QUOTE (Soxfest @ Apr 1, 2016 -> 10:43 PM) Bayley must be moving up I'd guess during summer. This Asuka program isn't over. Guy on Twitter said the little Bayley super fan was out of control and her parents had to take her out of the arena, she was so upset. Bobby Roode!

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Apr 1, 2016 -> 10:23 PM) Yeah. Aries vs Corbin wasn't great. Didn't help that the crowd was dead from the great tag match though. Since Corbin lost I think he's probably coming up. Nah. Corbin will stick around for awhile. It was a roll up pin out of nowhere. I'd expect him to continue to feud with Aries. Corbin has improved so much in the last year or so. I'm afraid they'd screw him up on Raw.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Apr 1, 2016 -> 10:12 PM) That was a excellent match. Definitely excellent. First time I've seen Nakamura. Like his presence. Aries sort of let me down.

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Apr 1, 2016 -> 07:18 PM) That's the worst mock draft I've seen this year. Honestly awful. I can't believe NFL.com would publish something like it.

Someone tweeted a mock draft where the Bears got Bosa at 11. I'd crap myself if he made it past the top 5. http://www.nfl.com/draft/2016/mock-drafts/...6502-sf23526502

I've been slacking off lately. A,little down because I can't find a job and eating like crap. Only been going to gym 3 times a week. Feel like moving to Arizona in a couple of weeks will make me feel better and motivate me.

I don't know the logistics of this strike but my parents were in the education system and my sister is. You can always tell the people that have no clue what teachers do. Just because they have "Summer's off" they have it easy. Not realizing during school year it's an all day job. Taking work home with them. I barely saw my dad growing up cuz he coached after school. Lots of teachers and administrators are one year long schedules now. CPS teachers have to be dealing with kids with behavioral issues more than my parents had to. The pensions are for security like anyone having a 401k because they get paid diddly while teaching. The system is so screwed up, my sister and others are getting out.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 1, 2016 -> 10:14 AM) He'd be a great fit for a team that needs a smart PG. I don't see a big program taking that risk on him. His hips are still bad. Hope I'm wrong

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Apr 1, 2016 -> 07:39 AM) If you're a grad transfer, particularly one who was told there's no scholis left, you should not be restricted anywhere IMO. I don't think any student athlete should have to sit out a full year if they transfer. But you can only transfer once to be eligible in 4 or 5 years.

They need to do away with any authority angles for a long long time. If they were creative enough, they wouldn't need it. Just have an unbiased commissioner like character or something. Like Regal does in nxt.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Apr 1, 2016 -> 05:26 AM) Off to Dallas. I absolutely could not be more excited for tonight. Plot twist. You accidentally bought tickets to Dallas, Oregon

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 31, 2016 -> 09:41 PM) Oh damn. Are they filming the next season already, or would it be something coming up from this season? I would assume it's the season finale this year but not sure.

QUOTE (iWin4Ron @ Mar 31, 2016 -> 03:22 PM) There is a lot of things WWE does to annoy the living s*** out of me. However, many of these things are generally 'smart for business' or at least, they make money with their philosophy. However, one thing that I can't understand for the life of me is why the King of the Ring PPV was taking away. You get 8 or 16 mid-card wrestlers, have a great tournament, and boom a winner is born with great honor. There are some flops, but this is a perfect opportunity to create a star! Obviously, it was back in 2015, but no longer a PPV or marque event, kinda useless IMO. Meanwhile, we have something like 13-15 ppv's with gimmicky names like Elimination Chamber or Money in the bank or TLC or Hell in a cell. (rofl). Why the hell did they change the PPV names to be gimmicks? Such corny bs. At least, I can understand this -- they make money off the PPVs so more ppvs is a good thing for business. Whatever. But why not have the KOTR, it was once known as a big 5. That's like the equivalent of taking away survivor series for no reason. I loved the KOTR when the did the whole 8 man bracket on one PPV. Even the semis/final ones felt important. They would just waste whoever won them anyway these days.

I'd dig it.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Mar 31, 2016 -> 11:02 AM) We need a new thread tomorrow or starting whenever. That should be the op. Last year we decided to do a new thread on WrestleMania every year. Thought this NXT show would be the last of this thread.

Friday Night at 9pm EST on WWE Network Justin and I are more excited for this show than WrestleMania. The build up to the matches have been great. Austin Aries debuts vs Baron Corbin I'm not too familiar with Aries. Small guy debuting vs a big guy is intriguing. Corbin has improved so much over the past year. Finding his personality as a jerk big guy heel. If he is called up soon, hope they let him stay that way. The Revival vs American Alpha for the NXT Tag Team Championship American Alpha is a great team. Maybe the best to ever come out of NXT. I don't see what HHH sees in The Revival. They're generic and get no reaction. Pushing them as old school isn't working. Bayley vs Asuka for the NXT Women's Championship This will be the best match on the card. No doubt. The crowd will be hot for it and I really have no clue who wins. Sami Zayn vs. Shinsuke Nakamura (debut) I'm not too familiar with Nakamura but everyone is stoked for his debut. The 2nd NXT in ring debut of the show. Probably Sami's final NXT match. Finn Balor © vs. Samoa Joe for the NXT Championship I was hoping they'd go with Zayn vs Finn but with Sami being called up, a rematch makes sense. Their London match was solid so this should be no different.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Mar 31, 2016 -> 10:23 AM) Luckily the Apple router allows for "bridge mode." Did you call comcast's support yet? He was actually the guy who helped me Not yet. Maybe later. It's just annoying once in awhile. Not pushed over the edge yet.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Mar 31, 2016 -> 10:18 AM) Hmm ok. Comcast is really weird about their IP address so let me think about that. My router was always going back and trying to get a new IP every few min and it was killing me, I had to go back to the comcast modem and use my router as just a bridge while the Comcast modem worked with the IP That is way to complicated for me. Thought I could just go into settings and do something.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 31, 2016 -> 09:12 AM) Originally, yes. But after sitting out, he can't leave a year on the table. I don't get the point of blocking Spike and I'm a Michigan fan. Let him go wherever. Who knows if he can even stay healthy. Coaches have reasons that aren't made public. Happens all the time.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Mar 31, 2016 -> 08:11 AM) Im sure that was the story he told. If he was so crappy and unhealthy why would Beilein not let him transfer to schools within conference? Cuz he saw how much Biefledt helped Indiana? I would've rather they let Spike stay here but they're high on Simpson coming in.
