Kristos Is God

I want France to win the same way Italy have throughout the tournament.

Cynically.

And another dive!

I only wish Rooney pushed that diving cunt Ronaldo harder. The douchebag in me would have much more respect for Rooney if he threw a punch.

I love the MVP gameplay, but a fictional league with full customization would have been so much better than NCAA baseball, although I'll probably still buy it.

The NHL and NBA 2k franchises have outclassed EA the last two years even with the glitches.

I really don't get the point of liking talentless hacks because they're "hot". There's an Internet full of "hot" people, most of them naked.

Surprisingly well written, if you ask me. I thought it would be a good premise and a shitty show, but you really surprised me. You seem into this thing, and that's good. My character's written just as I wanted it to be, so I'll be reading in the future, for sure. MORE TITLES FOR JANIK...JANIK...NEED...SOULS...

Boston Bruins captain Joe Thornton has signed to play for H.C. Davos of the Swiss Elite league next season, but that doesn't necessarily mean the all-star forward is headed to Europe.

Terms of the contract were not released.

Thornton, a restricted free agent, can opt out of the European contract if the NHL resumes next season and also if he can agree to terms with an NHL club, his agent J.P. Barry said in an interview.

That club would probably be Boston, given the limited movement of restricted free agents.

"We're very happy for Joe," Barry said in the statement. "As we are all aware, there may not be NHL hockey next season and this agreement will allow Joe to play hockey at the highest level in a unique environment that he may not otherwise have experienced."

"I'm very excited about the opportunity to play with Davos," Thornton added in the statement.

The Bruins made a qualifying offer to Thornton before he became a restricted free agent on July 1 to retain his NHL rights.

However, a report last week said the London, Ont., native was unhappy with the exodus of unrestricted free agents from the Bruins and had asked for a trade.

Earlier Thursday, centre Brian Rolston left Boston to sign with the Minnesota Wild. Thornton's linemate Mike Knuble has already jumped to Philadelphia and defenceman Sean O'Donnell signed with Phoenix.

The Bruins' other unrestricted free agents - Glen Murray, Michael Nylander, Travis Green and Dan McGillis - may follow.

Thornton, a three-time all-star, led Boston last season with 23 goals and 50 assists in 77 games. He was also named to Canada's team for the 2004 World Cup of hockey.

He struggled in the post-season with a severe rib injury as Boston was upset by Montreal in the first round.

Davos is one of Switzerland's top clubs. It is known for playing host to the annual Spengler Cup tournament in December.

Thornton will likely not be the only NHL player to sign in Europe as Sergei Gonchar, also a restricted free agent with the Bruins, is believed to be speaking to a Russian league team.

Edmonton Oilers forward Mike York recently signed with a German league team.

Odd...very odd indeed.

Bad Religion - The Empire Strikes First

Metallica - Kill 'Em All

Tool - Lateralus

Quoth the LUEser...

Age 10 - Limp Bizkit, Nirvana, Sex Pistols, Everclear, Uncle Cracker, Blink 182.

This was when I just started to get into music. Some of the bands seem like shit, but I was really into them. This was when Limp Bizkit was actually solid, I actually listen to them occasionally now. Everclear was decent, I own one of their CDs.

Age 11 - Limp Bizkit, Mudvayne, Blink 182, Nirvana, Linkin Park, Tupac, Biggie, The Beastie Boys, 50 Cent, Eminem.

This was as much of a "rap stage" as I've ever had. I just got sick of most of it after a while. It's so painfully trite, and there's so many morons who are obsessed with it. The saddest part is that they're the same morons who listened to boy bands, and they're the same morons who'll be obsessed with the next "popular" fad. Wiggers.

Age 12 - System of a Down, Evanescence, Blink 182, Linkin Park, Good Charlotte, Led Zeppelin, Metallica, Anti-Flag, Radiohead, Tupac, Jet, Queen, R.E.M, Lacuna Coil, Disturbed, NOFX.

I started discovering more stuff last year. Sifting through my parents' collection, talking to people who like more distinct music, the Internet, random Kazaa searches (that's how I got into Radiohead), and more things contributed to this "revolution" in me. This leads to now...

Now (Age 13) - Bad Religion, Metallica, Opeth, Dream Theater, Soundgarden, Alice Cooper, Radiohead, R.E.M., Led Zeppelin, NOFX, Lost Prophets, The Eagles, Fugazi, GOB, Cannibal Corpse, Weezer, Dropkick Murphy's, Smashing Pumpkins, The Red Hot Chili Peppers, Tool, Bon Jovi, Everclear, Lacuna Coil, The Sex Pistols, The Who, Disturbed, Evanescence (check their stuff from "Origin", they are SO much above most "pop-nu-metal" bands), Nine Inch Nails, Judas Priest, KISS, Iron Maiden, Hüsker Dü, Minor Threat, Social Distortion, Sunny Day Real Estate.

The list speaks for itself.

Who is Al Magz in real life, anyway? Probably an inside joke which I know nothing of...*sobs*

2. Which man will not be involved in the decision? Rhyno

3. Pick the winner: Molly Holly v. Christian

11. Who will lose the match? Trish

12. Will any matches be added at the last minute to compensate for Benoit's injury? No

13. Which match received the highest *overall* EWR rating? Molly vs. Christian

14. Which match's result forced me to use Arsenic on a wrestler's morale? Molly vs. Christian

15. Which match was so well-received that the match following it was a letdown? Orton vs. Sting

So that's the Prediction Contest. And now, the survey. I will give you a series of people in my WWE, and ask you to rate your opinion of them from 0 to 10. Zero means you're absolutely hating it, 10 means it's a total markout moment. Please include a few words of criticism or praise as you see fit telling me how it can be handled better -- which in many cases is independent of your enjoyment of it. Answer as many or as few as you like.

KILL KILL KILL

The phrase "Nicole Jackson sucks chants start in the crowd" pops up six times, in that exact wording, throughout this diary. I think that's a decent hint at what you're dealing with.

Killing is never a bad thing!

Die Rocky Die

Linda's thing was out of character, but besides that, it was near perfect IMO, especially Vitamin C vs. those damned Dudleys. Also, someone finally decided to give Jindrak, Cade, and Maven personalities. It'll be interesting to see how that turns out...

*starts obligatory Christian chant*

I could see Vince, Foley, Shamrock, Christian, Cena and Cade being the top six. Cena and Christian will form an alliance, and promise to go after Shamrock. In a Russoian SWERVE~!, Christian kills Cena and allies with Shamrock. Vince gets Foley at gunpoint inside a building, let's say it was Cena's, but then Cade comes in and kills Vince. Bischoff cheers, etc. etc., Foley takes Christian's gun and shoots Bischoff in the temple, and the four remaining men escape to America, where they tell everybody what happened with Bischoff, McMahon and the others. Well, those were my piss-poor predictions...
