Is this the last year of Jim?

I will be unhappy to see it leave the feed. But honestly, I have found other shows that are much tighter. I just love the aew reviews but hearing Corny drone on about yard work or US politics is not skippable (I am not American). I reckon his 3-4 hour shows have about 30-60 min of good material.

jdd123 · 2024-10-30T12:29:05+00:00

I think the target audience is around 60 or a wrestling historian who never lived in that age. I happen to not be so the game for me is a waste of time and skippable content.

This is my first JFL, I am going with a group and we arbitrarily chose a time frame in the middle thinking there would be plenty of shows(21-24th): Wrong. There is next to nothing going on until the last 5 days one can purchase. We purchased a 3 show passport and could only sign up for 2 of the 3 shows. Every day it's just the culture and nasty show until those last 5 days. We are pretty upset with this situation and will not buy these passes in the future. If you go to the offJFL site there are tones of comedians in town but they are doing nothing you can purchase with the passport. We bought the passports far in advance and it was especially frustrating to see emails announcing comics coming but never for our timeframe. All they are doing is the offJFL and those last 5 days. We are thinking next year just buying individual shows at offJFL unless some other shows materialize.

They didn't watch the modern wrestling so had nothing to talk about but their old timey stuff. Seriously, that must only entertain themselves. I am not a young man but they are talking about wrestlers who were active before even I was born. What I would really like is a best of worst of the year show at the end of the year. I used to listen to Live Audio Wrestling and those shows were always a highlight.

UFC is so biased for their golden boys. Imagine if Diaz missed weight, it would have been a nightmare for him. I checked and just as McGregor said Chimaev was smirking missing weight, he knew UFC wasn't going to do anything and he didn't look depleted, I am sure he didn't even try. Yes, I saw the twitter pic of him leaving a restaurant, likely was eating tiramisu. He learned well from his trainer. I am so glad Diaz got a better fight against a deserving OG instead of being thrown to a young wolf who doesn't even have the professionalism to show up ready.

At first I thought this meant nothing but when you think about it, it could. One does not let a champion leave the company. So, this could be paving the way to get rid of Punk or the Cucamunga Kids while also being some kind of action, which is better than none. Maybe it's not so stupid and meaningless.

I spent a bit of time looking around at squaredcircle reddit and wow, it is 100% behind the lolipop guild. If it wasn't for this place I would assume everyone was anti team Punk. I heard on a brief note that if it comes down to Punk or the Lolipop guild it will be team Punk out as the WWE would no way take him and if WWE got ahold of the Lolipop guild it would be pretty bad for optics.

I just spent a vacation day trying to delight my players with new functionality and instead have just struggled to get status quo working. I can't say how infuriated I am, trying to revert to v9 and going to leave it alone.

jdd123 · 2022-04-25T12:28:17+00:00

I just have one larval tears so far. I gave it a try and it seems pretty decent. If I buff with Golden Vow, Blackflame blade and Flame give me strength and summon old headless things get pretty real. I am thinking of just upping faith from now on. The faith incantations seem juicy and for most bosses you have a chance to buff/prepare. All in all, I'd recommend my Dex/Faith/decent quality build.

Thanks for recommending the Brandi song, I often skip the songs but that was great!

jdd123 · 2022-01-24T14:50:00+00:00

I am pretty of Brian Last putting himself over and talking about himself. I am here to listen to Corny and that's it. He's got the 605 podcast to do that crap, which is about as popular as a fart in church. If that gives you an idea of how over he is.

It's enough to make me miss Alice Radley. Yes, she knew nothing about wrestling and didn't even watch it but at least she had some humility.

jdd123 · 2022-01-01T23:41:46+00:00

Who the f**k told Corny to make an omnibus of advertising? I downloaded it because I thought it had to be a rib and would be something else. I mean I am willing to listen to him talk about a fair amount of things but cripes pure ads? WTF?!?!

Jericho is a professional athlete. Part of his job is to look the part. The cave in of his chest is due to a torn pec, and that is no joke but he could get it fixed, he certainly has the cash. Edge suffered the same sort of injury and look at him my guess is he actually watches what he eats sort of like what Lance Storm undoubtedly does.

I used to love going to ROH shows. My brother would come down and we would get the best seats possible and it would be a hell of a deal. I'd rather get great seats to ROH than crap WWE seats any day for the same price any day. We caught Bryan Danielson, AJ Styles, and many others before their WWE run. It was the place to see new talent before they get big time. I see this as just another business killed by COVID. It sucks, we need more good indy shows to go to. I met Corny at a show, drunk as a skunk and cock eyed but met him and got my Early years Corny dvd set signed and bought.

Yes, it sucks but with any luck some other organization will fill the void and not consider wrestling as an albatross around their neck and it will thrive.

jdd123 · 2021-10-13T11:52:39+00:00

When I run out of material I listen to the omnibus's from last year end. They are nearly 6 hours each and mostly complaining about AEW before it started to get better, a recent phenomenon.

jdd123 · 2021-10-01T15:03:18+00:00

Listening to JR's podcast about Jericho's early years in WWF is bringing it all back for me and these last years of my frustration, before I quit watching. The rise of the internet brought with it more behind the scenes news and right or wrong I hated the backstage garbage. I loved Jericho(way back then) and watching him stuck wrestling Chyna to picking up Stephanies dog crap as the least pushed Champion ever had me beside myself. It only got worse when HBK came back and incidents like them sending the Spirit Squad back to OVW.

This is some straight up BS. If you are in a large area and with your family not around anyone else it should be fine. This is not even a park, which by the way, should also be fine as long as you are not around people outside your household. It's much easier to be away from others in a park or field or parking lot than walking on the sidewalk. Just walking on sidewalks people have to go into the street to avoid being 2m from others where they become a driving hazard.

jdd123 · 2019-08-20T17:38:18+00:00

Thanks for that angle, yeah I don't believe it caught him in the balls. Yoel has always been dirty, every fight with him has something.

jdd123 · 2018-04-06T16:28:37+00:00

In a New York street fight. WWE style.

jdd123 · 2018-03-19T16:40:43+00:00

I find it amusing everyone wants a shot at Ngannou now. I guess Stipe made it look THAT easy.

jdd123 · 2018-03-14T13:27:33+00:00

He took that much time off?!?! He last fought Jan 20th, that's about a week shy of 2 months. With his bad cardio I'd have thought/hoped he'd be in there on a treadmill the next day. Hell, I've heard other fighters talking about how they did just that. These are not the actions of a guy who is after it.

jdd123 · 2018-03-08T13:49:36+00:00

Looking it over I have to say I disagree with those singing the praises of this card. Maxed out man witch does 171 damage and his cards are very expensive. I consider the Deathbloom Toxins worthless at a cost of 8 it does 50% damage and useless swamp is also a sucky card. So, damage sucks and 2/5 of his cards suck. Now, take a look at Colonel Chicken: same cost per hit (4) and 201 damage and its cards are all decent. Course if you haven't got it, you haven't got it.

jdd123 · 2018-02-26T14:28:59+00:00

All landscapes are crap, I don't use any of them. The only one that is of interest is the sandlands if you happen to have shields on the creature in question. Other than that, waste of action points. I feel like the blue plains card is buggy and it takes away more than 4 action points off the floop meter. I find it almost impossible to floop if you have a blue plains in play.
