You know, the segment where CM Punk tore Kevin Nash a new one was so entertaining that I think most of us missed just how awesome the next segment was. I was reading about it on another message board, and decided to watch the replay of the Alex Riley-Jack Swagger match - and the commentary with Dolph Ziggler and Vickie Guerrero was GOLD!! Seriously, Michael Cole was barely able to add his obnoxious character in the broadcast because as the cameras showed, he was having WAY too much trouble containing his laughter. I hope they don't break up Dolph and Vickie for a while... the two of them bickering is WAY too funny! I really liked the whole build-up so far with Vickie & Dolph bickering and then add in Swagger buttering up to Vickie was a Solid & Entertaining story-arc... |

I guess the Vickie thing was progress, but she's got 'flip to the red sox' heel heat for me, so I don't relish seeing more of her.. I only watched because the Sox had an off day. OTOH, Swagger needs something, so it make sense... just wish it was ANYONE but Vickie. But this segment as I noted in my post above, was GOLD... Cue down to the 1:42 mark Vickie: I complement you. Dolph: You do complement me, like a nice garnish on a steak. Lawler: I knew your conversation would go to food when you're around Vickie Guerrero... Dolph: Vickie Guerrero is in better shape than you King... she's in the second best shape in this entire desk (probably true between King, JR, and Cole)Dolph: Vickie, your bad breath shouldn't be an issue during my matches. Vickie: How would you know? You never kiss me ever! King: It's back to food again, when I think of you two I think of pigs in a blanket. Dolph: JR is sitting right next to you and I think of pigs in a blanket also... You know what, no offense, JR. No offense. I said 'no offense' so it should be fine. |

Yeah, I'll admit it was pretty funny.
I just can't stand Vickie,. The fat jokes were funny once, but they just make no sense, especially coming from Lawler, who never has won any body building prizes.

I guess another good thing about RAW last Monday was, thanks to that segment with The Miz, for the first time I tried an oven crisp chicken sandwich today for lunch at the Subway across the street. It was pretty good.  |

I guess another good thing about RAW last Monday was, thanks to that segment with The Miz, for the first time I tried an oven crisp chicken sandwich today for lunch at the Subway across the street. It was pretty good. I have a hilarious Subway story from this week (well, it was hilarious to me). So I go to Subway a few days ago and I get in line and it's pretty busy. This young, red headed girl steps out from the back, puts her gloves on and asks if she can help me. The thing is she has CLEARLY been BALLING HER EYES OUT in the back. Whole face is bright red, eyes are puffy, tears still coming down her face -- and she's like (in a crying voice) "Hi how are you?" and I'm like "Good! How are you?" and as soon as I said it (just being polite) the girl breaks down and begins BALLING even more. It was like I was in a TV skit. I'm looking around like "does anyone else notice this shit other than me?" trying my best not to bust out laughing. So as this girl is putting together my 12 inch Black Forrest Ham and Turkey, she's crying her eyes out. Of course, I'm a giant smartass so I ask "is it the onions?" she just looked at me and didn't say anything. I had to use every ounce of strength in my body not to laugh out loud. Hey, I was just trying to make light of a awkward situation. |

Hey, I was just trying to make light of a awkward situation. Hilarious to you, indeed. You're a mean one, Mr. Grinch.   Personally, the caring,people-centered part of me would tell her to go compose herself and take a moment. ----the other part of me wants nothing to do with someone with any evidence of recent bodily excretions of any kind preparing my food. It just kind of kills the whole deal. I'd have gone to Quizno's or something and been done with it. Thread drift........ On topic, turning Vickie into a traditional manager with a "number of clientele" is a good idea. So is not using the traditional term "stable"; it's not like she's showing horses, she's representing sports entertainers in an advisory position. It looks better on a business card that way. Seriously, I've never likes the term "stable of wrestlers" and not using it is a case of progress being a good thing. |

Seriously, I've never likes the term "stable of wrestlers" and not using it is a case of progress being a good thing. (1) I'm with Mark. I wouldn't want tears in my sub either, and would probably go elsewhere to eat. (2) Mark, sounds like you're pulling out your inner Bobby Heenan, who also hated the term "stable." Still, a team of Dolph, Swagger, and Vickie could be kind of fun as long as they move away from the whole Swagger being romantically involved with Vickie thing. That would sound too much like the Edge-Vickie-Big Show triangle they ran a couple years ago. I'd also like to see Vickie taken seriously as an actual manager and not just the She-Devil of the WWE. |

Damn I am glad they did that Miz segment for Subway. Once again I had the oven crisp chicken sandwich from the Subway across the street tonight right before Smackdown. I think it might even be better than Subway's oven roasted chicken breast sandwich. |
