. Murphy, didn't you try to save your daughter?"
"Yeah, I'm a man and shit. I changed the channel, shit didn't work, I got the fuck out."

I wonder if it wasn't [redacted] who we see being eaten but actually [redacted], who shot himself and fell on top of him. Maybe [you know] was underneath [that guy], who was actually the one being eaten.
It would be a bit of a cop out but one I'm sure many who watch the show would be fine with.

Yes he does.

I've been a wrestling fan since just before Mania 1. I was a very casual MMA fan for a little while until I grew up a bit and realized it was meathead bullshit and that a sport where the object of it -- not a side effect but the actual object of the sport -- was to damage another human being was just morally wrong to me. Doubly so for boxing, which is just gross and takes away any slight "protections that the rules of MMA offer.
I'm waiting for Dave to cover the All-Valley Karate Tournament. I hear Daniel LaRusso is quite the draw, a real whitemeat babyface.

I suspect part of it is that scrambling quarterbacks just, in general, are less successful in the NFL. None has ever won a Super Bowl. The closest you could get would be Steve Young and he was very definitely a pocket passer.
Russell Wilson won a Super Bowl...
In reference to the race argument and which black guys are acceptable vs which aren't:
To paraphrase the great Negrodamus, Russell Wilson makes Bryant Gumbel look like Malcolm X.

Black Swan?

"Marty Scrull?" Is he a shape changer?

That's why it's depressing. People didn't develop this fear of staying home when sick naturally. It's a learned behavior.
Yeah, this. I always feel bad for calling out and my boss is such a dick about it. He's not overt about it, he just doesn't respond when I email to call out sick. The bitch-ass passive aggressive treatment. Fuck that guy. When the guys who work under me call out, I make damn sure to let them know it's no big deal and I tell them I hope they feel better. I don't even care if they're not sick; everybody has a bank of PTO and it's their right to use it. It's not hard to treat your employees with a modicum of decency.
EDIT: Holy shit, I should just count my blessings after reading offspring's post. Glad your kid is better and that you found a better job, dude. That shit is awful.

LOL Come on man I qualified the shit out of that paragraph!
Seriously, you can't understand until you see nine years of 3rd and 4 at the 25, run for 2 yards and kick a FG, hope the defense can hold. Most skittish coach I've ever seen.

Some guys aren't afforded the same opportunities. Look at Colin Kaepernick. I don't think he'll ever be a great QB at this point (and maybe they should be open to finding someone else) but his career QB rating is solid, he took his team to the Super Bowl, he was a play away from another Super Bowl. Yeah, he's struggled at times this season. He had one of the most hideous games I've ever seen. But he's also had three games where he's thrown over 300 yards with 2 td and 0 interceptions. He had to deal with the Harbaugh circus last year. This year the offensive line is terrible. There's a lot going on there.
If he were someone else with the exact same resume he'd probably be given some leeway but for whatever reason there are people in the media that want him out of football completely. If you watched the game with the Ravens this past week he was playing really well and one of the announcers was still destroying him. Flacco was playing terribly but they didn't say much about that.
The amount of bullshit coming from the announcers re: Kaepernick this past Sunday was astounding. The ownership lets the team go to shit all around him and suddenly the narrative is he's a bad QB in need of coaching and in-depth analysis of every ball he's ever thrown? Riiiight. And you're spot on with the Flacco comparison. Some of the passes he threw, including that floater interception, were so fucking ponderous, and nobody is talking about him needing reprogramming.
Kaepernick is not RG3, a guy whose skills diminished via injuries and loss of confidence. He's a guy whose performance has diminished because the owners' long term plan to make a shitload of money paid off and now there's no need to have a good team anymore.

I've seen them all and legit forgot there was a Paranormal Activity 4 until I saw it listed on my cable guide yesterday. Also, I did enjoy The Marked Ones, aka The Mexorcist.

It always amazes that NASCAR is able to sell ads at the rate that they do. NASCAR fans have a negative stereotype in pop culture, a worse stereotype than even wrestling fans.
No way does NASCAR have a worse stigma than pro wrestling. Madison Avenue thinks both fanbases are hicks but they think wrestling fans are dumb hicks because, in their mind, we think it's real. I don't watch NASCAR but I imagine they get better advertisers than Raw.
I work in an office and there's another wrestling fan in my department. Neither of us mention our fandom to anybody. You think NASCAR fans do that?

Still working my way through. Night 2 is GREAT. Holy shit Tommy End vs Drew Gulak was something else. Realistic (by wrestling standards), weird, and it ended out of nowhere with a punch.
Any news at all on the next show?
-
I forgot about Ray Rice! Damn.
Also Brian Billick. He coached the Ravens for 9 seasons. It's hard to complain because we got a Super Bowl out of it but oh man was his shit boring. One Super Bowl vs 9 seasons of dull-ass game management football. "Oh shit we're inside the 30, better calm down and play it safe, don't want to risk losing that field goal by going for a TD."

I saw a Deadspin post about Steve Smith and the ball got rolling. You might be faithful to your team but, like your family, that doesn't mean you need to like them all. So who plays for your team, past or present, that you hate or at least dislike a good deal?
For me, as a Ravens fan (yeah yeah I know), it's Ray Lewis and, to a lesser extent, Steve Smith Sr.
Lewis because he's a sanctimonious ass who likely killed a dude, celebrated constantly as a player even when making routine plays when the team was down on the scoreboard, and generally made everything about him. Fuck that guy.
Smith because he's constantly talking shit and seems angry at everyone, while making some outstanding catches and, at the same time, dropping balls he should be catching easily. If you're talking shit that much, you better be consistently amazing.
BONUS ROUND: Speaking of being inconsistant, I really dislike Joe Flacco. Here's a guy who, if not for a streak of brilliance in a contract year that ended with a Super Bowl win, wouldn't even be on the team right now. One fewer crazy pass against Denver and he'd be playing for Jacksonville today. He is maddeningly inconsistent. One play he'll make an amazing deep pass and the next he'll float a duck right to an opposing safety. I saw him described once as "one of those superheroes who can't control his powers." That sounds about right. Also, he always has this hangdog, sadface that makes him look like he has zero fire at all. Fuck, dude, get up for the fucking game and look like you want it.
Anyway, what you got?

That's why I stopped watching. I figure it's just more healthy to not keep tuning in to something that just gets my hopes up then pisses me off. Legit makes me feel stupid for being invested in the company for so long. I think WM was the last straw because of the whole retcon nature of the Sting/HHH match. Like "Hey man all this shit you watched and remember like a fucking elephant doesn't matter. Suck our dicks"
Lucha Underground is my promotion now so I'm really fucking glad it's back
Yeah, this, just swap PWG for LU. I barely watch Raw ever and I just get mad listening to Dave & Bryan recap it. I almost drove the car off the road when they discussed World champ Rollins CHASING U.S. champ Cena and jobbing.
