ok. i'm sort of comfortable with how this board looks for the moment. I'm wayyy late for work because of the Bevel Wagon 2. F**kin BandWagon Exalted for the hard work. It's looking good. I can do some tinkering with the rankings and whatnot during work. I like the color scheme. |

Note to self: Stop posting porno to the Bevel Wagon. Does this mean I can start selling "Jim Banko Sucks" tee-shirts again? And go tell ProBoards that I'll stop promoting alcohol and drug abuse as soon as Labatt stops tasting like Jesus. I will definitely buy a Jim Banko sucks t-shirt these days. That kid is one of the suckiest bunch of sucks that ever sucked. I'm glad this baby's up and running. Well done Cosmo. I can't say I'm upset that I don't have 500+ posts anymore. I felt like such an internet junkie, which of course I am. But now I am on my way back, baby! Maybe to get around the alcohol part, we should refer to all such beverages as 'pops.' I do that a lot anyway. You know, I threw back a couple pops last night. Nobody mention a word of this on the BANNEDwagon. It would give those smarmy toolboxes way too much satisfaction to know they got us booted from our own board. I'm sure it was one of them, probably Bonnieball or Captain Deleto. Cosmo, I'd be proud to be a moderator again, as long as I watch my language. |

As for the color scheme, my inspiration was $ymmetry's hat. |

Are we on double secret probation by proboards? I'm not sure how this hosting works, but I'd imagine Cosmo would have filled out the same information he did to host the other site.
F the BANNEDwagon.

Sigh...guess not.
My question is, did somebody drop the dime on us? I'm betting it's one of those asshats at the Bevelwagon.
ABUSE OF POWER!!!! YOU!!! ABUSE OF POWER!!!! BAN ME FROM THE BOARDS, I'M ALREADY BANNED! BAN ME, I'M ALREADY BANNED!
Ahem. Oh, by the way, on WWE Madison Square Garden Classics tonight, we have "the Colossal Jostle" between Andre the Giant and King Kong Bundy (this was a dream match when I was 13 at the time) and in the second hour, we have the FIRST meeting between Hulk Hogan and Ric Flair from 1991! I cannot overstate how HUGE this match was at the time. For ten years, fans wondered who would win in a match between WWF World Champion Hogan and NWA World Champion Flair. The biggest "holy crap" moment for me as a wrestling fan was when Bobby Heenan came out with Flair's belt on WWF television and uttered the words "Ric Flair." I'm glad it happened in the days before the internet, because it was a true shock.

Things were WAY more shocking before Al Gore invented the Internet. |

Absolutely. I can't think of any true holy crap moments after, say, 1996 or so. Lex Luger showing up on the first Nitro worked, because it was kept under wraps. Scott Hall showing up on Nitro in 1996 surprised me because, even though I knew he was jumping to WCW, I had yet to discover the wrestling internet machine until about a year later.
But like I said, Bobby Heenan taking out the REAL World Championship Belt and saying the name "Ric Flair"--which had never been uttered on a WWF broadcast--just floored me. When Heenan first held up the belt, I was like, "What's Heenan got there? It sorta looks like..." then I stopped and my eyes went wide open. "OH MY GOD!!!" I screamed.
Great stuff. Speaking of which, I was really digging last night's ECW show...until the main event. Oh God, why not build up ECW wrestlers and have them chase the Big Show, instead of just importing guys from Smackdown and RAW? I guess they're building up Sabu, though, but there's no way Sabu should speak.
