I could have done without the turgid love-triangle and I have zero, count it - zero, sympathy for a Nazi. So watching Joe tearfully say, “You’ve changed me” made me want to shoot him even more. There is an audience of Homelanders out there who want to believe a woman can change a man, even a terrorist or a Nazi, but I…

Was this just about football or was this an out-growth of the political situation in Greece? I have heard Panathinaikos are largely apolitical, or that at least Gate 13 ultras (the oldest and most important club of Panathinaikos supporters) tend to stay away from politics (one of the reasons they were one of the few…

They were acting like a-holes. They booed a moment of silence for victims of terrorism. Whether they booed it because they support terrorists or not makes little difference to me. What mattered was them booing.

Not defending the team, as the Richards thing was awful, but letting Voynov skate thing was a one time mistake that I honestly think nobody in the organization realized was A) not legal and B) extra-ordinarily dumb. The Kings organization is not that bright.

At this point, Slava is a distraction the team does not need. I know “distraction” is a magical term that covers everything from quoting the Bible to double-homicide, but this is sports, so this is the term we have to live with. As to the argument the team needs him... this is the NHL and the Kings are still a good…

I thoroughly enjoy reading female writers commit mental gymnastics to justify the lack of punishment doled out to a female athlete because they identify with them, even when they are the aggressor in a violent situation, while justifying punishment meted out to a male athlete because they identify with their female…

Its not hard to believe that a person with zero knowledge or perspective would ever think of comparing Nazi regime with that of United States government, lots of people without clue due it on a daily basis for various troll reasons. You’re not unique in your idiocy.

There is. It is called “Echo.” It is home to the tame liberals, mostly consisting of the elderly, female and/or Jewish. They are allowed to talk in soft intellectual tones and make witty remarks that only 1% outside of Moscow or St. Petersburg would understand. They are so easily branded as The Other that the…

Russian news outlets are nothing but Fox News. This is not a hyperbole, outside of the straw Fox News liberal equivalent called “Echo” station, the rest of national Russian TV channels and stations are owned either by the government or friends of the government. They recently handed out medals to journalists for their…

Let us not mistake the UEFA dauphin Michel Platini for Mother Theresa. This seems like a calculated empty gesture meant to show that UEFA is doing something, anything, when in fact they are doing nothing. Hell, wasn’t Platini personally involved in the ‘98 Cup, which is also rumored to be on a list of dirty…

Way to grasp at straws there. Grantland editors would be proud.

Oh that’s some quality conspiracy thinking there. “Your honor, your honor! The prosecution did not even consider for a moment that Nicole Brown could have murdered OJ!”

Glad you could make it here to post your well thought out opinion, Bostonian. I mean, with the NHL and NBA Playoffs on right now you surely have no time to... Oh wait. Never mind.

This is like every interview ever given by every losing UFC fighter and boxer. Suddenly you find out all are injured and had no business being in the ring but gosh, they just had to suck it up and go in there and do their bestest. Bullsht. He got beat. He got outboxed. He lost. Now collect your insane gobs of money…

I'm calling shenanigans on Ric Flair's selective memory there. The decision to kill Flair's run at the top was done earlier than that. The only question was who would take the strap from him. There is an infamous story regarding Vince getting so pissed off at how Flair worked with Macho Man that he ordered them to…

Allegedly Leno worked his ass off in the training sessions to the point the other wrestlers were all waiting for him to start cracking jokes and being goofy about it and it never came during any of the gym time. He was so dedicated to making his match, people were impressed with the level of the work he put in. So,…

To be fair, they split after a last run in Japan in '89, so people could be be forgiven for not remembering they were a tag team. Their run in WWF was like only three years.

Correct. Smith hung around in 1990 to 1992 in WWF after a stint in Japan, then departed for WCW due to some strange reason (*cough* WWF's legitimate steroid testing policy and Vince's trial *cough*). There he spent a blissful 1993, teaming with Sting against Sid, Vader and an evil midget Cheatum.

Oh dear. Aren’t you just piggy-backing on the works of others here who are calling Erdely’s story into question?

Seth Rollins as the dark horse to solve the booking problem of whether to have Brock Lesnar go over and piss away the storyline and have technically a heel win in the main or have Khal Drogo Lite go over and piss off the fans in the main event of the biggest show of the year. Smart.
