RIPPA

One of the guys from the local radio station called the PTO to ask some questions - and in that conversation, the logo isn't including in today's ruling so that actual could work

Yeah... no I am excited about 980 totally ignoring the story though

Have they ever not fucked it up? I mean last year they tried not to but then realized they ran out of time plus they screwed up who qualified for the finals

So is hating 80s Japanese wrestling the new hating on lucha?

BTW - just like the last time this happened, the Redskins can appeal (they won the last time but that was a technicality since it was ruled the case the decision was based on was too old)

I should have put every single AWA team together just so Matt would have been too paralyzed to vote EDIT - Wait you DIDN'T VOTE FOR JUMBO/TENRYU????

You use what criteria you want. That being said - the nature of this being a tag team tournament... you might want to consider just the team's body of work.

Normally I would call everyone nuts for ignoring Misawa/Kobashi but there are a lot of stacked teams here I only really should have voted for 3 teams but I decided to show Timbs some love. I like Owen but if I never see Bret Hart again I am a happy man. And Austin/Pillman are similar to the Harts in that they were together for a shorter period of time than others. While I am pro-Lucha - the Winners/Calo duo does nothing for me. I also am not as much of a mark for Rude/Manny as others are. I freely admit that I haven't seen enough Bockwinkle/Stevens to feel comfortable voting for them.

FYI Everyone is LOSING THEIR F'ING MIND around here Clearly my need for pants today was unfounded

They were one of the last teams we added because Ed and I both are always all "OH! Both Pitbulls are dead" and then I remember that #1 survived his crippling I am surprised we don't have more ECW teams. I mean the fact that both Gangstas are alive is mind blowing

Well Eaton was doing his damnedest to be the dead part of a tag team for awhile Ric Flair and Roddy Piper were other guys who apparently real good luck charms to team with since almost everyone is still alive. Barry was paired up with someone else for awhile (possibly Bobby Duncam Jr) so by the time we got around to deciding that it was a very sketchy team - Hennig and Hall was already set. It also didn't help that I kept trying to put Barry with Kendall - who is just in jail, not dead.

Ooof Richard Durrett - who covered the Rangers for ESPN Dallas (amongst other things) passed away He was only 38 and leaves behind a wife and 2 kids. I honestly had never heard of him before just now and the story is really bothering me

The D-Backs realize they are not the Cards right. WE WILL UPHOLD THE UNWRITTEN RULES! THROW AT EVERYONE! Oh look at that grand slam that throwing at Ryan Braun caused...

Won the IC title

I have often thought about starting this thread just for random tidbits that happen to TNA that end up getting buried in the Discussion thread because reasons. Like the Matt Hardy thing probably would have worked. But even better is that apparently TNA is running a poll where the fans are deciding if they use the 4 or 6 sided ring for the NY tapings

This shouldn't make me laugh as much as it does. It's stupid and silly but still Dave tweeted a hour ago (so like 5 AM est, 2 AM his time) Luckily CRZ was awake
