TGP actually made his own WWF Hulkamania championship belt out of cardboard and construction paper. 

You should have seen the look on the coach's faces when TGP showed up in his Hulkamania tee for 7th grade wrestling practice.  Not happy.

Reg, nice work on soemone finally beating that chump TDT.  The guy averagves like 65 points each week yet was still undefeated.  About time someone slapped him. 

How was ND/Navy?  GOod times? 

RE: ND vs. Navy
The tailgate-
Lots of people that Reg didnt know...some older some younger....but all pretty cool cats.  I got suckered into a few "shotguns" which was ok since I needed practice for shoesaplooza '06.  One thing that isnt cool is the portapot....people think that just bc it's a tailgate, anything goes....dude...I know you just used the bathroom...no I don't want to shake your hand.  Dude, do you really have to fondle every last chip before eating 3 of them?  How about the random people that show up as friends of friends that show up empty handed and eat and drink all your stash?  Whats up with dat?

The game- Reg has been watching too much ND football from home and is acustomed to letting it "all fly" when watching Brady take the field.  There were waaaay too many F-bombs that needed censoring at the game itself.  On defense...how hard is it to HIT THE QB on option?  Navy had literally 4 plays.....Option.....FB dive.....stretch and some stoopid pass play that never worked...HIT THE QB!!!

The post tailgate....short but it was fun...everyone was happy....everyone was hungry....Reg was on the grill all day and didnt burn or undercook one thing all day.

Did anyone realize that a lot pass for M&T stadium is $100 bucks!!!!  Now all the sudden I feel bad for the times I showed up with a 12 pack and some food and not pitching in!

Can't let any discussion of "old time wrestling" pass without a plug the first man of color to play the heel way back when, Sweet Dady Siki (now a singer in a band). We also should never forget the Nazi from Quebec, Hans Schmidt (real name Guy LaRose). At interview time the "manager" (believe it was Wild Red Berry) did all the talking so that Guy's heavy French accent would not give the whole act away. Then there was the man from Moosehead, Maine (no such town in Maine) Moose Cholak (real name Ed-now deceased), who was actually an engineer for the City of Milwaukee in his post wrestling life. Also among my all time favorites were the tag team of Magnificent Maurice and Handsome Johnny Barend, a younger, trimmer Lou Albano as one half of the tag team of The Sicilians and, of course, the greatest heel of all time, the original "Nature Boy" Buddy Rogers (real name Herman Rhode) who passed away some years ago.
   From the broadcast position the all time best were the team of Gorilla Monsoon (actually an Ithaca College football and wrestling Hall of Famer under the name of Gino Morella) and Jesse "The Body" Ventura and we all know what he did later.

Tony, very PC.....Reg thinks that Gro should change his name to "enginmanofcolor"

Reg..RT almost made it to the ND game but backed out last sec. RT's older brother was there as well as several friends...nice to see ND enter into the tough part of the schedule. USC pussied out and that loss hurt ND...

On another note, RT realized how old, inflexible, and out of shape he is when he decided to mix it up a bit and try something unconventional (for RT, that is) at the gym tonight - pilates. RT saw several hot, young hens ushering into the activity room so RT grabbed a mat, a stretch band, and decided to go work on his "core".. WTF!!! Some of those moves, aside from making RT laugh out loud, were not very flattering to RT's physique. Lots of movements that made RT regret wearing a shirt that probably was 3 sizes too small when it comes to overhead stretches, side stretches, and a host of laying-down type stretchs. Hell, the entire damn hour was stretches that kept RT holding on to his shirt. Naturally, RT pulled his 'Tommy Boy move' and asked said hotties where the weight room was after the pilates class so he could do his real work out.

there's nothing wrong with the vikes jerseys... if you're on acid.

Chester taylor needs to score 9 more points than Wiggins for the $FFL... RUN THE BALL INSIDE THE 5 YARD LINE.

I'm in a worse position than you, I need Dillion to score 6 points...and they aren't running.

Man you guys are old.....

Did they even have TV back in the 50's??  Was NYC even discovered before 1950....how did they have wrestling there??

Reg was such a hulkamaniac that PapaReg had Reg convinced that he knew the hulkster and he was sending me one of his championshop belts...that unfortunately never showed up.  Rumor has it that USPS actually delivered it to the wrong house.

JT remembers Ivan Putski wrestling Superstar Billy Graham for the World Wrestling Federation Title in the Bergenfield, NJ HS gym in the late 70's.  First they had a few warm up acts and then they had the midget wrestlers, then the main event.  Putski wound up winning.  Wrestling back then used to be on some crappy local station late at night.  Ch 9 I believe.  Man has wrestling come a long way.  Now its big business.

Man I cannot even watch my Vikings get spanked like this.

Where's the booze?

So, I have an interesting question...

Do you think Tom Arcidiacono (Sr. RB -- Union) could win the Gagliardi Trophy for Division III Player of the Year?  Chris Sharpe's statistics are slightly better than his in terms of rushing and scoring, but it hits me that Sharpe's offense is built around him more than Union's offense being built around Arcidiacono (the WRs are key to Union's team, as well).  Some of his runs and cuts have been purely amazing this year.  I really feel like he could win this trophy if Union can win these next two games (it appears that no player has won from a team with more than two losses this decade).  What are the pros and cons I might be missing here?

[Pat Coleman]

Gagliardi Trophy is not just based on performance on the field, it also involves academics and community service. Just throwing that out there as a reminder.
