"this is falls count anywhere which means that had they brawled out the building and somehow made their way to antarctica for example, and and --"

"well they would've been counte-, the show would've ended long before they got to antarctica"

"well let's just say they got there.."

I'm thinking about subscribing to WO. Are the newsletters in PDF format that I could read on my iPad at the gym?

I'm trying to debate on whether or not I want to do it and the podcasts seem worth it but I think being able to read the newsletter on my iPad would push me over the hump.

figure four weekly, yes. observer, no

Todd Martin is great and he is often the only one to present a differing point of view on WO/F4W. It gets really stale hearing Bryan and Dave discussing something and agreeing about the state of affairs, then have Bryan rant on the B&V show about the same thing with Vinny agreeing, then have him go through the same goddamn points with Lance who agrees. Todd is wrong sometimes, but a lot of the time his points are at least as valid as whatever hyperbole Bryan is spouting.

I like Todd. Haters gonna hate and all that.

nope. todd is a total idiot that doesnt ever know what he's talking about & also he wouldn't spell "corre" because it would "encourage wwe" i mean what the gently caress

Just starting out listening to a few of these. So far I've been liking Art of Wrestling and Kickout, but I'm on the fence about paying the money for Wrestling Observer. I listened to their recent free stuff and it was good, but 11 dollars a month for a podcast site seems a bit steep. Is there anything else to that website besides the podcasts/archives and the forum? And how's the forum community there?

the actual newsletter. the board is umm..different. its pretty good place all things considered and the front page content is worth it to me.

todd martin is easily the worst contributor to f4w and this includes jez and les thatcher

jez is dedicated to his craft and does full research before forming a very calculated and interesting opinion. todd martin has diarrhea of the mouth and also the rear end.

He's boring, he has an annoying voice and is often wrong about really basic things that he rants about. It does not make for enjoyable listening when you hear a guy go on a rant with a premise that is factually false.

he also loves to go on rants where he doesn't even believe or agree with the stance he's taking. he's there to play devil's advocate to bryan and it wears really thin and gets obnoxious as hell after about 2 shows

# ¿ Jun 10, 2011 01:18

yeah there have been times where bryan is an annoying idiot too, and i agree with the same rant on multiple shows thing, but todd would disagree with his grandma if it meant he could hear himself talk

The problem is they would try it on the first night and come up four feet short since WWE's ring is bigger and then they'd forever be thought of as fools.

wwe ring is 20x20. roh ring is 18x18. please know your rings before jokes. please.

Was Rich Swan the guy that turned up in Japan with like a t-shirt and five bucks, and then went to the exchange office and said "ME NO HAVE ALOT OF MONEY" in a hilariously racist accent?

They talked about Rich with Alan on F4daily today, just trying to make sure I have the right guy.

Is it just me or has Todd been awesome lately?

He's been so much more lively, it's like he's a totally different person.

Edit: Also, on a humorous note I was listening to an observer live from the early 00's and I recognised one of the callers voices, it was the guy from the LAW who always calls up to talk about the Diva's doing the very same a decade earlier to Dave Meltzer. I laughed.

is it jim from virginia?

I read some Granny hate on here, so I was worried I'd hate the first Bryan and Vinnie show I listened to. Three minutes in, Granny's definition of an iPad makes me question everyone in this thread.
