That Batista promo was about as bad a promo as you'll ever see. Thank god for Brock.

QUOTE (Brian @ Jan 26, 2014 -> 10:50 PM) It was fine. Not great but not as bad as crowd made it. I actually liked Orton taunting the crowd. It wasn't a bad match at all. That being said it got s*** on because Bryan is the most over guy in the last decade and they refuse to give the fans what they want. I always give the company the benefit of the doubt because it's just entertainment after all but I'm tired of putting money into this product(and I put way too much into it as is) if they're going to just slap their fans in the face.

What. A. Joke.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Jan 26, 2014 -> 04:52 PM) Just think of me as the Seattle version of Soxobama, WITHOUT ALL OF THE CAPS and false claims of front row seats. Oh, and I can definitely see scenarios of my team losing. You buy your Richard Sherman jersey yet? I kind of want one now.

QUOTE (Brian @ Jan 26, 2014 -> 02:02 PM) I'll say it until Mania, if they do it, I just don't understand putting a guy in the main event of your biggest show ever who has been gone for 4 years and isn't all that legendary. Especially when you just unified into one major title. It's not like Batista is close to being The Rock. Does the E not want to see 70,000 chanting YES in unison? It's a big slap in the face to fans if they do it. I hate to be that guy who overly complains about a scripted sport but having a guy who is arguably the most over guy in the last decade possibly in the 5th biggest match at Mania is just a joke. QUOTE (Soxfest @ Jan 26, 2014 -> 03:36 PM) Just saw this Royal Rumble betting odds. 30 Man Royal Rumble Match (Top 5) Batista (4/11) Daniel Bryan (2/1) CM Punk (6/1) Roman Reigns (10/1) Big E Langston (25/1) WWE Title Match: Randy Orton (1/6) vs. John Cena (7/2) Brock Lesnar (1/10) vs. The Big Show (11/2) Bray Wyatt (4/11) vs. Daniel Bryan (2/1) Kickoff Pre-show: The New Age Outlaws (1/8) vs. Cody Rhodes and Goldust (9/2) Credit: SkyBet via Rajah.com My one roommate is a huge gambler and wrestling fan so he's been all over this. Bryan wasn't on the board at the start of the week, then had like the 4th best odds a few days ago and at some point today was a pretty decent sized favorite. Who knows what that all means but it's interesting for sure.

I get more excited for the Rumble than I feel I should. I'm looking forward to tonight. Swerve...please.

QUOTE (bmags @ Jan 25, 2014 -> 10:03 AM) Its not dumb, otherwise Kareem Abdul jabar is GOAT Huh?

So...Kevin Durant.

QUOTE (Brian @ Jan 25, 2014 -> 09:01 PM) Brunson got the best of Ulis tonight but both guys great as Stevenson beat Marian Catholic by 10. On CN100 tomorrow at noon. Zion rematch should be fun. Hopefully Johnson doesn't get himself suspended this time.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Jan 25, 2014 -> 08:15 AM) I think WWE is so paranoid about show leaks that they are throwing out a lot of different rumors to throw people off the scent I hope so but last years Rumble/Mania card were about as predictable as can be. Hope for the swerve tomorrow.

So Bryan's rumored opponent at Mania...Sheamus. Wow.

QUOTE (ZoomSlowik @ Jan 24, 2014 -> 09:50 PM) We need to stop calling Butler "Jimmy Buckets" until he gets over 40%. Yes J4L, we know. I didn't think 13 a game on decent efficiency was too much to ask. It's such a cool nickname though. Ya, he's been bad as of late.

56 at the end of 3 but it's a complete blow out.

49 with 7 mins left in the 3rd. Game is getting out of hand though.

QUOTE (IowanSoxFan @ Jan 24, 2014 -> 02:47 PM) I'm somewhere between "I like this" and "don't really care", but I don't dislike it. Basically. He's been here for 2 years...1 good, 1 awful, I'm very "whatever" about this. I'm pretty much that way about baseball managers in general(unless you're Ozzie) so I'll just wait and see on this.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Jan 24, 2014 -> 04:27 PM) In case anyone's going, keep us updated. If all that comes from Soxfest is this photo, then I'm fine with that too http://deadspin.com/hawk-harrelson-is-base...addy-1508501487 Might as well just cancel Soxfest, that picture wins the weekend.

Ok.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jan 24, 2014 -> 10:02 AM) The scene from Billy Madison is still hilarious. Throwing it after the Richard Sherman intervew is just not funny. It doesn't make any sense. Even if you think he was out of line going off on Crabtree, he didn't really say anything that was wrong. That scene will never get old though.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Jan 23, 2014 -> 09:58 PM) Sting match against Magnus tonight was a clusterf***! Dixie Carter on air character is horrid. Here's TNA TNA'ing it. http://www.cagesideseats.com/videos/2014/1...st-match-in-tna Sting coming down from the rafters as a Rumble surprise would be cool as hell. Not sure if the E let's him do that though if he does go there.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Jan 23, 2014 -> 09:07 PM) I just don't see why the money has to be spent right now on merely anyone. Sure, the money is there, that doesn't mean it has to be thrown at the first jamoke you see. You just wanted to type 'jamoke'

Showtime did an outstanding job.

Man, I hate LeBron too but some of you hold some serious grudges.

QUOTE (thxfrthmmrs @ Jan 23, 2014 -> 05:09 PM) This just in, Keith Law thinks Tanaka will be an elite pitcher from day one. Keith Law was on Waddle and Silvy yesterday and was EXTREMELY complimentary of Rick Hahn and what the Sox have done since July's trade deadline.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ Jan 23, 2014 -> 06:36 PM) Illinois just gave away 4 points on Bertrand's 2 missed free throws and Tate blowing a layup. Can't have that in a game that might be played in the 40s. You sure it's getting to the 40's?

A Super Bowl on Saturday would be sweet though.
