        tna for sure. in the wwe there aren't alot of people around when the macho man was with the company - dogbert May 20, 09:51 1
        
        Taker and HBK are the only 2 ... Savage left in 93/94....only Taker's still active there from that time frame. -- nm - Will Hunting May 20, 09:57
  - I wouldn't hold your breath on that. -- nm - Will Hunting May 20, 09:42 25
    - I don't know the history, but sounds like a feud with Vince (surprise!). But fans will probably show up dressed in tribute and/or with signs right? - ty97 May 20, 09:49 15
      - I wonder if they would go as far as to remove signs -- nm - dogbert May 20, 09:53 1
        
        It would be a good opportunity for the resident heel to come out dressed as him. - groiny May 20, 09:58
      - I've heard it described in this way...There's only 2 guys Vince would never work with again.... - Will Hunting May 20, 09:53 12

        Buff Bagwell. nm -- nm - groiny May 20, 09:54 10
        
        I haven't heard that's a no-go, but mainly cuz Bagwell can't draw money now. - Will Hunting May 20, 09:55 9
        
        well he totally sucked in his first match when he was on Raw. -- nm - Remlik May 20, 10:00 8
        
        Right, but that's not enough; hell, Vince took Hogan back and Hogan testified to put Vince in prison. - Will Hunting May 20, 10:02 2
        
        Vince owes about 85% of his fortune to Hogan. nm -- nm - groiny May 20, 10:05 1

        they threw that match together last minute, and they were in limbo for a while - groiny May 20, 10:01 4
        
        That Booker T/Bagwell match was the final nail through WCW. - Name Withheld By Request May 20, 10:02 3
        
        It really was, and I was the biggest Buff fan in the universe. - groiny May 20, 10:03 2
        
        The entire Buff hiring was hysterical.....he threw the name out in the middle of that promo just to hear crickets and - Will Hunting May 20, 10:04 1
        
        such a waste. nm -- nm - groiny May 20, 10:05

Rapture related poll: I guess there's a part of human nature that looks *forward* to the end, maybe to reduce the mystery of existence. So, 1-10... - Dr.Vermin May 20, 09:35 3
- you spelled "misery" wrong -- nm - I'm sure there's a great joke nick for this. May 20, 09:36 2

- heh, but, uh, what do you do with baby possums your cat brings home? -- nm - Andie May 20, 09:35 1

- Ah, well in this case, the Cochrane Round One strategy would be to stand pat. - Name Withheld By Request May 20, 09:33
- It's a pretty dope tell, when you're only typing words into Facebook and don't have to look anyone in the eye, and still get bullseyed from 18 choices -- nm - TFox May 20, 09:32 8
  - I tried to be VERY careful with what I typed. I almost typed something (I thought) that might cause suspicion. -- nm - JaxSean May 20, 09:38 7
    - I was trying to be careful, too. And at the same time, I knew the foxes would ambush me. - Kim Pine May 20, 09:42 6
      - I can't get over the insidiousness of this game. If you're vocal and good at the reasoning, you get killed by foxes. If you don't post enough, you're - mara May 20, 09:45 2
        
        Well, the game is based on deception and death. Paranoia is rather appropriate. :) -- nm - Dr.Vermin May 20, 09:53
        
        foxes are dumbasses -- nm - JenBro May 20, 09:46
      - I hypothesized it might have been because of you being able to strategize with your S.O. - thus with you they had sort of 2 kills? -- nm - JenBro May 20, 09:45 2
        
        he really didn't jump in until I'd already decided on my ambush. He kind of went through it all afterward and came to the same decision. - Kim Pine May 20, 09:46 1
        
        *wishes I had someone I could strategize with* -- nm - JenBro May 20, 09:47

  - What am I missing? Why wasn't this called out in the discussion? - ty97 May 20, 09:35 10
    - It was mentioned, but yeah, we need to suggest some discretion on these "DAY __ Voting" threads. - Dr.Vermin May 20, 09:39 1
      - point taken ^5 -- nm - JenBro May 20, 09:43
    - There was definitely discussion of znu being sketch, because that was what caught my eye/vote. -- nm - TFox May 20, 09:37 7
      - yep - he was just acting...off. -- nm - Kim Pine May 20, 09:38 6

        You were at the top of my suspicion list for awhile with your self-voting shenanigans. -- nm - Dr.Vermin May 20, 09:42 4
        
        yeah I get that, but really, it isnt outside of my normal - tRuMaN May 20, 09:48
        
        I noticed this last game too. It behooves the hens to follow the pack unless they really feel strongly not to. - TFox May 20, 09:45 1
        
        I think you can dissent, but you need to make an argument for why. - Name Withheld By Request May 20, 09:52
        
        me too. -- nm - Kim Pine May 20, 09:43

  - "Takes a helluva pitcher to go 26 starts without a win." - Name Withheld By Request May 20, 09:32 2
    - That's amazing. -- nm - TFox May 20, 09:38 1
      - I thought he was going to get it three starts ago, but (David alert) Yunel Escobar had a rare error on a throw and cost the tying run in late innings. - Name Withheld By Request May 20, 09:42
Isn't it a wonderful day? nm - Dignan May 20, 09:26 4

  - any word on the name? Will it be Jets? -- nm - Beaker May 20, 09:35 2
    - The strong rumour around town is that the new owner wants to "promote" the Manitoba Moose to the big leagues, but I'm vehemently opposed to that. - Name Withheld By Request May 20, 09:36 1
