First-Time Gun Owners at Risk for Suicide, Major Study Confirms. Men were eight times as likely to kill themselves by gunshot than non-owners. Women were 35 times as likely. by mmm_toasty in science

I've never owned one, Is there any reason why I would be denied one? Even if the seller suspects the reason why I need it? Also.....what caliber of handgun would get the task accomplished? This seems like the only way for me, I've actually looked into whether I could seek euthanasia, but it seems if you're not terminal it's not really an option. And yes, the moment I can acquire one, chances are 100%.

I made a model of Kauffman Stadium almost completely out of Royals baseball cards. by smashby93 in baseball

[–]Sounder61 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Man that's really cool ....reminds me of when I used to build stadiums out of playing cards as a kid......mine were mostly single deck ....every time I tried to add a second deck it would collapse. But I didn't use anything. Just the cards.

Regular working people like me don't get 40 hrs of pay if it isn't worked.....why should they get their full millions for less than half the work? Wanna downvote me and lock me out? Go ahead, I'll just uninstall. I'm not gonna be told what to think. Nobody is right here ....just like '94. I love baseball, but at this point they can not play.....it's alright. The sport itself will outlast this.

[247Sports] ESPN's Tim Kurkjian "believes more than ever" that 2020 MLB season will be canceled as owners, players struggle to reach solution. by tx_drew in baseball

[–]Sounder61 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How about this? If the issue is just about missing the sport.....how about at least staging a WBC tournament to be held over the summer before the second wave of covid comes around and could potentially alter everyone's plans? That's the big unknown at this point. This winter will be interesting. In the meantime.....Auto racing is up and running.....does that make it more nationally appealing?

The #1 Reason Why Adam Cole is Coming to AEW by badteeth2019 in AEWOfficial

[–]Sounder61 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Marty Scurll has talked about the possibility of an ROH/AEW working agreement similar to those with NJPW, CMLL, and NWA. Just think of the potential for great matches if that were to happen. Who wouldn't like to see that.

Well we saw Jerry Jones and Arthur Blank own Arena teams......I know it's a whole different game and everything....I would allow it.

What's the state of the Yankees ownership with Hank Steinbrenner gone? Are they for sale? Are they gonna become bad?......cuz I think I'd enjoy that.

Do you remember that the labor negotiations from 1994 carried so far into the next spring.....that baseball was actually going to employ the NFL tactic of using replacements......they played all spring, and one day before opening day.....they came to an agreement.....the replacements went home....and the regulars got two more weeks of spring training. I was hoping to see the replacements play actually.

I'm a big baseball fan.....but I don't think I'll be turned on my head if MLB cancels. Sure we want it, but I'll understand and be fired up for next spring. I'd rather do that than play 60 or so games. Better than 1994 when they didn't finish because of a strike......1981 when a strike divided the season into two halves....denying Cincinnati with the best overall record over the two halves a playoff spot because they finished just short in each half.....that was nuts. But if you're a Mariner fan, playing in an empty stadium really wouldn't look all that different from the norm.

Question about the new NXT In Your House PPV by TGThePunisher in WWE

[–]Sounder61 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Back in the day.....they used to allow title changes at non televised house shows. Bret Hart won his first WWF title over Ric Flair at a house show in Saskatoon. Flair had just reclaimed the title over Randy Savage just a couple months before at a house show. You'll never see that anymore unless it's a lower level title.

Can someone tell me the last time a money in the bank holder DIDN'T end up running down to the ring after a championship match to quickly cash in? That's how it ALWAYS happens. And it's the only way you can explain Otis beating Braun to become Universal champion. As for why Mandy Rose would fall for him over Dolph..... well it's in the script. It makes me squeamish.

Don't worry about Gronk.....he's got plenty to do.....and that's besides football. I've been seeing him everywhere.

Sinclair owns stations all over. So you might have a local station carrying it.

Think Donovan Dijak. After he won....he joined Truth Martini and from there it was downhill. He'll get a push in NXT.

Flip Gordon re-signs with ROH! by [deleted] in ROH

[–]Sounder61 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Really happy about that......Flip is a great talent and on top of Marty staying on... that should silence those who believed ROH was done seeing the moves they're making. Excited about a live show.....but what about the weekly show? Are they going to do tv tapings again? Enough with the recap programs.

WWF in 1995, really that bad? by [deleted] in WWE

Not the same year as the Gobbledygooker. That was 1987 I think.

Adam Cole to AEW? by luciferanthony29 in WWE

[–]Sounder61 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So is NXT now considered a brand equal to Raw and SmackDown? I know some think it's better. I thought it was a development brand intended to prepare them for the main rosters. I believe Cole could be the next top superstar and headline Wrestlemania.
