Ok, time to address many a point.....


First off, the flaming of PBeM and not flaming the FWF.  I have run a PBeM, I
don't think that it's cards should get posted in RSPR, however, I don't think
that people should get flamed for presenting a call for players in RSPR, since
people most likely to be interested will be reading this newgroup.  As for the
FWF, I don't see what it's held on a pedastal above the EMWA, UeWF, PWA, NEWA,
ILIW, GCW, SWL or WeWF.  For the purpose of saving people from having to wade
thru an e-wrestling report, which can get very long, might I suggest that
people post the results, FWF included, in rec.games.pbm?  Note :  This is not
to be a flame on the FWF, but why is one fictious league above all the rest?
It will save us some time so we can wade thru the Who's Max Moon and why Erik 
Watts is the Anti-Christ posts (did anyone notice if Erik's college football 
number was 666?) . :)


RE :  most beautiful women in wrestling

I don't see how Medusa can be ranked below Sherri Martel.  Even before Sherri 
got kicked out of the Tammy Fae Bakker School of Cosmetics, Medusa looked 
better, IMHO.  Which brings us to our next point.  How many people remember when
Sherri Martel managed Mr. Magnificent Kevin Kelly and 'Slick' Nick Kiniski in
the AWA.  It's funny how they are all in the WWF now.  Note :  this is based on
the fact someone mentioned seeing Nick a few times and the fact that Nailz might
be Kevin Kelly, I'm not sure, but Nailz does have Kelly's terrible teeth.)

Jobbers :

You know, there is always talk of a lack in wrestling today, but I don't think
that's really true.  The problem is a lot of deadweight (like Watts) has been
given pushes while some good talent has been wasted.  Examples :  Barry 
Horowitz, Jim Powers and the State Patrol. 
Barry is probably one of the better wrestlers in any fed.  If he was given a 
good push, Barry could be great even if only used in the Lightheavyweight 
Division. 
Powers is a baby face, but he some good moves, and has a good combo of speed, 
skill and strenght.  Besides, Watts makes Powers look like Liger!  
The State Patrol :  Whatever happend to Capt. James Earl Wright anyway?  Granted
they were jobbers, but they were a good team, definitely more exciting than
Tex Slashinger and Shanghai Peirce.  I remember a few years ago when they gave
the Fantastic or Dynamic Dudes a tough match on TV.  They had some good moves 
like a combo suplex/top rope shoulder tackle and looked like they were going 
to win several times in the match after using team work.


Barry's turn :

Personally, I got to used to seeing Barry as a heel and I found it hard to see
him as face again.   If he teams with anyone, I would hope it would be Anderson.
I don't know how well they get along, (I heard a rumor a long time ago that 
Tully and Arn went to the WWF because they didn't get along with Barry) but I
think Barry and Arn work better than Arn and Eaton.  (Sorry, I can't picture
Eaton with any other partner than Stan Lane).  I think it would have been cool
if Dustin did the heel turn too.  Maybe then I would have some respect for him,
well that's pushing it, maybe a very little bit of respect. :)

Dangerous Alliance :  What is up with this?  I had thought that they all went
their sperate ways, but then two weeks ago they all show up together?  Somebody
kick Watts in the head again for messing up plot lines.  However, I don't think
the DA walked out on Paul E. when he was demeaning Medusa, I think they were
going to get ready for their match with Sasaki.  I haven't seen the Clash yet
and I'm really dreading doing so, but I wanna know how the hell anyone can
confuse Medusa and Mike Thor.  Medusa and Rude should have kicked Paul E.'s
ass.  Rude/Orndorff could be a good team, it's just convient that they totally
forget their old fued of who was the sexiest.

BTW, it was nice to see the Nature Boy in a suit flipping out like he used to
in the old TBS studios.

Hoping I don't have any flame-storms in my future
