Nascar

Well the 2008 NASCAR season is finally coming to an end in just two weeks. To some, November 16 will be filled with cheers and tears. To others, that day will be just another day. I'm a member of the latter club.

I myself have a fan of the sport for 7 years now, and after you've watched it for 36 weeks during the year, it gets old. This season, however, has to be the worst season NASCAR has ever had entertainment-wise. You have drivers Jimmie Johnson and Carl Edwards winning every week, the Cup drivers are continuing to dominate and ruin all the Nationwide races, still no truck races on affordable channels, biased announcers for 24/36 weeks, green-white-checkered finishes are still not exciting, horrible playoff system, too many unseen cautions, impound races, shot goodyear tires, and rained out qualifying causes the races to be lined up by points. All the more reason to turn to another channel, go outside, or even talk to your wife. Also its football season, so why bother watching NASCAR?

If they try to fix these problems rather than just ignoring them like they have for years, then maybe the races will become watchable again. So get rid of all the unseen cautions and impound races. Make GWC finishes 5 laps instead of 2, and restart it if a caution comes out. Put only the best, non-biased announcers in the booth. Goodyear, fix up your tires. Put truck races on FSN or Fox. Limit the number of double-duty drivers for every race to 10. Line the drivers up not on points when qualifying is rained out. Eliminate drivers from the chase to make it, well, an actual playoff!

For all you fans out there feeling the same way, I know how you feel. If NASCAR wants to fix their sport, they need to fix up their problems. Maybe one day someone with a high position in the sport will stand up and make sure that ideas like these become a reality.

John Cena

As we all know, 3-time WWE champion John Cena severely injured his pectoral muscle in early November days before his championship defense against Randy Orton at Cyber Sunday. To me, this was a way for WWE to get over the hump that Cena slowly developed over his entire year-long reign. This was supposed to be a time for all the anti-Cena fans to breathe because we knew that for the next few months our televisions would be Cena-free.

But the entire time he was gone, there was hardly a single broadcast that didn't involve the words "John Cena" coming out of the comentating team's mouths. How annoying is that, to not be able to go one night without the man slowly killing the fan base being mentioned. But hey, at least Cena wasn't going to be on the air for the next 6 months, right? Wrong.

On January 27, 2008 the Royal Rumble, Cena makes his "triumphant return" entering at #30 in the Royal Rumble match to a huge mixed-reaction with cheers from young fans and WTFs from older fans. And after 8 minutes of Cena wrestling (bad wrestling), both reactions became larger. To me and all the other long-time fans who saw the match, this was like a kick in the crotch and a big F*** you. It's pretty obvious that Vince and all the other crooked executives of WWE as well as the BS creative team who plan the shows don't care about a large fan-base or 1999-like reactions these days, all they care about is filling up their wallets with their constant sell-outs with 50% of the audience under 12 and Cena merchandise their selling. Remember the good old days when every wrestler had talent and Vince actually knew what he was doing? It's a distant memory to me now.

So, for all you fans who lack interest in watching WWE anymore, I know exactly how you feel. Who knows if they'll get back in the correct mindset ever again. All I can say is that when greats like Undertaker, Shawn Michaels, and Triple H retire, they're doomed.

My One Month Ann'y

Today, December 1st, marks my one month anniversary since joining GameSpot and I must say this experience has been awesome. Everytime I login here, I always wonder, what questions I can answer for people struggling with a section of a game? Will I make any more friends or have some body new track me? Will I create any new topics on these forums? Will I join a Union? Will I become a next level member of GameSpot? Is this the day someone reports abuse from me to a moderator?

Well, over the past 30 days, I have made a total of 81 posts (at the moment). I have had about a dozen people check out my profile and have 2 friends I can chat with that have a lot of the same interests as I do. I have only created a couple topics so far simply because I usually don't have any questions about games and to be honest I actually enjoy posting in topics other people have started than create my own. I actually am a member of a WWE/TNA Union but haven't made any posts on it yet because I'm more interested in making comments about wrestling games than "real-world" wrestling. I am happy that I have achieved a level 5 rating here on GameSpot and am literally one blog away from achieving level 6 success, "hmm, I wonder..." you may say. And I am proud to say that I am currently not saying anything offensive or abusive to people here so far and I hope it stays that way for as long as I am a member.

Well, that'll do it for this blog right here. I hope this was a good 2nd blog for anybody reading. I didn't need to write this, but I just felt I should make a second blog before I forgot. Feel free to write any comments you have on this blog. Thanks

The Return of Jericho

Dozens of promos over the past few months that at first featured numerous codes with numbers and "save us" in it, whichsome peoplewere able to decipher as a Chris Jericho promo. Then this past Monday night on Raw, a new promo came on that featured the same stuff as well as "Break down the walls" and a countdown similar to his from his debut that will end at the start of next weeks 3-hour special edition of Raw. So for all of you fellow Jerichoholics out there who have been watching these promos week after week and on the internet, now you know that the very 1st Undisputed WWE Champion is making his long-awaited return this Monday night on Raw.
