Loss Posted June 14, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2015 LOL, the Tuesday Bryan & Vinny & Craig show originally started off with Craig saying the next song contest would be about Bryan's love of black women wrestlers until apparently people on the board said it was racist and the show was uploaded with an obviously added on intro and the whole opening segment dumped like a raunchy terrestrial radio bit. The funny thing was the whole bit was set up as a jab on Bryan's unexplained fandom of Naomi and how he's always saying she should win the Divas belt, and by the disclaimer that was posted on the show link you'd think there was a string of N-bombs that had to be edited out. Song contests? Aren't they a wrestling website? No kidding. Dave has got to update his model. The editorial standards aren't strong in the newsletter either, but people forgive that because he writes such a huge amount each week. But that kind of thing can destroy Dave's rep over time even if he has nothing to do with it. Whether it's him or someone else, someone should be screening everything that goes on the site against a set of consistent standards. Just imagine if that site was run like an actual news enterprise.

Robert S Posted June 23, 2015 Report Share Posted June 23, 2015 Meltzer had a great story on the breaking new audioshow yesterday. After talking about Buddy Landel he spoke a couple of minutes about Cora Combs (who also passed away yesterday, at the age of 92). He spoke about watching some Crush Gals matches together with her and (one of her) comment was: "Where are the tits?" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bix Posted June 24, 2015 Report Share Posted June 24, 2015 Its a great, funny story. What's funny about it, I don't know the person so maybe there is something there? I think the implication was that she was surprised that there were female wrestlers getting over without overt traditional sex appeal being part of the package.

WingedEagle Posted June 24, 2015 Report Share Posted June 24, 2015 Jesus, have a drink. Take it easy. She asked where the T&A was in mid-80s Japanese women's wrestling. She didn't use some racist term to ask if she could buy them as whores for an internment camp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grimmas Posted June 24, 2015 Report Share Posted June 24, 2015 I'm pretty calm, I do find it weird that some old person asking why girls don't have boobs (not being aware that all women are not sexual objects) is a great and funny story and why Dave Metlzer felt the need to share it and others felt the need to mention it as something to listen to.

Like Brian's racist grandma on the Bryan and Vinny show? Care to elaborate ? I haven't listened to this godforsaken show in years (I mean, are people really paying to hear Alvarez grandma blab nonsense ?) (and yeah, I second the sentiment. Old fucks saying stupid shit aren't funny just because they are old fucks) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

khawk20 Posted June 25, 2015 Report Share Posted June 25, 2015 I hate that old people get a pass, for being sexist/racist, etc... I think it's far from funny. I don't have a problem with it if it's honest sentiment expressed in a way that might not be PC now, but is still an honest question, which is how I took her comment when I read it. I hope I get the same consideration when I'm older...mostly because I'm closer to "old fart" status than most of you here, I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wrong language can be ok... racist/sexist is not, even if you are old. I'm not offended by what she said (it is whatever), I just find it very bizarre someone would point that out as a great/funny story. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
