A plea to the bar room.

FromTheSouth

You don't want it with me.
I want to thank you guys all of your awesome work in the Lounge. I think that the section is chugging along very well. When I was modded, the most important duty I was given was to drive discussion and get some more people in there. Thank you for your help.

I would love it if we could drive some discussion in the other sections as well. I have found some topics in each section which would make for some great debates and discussion. I guess we can call this the NWS newsletter. :lmao:

In the Sports Stadium, http://forums.wrestlezone.com/forumdisplay.php?f=11 football season is starting up, and the NCAA and NFL threads will be going off. That's fine, but here in America, we now have unprecedented access to the EPL, La Liga, and Serie A. ESPN shows EPL and La Liga games on weekends, and the Fox Soccer Channel shows games on weekend and during the week. Whether we agree or not, ESPN's decade of shoving soccer down out throats is working, and some of our more passionate sports fans, I think, would enjoy soccer a bit more if they got the chance.

Now, my hope is that the Sitcoms Tournament drives some more discussion in the section, but we still have like 32 months of the tag tourney to start, so let me point out a few threads that I have enjoyed.

We have a nice long list of movies that people refuse to watch.

I've started a couple of threads, and I would like to see what you guys think. The first one is a bit of a fun one. Let's see what movie you would remake. Hollywood has run out of ideas, and everything is a remake or adaptation, so what would yours be?

My other pet project is a bit of sentimental one. What moment from your TV viewing history sticks with you to this day?

I think the best show going today is True Blood. I'm only through season one, so I avoid this thread, but it gets mentioned time and again in here, so go get some post count and have a real conversation.

We are all wrestling fans. We enjoy combat. Why does the MMA board not get more attention? I am calling you all to it, and I will participate a bit more too. http://forums.wrestlezone.com/forumdisplay.php?f=127

MMA is just as full of personalities as wrestling. Come talk about two of the biggest, Rashad Evans and Rampage Jackson.

Randy Couture is the most overrated athlete ever. (My opinion) Someone with a career record of 15-10 is not an all time great. Come agree with me, and talk about the beating he got from Minitauro Nogueira.

You are the man, FTS. I am proud to call you my mentor who decided he wasn't worth of having a protoge so he passed me to NorCal but has reclaimed me in NorCal's absence.
 
It makes my eyes a bit sore to look at, but it's impressive.

Maybe linking the descriptions instead of putting the link below the description would help...

Just a thought, man.
 
Thriller, you never needed a mentor, you're the shit. You just needed some rub, and my rub pales in comparisons to NorCal. It was the best thing for you to let you go.

This really means a lot to me Southy. Thanks, and this is sigged
 
Wait. Did FTS really just list one of my threads?! Awesome. And yes, these threads are well worth the checking out.

Yeah, probably. But I can just open two tabs and drag them from one to the other.
 
Instead of going through an bb coding links, I just click and drag a thread title from tab 2 to tab one, if firefox, SLY, and I can drop it into the text.
 
Bump for my European friends. Help me out. Let's get some traffic in all of the NWS. I enjoy the response in the lounge, but let's get it like that for all of the sections.
 
Good point.

Or saying you like something popular. That always gets a response......in every section on the boards.
 
I should do one of these for the General Wrestling Section too. I like that section. I need to make more of an effort there too.
 
Shameless plugging? Leave these cheapies to the experts like Mick Foley... which there just so happens to be a thread discussing his existence as the greatest jobber of all time in the wrestling section! :suspic:
 
If it was shameless plugging I did a terrible job. I am responsible for the Lounge, and I didn't mention it, except at the end. I was plugging everyone elses sections. I guess that is shameless, because I feel good about it.



I guess I shamelessly plugged a couple of my threads though.
 
Did you happen to notice the :suspic: at the end?

Wow... plugging my own post in the same thread on the same page.
