QUOTE(ZoomSlowik @ Feb 5, 2007 -> 04:42 PM) Since Yahoo should be opening early next week, I'm going to get started on sign ups. Please include the following information in your post: 1) What format you prefer playing (head to head or roto) 2) Your relative level of experience (experience is not required to play, I'd just rather not put beginners in the stronger leagues) 3) Your league preference (if you have played before) 4) Whether or not you are willing to be a league commisioner (especially for people that have done it in the past and/or veteran players/posters) Leagues will be setup/announced when the rosters are full, with new leagues being formed as demand requires. Nothing will be announced until Yahoo opens at the earliest, and probably later. Do not panick if I haven't responded or placed you in a league yet, I will be paying attention to this league and taking notes. Good luck and have fun! preferably head to hear, but whatevers open. about 6 years never played in an ST league no commish

QUOTE(Jordan4life_2007 @ Feb 18, 2007 -> 01:55 AM) I'm not sure Howard got robbed. I mean, let's be honest, the overall dunk sucked. Yeah, the sticker thing was cute. But the dude is, what, 6'11, with alligator arms? I don't think that dunk should've gotten a 10. The conest sucked overall, though. It's more for the creativity of the dunk, I think they even mentioned on the broadcast that some of the guys should show some flare to at least sell the dunk.

QUOTE(CryptviLL @ Feb 14, 2007 -> 08:57 AM) depressing lose for the bulls last nite as they've all been lately.

QUOTE(LowerCaseRepublican @ Feb 9, 2007 -> 07:17 PM) Critic, just get some ROH DVD's. It'll quench your thirst for wrestling and it is pretty damn entertaining. That said -- ECWWE is now a vehicle simply to make Lashley look unstoppable as possible. Sorry, I'm distracted by the Chicago Spectacular Night 1 DVD (Jimmy Rave vs Nigel) Rave is such a good heel. After I get the Chicago Spectacular done, I've got Death Before Dishonor IV awaiting me. And oh yes -- the NWA in Vegas on Feb. 25 has announced Colt Cabana vs Super Porky. I await eagerly. /off to watch a Cage of Death between CZW and ROH. I decided to take my first dip into ROH last night and downloaded the Corino/Homicide match at War of the Wire...pretty good stuff, i'll be sure to look into more ROH material.

QUOTE(The Critic @ Jan 31, 2007 -> 08:27 PM) News item from lordsofpain.net: Dusty Rhodes has been brought in to help out with the creative end of ECW. Ugh. "Lemme tell ya, baybay, whut EE THEE DUBYA needth ith mawr falth finnithes, if ya weeeel, daddayyyy! Sunuvaplumma!" this is great.

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Jan 29, 2007 -> 10:12 PM) She is just gross. You're Insane.

QUOTE(Spod=Ratings @ Jan 29, 2007 -> 07:53 PM) Whoever said Taker vs. cena i would like it. What a way to have Cenas Title streak snapped by Taker, have Cena go heel as well, and have taker be a huge face, and then when Tripps comes back have him continue DX, or have him go to SD, if they dare. Only problem being then there would be even a less reason to watch SD. IMO, the only way that this match works is if Cena were to go heel, it's just a gut feeling or perhaps my dislike for Cena's character...it's just time for it to be taken to the backyard and shot

QUOTE(Buehrle>Wood @ Jan 29, 2007 -> 06:35 PM) "According to The Wrestling Observer, it appears some major changes have taken place for the planned WrestleMania 23 line-up in regards to John Cena's match. While a decision hasn't been completely made yet, the early word is that the new change is quite significant from the original plans. We will continue to follow this story as it develops." "Dave Meltzer reports that WWE is internally discussing making a major change to one of the WrestleMania 23 main-events. While details are unclear, the change reportedly has to do with John Cena’s WWE Championship defense. The most recent plan reportedly called for Cena to defend his belt in a triple threat match with Randy Orton and Edge, but if the change goes through, it will be a “significant” stray from that idea, the Observer reports. It could also change other matches on the card." 'Taker vs. Cena?

Rumor is that there will be some sort of "injury" type angle to take 2 guys out of the rumble and they'll be replaced with 2 legends....*crosses fingers for Ron Simmons*

News & Notes.... Rumored matches for 'Mania Cena v. Edge v. Orton for the belt 'Taker v. Batista Hogan v. Shane McMahon w/Great Khali in his corner (This is going to be the showstopper) and rumored will be HBK w/Donald Trump v. King Bookah w/ Vinny Mac in his corner this 'Mania is looking like the best yet CM Punk is supposedly getting heat from the boys for making out with Maria while on the Iraq trip... Also seems none of the boys are really fond of Batista...shocker

QUOTE(The Critic @ Jan 24, 2007 -> 06:51 PM) That was hilarious! You could literally hear the dismay/shock in the announcer's voice (I believe it was Williams' good friend JR doing the announcing but I'm not 100% sure) when Gunn destroyed Dr. Death. I think they even had the angle where they would tease JR about his "boy" being knocked out.

QUOTE(knightni @ Jan 24, 2007 -> 02:01 PM) Post an application in the want to join area. done and done.

i've registered...what should i do next?

Thought about using Parachute pants? Word on the street is, thats whats hot nowadays.

QUOTE(kyyle23 @ Jan 22, 2007 -> 10:09 PM) The end of Raw was awesome tonite, Shawn Michaels totally went off. Orton made a good save for Edge, it was predictable, but I thought it was very well done. I thought the Street fight was one of the better matches I have seen on Raw in a long time. Couldn't of said it better myself, was a nice setup for Sunday

When I ordered mine last week, it said it should take about weeks...so i'm guessing about 4 weeks

QUOTE(whitesoxfan99 @ Jan 22, 2007 -> 03:33 PM) Good chance Brian Randle and Shaun Pruitt won't be playing for Illinois tomorrow. The amount of injuries this team has had this year has been ridiculous. They were never going to be a great team even without all the injuries, but they had a chance to be very solid. What's the deal on Randle & Pruitt now?

QUOTE(Jimbo @ Jan 17, 2007 -> 11:39 PM) very jealous don't feel bad, i once went to a game with a few friends and one of the girls that was there goes "What's Dye doing in the outfield?" "Isn't he supposed to hit only?"

QUOTE(ptatc @ Jan 12, 2007 -> 01:52 PM) I truly cannot think of words to describe this one. Insanity?

QUOTE(kyyle23 @ Jan 11, 2007 -> 07:11 AM) Is this the match the Awesome won before going to WCW? I remember he signed with the WCW days after winning the title and took it with him. Of course, Heyman was having problems paying people back then(well, he paid them, but the checks bounced) I believe so, i could be wrong tho.

Well WWE is gonna continue to pimp the ECW name by releasing a 2-disc DVD set on 1/30 entitled ECW:Extreme Rules...one disc will be stuff from the good ol days and the second disc will be stuff from the WWECW era. Match listing you say? Well here you go. Disc #1: Sandman vs. Cactus Jack (Singapore Cane vs. Barbed Wire) Hardcore Heaven '95. Gangstas vs. Eliminators in a Natural Born Killaz cage weapons match (8/24/96). Tommy Dreamer vs. Brian Lee High Incident scaffold match (10/26/96, with Jonathan Coachman & Dreamer doing new secondary commentary). Sandman vs. Sabu Stairway to Hell (House Party '98). The Dudleys Boyz vs. The Sandman & Tommy Dreamer & Spike Dudley in Extreme Street Fight (Heatwave '98). FTW champion Sabu vs. ECW World champion Tazz: ECW Death match - Living Dangerously '99. Mike Awesome vs. ECW World champion Masato Tanaka White Plains, NY 12/31/99.

Rob Van Dam vs. Hardcore Holly from 9/26/06.

I can think of 2 off the top of my head from the 2005 season. Best: The night Crede beat Cleveland with the walk off in late September...Hawk's call put that over the top Worst:I have a tie for this one, the 1-0 game we lost to Minnesota in late August and the game against Boston where Crede dropped the foul ball and on the next pitch Manny hits a shot to put em up for good.

QUOTE(Brian @ Jan 8, 2007 -> 07:26 PM) Trips out 4-6 months, meaning probably no WrestleMania which is a big hit for the E. They will definetley need to bring back one or some of Hogan, Rock, Jericho, etc for WM23 to make it interesting. or it could mean time to push some of the young talent in the E...but then again that would make too much sense.
