Lord Alfred is headed to Florida soon, just thought I'd wait until the wrestler he's getting traded for gets written out so as not to spoil it.

Don't turn Tommy Rich heel by having him beat up on the most beloved masked man in the history of Southwest Championship Wrestling.

I just watched The Road Warriors vs. Super Strong Machine & Junji Takano which became Super Strong Machine & KILLER KHAN because The Roadies attacked Takano before the match and beat on him with their spiked wrist bands and Takano was too busted up to wrestle so Killer Khan came out in his street clothes and took his place. Seeing Khan wrestle in regular clothes, much less wrestling in them was weird but this was fun spectacle and Khan is really good as a selling babyface for someone who worked the majority of his career as a monster heel. This wasn't on the level of the Andre match from New Japan (but what is?) but still a ton of fun and then all hell breaks loose and the match gets thrown out and seemingly the entire All Japan locker room comes out to stop it and then Killer Khan attacks Riki Choshu after The Road Warriors finally leave the ring. Apparently there are more matches from All Japan with Killer Khan and The Roadies mixing it up and I'll be watching them soon.

Yea I'm going with Bobby Eaton on this one. Great teams with Koko Ware, Dennis Condrey, Stan Lane heck apparently he even made a tag team with George Gulas work.

Ugh why is there only the very end of The Bullet and Wrestling II tag match?? I don't care if they were both well past their prime by 89 that's like a dream team for me.

After the 10/16 HemisFair show, Southwest drops into free agency: 'The Masked Wildfire' Randy Rich and Bulldog Brower

Southwest Championship Wrestling @ San Antonio, TX - The HemisFair Arena 10/16/83 Moose Morowski vs. Ali Bey - Moose offered a handshake to start the match but only got a chop to the throat in return. Ali Bey beat on Moose Morowski for a bit until Morowski made a comeback and ended up finishing off The Turk with a shoulder breaker. Winner: Moose Morowski in 4:32 after a shoulder breaker Tony Torres & Mike Jackson vs. Bruiser Costa & Terry Adonis - Tony Torres started the match against Terry Adonis and held his own for the first few minutes until Adonis raked the eyes. Torres then wound up in the wrong corner and took a beating for a few minutes but couldn't be pinned for the 3 count. Torres managed to roll out of the way of a big elbow drop from Bruiser Costa and make it to the corner to tag Mike Jackson. Jackson came in fired up and hit some arm drags and dropkicks on the legal man Costa and Terry Adonis when he ran in to try and cut Jackson off. Costa used Adonis' interference to cheap shot Jackson from behind and try to whip him into the corner but Jackson countered with his turn around crossbody out of the corner! Costa dodged it at the very last second however and then hit a big senton splash on Jackson's back while he was on the mat and turned him over the cover and the count of 3. Winners: Bruiser Costa & Terry Adonis in 6:47 after a senton on Mike Jackson The Canadian vs. Larry Hamilton - The Canadian attacked before the bell sounded and just overwhelmed Larry Hamilton with his brawling, hard hitting style. The Canadian worked over Hamilton for a few minutes by just beating, pounding and stomping on him. The Canadian had Hamilton in his sights for his Running Boot but Hamilton ducked under it and surprised The Canadian with a roll up and the count of 3! Winner: Larry Hamilton in 5:20 after ducking under the Running Boot and rolling up The Canadian After the match, as referee Carl Fergie was raising Hamilton's arm in victory, The Canadian blasted him in the face with the Running Boot and then left the ring to a chorus of boos. Yin & Yang vs. Art Crews & Timothy Flowers - Yang started the match against Art Crews and the two wrestled each other totally cleanly for the opening minutes with the masked man from Japan gaining the advantage despite Crews being the larger of the two. Eventually Crews became frustrated at being out wrestled and tagged out to Timothy Flowers. Flowers came in and offered a handshake to which Yang bowed in return and then Flowers kicked him in the face while he was bowing! Flowers jumped on Yang and started pounding on him before Yang was able to escape his grasp and tag out to Yin. Yin came in and he and Flowers immediately engaged in a fight. Flowers got the better of the brawl and then slammed Yin down on the mat and went up to the top rope for an elbow drop. Yin moved out of the way however and Flowers crashed hard on the mat and Yin quickly climbed to the top rope and came off with a Flying Heabutt that connected and then pinned Timothy Flowers for the count of 3. Winners: Yin & Yang in 7:01 after a Flying Headbutt from Yin onto Timothy Flowers Tiny Anderson vs. Mike Masters - Masters spent a lot of time before the match and during the opening minutes just mocking Tiny Anderson. Masters treated him like a total joke and made sure to contrast his physique to Tiny Anderson's by flexing and strutting and challenging Tiny to do the same. Tiny refused to flex and instead offered a handshake to Mike Masters that caused Masters to just laugh and start mocking him even more. Anderson again went for a handshake and this time Masters right in his face and started trash talking him. Tiny simply continued to try and ask Masters to shake his hand so Mike Masters pie faced Anderson down to the mat and turned to the crowd and laughed. Anderson got up and charged at Masters and caught him unaware and tackled him to the mat! Anderson started pounding on Masters as the crowd went wild but it didn't last long as referee Carl Fergie pulled him off of Masters and as soon as Masters got back up to his feet he attacked Tiny and just started beating the hell out of him. Masters picked him up and body slammed him and just kept picking him up to body slam him over and over. Finally Masters got tired and tried to pin Tiny with just a foot on Tiny's chest but Tiny got the shoulder up to a big reaction! Masters got incensed and grabbed him up and put him into the Full Nelson! Tiny Anderson quickly gave up but Mike Masters was very slow in breaking the hold after the match, much to the consternation of referee Carl Fergie. Winner: Mike Masters by submission in 5:44 after a Full Nelson Loser of fall barred from Southwest: El Gran Apollo, Mil Mascaras & Omar Atlas vs. Jose Lothario, Mr. Mexico & Al Madril - Mil Mascaras wanted to start the match for his team but no one on the other side would get in the ring with him. Finally El Gran Apollo came in and started the match against Al Madril. Madril mimed knocking Apollo out with a bunch and Apollo charged at him but Madril retreated to his corner which baited Apollo into a 3 on 1 situation. Mascaras tried to come in and help him but referee Jack Howe held him back which just allowed Jose's team to continue their 3 on 1 assault. Madril tagged out to Mr. Mexico who came in and put a chin lock on Apollo while the crowd cheered Apollo on. Apollo started to fight out of the chin lock but Jose distracted the referee which allowed Mr. Mexico to yank him back down by his hair. Apollo started his way back to his feet again and this time shoved Mr. Mexico off him into his corner, knocking Jose off the apron and dove into his corner to make the tag to Mil Mascaras just as Al Madril ran into the ring to try and cut him off. Mascaras came in and started laying punches into Madril! Mr. Mexico tried to attack Mascaras with a double sledge but Mascaras caught him coming in with a shot to the midsection and then slammed Mr. Mexico & Al Madril's heads together. Madril rolled out of the ring and then Mascaras went to work on Mr. Mexico just grinding him down on the mat, constantly switching up the holds and punishing him. Finally Mascaras just got off of Mr. Mexico and challenged him to make the tag to Jose Lothario! Jose looked reluctant to take the tag but finally did and came in and got into his boxing stance. Mil charged at Jose and ducked a jab from Jose and came back with a big looping right hand of his own that put Jose down on the mat. Mascaras got on top of Jose and started pounding on him with punches until Al Madril ran in and hit Mascaras with a big knee to the back which allowed Jose to connect with a big punch from underneath Mascaras that caused the masked man to fall over. Jose then climbed on top of Mascaras and started raining down punches of his own on the masked man. Jose was pulled off of Mil by the referee and Mascaras wanted to fight some more but Omar Atlas was shouting from the corner that he wanted to get tagged in so Mascaras reluctantly tagged out and let Omar Atlas come in. Jose tried to box with Atlas, but Atlas started to roll around the mat, causing Jose to get frustrated at being unable to catch Atlas. Jose decided he'd had enough of playing cat and mouse with Omar Atlas and tagged out to Al Madril. Madril came in and offered a handshake to Omar Atlas which Omar refused but it was enough to throw Atlas off and allow Madril to catch him with a cheapshot. Madril started choking Atlas on the ropes while Jose & Mr. Mexico kept the referee distracted and then Madril dropped Atlas through first across the top rope. Madril went for the cover but Atlas kicked out at two. Madril decided to go for his finisher, the Indian Deathlock but as he was putting it on, Omar Atlas sat up and grabbed Madril and pulled him into a small package and got the count of 3 before Mr. Mexico or Jose Lothario could run in to break the pin! Winners: Omar Atlas, El Gran Apollo & Mil Mascaras in 13:29 after Omar Atlas pinned Al Madril with a small package. As a result of the match, Al Madril is barred from Southwest Championship Wrestling! Mr. Mexico and Jose quickly ran into the ring and started to stomp on Omar Atlas and when Mascaras & Apollo tried to run in and help him, Al Madril leg dived Apollo and held him down while Jose & Mr. Mexico grabbed Mascaras and threw him over the top rope. Madril and Apollo rolled around on the mat exchanging punches while Mr. Mexico quickly set up his piledriver on Omar Atlas and Jose Lothario spiked him down! Mil Mascaras quickly returned to the ring with a steel chair which sent Jose & Mr. Mexico diving out of the ring to avoid him and they quickly ran back to the locker room. Al Madril wasn't as lucky and got blasted with the chair by Mil Mascaras. Mascaras and Apollo then turned their attention to Omar Atlas who was down and not moving on the mat, suffering the effects of the Spike Piledriver. Omar Atlas had to be removed from the ring on a stretcher as he was totally unconscious and possibly suffering from a broken neck. Dog Collar Match: Steve Pardee vs. Bulldog Brower - The two men started with a tug of war over the chain with neither man really giving an inch. Brower started wrapping the chain around his fist to shorten the distance. Pardee did the same and both men ended up within striking distance, exchanging punches with chain wrapped fists and both men were quickly bloodied. Brower yanked Pardee into him and started biting on the cut, opening him up even worse and then started choking him with the chain. Brower wrapped the chain around his arm and went for an elbow drop but Pardee rolled out of the way, yanking the chain at the same time causing Brower to fall hard on the mat. Pardee fired up and started biting Bulldog Brower's cut in revenge! Lord Alfred Hayes jumped on the apron and distracted Pardee long enough for Brower to attack him from behind and then start whipping Pardee's back with the chain. Bulldog wrapped the chain around his arm, waiting for Pardee to get back to his feet and then pulled on the chain with one arm while charging in to clothesline Pardee with the other. Pardee ducked the clothesline however and ended up circling around Brower, wrapping the chain around the Bulldog's neck! Pardee yanked down on the chain, pulled Brower in the Bulldog position and spiked him down hard and then covered him for the win! Winner: Steve Pardee in 6:49 after a chain assisted Bulldog Mr. Saito & Yoshi Seito vs. Jim Duggan & Ken Lucas - Jim Duggan starts the match for his team against Yoshi Seito. Seito tries a lock up and gets shoved half way across the ring. Seito gets up and stares at Duggan in a look of awe and fear while Duggan just stands in the middle of the ring with his hands on his hips. Seito tries to charge at Duggan with a shoulder block and just ends up flat on his back for his efforts. Mr. Saito shouts instructions to Seito in Japanese and Seito tries to throw a dropkick on Duggan but Duggan swats him down and then drops a big elbow on him and goes for a cover which Mr. Saito runs in and breaks up. Duggan challenges Saito to get in the ring so Yoshi Seito makes the tag out. Mr. Saito tries a lockup with Duggan and they fight over it for a good bit, circling around the ring with neither man able to gain the advantage until Saito gets Duggan close enough to the corner for Yoshi Seito to grab Duggan's tights and pull him back into the corner. Saito breaks off of the lockup and chops Duggan across the chest but Duggan responds with a big right hand that staggers Saito backwards and then blasts Seito with one that knocks him off the apron as the crowd goes wild. Duggan gets himself back into the center of the ring and challenges Saito but Saito has had enough of Duggan and wants him to tag out to Ken Lucas. Duggan doesn't really want to tag out but Lucas wants in so he finally relents. Ken Lucas comes in and Saito challenges him to try and hit him with a shoulder block. Lucas charges in and only bounces off Saito which makes the big man laugh and challenge Lucas to do it again. Lucas bounces off the ropes and charges in again but this time slides between Saito's legs and comes up with a series of big right hands when Saito turns around and then puts Saito into a headlock. Saito tries to lift Lucas up for a suplex from the headlock but Lucas fights him over into a headlock takedown and grinds on it now that they're down on the mat. Yoshi Seito comes in and kicks Lucas in the fact to break the headlock which causes Jim Duggan to try and rush in but Jack Howe holds him back and that allows Yoshi Seito and Mr. Saito to make an illegal switch. Seito puts Lucas in a headlock of his own and the ref turns back around and sees Seito in the ring. He asks Saito if they made a tag and Saito says yes while the crowd tries to tell Jack Howe that they didn't but Howe allows Yoshi Seito to stay in the ring. Ken Lucas gets worked over for a while as he breaks out of the headlock only to be cut off by Mr. Saito when he tries to get to his corner to make the tag. Saito & Seito do another illegal switch as Jim Duggan again tries to come in after Saito cut off Lucas from the tag and cause Jack Howe to be distracted. Saito puts Lucas in his modified kneeling figure four in the middle of the ring but this time it's Duggan who comes in and breaks a hold with a big haymaker to Mr. Saito's jaw. Saito and Lucas both start crawling towards their corner when suddenly The Zambuie Express get to ringside and attack Jim Duggan! They pull him down off the apron and start beating on him and when Jack Howe sees it he calls for the bell! Winners: Jim Duggan & Ken Lucas by disqualification in 10:24 after interference from the Zambuie Express The Zambuies slam Duggan's head off the mat and then roll him into the ring and start stomping on him. Ken Lucas tries to help but gets thrown over the top rope by Elijah Akeem. Kareem Muhammad bounces off the ropes to splash Jim Duggan but suddenly finds Mr. Saito standing in his way! Mr. Saito is hot about getting DQ'd over their interference and starts poking Kareem Muhammad in the chest! Elijah Akeem comes over and starts threatening Mr. Saito and Yoshi Seito tries to get Saito to leave the ring but Saito pushes him back and then shoves Kareem Muhammad which barely budges the big 6'5, 350 pounder. Kareem Muhammad shoves him back and they have a war of words which allows Jim Duggan to recover and he gets up and starts throwing punches at everyone in sight! He nails Saito and then starts trying to fight off The Zambuie Express but eventually succumbs to the numbers game and Mr. Saito has had enough and he and Yoshi Seito leave Jim Duggan to his fate. Ken Lucas tries to get back into the ring but gets knocked off the apron by Muhammad and falls hard on the floor. Elijah Akeem slams Duggan down and holds his legs for Muhammad to splash him when suddenly Moose Morowski hits the ring with a chair and blasts Kareem Muhammad in the back with it as he's bouncing off the ropes to hit the splash! Elijah Akeem tries to get to Morowski and only eats a chair shot for his troubles also and as Morowski starts climbing into the ring The Zambuie Express take off out of the other side and head out of the arena! Jim Duggan gets up and looks ready to fight anything that moves but Morowski stands his ground and offers his hand in friendship to Jim Duggan. Duggan stares at him for a moment but then shakes his hand and the two of them leave the ring together and help Ken Lucas up off the floor and the 3 of them walk back to the locker room together. Roy Lee Welch vs. Bill Ash - Roy Lee Welch came out first and Bill Ash did not appear when he was announced. The ring announcer declared that he had until the referee's count of 10 to come out or he would lose the match by forfeit but the count of 10 was reached and Bill Ash never appeared. Winner: Roy Lee Welch by forfeit When Roy Lee Welch went to the timer's table to pick up the Television Title he was attacked by Bill Ash who came out of the crowd! Ash slammed his head off the table and then took the TV Title and smacked Welch upside the head with it when Welch was getting back to his feet. Ash grabbed Welch and rolled him into the ring and then got a chair and went in the ring after him. Ash slammed the chair down on Roy's leg and Roy screamed in pain! Suddenly Tony Torres and Mike Jackson ran down to the ring to try and help but Ash cut them off as they were coming through the ropes with a chair shot for each of them. Ash started to wrap the chair around Roy Lee Welch's leg when The Masked Wildfire ran out and attacked Ash from behind! Ash fought off The Masked Wildfire from Hendersonville, TN but while he was doing so, Art Crews & Timothy Flowers ran down to ringside and pulled Welch out of the ring. Crews and Flowers put Welch between them and started helping him to the back. Bill Ash turned around to go back to Welch and saw him being helped down the aisle and was enraged. He kicked Wildfire between the legs and then while he was bent over hooked him into position for the Fuller Leglock! Ash pulled back on the leg hard and Wildfire screamed in pain as his leg snapped from the pressure! More wrestlers ran out from the locker room to stop him, but by the time they got down to the squared circle Ash was already retreating, the damage to The Masked Wildfire having already been done. Southwest & National Tag Team Titles: Texas Tornado Street Fight: The Fabulous Ones vs. The Texas Dynasty © - The Texas Dynasty did their same deal as last week, dropping their titles into Sunshine's wheel barrow but as soon as that was done, The Fabulous Ones charged out of the ring after them and the fight started right there in the aisle. Stan Lane and David Von Erich fought their way up the aisle towards the ring while Tully and Steve Keirn battled in the aisle and near the entrance to the locker room. The two separate battles raged back and forth for almost 5 minutes with The Fabs in control but The Texas Dynasty trying their best to not get overwhelmed. Eventually Steve Keirn went to suplex Tully on the concrete floor but Tully kicked him in the groin and then slammed his head into the concrete. Tully stumbled back up the aisle towards the ring where Stan Lane had David Von Erich in the corner and was on top of him raining down punches. Tully jumped up on the apron and pulled Stan Lane down over the top rope and Stan tumbled hard down onto the floor. Tully tried to cover him but Lane kicked out before the count of 2. David came out of the ring and he and Tully started to double team Stan Lane. David grabbed a chair and Tully whipped Stan Lane into it while David held it out. Stan Lane stumbled back to his feet bleeding only to get the chair slammed down on his head again. Suddenly Steve Keirn came running down the aisle with a board and slammed it into David's back and then nailed Tully across the head with it as well. Keirn went back and forth on both members of The Dynasty, hitting them with the board until they retreated to the high ground of the ring. David and a bloody Tully Blanchard challenged Steve Keirn to get in the ring with them while Keirn stayed outside of the ring, helping Lane back to his feet. Keirn and Lane started throwing chairs into the ring at The Texas Dynasty with David and Tully doing their best to dodge them. Finally Keirn & Lane grabbed two chairs and took opposite sides of the ring while Tully & David picked up chairs in the ring and waited on them to come in. David tried to swing down over the top rope at Lane on the floor and ended up missing and getting return fire right across the top of his head from Stan Lane which opened up a big cut on David's head. David fell backwards which was the signal for The Fabs to rush the ring. Tully managed to nail Keirn with the chair as he tried to slide in under the ropes but got caught from behind with a chair shot from Stan Lane. Stan Lane grabbed Tully and whipped him into the ropes and then caught him with a big karate kick and Tully fell onto one of the chairs The Fabs had tossed into the ring. Steve Keirn and Stan Lane picked Tully up and got him set for a Double DDT onto a chair when suddenly David slammed back of them across the shoulders with one big chair shot. Lane went down while Keirn stumbled forward and David grabbed him and whipped him into the ropes and went for the high knee but Keirn dodged out of the way at the last second and bounced off the other side of the ring and came flying into David Von Erich with a Flying Forearm that sent David flying out over the top rope and down to the floor. Sunshine desperately tried to get him back up as The Fabs once again grabbed Tully and this time successfully hit their Double DDT on the chair and Steve Keirn pinned Tully for the count of 3 and the win! Winners and NEW AWA Southwest Tag Team Champions AND National Tag Team Champions: The Fabulous Ones in 16:51 The Fabulous Ones celebrate in the ring with their two sets of belts while Sunshine cried and cradled the unconscious David Von Erich's bloody head in her lap. Tully stayed completely motionless in the ring until well after The Fabulous Ones had left the ring.

Just watched the Bobby Fulton vs. Eddie Gilbert match and thought it was a lot of fun. It starts with quite a bit of your Memphis style "walk and talk" that I thought was well done and then settles down into a pretty good little match. Will try and watch the Tommy Rogers vs. Dutch Mantell match before I go to sleep.

Wasn't really a complaint about the long show just an observation. Though the one thing you might want to do to tighten things up is instead of repeating the run downs of what the upcoming arena shows are going to have on them, just mention that the advertisement was replayed after you do it the first time.

Dino Bravo getting involved with The Midnight Express seems like a good way to make up for the loss of The Rougeaus. Armand continues to be a whipping boy even if Rene Goulet bailed him out of taking even more of a beating. Interested to see what ends up happening between Lefebvre and Poisson. Definitely feels like a bit of a transition period for Montreal right now after the big October 1st show.

Well seems like I have competition in the really long TV department now. Austin Idol and Ernie Ladd in a 1 hour time limit is a rather bold choice to make. Pretty good interviews here from everyone, especially Landell. I'm going to miss him in Memphis. That was a rather unique way to write him out too. The use of Jerry Jarret as the authority figure is a little jarring to me though since he rarely did that and usually left that role to Eddie Marlin (who was great at it) I don't know about using "young star" to describe Tommy Gilbert

By my count, here is where everyone stands on the cap. This will let you know if you're going to have to cut anyone loose and what your status is as far as being able to take on new talent in drafts/trades. I listed the managers in case I got any of them wrong and they're being used as a wrestler (not 100% sure on guys like Adnan, Robley, Angelo Poffo & Armand Hussein) I counted Carl Fergie in my 37 but I have no intentions of using him as a wrestler I just picked him up as a ref. Is he going to count against my cap or not? Southwest only ever had 1 REAL referee with Jack Howe and Juan Reynosa was a jobber/referee combo for them and I wanted to upgrade from him. If Carl Fergie can't be counted as "free" on my roster then could I at least count him under the manager limit? Lord Alfred is leaving soon and I'll have an opening there. I am also not counting guys from Japan on developmental deals against anyone's cap on this as they are only on a roster 3-4 months. AWA: 38 & 3 (Sheik Adnan, Buck Robley, Precious) Southwest: 33 & 3 (Jim Holliday, Sunshine, Carl Fergie) Florida: 28 & 1 (Freddie Blassie, Lord Alfred Hayes) Southeastern: 36 & 1 (Jim Cornette) WWC: 34 & 2 (Barrabas, Hugo Savinovich) WWA: 37 & 3 (Bobby Heenan, Gary Hart, James J. Dillon) JCP: 29 & 1 (Buddy Rogers) WCCW: 25 & 1 (Armand Hussein) All Star: 26 & 3 (Jimmy Hart, Paul Ellering, Jonathan Boyd) Memphis: 30 & 2 (Humperdink, JR Foley) Mid-South: 32 & 1 (Paul Jones) I took Grand Wizard off the roster page now ICW: 31 & 3 (Angelo Poffo, Miss Linda, Billy Spears) Montreal:33 & 2 (Capt. Lou Albano & Eddie Creachman)

I really liked the early 80s AWA but man I did not like Mad Dog AT ALL. That little shit didn't want to sell ANYTHING.

LOVE this match that only goes about 7 minutes:

Steamboat to Stampede? I thought that one was good to go since it was the only one that passed the vote.

If you didn't watch this Fabs match yet I highly recommend it. Video quality sucks and it's a handheld but man it's one of the wildest matches I've ever seen:

Yea I don't really know where the "Lawler didn't get over in Southwest" talking point is even coming from. He's over with the crowds on the little bit of footage we have of him in Southwest. He was used as an outside talent to work main events, he was never going to be a regular. Judging his "run" on how often he worked/how long he stayed there would be a flawed metric.

Perro Aguayo vs. Jerry Brisco is a pretty wacky pairing that I really wish was on tape. Aguayo vs. Ron Starr sounds like it could have been a whole lot of fun too.

Something needs to be done about Sunshine's loaded purse. I would have thought the Stud Stable had better sense than to attack Buzz. I mean it's 3 on 1 but still...that dude is nuts.

That's 4 people in favor of that idea so I guess if anyone has any objections they should speak up. I don't know that we really need to have another poll over it.

In a bit of self criticism, maybe this roster cap will be a good thing for me after all. Just realized I have 32 wrestlers in 10 matches on the upcoming HemisFair show.

Glad you're now digging into some of the Southeastern you got from me in the last trade. I need to get back to watching it myself. I really do love Saito in that setting and loved his promo about "American wrestler never train only want to drink beer, talk to girl never go gym like Mr. Saito" Jimmy Golden in particular was an awesome heel in the footage from early 1981 that I've seen. Yea...I really need to start watching that again. Then you got Condrey & Rose there and Condrey seemed to always take a backseat on promos by his partner (Phil Hickerson) or his manager (Cornette) but he's actually pretty good in his own right.

Gotta agree this system is fine it's not like there is a ton of useful talent that gets introduced each month and a lot of the guys haven't even been getting drafted lately.

What's with the hostility Johnny? You're in one of the few states where you don't have to be pissed off because the weed man isn't answering his phone.
