These Saturday cards are great when you have to get up early on Sunday, but it really messes with my internal clock. Which was distracted by the Stanley Cup Final last night and I didn’t ask the crew for their picks until late this morning. So, let’s just build a three-week break into this PredictionsContinue reading “We’re Cashing in On Ourselves”

Let’s Get Ready to Not Get Ourselves Sued – Royal Rumble Predictions
It’s weird to say that on the first day of February we’re just getting in our first predictions of the year, but that’s the way the calendar crumbles. These may look a little different as well, as this is the only time we set up a points system but that also allows us to tryContinue reading “Let’s Get Ready to Not Get Ourselves Sued – Royal Rumble Predictions”
2024 Finisher Awards
You thought we forgot about these, didn’t you? Well, we did. Kinda. So mea culpa is that we actually did an season premiere episode talking and arguing about these and the recordings didn’t cooperate and were accidentally poo. Not the show quality, that’s always poo.

Just if you runContinue reading “Retro Review: Survivor Series 2014”

No time for hyperbole and such. These early PPV starts do not mix with my day gig and noon kickoffs.
