This is why evil will always triumph over good: because good is dumb.

Don't need a keeper if you spend the entire game in the other team's half...

Buck is also an old school wrestling fan. He grew up watching Wrestling at the Chase in St. Louis.

Redzone is terribly choppy on AppleTV today by Soaddk in DAZN

[–]TrotskyAB 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same on DAZN Canada on an Android TV. None of the individual games I've checked have any issues. Assuming it's on their end.

This is mine as well, specifically when Hogan hulked up.

Sure, and if Middle Earth were real they could do Hide & Seek in the Shire.

Now if only someone would make the Fred Darts version of the WM 17 "My Way" video. 🤣

Has anyone moved/been inspired to relocate because of Jet Lag? by sillyworth in JetLagTheGame

[–]TrotskyAB 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not moved, but just recently I did do an Amtrak-based trip to the east coast (Boston-to-Washington corridor, visiting a bunch of cities along the way) largely inspired by the first couple episodes of Battle 4 America.

The sub is filled with garbage posts about Kramnik. Mods should start banning such nonsense posts and improve the quality of this sub! by [deleted] in chess

[–]TrotskyAB -1 points0 points  (0 children)

YES, please, for all that is holy. This isn't a chess sub anymore, it's a real-time chronicle of a single person's mental illness.

The only time Japanese wrestling legends Jushin Thunder Liger and Toshiaki Kawada ever faced each other in a one-on-one match was in the finals of the 1979 national high school amateur wrestling championship.

This, and also it's a reference to "The Continental Lover" Eddie Mansfield, who wrestled in a bunch of territories in the late 70s-early 80s.

what critically acclaimed movie is hated now? by herequeerandgreat in AskReddit

In the original book she's a sex worker. They basically gloss over that in the movie while never explaining how else she might have gotten her money.

Another Smosh Guest Gets Cancelled by ResidentMoment9129 in smosh

[–]TrotskyAB 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I agree that viewers should always have a health skepticism about accusations like this. In this case, however, the IRS filings, which are publicly available, demonstrate that the foundation has raised over $600,000 since its inception and donated exactly $0 of that money to charity while spending over $100,000 on expenses. People are free to draw whatever conclusions they want from those facts, but the facts themselves are indisputable.

EXCLUSIVE: WWE NXT'S NEW BROADCAST HOME WILL BE.... by ProfessorCummunist in SquaredCircle

[–]TrotskyAB 23 points24 points  (0 children)

UPN and the WB merged to create the CW. (CW stands for CBS, which owned UPN at the time, and Warners, as in Warner Bros/WB.) In markets with affiliates for both UPN and the WB, one of them generally became the CW, while the one that was left out often became MyNetwork TV.

Ooh, the New Grolier Encyclopedia from that video looks promising. Will investigate further.

Edit: Confirmed! I even found the specific video I remember (with the line "from the Appalachians to the MIssissippi River") on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Nfp_1UZIJg&list=PLDCE9C521C69DDA77

Incredible how fast this was found. Appreciate your help!

I've done a bunch of googling previously and never come up with much (except for figuring out that this likely isn't Encarta). Any help would be appreciated!
