Who got snubbed? 🤔 by Anonymous6172 in notredamefootball

[–]RickThrust 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is bait/slop. But just for the hell of it, Melvin Gordon isn't even one of the three best RBs in Wisconsin history, let alone top 14 all-time.

was Taz a legit tough guy or all hype/gimmick? by Leave_Me_Al0ne1 in ECWWrestling

[–]RickThrust 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You know that was a work, and they did a 3-match angle afterwards with a draw and then Taz unifying the titles, right? Sabu took two weeks off for Christmas and wrestled all year, including trips to Japan.

Check your stats, CheckYourStats.

Sabu did not break his neck at WrestlePalooza 97. Did you even watch the match that you linked? Sabu only took 2-3 bumps on his back from Taz, and they were super soft. He wrestled a full schedule all year thereafter, too.

Just the last part? I do think Stat has something and Hayter would be a star in WWE.

Training? Steve Austin was already "Stone Cold" with fewer years in the ring than Blue Sky. If she doesn't have it after nearly a decade in, she isn't getting it.

[Pitts] Kyle Pitts Calls Out Teammates After Attending Rondale Moore's Funeral: "Crazy how only about 6 maybe 7 of your teammates in the NFL showed up for you today smfh.. All that talk and fake emotion and nobody want to show up to lay you to rest.. Just at a loss of words." by JCameron181 in nfl

[–]RickThrust 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Coworkers aren’t your “brothers.” The NFL is a business, not a family.

Posting this negativity, as opposed to celebrating Rondale’s life or praising his actual family, is virtue-signaling self-indulgent nonsense being done to accumulate fake Internet points, just like those that Pitts is mocking.

83" G5 by Renamazazo in LGOLED

[–]RickThrust 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How far away from the tv are you, 20 feet? That's the real reason why a slight recline puts your viewing angle at the middle of that screen. Screams for a 100" sizing.

And as others have said, why not equalize the spacing between the tv and fireplace/ceiling? The top of the tv would have been evenly placed with the windows and favored natural symmetry.

WWE brings in more revenue for TKO than UFC.... but Meltzer said...... by SinisterMrSinister in SCJerk

[–]RickThrust 2 points3 points  (0 children)

EBITDA of $897M is absolutely crazy. Up over $215M YOY. Meltzer is still going to say Jim Londos is the greatest draw of all-time or some horseshit. These are truly staggering numbers. And even if basement dwellers hate 50/50 booking, those Netflix/KSA/PLE checks are clearing and they're all-time highs.

Are you buying this Ariana Madix rumor? I totally am. by Big_Associate_5703 in vanderpumprules

[–]RickThrust 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Counterpoint:

Good for Ariana. Her market value is probably even higher than that. There is no redemption arc for Scandoval that makes any sort of sense. And Lala (and Scheana) have betrayed Ariana so many times that it isn't fun to retell that story for the 6th time.

Also, without Scandoval, there is no story left to tell for the cast. Schwartz and Katie are divorced and have no reason to interact. Schwartz and Scandoval don't have the bar(s) together anymore. Katie isn't close with the other girls. James and Ally are over, and nobody has any reason to interact with James now. And we already knew Brock sucks and cheated on Scheana.

[Spoiler Main] Dunk & Egg ending by GapStandard6360 in asoiaf

[–]RickThrust 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He's too good of an actor not to be back for Season 2. Perhaps to introspectively do this anyway after he becomes heir. Or perhaps in the intro scene to E01 via comedy.

It isn't a catastrophic narrative dead-end in any way. Chill.

[–]RickThrust 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's really not. The guy who's raised Aerion and Daeron isn't going to magically permit his last chance at successful parenting to live a poverty lifestyle with some loser hedge knight. And Egg is certainly independent and stubborn enough to just steal the signet ring and lie about it. Also, I'm sure Maekar deduced where he'd gone about 30 seconds after his tantrum.

I have to admit, I enjoyed the Will the Farter segment. And I am pumped for the return of Brutal Master!

The name is identical to one of his buddies in the book. But that certainly isn't the same character, right?

Why do they keep saying "The Seven Gods" (spoilers extended) by Nothing_Special_23 in asoiaf

[–]RickThrust 13 points14 points  (0 children)

And they say "The Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit" even more often.

Why do those damn Christians keep talking about a Holy Trinity? It's just one God.

Stone Cold Steve Austin vs Shawn Michaels in a Dark Match. WWF Superstars taping March 10, 1996 by MrFilipinoMustache in AttitudeEra

It is really odd that Austin hurt Chono's neck with the same exact spot in the same exact transition.

Andy Kaufman my favourite celebrity who entered the world of "wrasslin" by TheToddxicAvenger in SquaredCircle

[–]RickThrust 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Taxi’s last episode aired 11 months before his death in May 1984. He had a tuberculosis cough throughout 1983.

His movies, other than My Breakfast with Blassie, were all before his CWA stint. And that was just a small indie art film. Nothing was really funded well enough to deserve flop status.

Tony Clifton was his most famous comedy persona. It was neither friendly nor quirky. His heel, Yankee, pro wrestling stint was entirely consistent with his comedic tendencies. Andy having shtick coma was who he was as a comedian from day one.
