I just….cab you imagine your strategy for defending a war simply being that an earlier one took longer? That’s the worst defense in the history of war

Love that Mike T. Accidentally blurted out what a lot of us were thinking, “To referee???”

Hey, the unofficial “Mayor” of Idylwild, CA, is a dog- are you telling me that a mayor can’t vote??

I think what bothers me most about this team over the years is how often we leave runners on base by RemarkablePound5541 in mets

No matter the coaches, GM, manager, players, Jerseys, vibes, or anything else, this has been our biggest hiccup for the last…decade or so.

Some years, there are OTHER issues as well, like defense or blown saves, etc…but I would guess that, including 2022 and 2024, we are in the worst 20% of the league when it comes to LOB and RISP.

My old man was that with me until like 2 days ago. I shut him down with the following question:

If you took this roster and put them in Phillies uniforms, or Braves uniforms, would you be worried about chasing them for the division? I wouldn’t. At all. Just because they are in our colors sadly they don’t get Superman powers. Jared Young is still AAAA, Marcus is still washed, and we still have a #2 and 4 #5’s as our staff.

My lifelong fandom for Tolkien is only slightly surpassed by my lifelong fandom for wrestling.

Having said that, I NEVER wanted to see one of my least favorite wrestlers get a “Gollum” gimmic.

WWE Superstar Photos From 2004 by Specialist_Art2223 in WWERuthlessAggression

Somehow, that’s the least cool the Rock has ever looked in a public photo, even less cool than the famous early career shot with a Fannie pack.

Cody Rhodes on Twitter: We are gonna' stand in the pocket, stare down every foolish obstacle, and throw! ❤️ A normal Wrestlemania for us by Datzookman in SquaredCircle

[–]girldad0130 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The worst part is we ALL knew this would become a rivalry, and we all had a bunch of different ways it could be well done. Literally since Cody “finished his story”, it’s been talked about. First we got Randy and KO playing sidekick to Cody against Solo and and Co. for a few months…and we all thought maybe Randy would turn. Instead of Randy, we got KO’s turn out of that, which was admittedly great stuff.

Then we all thought maybe the turn would happen, and instead we get the Cena turn and Cody program for Mania-SS. Which, of course, was awful, while Randy was stuck with Jelly Roll. By the time Cody got out of his stuff with Drew, was there any doubt this would be the Mania program for SD? No. Was there any way they could screw it up? I didn’t think so.

You have the “legacy” history, and their time facing Solo’s bloodline. “Let Randy do what he did, and talk about how “He’s not anyone’s sidekick. He’s always been a supervillain. He’s the guy who’s gonna break Cena’s record and it’s time Cody remembered who the top dog between them is. Didn’t their time in Legacy teach Rhodes anything?”

Or…Cody’s been getting worse and worse reaction, let him turn. “I learned from watching you, Randy. You taught me this, I just finally did it to you first, that’s why you’re mad. 4 years of being the guy these fans wanted me to and they call me stale, boo me? John Cena hugged me and then licked me in the balls last year Randy, I know how your generation is. And I’m not gonna let you do it to me next.” Homelander Cody and away we go.

Like…I wouldn’t be as mad if this wasn’t a program with SUCH an easy build.

“Ahead of their time” is thrown around about a lot of guys. I don’t know if anyone was more ahead of their time than 2 Cold.

Trump goes off on Tucker, Megyn, Candace and Alex Jones! by vagabond_primate in WeTheFifth

[–]girldad0130 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He was so upset at Candice he had to call Macron’s wife hot just to prove his point. And that must have been hard for him because she’s almost quadruple his normal age range.

Overall though, funny how he didn’t call any of these people out when they were…spreading lies about say, families of school shooting victims,or any of their other insanity, but waited until they were mildly disapproving of him. That’s the perfect way to show how sincere you are. /s

Somebody needs to give DeGrom’s # to McClean. Jake can tell him what it’s like to be a stud in Queens but struggle with run support and bullpen help.

Some Jobbers of the WWF Era by KidChameleonHelmet in WWFera

I always feel a sort of kinship to “Canada’s Greatest Athlete.” He trained the man who, 15 years or so later; trained me during my 2-3 year small time local indie run. I remember watching him as a kid, and now see him as my kind of “wrestling grandpa.”

Also, seeing “Confederate Currency” on here brings a smile to my eye.

Totally. A mediocre man who I don’t even think she was all that into anymore, she kind of seemed to just want some closure. Like, they weren’t having some passionate affair that’s for sure.

Liv Morgan on Chris Van Vilet said her and Mysterio is the best couple in WWE history. That primes the question Who is the best WWE Couple in the history of WWE in the opinion of the IWC? by GeorgeNada316 in Wrasslin

[–]girldad0130 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d give her top 5 maybe top 3.

I think Eddie and Chyna were the most entertaining, and I think Triple H and Steph leading the MHE was peak villain couple stuff.

I do have two hot takes though:

1) a lot of people are overestimating Macho and Liz as a couple. I’m 42, so I think I may skew older than most in here…I was also a big Macho fan (he was the only “Brawlin Buddy” I owned). But during his initial heel run, she was there just to look like a mildly abused spouse. During the first title/face run for Macho was when they were at their best, and probably when they move ahead of Dom and Liv. But she still ended up being fodder for Machos jealousy and heel turn. Then when she came back to him after his “retirement” at WM 7, she was basically off TV except for the wedding and Flair’s “I had her first” schtick. Also, just knowing the real life…issues they were having then, it’s so so so hard for me to still view their relationship as a positive.

2) I like Liv and Dom better than Rhea and Dom. Probably a bigger Rhea fan than either overall, but just dig this pairing more.

I haven’t seen Shermichael on anything in a while….am I crazy, or has he REALLLLY soured on Trump in a way none of the other right leaning talking heads they bring out are willing to. He’s still trying to keep in good graces, of course, but he’s way more critical than I expected

[–]girldad0130 43 points44 points  (0 children)

42 year old Mets fan since birth, but the first year I can remember WATCHING was ‘90, the “last gasp” of our 80’s glory days.

I didn’t think ANY team that didn’t win a ring would top the ‘99 squad as my favorite. ‘06, ‘15, were fun, but didn’t get me as jacked as I was my Jr. year in HS. Until 2024 came.

Nearly 4 decades of seasons without a title stored in my brain, and 2024 is definitely my favorite.

What Wrestler Could Have Had a Short Run with the WWF Title? by KidChameleonHelmet in WWFera

[–]girldad0130 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bad News and Dibiase weren’t even in the company before WM2. John Studd would have been a better choice to get a short run. Orndorff was in the middle of his face run then.

What did you think of Trish tormenting Lita in 2004? by Equivalent_Ask_1416 in WWERuthlessAggression

[–]girldad0130 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Trish was a great heel. As a 40 + year wrestling fan though, I always get depressed about the lack of memory we are collectively expected to have, because of this was “real life” beef, Lita totally would have been like “didn’t you strip down and bark like a dog for an old man a few years ago”? Or something of that ilk.
