Some could use the Esther Halloween mask from Sanford and Son fame:
PC: Gimmy here's you'un a gift.
GG: This is just a piece of plastic.
PC: Hold it up to you'un face, that's you'un Halloween mask.
Saw a clip of Busch on the WWF last night.
The most corrupt sport meets the moost legit sport.
In the 70's pro wrestling was pathetic. Fat guys walloring around in the ring and fat women in the stands getting sweaty. The NFL, MLB, NBA and Nascar were legit because MEN played the game for love of the game. Money had not ruined it. They also relaized it was a kid's game and acted like men. Integrity. Class. Take Ted Willaims. He left MLB to be a Navy pilot in WWII. The year he hit .400, going into the last game his average was .396. Sports writers told him he should sit out the last game and they would round off his average to .400 and give him credit for the first player to hit .400. What did Ted do? He played, went 4 for 5 and broke a real .400 average. Can you imagine these snot nosed pros today.
Today we have the inverse. Pro wrestling is legit. They don't care if you believe it or not, it's entertainment. But the other sports, bwahahahahahahaha. Rotten as a left over fish head in a Toyota engineers fridge. Boys playing a boys game and acting like babies. Some say NFL teams would destroy teams from the 70's or earlier. Bwhahahahahaha. Jack Lambert playing by the rules back in his day applied today would put most running backs on the bench in one quarter. Same with ASSCAR. Put any punk in a car from the 70's and the first sign of blood on his hands from about 2 laps and he would be in the pits. Drivers back then crawled off a John Deere and raced. Not today. The winners are based on fan base and sponsorship. I have posted a sign of cheating is who have rule changes helped over time. Last year a stinking yankee, A-Fraud I think, was robbed of a homerun off a painted wall that was hard to determine if it was the fence or the wall behind the fence. Bam, MLB implements replay officiating on HR's. This year the yanks had two close calls go against them in the Div playoffs. Bam, that official was removed from calling in the World Series. If it had been the Bosox or Rays or Cubs or any other team none of those plays would have fresulted in any rule changes.
Drinketh the koolaide. I bet Talladega will be a huge attendance flop.
