Yeah but in Pillman’s case getting fired was to his benefit, since he worked the WCW front office, and was able to avoid being squashed by Hogan in three tiered cage match. When Hogan saw how much the “loose cannon” gimmick was getting over he demanded that Pillman be put in that match so he and Savage could kill his…

Just got off crutches in the last few days. It’s still gonna be awhile.

I actually had someone tell me, concerning the Nassar case “considering how successful these girls were, you’d think they’d be a little more grateful to this guy.” He went on to imply that they were in gymnastics to show off their bodies for men, and many of them most likely enjoyed it, and only came clear because…

Them being paid millions for their current labor doesn’t change the fact they were exploited by KU for their past labor. Those kids should be getting paid. That’s inarguable.

Lawler is scum too. Guy liked hanging out with teenage girls when he was in his 40s.

The union needs to destroy the “small market” myth and force a “paupers tax” in that serves as a salary floor in the same way the luxury tax serves as a cap. Teams should be spending at least $100 million on payroll at this point. Any team that isn’t is ripping off their fan base. We’ve already seen that the teams…

So Deadspin is going to highlight WWE’s most famous domestic abuser on the same day that their Cruiserweight Champion is suspended for allegedly raping a woman in Arizona last October? No mention of that huh? Classy.

How can you call Finland the least interesting Nordic country? Just look up “The Winter War”, and change your mind. Outside of racist American politicians pretending not to know what it’s ethnoc majority is, Mats Zuccarello and Johan Olav Koss, Norway is clearly the least interesting of the Nordic countries.

This has nothing to do with the pace of play. This is the beginning of a coordinated effort by the owners to attempt to take power away from what is probably the most effective union in the country. They’ve been licking their wounds a long time since 94, and now they want to flex some muscle. Remember this when a…

I’ve read Simmons old stuff, I never said he has to be “objective”, I said playing the long aggrieved fan, when you are awash in championships is absurd. This is something Simmons does all the time, acting like the Red Sox are still “cursed” and that they don’t follow the Yankee blueprint in building their team, and…

New Japan does a nice job mingling the comedy in on the undercard of most shows. Any multi man tag match with Taguchi is going to be fun. Also, Toru Yano.

The worst are fatalist fans of winning teams. Red Sox fans post 2004 come to mind. Well, pretty much all Boston sports fans actually. The Red Sox have followed the Yankees model of spending huge money to win championships, The Patriots have become the most evil empire in sports, and to a lesser extent the Celtics and…

You keep talking about “context” as if it matters. Without a signed consent form for the pictures to be posted publicly, it should be a crime. Period. In what “context” is the posting of private pictures publicly okay?

Nobody implied any of those things. It’s almost like you didn’t read the article. Either that or you are completely incapable of critical thinking.

You realize that happened almost two decades ago and he served his punishment for that crime. The fact that some cases are treated unjustly doesn’t mean that all should be.

Concrete Blonde does an amazing version of this song.

That’s quite the strawman you’ve built there.

No more commissioners, or GM’s or authority figures. That trope needs to be put on the shelf for a decade minimum at this point.

Did you actually think this was funny, or are you one of those guys angry at women who sex with someone other than you? (I’m guessing the latter.)

Which of her personal issues were self inflicted?
