He also points to the Reagen administration as the beginning of all this. How we ignored middle and lower class and focused on upper class. Claims Wall Street started running the country back then.

QUOTE (MHizzle85 @ Oct 7, 2009 -> 01:57 PM) On a side note, HBK hasn't even sniffed the title in quite some time...hell, since they like to pass around the titles like they were a whore...give HBK a run. He's probably the most deserving of it on the Raw roster anyway. Been preaching this for years. Amen!

QUOTE (kapkomet @ Oct 7, 2009 -> 04:16 PM) Executives have policies taken out on them all the time. And it's up to the individual to take care of themselves on life insurance. In fact, most of the time, they have private life insurance given to them as a part of their package (aka it goes to their families). There's nothing wrong with that because it's an investment in the company. I didn't know companies did that. The families in the movie knew nothing about it until they got a letter in the mail. One case was a company getting 5M after an employee died. Some of that should go to the family.

Cliff Lee goes the distance in Game 1. Phillies win 5-1. How bad are the TBS announcers? I heard the color guy say multiple times that this was Cliff Lee's first post season start.

Not sure what to think about it. I guess it is depressing. Crazy what some of the corporations do to make money. The whole fiasco last year with Congress voting on the bailout happened so fast and the part where they explain what happened was interesting. I'd recommend it to anyone who has an opinion on this stuff, whether you agree or don't with Moore.

I usually see Moore's movies because the way he presents them are entertaining. I don't believe/agree with everything, but if even 10% of his stuff is accurate, it is scary. Thinking of seeing his new one this afternoon.

QUOTE (T R U @ Oct 5, 2009 -> 01:18 PM) Orton won clean so it was an A+ PPV imo Like you, I'm an Orton fan, but the constant title changes don't make it as cool for me that he is champ.

QUOTE (CanOfCorn @ Oct 5, 2009 -> 11:34 AM) I wish they didn't spend as much time on Turtle and Eric, but I liked the Drama, Ari and Vince/Damon plotlines. But, they need to take a little focus off of Ari and his business to get back on track. You want them to take focus off the best character on the show?

QUOTE (The Critic @ Oct 5, 2009 -> 03:32 AM) The PPV last night looked (from the results and recaps I read, at least) to be absolute horses***. Short, predictable matches up and down the card. When the biggest "surprise" is the Taker/Punk match being the curtain jerker, that's a weak-ass PPV. If anyone watched it, was it any better than it seemed from reading the match recaps? Not really. Morrison/Zigler was ok. DX/Legacy was pretty good. That was it. Undertaker could barely move around during his match with Punk. He looks like he could be donem IMO. To give him the title is just a mistake right now.

Ari and Matt Damon saved the Entourage finale. They better get back to what brought them to the dance next year. The Matt Damon stuff after the credits was awesome. Curb continues to rock.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Oct 5, 2009 -> 08:24 AM) Lucifer's Hammer, also The Hammer of God, were sci-fi books that were loose influences on the pair of awful, awful, awful comet movies that came out some years ago - Armageddon and Deep Impact. Probably, people have decided to stay away from that mini-genre now because they are still trying to wash that taste out of their mouths. Lucifer's Hammer influenced Deep Impact? This is a joke, right? That movie was nowhere near the book.

Where was Witten on those last two plays? The Cowboys ran the same slant plays. Did they think Bailey couldn't defend it twice?
