Then to top it off, the if the Bulls picked two guys from the third tier of players and tried to sell it like they did something good, we could punt on the second decade of the 21st century as well. I'm still pissed we got dissed by Eddie Jones. I know what you mean though.

If it means replacing Farmer, I'm all for it.

QUOTE (GoodAsGould @ Feb 16, 2010 -> 02:59 AM) You know I havent been making it out there often but I think it still is that way, it was like that in my community college(Harper) in the A building the bottom were all the African Americans and uptop white nerds lol. I always go by the method since Im brown I can fit in either way but since I havent played bball in a LONG time I might stick to the left side of the gym first I miss playing with those guys. Got to meet a lot of friends over there and it was always fun and competitive and nobody took it too seriously. One day towards the end of Spring, 5 of the girls from the SIU women's team came to play and my team won the previous game so we had to face them. Dirty biatches. I had nail and scratch marks all over my back from boxing this one girl out. Took forever for that stuff to heal. Of course, I told my buddies that a woman gave em to me but didn't say where.

QUOTE (MHizzle85 @ Feb 15, 2010 -> 10:44 PM) Agreed. IIRC, the early plan was for them to have a hair v. mask match. As for Raw, the only part I enjoyed was Orton/Sheamus. An Okay addition to the Hart/McMahon angle, until it kept being referred to as the worst night of Bret's life. I'm sure losing his brother in tragic form or his parents or having a stroke & being put in a wheelchair can't even compare to breaking a leg. Would of been better if they didn't show who the driver of the car was until everyone walked away and it was Stephanie just making a cameo. And my jerk friend, down in FCW, texts me to say that he was working out and Mickie James, who he met a couple of days ago, remembered him and came over to talk to him today. What a jerk.

BTW, District 9 was nothing special. IMO It was watchable but not Best Picture nomination worthy.

QUOTE (GoodAsGould @ Feb 15, 2010 -> 08:23 PM) If you both play in the rec center Ill wipe the floor with both of you When I was there, the rec center was unintentionally segregated. Us white boys playes on the courts on the left. Everytime I went to the right, they would never let me play even though I was better than most of them. The last day of finals before graduation I went to play and nobody was on the left courts so I wandered over to the right and a court needed one so I got to play. I used it as my national title game and killed it. The other team was yelling at teh guy guarding me cuz I scored 8 of our 11 points, including the game winner in my last rec game there and I walked off into the sunset.

QUOTE (T R U @ Feb 15, 2010 -> 10:01 PM) TNA is gonna have to step it up big time if they are gonna threaten the E in any ratings war For TNA to even threaten WWE, they need to have that moment while on Mondays. Like Scott Hall showing up on Nitro. No offense to Angle, but an established WWE star who was just on their program a few weeks ago and than shows up on their show. Jeff Hardy could of been that but hasn't been on since.

Let's just say, I'm still not keeping much in me right now, even though I feel fine.

My buddy, in FCW, was told the first day if you ever see other wrestlers from TV, you should always politely introduce yourself and all that. He met Mickie James and Serena at the gym, and Edge at the last FCW show. Said everyone is nice when he meets them.

Pun/Rey on Smackdown was top notch. I can see they are setting that up for Mania.

QUOTE (The Critic @ Feb 15, 2010 -> 10:35 AM) Yeah, if TNA would just dial down the old guys a little, I think they'd have something good happening. I don't have SighFigh, so I don't know how they used Burke in ECWWE. It could just be right place/right time/right name for him in TNA. I've enjoyed his work and his promos a lot. Good to see him getting a push - I expected him to lose the final, but I don't think Anderson needs the win as much. A good booking decision. He was just used on ECW. Nothing special. He was the leader of the "New Breed" in that angle. They should of put him on Smackdown and let him do his thing.

Was sick in bed yesterday so watched the whole OSU/Illini and Minn/NW games. I think OSU goes further than anyother Big 10 team in they tournament. Them and/or Purdue. P.S. I LOVE Gus JOhnson and Greg Anthony together.

Stoked for a "Locke-centric" episode this week. They always rock.

Home from work today, guess I will finally watch District 9 which I have had from Netflix for a week.

Finally able to get out of bed and move around without throwing up for the first time in 36 hours. I could only lay in bed in one position without getting queezy and my back was killing me. Saltines and Sprite baby!

I haven't seen Kevin SMith in awhile, but from Clerks to a few years ago, you could definitely tell he was eating his earnings.

I don't think WWE does this often with young talent, but they may have dropped the ball with Elijah Burke. He has been having really good matches in TNA and is getting over. Not even Anderson is annoying me as much as he did. I don't hate TNA right now.

Salukis are clearly on the right track with a huge win at home vs. the mighty Evansville Purple Aces.

I would ravage Michelle Beadle from Sportsnation, no matter how bad that show is.

QUOTE (The Critic @ Feb 12, 2010 -> 04:27 PM) I don't believe it for one second. Fuji and Tanaka were multiple-time tag champs, so when exactly did Fuji "chase Tanaka out of a territory"? Piper was full of s*** throughout that entire show. I don't think Piper meant Pat Tanaka. He meant the big fat dude from the Bond movie.

QUOTE (EvilJester99 @ Feb 12, 2010 -> 03:25 PM) Lawrence Holmes was talking last night about a Tyrus and Hinrich for Ray Allen deal....just speculation. I heard Kirk for Allen last week. Would be a good deal for both this year and a salary dump.

Dude....Fuji fed him his dog???

I've never had a cavity, biatches! Take notes! Although last night was my first night with a night retainer, top and bottom, and my teeth are friggin sore. I couldn't even bite into my protein bar without crying.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Feb 12, 2010 -> 06:29 AM) TNA, just WTF. They have some good things (AJ Styles, Velvet Sky) and some crappy things (Hogan/Bischoff/The Band). Samoa Joe is so average on the mic. He has gotta be one of the more overrated wrestlers today. Maybe he is better as a monster heel but now? Uninteresting.

QUOTE (Sonik22 @ Feb 11, 2010 -> 11:58 PM) I feel like I've been waiting for "Shutter Island" forever You have. Ha That movie has been pushed back so many times. I remember seeing the trailer for it over a year ago.
