YES!! The WWF announced today at Wrestlemania that Wrestlemania 17 will be in the Astrodome! YES!!!!! I'm going to Wrestlemania!! ------------------ COME BACK CHARLES!
Freak: I hope that post was in jest. You insult the intelligence of wrestling fans by pointing out the obvious. Seinfeld, Cheers, Friends, ER, whatever your favorite TV show happens to be, guess what? All those are scripted and every bit as fake as wrestling. SirCharlesFan: Three words: Oh, hell yeah! Three more words: I'm there, man. ------------------ I need a new signature. 302
anything that sircharlesfan or lynus say now has been tarnished by their admission of actually liking wrestling...ER or seinfeld may indeed be scripted but I can gurantee you the intelligence level of those people who watch ER is higher than the WWF audience...i believe it may have been a proven fact and if it isnt it definitely is a forgone conclusion... I dont know maybe i am the odd man out but it seems obvious that wrestling is a classless trashy "sport"(its not a sport)that caters to the people of oklahoma and sadly its not your fault for enjoying it....you just dont really know any better.... ------------------
sirhangover, weren't you the same poster who freaked out when Jovi came in with his country's impressions of America? Then why is it you basically call Okies idiots? Aside from being an arrogant ass with your "don't know any better" comment, you're also a little hypocritical if you ask me. Plus my mom's from Oklahoma, and she hates wrestling. As for the fake thing, of course it's fake. But by now, hopefully everyone knows that, and also know that they aren't attempting to be a legitimate sport like baseball or basketball. This is sports entertainment. Some people like it, some don't. But I guarantee you that not everyone who likes wrestling is a slack-jawed yokel. That said...I hate wrestling. ------------------ Is it any coincidence that we are the only NBA (sorry for any confusion regarding my earlier signature, I do realize that the Braves and Stars are both mentioned in the national anthem) team mentioned in the national anthem? I didn't think so! [This message has been edited by Rocketman95 (edited April 04, 2000).] [This message has been edited by Rocketman95 (edited April 04, 2000).]
The idea that my vote counts exactly as much as that of a person who watches wrestling for entertainment is just about enough to convince me the Communists were right all along. ------------------ Keep the Faith... Keep the Rockets.
I don mind wrestling that much. But what annoys me are fans who quote the wrestlers too much. And people who wear those god-awful T-shierts. And paying real money for wrestling. Cmon, its just silly. ------------------ Wiz 3:16 says Walt is da man!!!
sorry about your mom...yes same guy here... you defended the german to no end for reasons that I cannot explain nor understand..you are the one coming at me again...maybe i meant arkansas... but it is neither here nor there so I am not going to mess with it... i am not arrogant i am simply stating that those who support wrestling OBVIOUSLY "dont know any better" are you willing to compromise your integrity in this board simply to go out of your way to call me out even though you ultimately agree that wrestling sucks? disagree with me if you do..but dont disagree now just because I was arguing with your german girlfiend back then...but what is the point to call me out then agree?...it makes you look well...its obvious... ------------------
Yes, it's true, I believe that wrestling sucks. You know what? I also think that ER sucks, and that Howard Stern sucks. I think that the Republican platform sucks. But, you know what else? I'm not arrogant enough to believe that those who love ER, Howard Stern, or Republicans are all stupid idiots (even though prior posts may lead some to believe that I do in fact feel that way ). I understand that other people's tastes or beliefs can be different than mine. Most are. That's what makes this country great. We can all like different things. Being a wrestling fan, an ER fan, or anything else doesn't make you an idiot. Criticizing people for that does. ------------------ Is it any coincidence that we are the only NBA (sorry for any confusion regarding my earlier signature, I do realize that the Braves and Stars are both mentioned in the national anthem) team mentioned in the national anthem?

i agree rocketman....I am not arrogant though... just to be clear though... wrestling does suck... ------------------
Ever heard of the phrase "to each his/her own?" I happen to find professional wrestling entertaining. Maybe if you'd stop knocking it and actually watch it you might find yourself impressed by some of the feats a lot of them pull off(see: the Hardy Boyz, all of WCW's cruiserweights). Now granted, much of it is fluff, but we all need some form of escapism. Going by some people's condescending opinions, I could call people idiots for playing video games, watching cartoons, or (God forbid) following professional basketball. And BK, for the record, Marx and Engels were right. ------------------ WE WILL WATCH THEM FALL... next year, at least.
GUYS...wrestling is fake. I once got a picture signed by Bobby Fulton and Tommy Rogers. See if you can tell me who they are, wrestling fans. ------------------
Freak- Please, I think EVERYONE here knows wrestling is fake. It's merely entertainment. Antisonic, I agree with your "escape" philosophy. After 14 hours of work yesterday, I turned on RAW. I find the WWF absolutely hilarious. It's a vice. Not that I go around promoting the fact, but yes, I sometimes watch. And sir, I couldn't help but notice that in your labeling of WWF fans as "unintelligent" you misspelled "guarantee." (Will this get moved to the spelling thread?) ------------------
"The Midnight Express" sounds right and Jim Cornett sounds right for the team manager. Mango ------------------ It could be worse ....... you could have been born a Jazz fan!!!!
I used to believe wrestling was real. That is simply because I was around 8 years old and also believed in Santa Claus and the Tooth Fairy. You, Sirhangover are an arrogant ass for proclaiming that wrestling fans "don't know any better." What kind of f*cked up view is that? I'm not from Oklahoma or Arkansas (like that makes a difference). I'm an educated man and so are all of my college buddies that watch wrestling with me. I like the WWF, I like "Married with Children," and I like the Jerry Springer show, all of which have been accused of being trashy TV. If you have a problem with that, then you can take your stereotyped, prejudiced views and blow them out your ass. Its pretty obvious to me who the ones are who "just don't know any better." ------------------ I need a new signature. 302
alright, im a wrestling fan, but it doesn't mean im not educated. I m a junior at UT, so this fan of rasslin managed to make it into a pretty decent Univ. tommy rogers and bobby fulton were the fantastics i believe. the midnight express was bobby eaton and dennis condrey. used to watch them when i was a kid. ------------------ "Don't they get cable in Canada ?" Keith olbermann, after watching hakeem block terry catledge's shot 5 times.
Yes, gr8-1 gets the prize. Nice try Mango. Don't forget about Rick Morton and Robert Gibson. C'mon Redglare, you and I both know wrestling is fake, don't try to tell me otherwise. ------------------
TheFreak, Lets see if I get the second question right. Rock-n-Roll Express Mango ------------------ It could be worse ....... you could have been born a Jazz fan!!!!
