then how are you going to sell garbage orange John Cena t-shirts to the little kiddies?

Damn America...money rules everything so much that we are screwed out of our entertainment dollar. I remember when Stone Cold had the "Fock Fear" shirts. Now, Cena's "FU" is the "attitude adjustment".

Not a big fan of WWE/TNA anymore, but I grew up watching. Ric Flair and the 4 Horsemen, Dusty Rhodes, Magnum TA (all the old Mid-Atlantic stuff). I also liked WCCW with the Von Erichs.

I do still go to all of the local wrestling cards around here (ACW).

Does anyone else think they are trying to create Stone Cold again with Orton? I mean at least Vince shouldnt make it so evident he is longing for the Attitutude glory days when PW hit its peak in popularity. Stone Cold was the Rattlesnake, Orton is the Viper. Stone Cold had the stunner and Orton the RKO damn near the same finishing move. Both are/were pushed as the lone wolf "not good not bad guy" character.

I remember the really good ol' days of Wahoo McDaniels and Ric Flair trading chops at the center of the ring, Flair's face covered in the crimson mask to see who would fight Ricky Steamboat in a Texas Deathstrap Match at the Armory.

Now that was Wrasslin'!

This crap is just steroids, posing and "not in the face, not in the face!"

      Adam Theilen said he came back to play with Bryce, and he expects the Panthers to surprise some people

      By Icege · Posted

      We're in alignment regarding Thielen not being a game changer/breaker for the Panthers. Getting the ball into hands of playmakers like TMac and XL is going to open up things more than it is getting it to Thielen underneath (or letting him go after 50/50 balls 20yds downfield in his mid-30s). However, in a room where the other guys are two second year guys and two rookies, having a reliable vet that they can learn from is just as important as it is for the QB to have as a reliable third option. I can see that being worth $8.5M (just 3%) of the $279.2M cap... especially when looking at what's left out there: https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/free-agents/_/position/wr However, the idea that the team is forcing production to Thielen and leading to losses isn't supported by the data. Targets, not receiving yards, are how you can tell if a player is being "force fed." In the two games mentioned, let's look at the other players available... vs. TB 10 targets - Adam Thielen 9 targets - David Moore 8 targets - Tommy Tremble, Xavier Legette 3 targets - Jonathon Brooks 1 target - Dan Chisena, Feleipe Franks, Stephen Sullivan vs. PHI 11 targets - Adam Thielen 8 targets - Xavier Legette 5 targets - Chuba Hubbard, David Moore 2 targets - Tommy Tremble 1 target - Ja'Tavion Sanders, Deven Thompkins There isn't exactly a bounty of other names to throw the ball to. In those games, AT was one of the top 2 WRs. Diontae had been gone by that point.   So... yea. Agreed that Thielen isn't exactly carrying the team in his mid-30s, but it's undeniable that he was the most reliable target last season that still has quite a bit of value this season. Whether or not that value is reflected in a manner folks think on the contract is going to come down to personal taste. However, the idea that the team was forcing production to AT and that was the reason behind some losses couldn't be further from the truth.

      I would also add that I think it's more than money.  AT has looked absolutely miserable out there at times, and there was a lot of speculation he would demand to be traded.  Personally, I thought he was a lock to be moved last year.  Maybe his hamstring is the only thing that prevents that from happening. The fact that he's not only willing to come back and play, but excited about it, really bodes well for Bryce.  AT is a veteran and he knows the game.  If he didn't have confidence in Bryce, I guarantee you he wouldn't be in a Panther uniform this year.  I'll take that as a positive.
