QUOTE (SoxFan562004 @ Oct 31, 2016 -> 09:55 PM) And I was told zayn and Bayley were ok in their pushes... People need to be patient with Sami and Bayley. I feel fans are behind them and will have their time. Especially Bayley. No reason to hot shot them. Nia just looks reckless in there. I thought she killed Bayley with that Samoan Drop. Her leg drops and splashes look like trash.

Corgan loses case vs Dixie. I'm guessing Dixie sells to Vince. JMO

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Oct 30, 2016 -> 06:39 PM) Seriously? LWE probably gets to the finals then. 8A lost a lot of luster with that injury and Rice and Stevenson losing. New Trier or LWE could be in Champaign.

QUOTE (2005thxfrthmmrs @ Oct 31, 2016 -> 09:28 AM) It's hard to cut a face promo when your gimmick is "th boss". Agreed that she should turn heel. I also do not like that the Women's title has changed hand 4 times in the last 4 months. The last title switch on Raw never should've happened. If Sasha was going to win it, it should've been last night. And that last title change is even more irrelevant now that Charlotte got it back. They are really getting behind this Charlotte PPV streak. QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Oct 31, 2016 -> 06:51 AM) Didn't watch the main event last night since I was watching wo4ld series, but 100% with fathom here. Sasha is so so bad. She has absolutely 0 idea how to cut a face promo and it comes off as incredibly awkward. In the ring she has to be the most dangerous worker I've seen with WWE as of late and I really think she's going to end up seriously hurting HERSELF.

QUOTE (fathom @ Oct 30, 2016 -> 11:41 PM) At least Jim Cornette agrees with me, and god knows he is mild-mannered Jim Cornette, while entertaining, is still living in the 80s. Sasha needs to be a heel. I'm just not entertained by her the way she is now. The main event was solid until that awkward table spot by Charlotte. Took the air out of it.

Thought Palatine was a legit 8A threat, but their starting QB broke his collarbone. Done for playoffs. Brutal

Horrible officiating in the 4th but held on. Knew they wouldn't cover so taking the W.

Fanduel and Draftkings on the verge of a merge. Both having trouble paying vendors and laying people off.

The only first round 8A game I'd bet on and feel comfortable about is Loyola. I could see upsets everywhere else.

2016 Presidential Election Thread
QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Oct 26, 2016 -> 05:19 PM) Michael Moore did "Where To Invade Next" recently....I defy any conservative to identify at least half the ideas posed by that movie as anything but bipartisan and reasonable. I think it's Moore's best since "Bowling For Columbine". Obviously his findings lean towards Bernie without saying directly but it's an interesting watch for any side of the aisle. I don't really think the prison system here can be fixed to be like the country he goes to. Too damaged, but maybe I'm wrong.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Oct 26, 2016 -> 09:25 AM) Neither Oliver nor Bee attempts to be Stewart, yet they have their own voice and can nail some unbeatable moments. That's what keeps me tuning in. I like the Jon Oliver show but I don't find his comedy that funny. His material and subjects are so well done though. I need to read all the posts before I respond because I am just repeating other people's points.

QUOTE (bmags @ Oct 26, 2016 -> 09:12 AM) I don't know man. He's just not good, and I think 80% of that is writing (daily show itself started to fall off after 2010 imo when Stewart started believing his own hype that he was uniquely wise and the true reasonable american), but they also don't have the correspondent pipeline they used to have. But then there is Noah. His cadence is strange, comedically, he tends to swallow the punch lines instead of emphasize them... but also it just feels like the daily show just doesn't have a point of view anymore. It started out with Kilbourn skewing the news, stewart skewed politicians and news, but now it just seems to peddle nowthis meme outrage fodder. Back in my day. Yeah. Noah seems cool, but I gave him like 4 months before I stopped DVRing it. Needs to try and make it his own because he can't pull off the Stewart method.

The Daily Show dropped the ball by not hiring Samantha Bee after Stewart left. If she was interested in it. Her TBS show kills it.
