I've been no showing Jets games all season. That could work. Anything with extended travel is probably safe game as I have no car. But general bar nights aren't. I like hanging out and drinking.

2. why do you insist on being a JERK all the time?

Can't deny what I am.

3. did you have to take lessons to reach your level of JERKness?

I went to an all boys semi-military school for 4 years. That count?

A big comic fan from what I can tell. You should know him, you big jerk.

Huh...

I have a big horror collection which I don't think I've hid. BIG. Like 300 movies by now. That weirds some folks out.

Wrestling, of course. Most abnormal aspect of my wrestling fandom is probably that I can lose myself in EWR for hours.

I can lose myself in NBA 2K7 or MVP Baseball 2K5 for days. Not so much playing the games as doing all that other mundane stuff around it. Scouting, draft prep, training, working the trade wires, etc. I'm super excited that the next MLB game is set to have WAIVERS programmed in it. WAIVERS! Can you imagine being excited by that?

I did read comics but I haven't in awhile. I keep meaning to get back into it but I'm so far behind I have no idea where to start.

My passion for a long time was filmmaking so I loved to have a camera and play around with the editor. Passion's died a bit but I've been playing around again ever since that Wrestling Draft video.

I don't know. I'm not sure I'm that abnormal in general every day practice. I can do WEIRD stuff when the mood strikes me but my pattern is pretty mundane.

What originally brought you to OO?

I read Rick since News From Dayton, or whatever it was called. I loved Wrestleline. I just found OO soon after Wrestleline died and it was natural to stick with Rick. I started reading the boards when Jeb started doing "Crashing The Boards" and sooner or later I saw something I wanted to disagree with.

Top 5 wrestling moments of all-time?

Uhhh... I should not, I'm not really much of a list guy. In no particular order.
1. Booker T winning his first title (I'm a mark).
2. ECW invading RAW (the first time).
3. ECW joining the Invasion.
4. Benoit winning the Rumble.
5. Flair returning to WCW to reform the Horsemen (when they all had the tuxes).

I don't know. Maybe. There's probably a better 5. Ask me again towards the end of the week.

Your 10 desert island CDs/DVDs?

Again, not a list guy but here goes. I'm assuming there's a basic "no greatest hits" and "no TV DVDs/compilations" idea to this.

1. Usual Suspects
2. Rosemary's Baby
3. Godfather
4. Raiders of the Lost Ark
5. Last Crusade
6. Sin City
7. Exorcist
8. American History X
9. Hudson Hawk
10. Monty's Python's Quest for the Holy Grail

1. Dr. Dre - Chronic
2. Clash - London Calling
3. Alicia Keys - Songs in A Minor
4. Soundgarden - Superunknown
5. Method Man - Tical
6. Kid Rock - Devil Without a Cause
7. Randy Travis - High Lonesome
8. Nas - Illmatic
9. Eagles - Hotel California
10. Jackson Browne - Hold Out

That works, I guess.

Between '96, '98, '99, and '00, what was the best WS win for you to experience? Would you trade all 4 to just get Mattingly one?

'96 easy. It was my first and until then I felt like as much of a loser as anyone cheering for an organization who hasn't won in decades. And yeah, I might consider that Mattingly deal. That was a very bittersweet part of '96, knowing he was missing.

Top 10 worst Torre moves?

Ah jeeze... I don't know that I can come up with 10 specific moves.
1. Not bunting on Schilling.
2. Jeff Weaver instead of Mariano.
3. Any time he decided to rest 3 starters on the same day.
4. Tony Womack the OFer.
5. Refusing to play Lofton.
6. Every pitcher he thought he could use exactly like Mariano, never grasping that Mariano was special.
7. Batting A-Rod 8th in a playoff game. Ridiculous.
8. Not trying to stop the Cleveland game when the bugs were clearly affecting the pitchers. Umps have acknowledged they could have, Torre has acknowledged they should have.
9. Not bring Mariano in when Joba was clearly in trouble. As he had done countless times before.
10. Anything to do with Bubba Crosby?

I don't know. Torre was really more a day to day thing with me.

Top 10 worst Cashman moves?

Assuming Cashman's just responsible for all moves that haven't been made clear weren't him (Sheffield over Vlad):

1. Pavano
2. Farnsworth
3. The retarded handling of A-Rod's extension that resulted in a ridiculous deal and losing the Texas money.
4. Trading Tabata for a LOOGY and a corner OFer putting up career numbers just 2 months after labeling Tabata untouchable.
5. Drafting CJ Henry.
6. Rushing Hughes up.
7. Jaret Wright
8. Not dealing high on Kennedy?
9. Johnson over Beltran.
10. Every contract he gave to Enrique Wilson?

Should we just skip the season and send our money directly to AA?

I WILL BEAT HIM!

Who are your favourite horror-related actors and directors?

Carpenter has a great mind for horror and knowing that keeping things simple and vague are sometimes scarier. He knows the worth of tension in a horror. John Landis has always had a great mind for the horror in the real world. He doesn't venture in that often but when he does he can tell a story actually feels real and maybe has some heart, but which has something chilling about it. No actors really jump to mind. Campbell of course has the ability and I love him but I think he's sort of become too over the top as his career went on. Or maybe he was just typecast that way.

If you wrote a horror movie, what would it roughly be about?

I can't write. I've tried. I had a working script for awhile that was some weird mob film/cop drama/vampire combination inspired by Innocent Blood (a Landis film). Rough idea was that there was a mob boss at the end of his time, a wild boy son he wanted to groom to be his successor, and a cop on a downward spiral obsessed with busting him. It would be slowly revealed that the mob boss was a vampire and had been the boss for generations and what he really was grooming his "son" for was turning him. But the vampire could be tough to control without discipline which is why the son had to get his act together. But when turned he goes on a bit of a spree and bites the cop, whose downward spiral turns him rabid. So kind of a weird play on hero and villain where the obsessed cop was an animal and the mob boss was the most controlled.

But it sucked and I can't write. I never could. I've always been a technical guy and when my filmmaking projects were going I sorrounded myself with creative minds who fed my ideas and I made them work.

Boobies, I guess. Don't think I've ever used milkbags or sweater kittens and tits feels vulgar to me. Boobs is probably more common.

2. Do you like large, small or are you indifferent to size?

I hate huge breasts. I prefer a nice mid way set but its really all about proportions. I've seen girls with As that look great and I was surprised to find out a girl I was into had Ds because she just carried them better than most. Its all about what fits and looks good on a particular woman. There was this one girl who had a great ass and a great rack but the two of them didn't go together at all. It was bizarre.

3. On the corallary of nipples: Describe the type you like please.

Female ones. Those big areolas freak me out but otherwise, I'm good as long as I get to see/touch them.

Are you more of a fan of supernatural horror movies (vampires, wolfmen, monsters etc), or slasher / serial killer types?

Supernatural, probably. I like non-supernatural films but I tend to like them for the tension and real horror aspect. "That feels like it could happen" is way more chilling than stuff you know won't (or most do). But I really don't care for the generic bloody slasher that's about gore and killings. I've seen it, I'm good. Jason just ends up feeling like a poor man's Michael Myers.

I remember once calling you the nicest and most reasonable guy on OO or something to that effect.

What happened to the nice reasonable guy?

:-[ I was encouraged to get more forceful on OO and I did. I also probably went through some life changes. When I started on OO I was REALLY happy with life. For awhile there I was not. And OO felt like a good place to vent and let off steam since I knew people wouldn't hold it against me most of the time.

I'm still reasonable though.

What do you do for a living?

Right now? Nothing. I taught for a good while but that was part of what made my unhappy. I do videography jobs when I can get them and I work odd jobs with manual labor. But I'm looking at the moment.

Who is your favorite wrestler?

Low Ki, probably. I've been watching a ton of old TNA and I'm marking out to him again. I loved Booker forever but he lost a lot of steam in WWE and now I really don't care about him in TNA. I loved Benoit.

If you were a wrestler, what would be your finishing move? Your pose? Your ring name?

I always get the impression I'm kind of unique amongst wrestling fans as I've never once imagined myself as a wrestler. I used to do a Fisherman Suplex cradled for a pin when we wrestled in college. I always thought that was a sweet move. I did a Crossface sometimes but apparently that really hurts so I stopped. My pose would probably just be something generic like a slit throat sign. And can't I just be "Lucky Lopez" or something?

If you could be any kind of pro athlete, what would you be, what would be your position, and what would be your number?

1B NYYs. 13 was my number before A-Rod took it. 33?

Your favorite sporting moment?

'96 WS is up there. "Matteu! Matteu! Matteu!" is as well. I just watched some stuff on MLB Network and they showed Ripken breaking the streak and I kind of welled up. That was a pretty huge one.

Your least favorite sporting moment?

Joey Cora coming around to score in the 11th to win the '95 ALDS. Charles Smith unable to drop a layup is up there. Ewing's finger roll that SHOULD have gone in by what I understand about gravity is up there.

Best horror movie of all time?

Exorcist, Rosemary's Baby, and The Fog are probably my favorites. Rosemary's Baby might be the best because the isolation and fear Farrow brings across is pretty chilling. And Charles Grodin is in it.

Best horror movie series of all time?

All horror franchises suck. Night of the Living Dead probably retained quality the longest and has produced some great films after the original.

Worst horror movie of all time?

That's pretty hard considering there's directors who have basically made their careers off of being horrible. The horror genre is weird. But Blair Witch 2 always stood out to me as really horrible. Just a convoluted mess. I was a big fan of the original and I thought that film had a fair amount going for it. It had hot chicks and Jeffrey Donovan. But its really just a piece of shit. I'm sure there are worse. I know I've seen incomprehensible films. But they all blend together. That one stood out.

Do you have any diseases/ailments?

I've got arthritis in my right hand, shoulder, and knee. And my left ankle is fucked up from an injury I should have seen a doctor about a decade or so ago. I'm allergic to peanuts. And I have a few phobias. My fear of water is actually largely gone but I still get vertigo as recently as a week ago when I looked down over a mall railing. And what I once thought was claustrophobia is probably more agoraphobia. It really only acts up at times but when its bad I can't even deal with being in a room with people.

Describe the hottest girl you've been with.

First girl I hooked up with was GORGEOUS but I feel weird saying that since we're talking about a teenager. She just had one of the most amazing asses I've ever seen. Dark brown skin, beautiful. She was awesome. A couple of years later I ran into her and she was a crack whore, so that was heartbreaking.

As far as adults go 5'9" roundabout, dirty blonde, cute petite body, pierced nipples, apple ass. Big fan. I didn't get very far, but far enough to remember.

Describe the ugliest girl you've been with.

Big girl, not attractive at all, not very likable either. I was drinking too much and pissed at another girl but thankfully a fellow drunk saved me from going too far.

Do you own a digital camera?

I own a camcorder.

If so, what is your favorite photo that you've taken with it? Post it.

I don't take pictures. Really never had any use for them. But I've been meaning to get some of my videos up on Youtube for friends so maybe I'll try and do that this week and I'll post something.

Shucks...

Who's your favorite rapper?

Nas or Method. Probably Meth.

Who's your new favorite rapper?

Kanye and Fort Minor are the two acts I got into BIG in recent years who are now some of my favorite all time. But neither is terribly "new."

A buddy of mine promotes Mims and I've grown to be a fan. Gotta support the Heights. But shit, I KNOW I was listening to someone the other day and thinking he was my new favorite. Truth is I haven't been that clued into Hip Hop for awhile and I'm trying to catch up.

What do you think of the crunk from the dirty south?

Its fine party music and there are some really good songs. And if Outkast is considered crunk then there's some great stuff. But in general I'm not a fan. Too repetitive and just noise for me. But I like the basic sound if it goes beyond the Master P/Lil John stuff where they're just making a club song and that's it.

When Luda hit and was followed by Petey Pablo and Nappy Roots and that whole Southern wave I was a fan. No idea if that's really "crunk" but I do enjoy the dirty south sound when taken down a notch.

Tupac or Biggie?

2Pac. I really never was a fan of Biggie. I don't know what it is. I think his voice is a little too droning for me. But I love Pac and always have.

Unfortunately aside from Nas, KRS One, and a few others I've probably always preferred West Coast rap to NY rap. Always felt a little wrong about that. But 2Pac's born in NYC so I'm ok with taking him over Biggie.

Man you have great drinking buddies.

He actually wasn't even much of a buddy of mine. We were just 2 of the biggest drinkers on campus who had drank together on occasion. Which is what caught me off guard and probably convinced me he was right. For some reason the decision i was about to make was so wrong that even a casual acquaintance felt the need to stop me.

What's your drink of choice?

Beer. Jameson for shots. Jack & Coke, Capt Morgan & Coke, or Makers & Coke for mixed drinks. But its usually just beer and shots.

As far as what beer I usually am content with Bud or Bud light. Its easy and cheap. I enjoy the taste and it won't weigh too heavy. But I enjoy any number of beers when it hits me. Guinness or Stella probably being the most common.

Do you buy drinks to random cute girls in the bar or Pub? If so, what do you send there way?

I've done it every once and awhile but its never really worked so its never become a habit. I've done it more with girls I know a little but want an excuse to hang out with and get to know better. On those occassions its been either what I saw them drinking already or whatever shot was popular around that time and place. SoCo and lime was always a safe bet I found, but the problem is it makes me gag so its a bad drink to introduce into a night. If it works you'll have to do one later.

After how many drinks do you know this will not be "just a couple of drinks" night?

3 beers is my standard for "not a drinking night." If I get up after my 3rd beer I'm being responsible. I can have a shot in there too no problem. If I get a 4th beer or a 2nd shot then I'm probably in for a long night. Once I'm up to 4 or 5 I think its safe to assume I'll want to keep them coming and I'll be drinking them fast. And if I ever pour a mixed drink or straight alcohol then its a safe bet I'm going to bet trashed.

What would I need to do to beat Lou in the showdown?

Try mocking the Rangers. That's always been my approach with him.

[The Jewish Cunthead]
