It looks to me like (INJ / TBD) is considered a single category when listing the roster on scripts.

And I don't know how you can say they call people up out of developmental too soon anymore. I mean, I think Bo Dallas is gonna flop, but that's because Bo Dallas sucks and Adam Rose is just not a gimmick I think is going to catch fire outside of small venues, but otherwise, their developmental call-ups lately are…

Lately though, while the phrase "sports entertainment" remains and always will, Vince has been trying to present the show less as a choreographed performance and more as a sport to jack up TV rights fees, since sports command higher rates than Vince McMahon's Wacky & Wild Wrasslin' Sideshow.

Yyyyyyyyyyyyyup. I've never had a single social media networking profile and never missed a party I was invited to. If your friends don't care enough to toss you anything more than an e-vite (what is this, 2002?), they're not really hoping you show up and if they can't be bothered to interact with you anywhere besides…

And if this article were written exclusively for residents of Cambridge, this would be a valid point.

Highly unlikely. Boxing is a different beast with a different level of legislative and mainstream acceptance. With MMA still fighting to be legalized in multiple major US markets, it's not likely they'd be dumb enough to rest the whole organization and everything they've accomplished thus far on some fight-fixing…

*eyes roll, fall out of asshole*

Pretty much anything Marchman has ever written.

Now THIS is the kind of MMA writing Deadspin should have. Well done.

Not sure why so many people are having trouble discerning your point.

"You just spent all that money just to cross your fingers and pray for five straight flawless 83-degree days. Why did you do that?"

With each Guy Fieri post that makes it to Gawker, given what an obscure target he is in the grand scheme of things, I grow more and more convinced that he paid Nick Denton a healthy sum for a shitload of viral marketing.

No, I get what you're saying. I dunno.

I dunno. Maybe racist isn't the right word. I don't know what the right word is. The example you give also kind of feels wrong, though, in the same way that Gwen and Avril's preoccupation with their objects of affection do.

To be fair, in the same period, she also collaborated with Juanes and a few other acts outside her own genre. I wouldn't say that makes her a hip-hop artist anymore than it would make Tim McIlrath of Rise Against a hip-hop artist for collaborating with the Flobots or any number of other artists who did one or two-off…

Oh, jesus. Fuck my reading comprehension post-dinner. My bad.

I'm not sure. I wanna say maybe, but I know Ke$ha was an acoustic country/gospel singer before she became "electro-pop-dance gay rights* supporter."

Didn't Gwen Stefani already do this whole kinda racist, "uh, is this really OK, because I have no idea" white-girl-adoption of Japanese/Chinese pop culture for purely superficial fashion reasons thing?

Yep, Furtado started as a bizarre vegan/hippie/soul/singer-songwriter and when that image didn't really pay off in the long game, she became Scantily Clad Pop Diva #1080193849234.
