  1. Ross absolutely losing it and shitting all over that match would be worth the price of the show alone.  "Another superkick?  Well if the first 23 didn't put him away, I guess the 24th might." 

     

    Do the Bucks do the handspring backrake outside PWG?  Because I'd love to hear JR call that.

  2. Damn, these writers aren't fucking around as far as burning through plot points go.  I thought they'd drag out Eugene's story, with him keeping up the charade, much longer than they did.

     

    I'm actually enjoying episodes being divided among the three different stories (Abraham's group, Rick's group and Beth at the hospital) as well.  Dwelling on one group could easily become Hershel's Farm all over again.

     

    Also, Doctor Mullet killing the walkers with the firehose was dope.  Physics be damned because if they have the structural integrity of rotten fruit how can they walk?  But still, it looked awesome so fuck it.

  3. Thanks, guys.  I usually buy draft beer or fountain soda so I've never heard of the bottle cap rule before.  I guess if I want to throw a dangerous object at M&T Bank Stadium, I'll stick to the stale food they sell instead.

  4. I thought of this thread yesterday at the Ravens game.  I bought a bottled water and the person who served it to me at the concessions stand immediately opened it and threw the cap in the trash.  I told her I needed the cap and she told me they had to throw them away due to "league rules." 

     

    Can some of the more legally-minded among us please explain why the league might have rules against giving me the bottle cap?  All I can think of is that a closed bottle makes a better projectile.

  5. I only watch the PPVs, and sometimes I skip those as well, so I haven't really watched WWE in a bit.  Yesterday I watched the two cell matches from this PPV and can someone please tell me when they started ZOOMING IN UPON THE IMPACT OF EVERY FUCKING OFFENSIVE MOVE?  And when they're not zooming, they are still moving the cameras around so they're really "floaty."  Does the director of the show have ADD?  What the hell is going on?  This shit is making me develop late onset Epilepsy.

  6. I was at the outdoor minor league baseball stadium show in Frederick, MD where they tried out the gimmick -- this was when he was fresh from OVW and wearing the horns.  Just as he finished his promo, thunder and lightning hit and it started pouring down rain.  Pretty great timing but I'll always blame him for ruining the show.

  7. Some people have very specific things that bug them.  Dre considers any criticism of Dunn to be beyond the pale annoying smart mark behavior because, I guess, we can't actually prove any of the multitude of awful Dunn stories.  For example, none of us were actually in the room when Dunn helped tank the Invasion angle by complaining to Vince that "their guys" shouldn't beat "our guys."  So we shouldn't talk about Dunn because we weren't there and don't know the truth despite many many stories from interviews and the like essentially verifying it.

  8. I have no issue with Ziggler, he just doesn't do himself any favors with the Twitter shenanigans.

    You get full hive mind if you have a dislike for Kevin Dunn despite not knowing what he does.

     

    Oh christ, this again.  I'm starting to think you are Kevin Dunn considering how much you white knight for the guy.

  9. Holy shit, I was thinking the same thing, "why is Sid a palette swap Mark Henry?"  Also, Ric Flair, Pantsless Mad Scientist could have been money.  He already figured out a way to fix Arn's bald spot.

     

    Aside from the piss poor artwork, what's the concept here?  Are they imbuing Sid with the essence of Sting?  Is Sting a giant head like Oz?  I just don't get it.

  10. Is it controversial to say I can't wait for the super hero bubble to burst?

     

     .....I'm tired of looking up on screen and knowing 95% is a green screen. ....

     

    THIS is what absolutely killed Iron Man 2 for me.  The big final battle was Iron Man and War Machine vs a bunch of robots and it suddenly hit me that I was just watching a glorified cartoon.

  11. Yeah, it's funny how everybody thought that Terminus was going to be the new farm or prison where most of the season was set there. But then Rick and Co blew through them in the first ep. Then everybody thought that the remaining Terminus guys were going to be the new Governer and be the Big Bads of the season, but they were wiped out in no time in this last ep.

     

    It's awesome when the people who run shows learn from criticism.  The Hershel's Farm season, where it seems like every episode revolved around whether Carl was in the house and if not, why not, was such a  low point.  A lot of people hated the show for that and it seems like they've learned because, as you said, they're burning through plot points they would have dragged out in prior seasons.

  12. Styles or Lee?

     

    Oh man can we segue this to some AJ Styles hate?  I'm watching BOLA and on night one the Styles match stands out like a sore thumb as far as style and effort go.  His match with Brian Myers is smack in the middle of some awesome stuff and it just kills the show for a while.  You get Elgin and Ciampa in a crazy slugfest, O'Reilly and Gulak in an insane technical match, and in between, Stylish Allen Jones doing the same old shit he's done for the past 10 years, absolutely nothign new, just coasting by with his his early-2000s tired-ass 4-5 indy spotz.  Way to bring it, 2014 Honky Tonk Man.  And then he botched the finish and had to hit his pathetic finisher twice after the match to get his heat back brother.
