  2. Maybe, maybe not. So, I'll hedge and say that the Earth and its monkeys and typewriters and people to read Hamlet won't last long enough to see the first dirty joke
  3. As a betting man, it's wiser to push all in on the monkeys' first attempt.
  4. The monkey + typewriters + time = Hamlet bit is built on the assumption that the universe and time will keep going indefinitely. But, the universe won't keeping going. It will end at some point. More importantly for our Shakespeare monkeys, it will end before a single act is written.
  5. Which wrestler on your team do you hate the most? OSU - Chris Perry . . . Put your goddamn foot on the starting line.
  6. You know that this line was not originally in John? I didn't until recently. Apparently, the adultery story was added by scribes translating the source into Latin. about hundred years after the first appearances of the gospel.
  7. It would be cool if Aaron Brooks could tell us how Matthew and Luke grew out of Mark, how this impacted his understanding of what Jesus said on the cross, and what role this understanding plays in his decision to beat people up on the mat. No cap. I sincrerely want their faith to be more than a collection of cliches.
  8. How theologically literate are these guys? Can they discuss Anslem's onotological proof? Augustine's just war? Gnosticism? Jesus's connection to Jewish apocalypticism? Do they read Greek and Hebrew?
  9. Maybe they all just look gassed bc of the stuff that is endorsed by OkSt. I'm sure it just the chicken little in me, but the Cowboys have recently (since Collica-era) looked both sucked out and smaller than their opponents (chris perry -- who was absolutely monstrous-- and Joe Smith -- who looked cuddley -- being the exceptions that prove the rule).
  10. Certainly, but how would we deal with tu quoque responses? Would it be ok if a coach vocally/publically supported those athletes who followed the prophet Nas and his dictum "Life's a bitch and then you die"? You know, we are all aleays already dead? This faith also emphasizes just how insignificant wrestling is in the grand scheme of things
  11. Duhh. My bad. What about guys that weren't champs at the lower weight?
  12. "Look like my ... " There's a million punchlines here, but you flubbed it. Great set up though.
  13. Anybody care to make a list of finalists who moved up and won? I'm sure I'm just fixated on those who haven't and so I am drawing a blank.
  14. Yup. Proves that I know absolutely nothing about pro wrestling.
  15. The WWE thing hasn't worked out for Gable. Judging by the fan reaction to his debut, he doesn't have whatever it is that makes folks watch it. To the untrained eye, it looks like he can't effortlessly make an ass of himself.
  16. I must have missed something. Why are you slagging Bono?
  17. I might have subconsciously posted this bc I wanted to tell a story about my friend who died about this time 20~ years ago. 5'4", 142 lb, recruited out of Bolles, FL, most laid back (aka stoned) guy ever. One fall weekend night in school we were doing stupid undergrad things, walking with a couple of wrestlers and this 7' basketball player (Chase something). It was a largish, supremely odd looking group, and we took up the sidewalk. Who do we see walking up by? Tiki Barbour (sp?). The fb player made indications that we ought to move off the sidewalk. My friend was having none of it. So, he grabbed Tiki Barbour by the belt and the back of the shirt and threw him in the street. We kept walking and just laughed and laughed. Rest in Weed, MW.
  18. I disagree if your worry is going to jail. Hot heads = cops = lawyers = broke. Measured guys might be more dangerous, but I'm never gonna find out bc I'm not an asshole who gets it street fights.
