You look at the calendar and notice it's Thursday. Great, you say, tonight is going to be an awesome night of Total Nonstop Action. And then reality sets in, TNA is no longer on Thursdays. Blast that Monday Night War!
Well, fear not, here are some alternatives to take your mind off of the lack of professional wrestling on your Thursday night.
WrestleMania is the biggest show of the year. People around the world come to see the biggest show of them all. At the end of the show, you want people to go away not only talking about the show, but going home happy. You don't want to piss people off and make the crowd angry at the end of the show. Everyone wants a storybook ending and something they can talk about for years to come. its very own (virtual) Hall of Fame. Voting will start March 7, 2010 and will close on March 24, 2010. Best of all, Unlike the WWE Hall of Fame and many others, you will vote in the winners.

Today's the big football game, meaning it is a day filled with predictions and rumored celebrities to be in attendance. But when it comes to rumors, there is only one place to come and that is here, Hit the Ropes.

Well, that last one isn't so hard to beat since Bush is comfy with Ms. Kardashian. GO SAINTS!
Anyway, on to the news, shall we? By the way, there is no legitimacy to these news items.
