I think you have a different definition of “forced to the ground” than everyone else.  If there’s a gun being pointed at me and someone tells me to get on the ground, then I’ve been forced to the ground.

They drew guns on him, told him to lay down. He instead put his gun on the ground. Police then put him on the ground and cuffed him until the whole thing was tied up. 

1.) Mick Foley is his real name, so why the quotes? (Well, Michael Francis Foley is his real name, but you get me.)

I think you yourself took too many chairshots to the head. 

Might wanna actually read the article dude.

He was considered a loudmouth and attention whore while he was playing, but he didn’t delve into this shit. It was mostly baseball related, IIRC.

A note that the lawyer who let Jeffrey Epstein off with a wrist slap is Alexander Acosta, now Trump’s Secretary of Labor.

I’m gonna go ahead and retract the “ya’ll”, because A) I forgot your editors don’t cross-pollinate, and B) it seems that when I originally got the notifications for the story, it looked like both The Root and Deadspin had picked it up—when in fact only AVClub had.

How is it shitting on him? He was just too green to be in that situation and I explicitly said that he and Foley smoothed over the issue months later.

This guy’s become a stain on the Red Sox legacy.

Yeah, I watched it live at 17, and just thought it was bad-ass.
Now i can’t watch that clip all the way to the end.
I do wonder what the rock was thinking. Was he in over his head? Or young and a jerk? Or did he just think the same thing we did––he’s fine, if things were going wrong, we would notice.

So we’re supposed to believe that the government is capable of coordinating complex conspiracies, like running a sex ring and planting pipe bombs, but that an individual man can’t paint his sock to make it look like blood?

How can anyone look at Hillary and Trump and think that Hillary would be the one of them involved in a sex ring? 

Twenty years ago it was perfectly normal and almost expected. In retrospect, it was fucked up.

Watching this match now with the hindsight that comes with twenty years, I am astounded at just how we all assumed Mick would be okay, because he did stuff like this all the time. I remember my eighteen-year old self seeing it live and thinking it was one of the best matches I’d ever seen, and I don’t think I ever…

The Saints were robbed of a Super Bowl, while Robey-Coleman was robbed of...this 4-year-old Ford F-150 2WD Supercrew XLT with 49,420 miles.

Now the Rams fanbase can kick in on a GoFundMe campaign to reimburse Robey-Coleman for his $26,739 fine. Unfortunately, that’s gonna work out to about to $8,900 per person... 

I guess your cheating has to cost you a superbowl to lose a draft pick

Jesus, they can’t even get the after no call call right.  

For my money, this is the most uncomfortable match in WWE history, if not ever. I have watched a ton of deathmatches and crazy hard hitting Japanese stuff, but those chairshots are just heinous. The Hell in a Cell match is bad enough, but nothing compares to that last chair to the back of the head. It is way too real.
