Jonathan - pin (no "h" - Kevin Butcher gets upset when I only correct his spelling errors)  When I saw this I said to myself, "OK, smart a$$. There must be a misprint on the card then." But, nope. I've been misspelling (is there two s's in that) it since day one. I prefer to just call him DLJ, usually. I think it sound pretty cool. No. It's Starrcade. I quote and then revise to do my next PPV/RAW posts and I just forgot to change the name for the PPV card. I went back and noticed I did the inverse on another PPV but have since corrected them I think. BTW - I really hope Corino gets whipped because this unspeakable run is giving me Greg Valentine nightmares. I, as well, call him DLJ as well. I've always wanted to do some kind of angle...making him a JBL like character, but haven't found a good way |

I'm not trying to be the spelling cop, it just jumped out at me and was consistent. I'm actually the last one who should be doing that. I was told in 7th grade I had an 11th grade spelling level, and it never got any better.
Mostly I just do it to bust Kevin's chops.
Corino had a good run for me, but I had no real ideas for him once he got past his problems with Justin Credible and Chris Candido. As far as Greg Valentine, I think I've moved past his issues with Tom and the GalactiCon no-show. Every card sold = $2 for Filsinger Games.

If I had to go around pointing out every Henning, Bockwinkle, Bastein and Niccolai (don't even get me started on the Zbyszko variations) - I'd go crazy.
Sorry Havoc, my thread hijacking is done. Looking forward to Starrcade!

Inoki snaps when Sunny slaps him after the match... Maybe Sunny was just trying to bring out the warrior spirit in Inoki. |
