Thoughts on TNA, Baseball, NBA Season, POG Show and more
Well before I watch TNA tonight, theres a few things I want to look at before they go primetime. The positive things about TNA is how they are getting big name WWE guys like Kurt Angle and Christian, etc. I feel they will help the buisness in he long run and make TNA competitor. Even though I hate his guts, I am glad they brought Vince Russo back because he is a very creative person.
My problem with TNA is they are pushing veterns and not the young guys. Sting and Jarrett are past their prime. Let Samoa Joe, Abyss, Christopher Daniels and others carry the company. Because of the veterns being pushed they lost probably one of their best draws in Monty Brown who is currently trying to work out a deal with WWE. I think this primetime change on Spike might entice a few other WWE guys to jumpship. I think within the year Benoit and Jericho will be in TNA and that might be a safe bet to take.
Congrats to Pudge and Kenny Rogers for winning Gold Gloves today. Happy to see it. Dave Dombrowski signed a 4 year extension as GM for the Tigers. Also Pitcher, Jeremy Bonderman might be up on the trade market. The story can be found on ESPN. Sean Casey is also a free agent who I hope re-signs with Detroit. A lot of big free agents right now.

Well the NBA season started off a few nights ago and the Pistons did not look good the other night. They lost to the Bucks which is no shock because Rasheed Wallace got ejected in the 3rd quarter. I think the Pistons are going to have a long season this year. Teams to be on the look out for are the Clippers, Lakers, Magic, Nets, Bulls, and Suns. I believe it will be the Nets vs. Suns in the finals this year. No doubt in my mind. I think both are finally ready for the next step and after how Miami played the other night, they will not repeat is champs. Everyone figured them out. Beware of Kobe and the Lakers. Thats all I am saying. Call me crazy but I know what I am talking about.
