  1. Perhaps Seth Rollins would not have to worry about slipping in puddles if the three Shield members didn't pour a gallon of fucking water on their heads before they came out to the ring.

     

    And why does Rollins dress like he's about to go skydiving? What is with that vest?

    He's an AERIALIST. Hence the paratrooper jacket. Also, an architect, and a surgeon. Seth Rollins is Art Vandelay.

  2. It looks like 61 year old d-line coach Larry Johnson has thrown his hat into the ring for the Penn State job, he's the only Paterno assistant left on the staff and seems to be the choice of the "Paterno People."

    I've not heard of the guy you're talking about, so my mind went here instead.

    Reality can only be a letdown, comparatively.

  3. So I cannot sleep and I turned on Marc Maron's WTF podcast; chose the one with CM Punk. He makes an off-the-cuff remark about being "doped up" after his knee surgery and immediately being called afterwards by Vince: he's got Ryback in three weeks in a TLC. 

     

    Now I ask this without an ounce of sarcasm, and not a hint of smug smarkiness: how do drugs used for surgery factor into the Straight Edge lifestyle?

    Not to be too vague, but it basically depends. Straight edge, like any dogma, varies tremendously. Generally, the people I know draw the line at recreational drug use. If it's "mandatory" - i.e., required for surgery, disease treatment, etc. - you take what you need to, but for no longer than needed. Maybe it's worth noting that many straight edge kids tend towards veg*n diets, and abstain from out-of-committed-relationship sex. So it's not like Punk has a perfect score on his edge card anyway, if we're going by the most strict rules.

  4. Getting one's car totalled is not usually good news, really, but I'm choosing to take it that way. The other guy accepted responsibility, and the settlement is coming quickly. Most importantly, however, I'm not dead, or even anywhere close. A mild concussion is the worst I've got, which, considering I got hit by a rather large truck, moving at roughly 40 mph, is quite lucky. Silver linings. 

  5. Big Show at least carries himself like a main eventer unlike Bryan.

     

    Up until the point where his shirt came open, then off, and his pants started to fall down, maybe. Then he just looked like a (very tall, but still) flabby dude with his underwear sticking out.

  6. What's Davey Richards need a bag for? Isn't he just in his gear at all times in case someone at Starbuck's disrespects his soy latte?

     

    Nah, I think he's the guy complaining about the lack of almond milk, who then proceeds to tell you all about his paleo diet adventures, and how soy is full of phytoestrogens that are the reason you're a skinnyfat barista, and not a prime physical specimen, like himself. Pretty sure he's that guy.

  7. Baylor in person (and as one of approximately 54 persons) is as nuts as you'd expect. Petty had (he's out already, of course) perhaps his least accurate game of the year, and Baylor even managed to cough the ball up once - and, of all things, punt twice. Still notched about 500 yards in the first half, of course. Granted, Kansas is the "easy" mode of automatic qualifier football (Uconn, maybe, could contest that); but it still looks like they're fucking with the sliders a little bit. 

  8. On the subject of female fronted metal bands, I've been listening to Oathbreaker's "Eros/Anteros" pretty much everyday for the last few weeks (along with Touche Amore's "Is Survived By", but I'm emo like that). Just another post-hardcore Belgian outfit with some tinges of black metal influence, floating around with some other stuff, probably. This is one of their more atmospheric tracks.

  9. Having just returned from Kansas' 13-10 victory over Louisiana Tech, I assure you there are levels of football hell far deeper than Tennessee/Florida. And I have season tickets to precisely that most horrid circle.

     

    I'm just going to stare at this picture until I feel like life has meaning again.
