Hogan back with the WWE. -- nm - Remlik Jan 8, 18:38 5
- Just saw them say the network includes all the PPVs. -- nm - Tim Jan 8, 18:42 4
  - wow. I'm behind....price point? -- nm - Remlik Jan 8, 18:43 2
    - $10/month. Seems to be an on demand app on computers and mobile devices. -- nm - Tim Jan 8, 18:43 1
      - Interesting....I'd prefer an actual carrier, because computer bandwidth hasn't worked well for ROH. -- nm - Will Hunting Jan 8, 18:45
  - Wow. I guess they'll still run them concurrently on PPV for those who don't wanna pay monthly. - Will Hunting Jan 8, 18:43
At 2pm they announced schools would be on a 2 hour delay tomorrow. The system just called back to inform that they revised and schools are closed. - Spawn Jan 8, 18:02 5

- I ordered it yesterday, but my dad still has my PS4 so I haven't played it. -- nm - Ender Jan 8, 17:57
hmmm....After reading the backboards about Star Wars and Disney makes me think that both Star Wars and the Muppets are in the wrong hands. - the liioulu with Jan 8, 17:48 9
- Kathleen Kennedy is running Star Wars...it will be fine. -- nm - Remlik Jan 8, 18:32
- pixar itself has sure seen better days. but i'm all for disney ruining star wars....nm - x Jan 8, 18:28
- The new muppets movies looks more awful than can be described. -- nm - MDH Jan 8, 17:58 6

  - It's a team of egoless role players. I really enjoy them now that Josh Smith is gone. -- nm - David Jan 8, 18:44
Bravely Default is a very odd new form of the usual Squeenix Final Fantasy game. You can bank turns, or get an advance on them in hopes of vanquishing - Qale Jan 8, 17:40 2
- I'm enjoying it so far. It has a different feel to it, and I like the jobs (which I know aren't different, but feels FF Tactics-ish). -- nm - Kim Pine Jan 8, 17:45 1
  - I think it's a no brainer purchase. And makes me wonder what takes them so damn long to print money. -- nm - Qale Jan 8, 17:48

    - I would have choosen Liara -- nm - eag Jan 8, 18:18
It sounds like Penn State will have a new head football coach tomorrow. -- nm - Don Homer Jan 8, 17:33

  - At $200, with that piece count, it's a very good deal. Especially for a licensed set. -- nm - TWuG Jan 8, 16:56 2
    - Right, if you start from the assumption that "all Lego sets costs 4x more then they should" then that's not bad. -- nm - Ender Jan 8, 18:06
    - Yup. I can't wait to put it together. -- nm - Krusty Jan 8, 17:22

    - The stats from 2000 edge out his 99 stats, but he was downright scary in 99. I'll never forget his playoff performance that year. -- nm - Don Homer Jan 8, 17:39
    - I saw Pedey's performance with my own eyes. stunning is the only way to describe it. -- nm - Mel Profit Jan 8, 17:03
- Funny thing ..I remember his start with the Cubs ... wasnt much then -- nm - budice Jan 8, 16:41 1
  - But the fans loved him, because he always made time for them. -- nm - the liioulu with Jan 8, 17:20

Crazy MLB HOF fact of the day - Strongbad Jan 8, 15:31 8
- because its tougher to cheat in college baseball than football? - crash davis Jan 8, 15:38
- Cause tis MLB not NFL? -- nm - JD Jan 8, 15:38 1
  - Miss St, LSU and So Carolina are all extremely strong baseball programs. -- nm - Strongbad Jan 8, 15:43
- Cuz I'd wager most HOFers get direct from high school. -- nm - Will Hunting Jan 8, 15:33 4
  - That would be a fascinating factoid to research. -- nm - David Jan 8, 15:34 3
    - Here is the list of College Baseball Hall of Famers so a quick assumption that any MLB HOFers would show here.... - Will Hunting Jan 8, 16:17
    - Yeah. I tired searching, but didn't turn up anything. I'm not about to go 1 x 1... -- nm - Don Homer Jan 8, 16:01
