I loved Californication....except for the last season, it was just okay.

I've never seen it before. She's never seen walking dead before. So we both picked a show we like for the other to get into, luckily we have similar taste in shows/movies.

I wish I could die and come back as Hank Moody. Top 5 all time show, imo

What's the story behind mmascientist?

Also, to Mr. IWS, if you do check my IP, it's not a proxy, I really am from Barbados.

I was just joking. That sounded like something MMAscientist would say and he had multiple acccounts

Just read a little of the thread from your sig. I'm confused, there's betting for WWE?

Yep, you can bet on WWE. That was several years ago when SPX and poopoo conned all of us into watch Wresltmania

How does that work? With wrestling being pre-determined and all.

->Spoiler Alert!<-

Okay, I just watched a video on the theory. Jesus. Mind=Blown. At least the way the video lays it out, it seems so OBVIOUS that it's true (but then again I guess that's how theories like this sometimes appear when they're arranged in a certain way).

I hope you're right that Jon is not gone. I am starting to believe. Like I said, he's my favorite character and I've just had the SENSE that ultimately the GoT story is HIS story. It's always seemed like, while on the surface he's somewhat peripheral as he's stuck off literally on the periphery at the Wall, that we're building up to something big with him.

->Spoiler Alert!<-

Yeah I feel he's way too important to be dead. And even if he dies eventually, his arc has not reached a satisfying conclusion yet.

Cool video.

Here's two scenes from the show that have me pretty much convinced.

First half of this.



And this.

Basically you're just betting on who you think the writers have chosen to win the match. If I remember correctly, the bets were capped at like $50 so that if you had inside knowledge you couldn't get rich on it. Though I could be mis-remembering.

I feel like this has to be a whole lot harder than it sounds. There's no way it's that easy. Do you know if they take bets for regular Raw and shit or just "PPVs"?

Just PPVs.

As for being harder than it sounds, as you can see from the list Luke posted on the "sure things" the lines are just insane.

Yeah. Definitely harder than it sounds. I don't even understand. Surely any good bookies offering WWE betting would have the inside scoop already. The lines basically tell you who's going to win, eh.

[SPX]

Apparently Chuck Liddell is in an upcoming movie with Dolph Lundgren and Mickey Rourke. And the amazing thing is that I think the movie actually looks pretty good.

[zY|]

Looks more like Chuck Liddell has one scene and goes down faster than when Rampage took his title.
