Gas Prices Too Damn High Gas prices in the U.S. have hit an all-time high with prices soaring as high as $7 a gallon in California. Here in Illinois, gas has topped $5 depending on where you live. With inflation soaring out of control and gas prices expected to continue rising, it’s only a matter…
Sigh. If you decided to skip WWE’s latest “premium live event” today consider yourself lucky. The Elimination Chamber PPV ended a little over 4 hours ago and it has most fans simply shaking their heads as to how boring, anti-climatic and mid this event was tonight. The main card was as follows: Roman Reigns def….
Tonight begins the Road to WrestleMania with what some wrestling fans consider to be the 2nd most important night of the year for WWE. The Dome in St. Louis hosts WWE’s ‘premium live event’ so let’s get to these last second predictions. Edge & Beth Phoenix vs. The Miz & Maryse Edge & The Miz…

It seems the WWE is never able to keep momentum on a month to month basis. Whenever it looks like they’re on the right track, Vince McMahon & company make some insanely, head scratching moves that makes people question Vince’s sanity. After a Crown Jewel PPV event in Saudi Arabia that was almost universally praised…
Browns Bury Bears, Fields My expectations for rookie QB Justin Fields wasn’t very high given the Bears were up against stiff competition in the Browns but my low expectations quickly turned to utter frustration.

The date – July 17, 2011. The place – Allstate Arena in Rosemont, IL. The event – WWE’s Money in the Bank PPV. The main event of that PPV was WWE Champion John Cena defending against hometown hero CM Punk. What made this main event so important was this was CM Punk’s last day of…
