Eat my shorts, Shelbyville

Well, I was trying to update a little earlier this week, but today is the first day I haven't had much to do. Well, it sounds like everyone is doing well from what I am reading in the blog and xanga world. So I'll get to mine.

I will begin with what I witnessed Sunday night at WWE's Unforgiven. It was an awesome night. It was sort of different not having commentary to listen, but it was still awesome hearing the sounds of the wrestlers. The atmosphere was exciting. My friend Eric and I were able to get tickets only 4 rows behind Josh so it was cool and even more entertaining because he was there. The signs I made were: "You Suck", "No Chance", "Zach", and "Josh Sucks" (mainly a joke because of him dating me as a wrestling fan). Anyways, when I got to the door we had to show them our signs and the lady who looked at it said that I couldn't have a sign that says "suck" on it. I was like, are you kidding me. That is Kurt Angle's whole theme for the fans. She wasn't kidding and I had to trash. But what do I find inside, tons of signs that say suck on them. But even without my signs, it was still awesome. Here was the top matches of the night.

6) Chris "The Materbate, I mean Masterpiece" Masters vs. "The Heartbreak Kid" Shawn Michaels. - A lot of great wrestling moves. Really I don't remember much about this match, except for HBK giving some Sweet Chin Music to Masters for the match.
Winner: HBK
Highlights: The Sweet Chin Music

5) Big Show vs. Snitsky - This match brought back a lot of memories of the style of wrestling I enjoyed back in the day. It was mostly dominated by the Big Show. It was an awesome match ending in a chokeslam by the Big Show. After the match, he took the ring bell and clobbered Snitsky with it.
Winner: Big Show
Highlights: The Big Show's choke slam and at one point in the match, he silenced the crowd (Shhhhhhhhhhhh) and chopped Snitsky's chest really frickin' hard that it echoed throughout the Ford Center.

4) Kurt Angle cs. John Cena - Even though this was the title match, it wasn't the greatest. It had some good wrestling, moves, and action, but there was some points during the match where it became stale and boring. But still a seasoned professional in Angle and a new face Cena put on a good match. I have been in tune with Cena for a while and it seems that he is and OK face, but the storyline from last month with Chris Jericho trying to take the title from Cena resembled Angles' stint with Cena and it is getting old. I realize that it is mostly the hate of RAW manager Eric Bischoff (whom I can't stand). I mean come one, I knew the title match for Unforgiven a month ago. What ever happened to #1 contender matches? and the drama of finding out the match a week ahead of time. Anyways, I thought Angle was going to win, but I thought wrong.
Winner: John Cena
Highlights: Eric Bischoff interrupting the match and Cena giving him the FU, Cena's FU to Angle on the Spanish Annoucer's table, and Josh's consistent booing of John Cena and shouting his feelings about the match.

3) Ric "The Nature Boy" Flair vs. Carlito - I have never liked Carlito ever since I first saw him wrestle. Nothing about him makes me interested in watching him. But together with Flair they put on a great show. The croud shouted many "Wooooo's" all night long and also "You tapped out" referring to last weeks RAW match. The match consisted of some great taunting with the Flair walk, the loud slaps and chops of the Nature Boy rang throughout the audience, and a really exciting match. It ended with Flair getting Carlito in a Figure Four Leg Lock and Carlito tapped out.
Winner and new Intercontinental Champion: Ric Flair
Highlights: Watching the 16 time WWF Champion still competing at 50 yrs of age.

2) Matt Hardy vs. Edge - It was definitely the greatest match of the evening. A 15 ft steel cage was lowered down and the match begun. Neither has lost their high flying, entertaining moves. Lita came out with Edge and the match began. It took them a while to start using the cage as a weapon. But when it did, the blood ran and the match became a lot more interesting. At one point, Hardy had Edge down and out and Lita entered the ring to help Edge. But Hardy gave her the Twist of Fate and put her down and out for the match. Edge then speared Hardy. But a few moments later they were both on the ropes fighting and Hardy knocked Edge off onto the mat. Matt then finished climbing the 15 ft steel cage and and finished Edge off with a 15 ft leg drop. Talk about Sweet.
Winner: Matt Hardy
Highlights: The whole match, but the best was Lita recieving the Twist of Fate and Hardy's leg drop from the top of the cage.

1) Monday Night RAW - Gotcha! Most of you were thinking that this was the #1 match, but is the match before this. Hardy and Edge. But RAW on Monday night was great. Bischoff and Angle came out and Bischoff begins to say that Kurt won the match at Unforgiven, therefore he says he is stripping Cena of the WWE Championship Belt. As he is about to announce that Angle is WWE Champion; "No chance, that's what you've got, I said No Chance" hits and Vince McMahon comes out. He tells Bischoff that he can't strip Cena of his title and because of this stunt he tried to pull, he will be facing Cena in two weeks at the WWE Homecoming for the title.
Ahhhhh, wrestling. Great stuff


Onto my struggling Oklahoma Sooners. (Let me begin with this, OU fans are a spoiled bunch, especially in the past 4 years. So when you hear OU fans whining, tell them to suck it up, cry me a river, build a bridge, and get over it. Hopefully this stint of rebuilding will filter out the bandwagon fans. It has started with the media, OU finally has a night game against K-State.) I was so frustrated watching the game on Saturday. I didn't even watch the majority of the 4th quarter. But, I did see some improvement in the offense. Bomar passed for 250 yards and they rushed for 150. It was not a lost cause. I am glad to see changes Stoops is making. OU has this week off, they play Kansas St, and then it's off to play the confident Longhorns. OU should be able to beat K-State. Well, I said should against the first 3 teams they played so we will see how that goes. The Texas game would be a great win. Right now most will say it won't happen which is about 75% right, but we will know more in a couple of weeks. Despite my frustration I do see improvement in the making.

Other great news is that OKC will be hosting the New Orleans Hornets franchise this season. I think it is great that OKC gets a chance to prove to many people that OKC is a great city for major league sports. They may not be the greatest team , but many people including myself will be able to see their first NBA game ever. And the ticket prices and dirt cheap. Should be a great time.
Check this out, MxPx has a new video out. It is Wrecking Hotel Rooms. I'm not sure what to think of it, but it's better than Heard that Sound. But that isn't saying much. Gotta go.

Kids, let me tell you about another so-called wicked guy. He had long hair and some wild ideas. He didn't always do what other people thought was right. And that man's name was... I forget. But the point is... I forget that, too. Marge, you know what I'm talking about. He used to drive that blue car?

Alright so I lied, I'm not going to edit my previous blog. I'm going to write a new one. Is it just me or does it bother everyone else to have someone else pull out in front of them and then go slow and then have the balls to turn a mile down the road. I think to myself (besides my random cussing and sometimes gestures) there is not one person behind me for miles and you have to pull out in front of me. It just ruins the day. But that is probably why I have heard to messages about self control in the past 2 days. Hmmmmmmm, think I should take a hint.

Well, it's time. 3 more days until the first ever payper view in Oklahoma, Unforgiven. I'm really excited, this is my first WWE event. I am going to be making a few signs. Here are some I'm thinking of: "It doesn't matter what your name is", "You Suck", "Suck It", "What?", or "Know Your Role". Just some ideas. Give me some help here, comment and leave your ideas no matter what they are.

Well, I bought the new Switchfoot album, "Nothing is Sound" and what I've listened to so far, it's pretty good. But hopefully I give give a more detailed review soon. Also, what's up with everyone getting a xanga? It's like I missed reading for a week and now Dustin, Becca, and Brad . What's going on with the craziness.

Well, I told you that I would give my pick for the OU/UCLA game. They have a couple of star players, but so does OU. It should be a pretty good game. I think OU picks up themselves and shows that they are not going to fade this season, but get the Sooners back to National Prowess. Especially with Ben and Co. at the game. OU wins by 4
OU 28
UCLA 24

PS. Oh, and I have updated and added some new links. Well, new for me such as some new xangas and updated links. Check ya later.

Hey, I'm a blogging machine. It's my second time in a week to blog. Yeahh for me. Anyways, it seems like everyone has a xanga now. I really need to update my links, but don't have time right now. Well, my Sooners finally got in the win column this previous weekend. It wasn't the greatest game I have seen but they won. I can't complain. Peterson finally showed his Heisman-like abilities against Tulsa. Yes, it is Tulsa, but he racked up 220 yards. The greatest play was the 4th and 1 call where he plowed over someone at the line of scrimmage and then rumbled 41 yds for the touchdown. It was a frustrating game, but I stayed and finished it out. I am still an OU fan. I stay until the last tick of the clock goes to 0:00. There has only been one time that I left early and that was when Texas A&M kicked the crap out of us. One thing that I was excited about was my pick for the Tulsa game. Go scroll down and check it out. Go ahead, I'll wait. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------Still waiting----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Finally, what took so long. That's right, I was only a point away from the score. This week I am not sure how we will do. I have a feeling that it will be closer than people think. I am not sure about a pick yet, but I will re-edit this post and add it in here when the time comes.

Finally, I am really peeved about one thing. NOTRE Frickin' DAME!!!! What the
f*%^? Come on. They won one game and they jumped into the top 25. They win their second game (yes I realize it was Michigan) and they jumped 10 spots into the top 10.
Could the media be anymore of a Notre Dame homer? The only good thing that could come of out Notre Dame is that they could beat USC; along with Oregon and Arizona State. Go everyone playing USC. I won my first Fantasy Football game on Yahoo. Yeahh. Oh, and I figured out what I did wrong with the College Pickem. It's Sooner Road not Sooner Land. Doh!!!!!! I think you can still join if you want to. I'll even make a new entry to make it even. Remember "Sooner Road" and "stoops". Check ya later.

Oh no, we suck again!!!

Hey guys and gals. I'm back. No, I haven't been hiding from the critics for OU's loss to TCU. I have taken my shots and will continue to take shots from you all. I was a fan that complains, but I think that I have a right to. I did not leave the game early. That is a no-no. (I have only done that once in the 10+ years I have been attending OU games. I am now going to recall all of my predictions in my last post. I would be surprised if we finised the season 11-1. I am thinking more of a 8-3 or so. What was I and everyone else thinking. OU lost so many players. You can't replace a Jason White, Dan Cody, Jamaal Brown, etc. But I will know more in the coming weeks. I think if anyone can pull off a turn around, it is Stoops. As the weeks progress, the more we will know. I was and still am ripping Chuck "Third and" Long for being so vanilla in his play calling. He can be good, but he is so frustrating. Let's have some creativity when calling plays. Don't be so predictable. This put the Sooner Nation in a State of Emergency. TCU? Come on. Well, can't do much about it now. They need to grow and get more experience. Onto Tulsa; they are not much of a team, but neither was TCU or so we all thought. OU finds some offense and Adrian Peterson finally makes over 100 yards.
OU 31
Tulsa 14

I apologize about the College Football Pickem. I must have told you something wrong. My fault totally.
