You'll hit your head and say: 'Boy, how stupid could I have been. A moron could've figured this out. I must be a real dimwit. A pathetic nimnal. A wretched idiotic excuse for a human being for not having figured these simple puzzles out in the first place...As usual, you've been a real pantload!
I loved that Cornette show with Dave. God that was great to hear Dave just unload on TNA.

"They want to know who's talking to me; like there's 1 guy. It's like I've been around for 30 years, who isn't talking to me."

"I sent Dixie an email and she responds to about 1/3 of my emails."

Good luck finding that rat Dixie!

Though the battle might be endless, I will never give up
That Cornette show explained why the TNA cancellation story in the Observer was written so oddly. Meltzer wrote a "Battle for Number 2" story and was going to publish it 3 weeks earlier, but then more big news kept coming out relating to it, culminating in TNA's cancellation, so he just kept adding to the original article. lol

He gives hope to lovely journalists everywhere that if you just become the only person in your field that knows everybody, it doesn't matter that you can't write for poo poo.

I thought Dave said the number of emails Dixie responded to was way higher than that, but maybe I'm misremembering.

Pretty much. Dave's cool and all but he's not a good writer and never has been, and his website looks like hot garbage.

Dave is the WWE of wrestling journalism. With no real competition he can coast and keep making the same mistakes. At least he's consistently good.

He's passable. In journalism how you write is secondary to getting your point across

completely disagree
he's excellent and continues to exceed expectations (output) whereas wwe is constantly running on fumes and nostalgia & only ever succeed through luck

Doesn't Dave occasionally write for "real" publications when they need a wrestling story? I seem to remember him doing stuff for SI a few times and there was also the gig with the National in the 90s. I kinda want to see what he looks like when he's writing for a publication with an actual editor.

He writes thrice weekly for MMA Fighting which is SBNation's flagship MMA blog. He has a legitimate copy editor, it's more legible.
