State of the Game

When Triple H saw his Rumble spot get knocked out with one Regal brass knuckles blow to Flair’s skull, the face of an exhausted Game was awash with both relief for his mentor, whose career was saved, and disappointment...With bitter reality sinking in, what could possibly be Triple H’s state of mind in the weeks leading up to the Rumble?...Now, all his hard work – the long, painful road to redemption – seems to have been for nothing.

Whole lot of diversity goin' on

Universities today are full of people who not only embrace diversity but who also talk a lot (endlessly?) about their zeal for social inclusion, their desire for a more democratic culture and a bigger public sphere.

That is to say, they should take in an event like "RAW LIVE" presented by the WWE (World Wrestling Entertainment to the uninitiated)...I mean, you've gotta love the way a snobbish aristocratic "heel" (albeit a massive one) such as Hunter Hearst Helmsley could be transformed into the monstrous and (now) monstrously popular "face" known as Triple H...More?
