    Read as much or as little into that as possible kids :kiss:

    ...but give us one reason why we should care about any other nation but our own?
  2. Pakestan is probably the most inconsistent team ever. After beating their arch-rivals India in India , and then getting Austrian upper-order out quickly in he first innings of both the test matches, they look like they've lost all hope. Yohanna, should've kept on an attacking field, instead of allowing Gilchrist to get in stride. Hell, even Gilesppie went on to score a 50.

  3. I was given "Every Little Thing Gonna Be Alright: The Bob Marley Reader" by my other for x-mas, really interesting so far, alot of great insight into the historical/social context which Bob Marley and The Wailers were born, from what i've read so far though, it needs more non-white contributors, namely people from Jamaica~! Though there's a nice lil' piece from Rita Marley, oh and Lester Bangs has a really fun writing-style, good stuff so far.

  4. Im lazy so this is going to be in fragments aka numeric-notation, yeah,

    1. The logo blows, what the fuck is that supposed to be anyway?

    2. Some background on your roster would have been/would be, good, im not an ‘old-school’ wrestling fan, so a lot of these guys are nothing but names on a screen to me, and others are obscured by old gimmick-names etc. Though some are obvious, like Anthony, Irvine, Abby etc. but who the fucks is Evad? ‘Dave’?

    3. Relating to the second point, you’ve got a stable, seventh day, a name and everything, it would have been more logical in my mind, if their allegiance had been made clear prior to the show, included with their profiles, you feel me?

    4. Im loving the inclusion of Hase in the title match, more puroresu icons would be great, awesome choice, but why are these two guys getting the shot? You need to explain why they’re worthy of a title match.

    5. LJB and Blackstone are good, the usual heel-face dynamics, but its good nonetheless, and not bland, ‘wow what a great match’ stuff, which some writers tend to do.

    6. Sullivan promo was well-done, and got his character over well enough, but so far he’s the only who I can really ‘feel’ for as reader if you feel me? More promo time for the other guys would be good. Edit: the Corporal K. promo was also good, which makes the show 2/2 for promos, and makes 7. Somewhat obsolete, as you did do an interview segment, but maybe the thoughts of some of the losers on the show? Particularly the younger talent.

    7. Maybe splice some interviews segments with your workers and Blackstone /LJB/?

    8. Rick Knox reffing the LGL/TS match, hehe.

    9. The Tag main was fun/good, clearly the best match on the show, perhaps not a coincidence, it had the longest report! Although with the matches, im wondering why you don’t have commentary cuts from LJB and Blackstone, seeing as you have them commentating during the breaks from ‘live feed’, why not include comments in the matches themselves. Im assuming, personal preference?

    10. Just a little nitpick, Eddie didn’t use the Frog Splash until after Art Barr died, and henceforth he used it as a tribute to his departed friend.

    Overall good little show, it’s the first so nothing had any build and all the workers were new to the diary world, and many new to me, plus it was a TV show. All of those factors mitigate my rating, a strong B- show, nothing bad about it, but you’re just getting started, good work brother, and good luck.

    Damn you blink.gif Still dunno if it's Raven
