12-27 Big Bad Raw Blog






What's up Big Bad Wrestling fan? Were you expecting JCall? Well that lazy bum decided to take the week off! Something about the holiday season blah blah blah! Then he said something like "Working for Big Bad Sports Daddy is like working for a Chinese Sweat Shop etc etc etc" .... I mean he only wrote 46 Raw blogs this year! What kind of crap is that? I kid,I kid



Well my name is Larry Stanley and I host the ShowStoppers podcast every Tuesday on bigbadsportsdaddy.com. If you haven't listen to ShowStoppers check it out. It is the Best Damn Wrestling Podcast on the Net! You see what I did there? I stole JCall's catch phrase because I'm Awesome! There I just stole John Conner's(Also on ShowStoppers) catch phrase which he stole from The Miz which he stole from the 80's teenagers too.

Before I get to Raw there is one more difference I would like to point out between JCall and myself. That is I like hot chicks! If you are reading this on blogger.com you'll notice the hot diva action up top! If you are reading on BBSD then go check out the Diva action on blogger. Now that is some cross promotion. Ok on to Raw.


10 seconds in and I just heard Michael Cole's voice! We are off to a bad start Big Bad Universe. There is John Cena sweet. I really don't get why so many people hate Cena. The guy is great! His mic skills are better then any of the current WWE Superstars,he's funny (see Michael Cole has The Miz manscapped below his belly button comment) and the you can't wrestle chants are bogus. Cena has put on several quality matches this year at PPVs. I think the Nexus storyline worked if the point was to get people to stop booing the WWE's golden boy. Thank God that's over now, finally! It did drag on a little to long. I am totally on board with a Cena/Punk feud. That's what the WWE is teasing and I hope they deliver. The verbal match between the two of them to start Raw was fantastic.

The WWE announces two matches Sheamus vs Orton which is kick arse and Jerry The King Lawler vs Miz which is not so kick arse. Come on King keep the boots unlaced pal. The WWE is taking a page right out of TNA's playbook and putting the oldest guy they can find in the main event. Yawn! On a normal week I would fast forward through that nonsense but since I'm writing this blog I guess I have to watch.

Ted vs Santino? I like them both but what's the point? Can't you find someone to team Ted up with to compete for the tag titles? JCall has ranted about Ted jr being wasted and he is 100% right. This 30 second match just proved that. Pathetic WWE writers. You should be ashamed to cash your paychecks this week. The twin cobras at the end slightly amusing but still not worth that match.

The Miz and Riley backstage. "Hey Riley you better win your match" I think I saw this last week and maybe the week before and maybe even the week before that. There he is! It's the the most talented wrestler in the WWE John Morrison! Morrison vs Riley it has a point and it is advancing a storyline. "Riley how many times does someone look at you and go DUH?" nice line Morrison! If this was on facebook it would read Larry Stanley likes this. There you go WWE nice stipulation. I am about 99% sure Morrison is going to win but still have that little doubt. The match was ok. I was right Morrison won. The WWE is doing a great job of having Morrison over come obstacles and he is really playing the underdog role well. WTF? Falls count anywhere next week on Raw? Cole is right that is sickening! All that tells me is Miz keeps his title and Morrison won't be in the WWE title match at the Royal Rumble. Thanks A-Holes

OK Punk has something big plan my guess is a big let down. Daniel Bryan and Tyson Kidd w Jackson Andrews snorefest.biz and then another backstage interview with Orton? Orton just told me he will be in the WWE title match vs Miz at the Rumble. There was an entire segment of backstage promos. Whatever! Give me something good after the break WWE!

Nope nothing good! We get Kidd vs the jobber Mark Henry. Not worth writing about fast forward on the dvr.

There we go put a mic in Miz's hands. Miz is second only to Cena with his Mic skills. This match is going to suck but Miz with a Mic = greatness. This match with Miz and the King really sucks. Waste of time!!! So really? really? really? I am supposed to think a 90 year old man can go toe to toe with the WWE champ? There is Morrison to little to late. Interference and Miz loses. Not very entertaining moving on

King Sheamus and Punk backstage time kill and keep moving

Divas match sorry if it's not LayCool then I'm not watching.

Hey back to Punk backstage. This plan for Cena is taking over Raw tonight and I smell chester cheesy or even worst I smell Nexus.


Daniel Bryan vs Zack Ryder. Bryan wins more time wasted. Ryder would be a great guy to team Teddy jr. up with and put the tag titles on them for while. Or at least feud them with Santino and Kazloff. Woo Woo Woo a Miz attack on King! Great and unexpected. There is a payoff after suffering through their match. Miz gets more heat and looks like the biggest heel in the WWE now. That is some good writing WWE.

Orton vs Sheamus all I can say is pay per view quality! The Match of the night on Raw. Orton wins and it's looking more and more like he is the Miz's opponent at the Rumble now.

Side note that Bobby the Brain DVD looks great! The main event on Smackdown does not.

It's Surprise time! What you got for us Punk? Cena out first? I thought Punk was calling him out? Please God don't let the Surprise be Nexus! Here we go Cena is going to find Punk and pow! pow! There is Nexus!BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!

I knew we couldn't go two weeks without seeing those Monkey Turds. Cole said Cena's Nexus Nightmare is back and I think the WWE's fan nightmare is back. Aren't we all sick of Cena vs Nexus?


There it is Punk is the new Nexus leader! That was it. I along with half of you called this Let Down! Why do we need Nexus involved in a Cena/Punk feud? The feud would be fine on it's own! Lazy and Pathetic writing WWE!

I think let down describes 12-27's Raw to a tee. There were a few shining moments like Orton vs Sheamus and Miz beating down the King. Most of the rest of he show was a huge let down for this substitute WWE Blogger. Thanks for reading! JCall should take the Raw blog duties back over next week. Make sure you check out the ShowStoppers podcast on bigbadsportsdaddy.com for more Hot Wrestling Opinions served up fresh on Tuesdays. Thanks for the read and clicks!

Spare Bowls





First I want to say haha to Nebraska fans! I’m glad you lost the Big 12 Championship. You are all annoying D-Bags. Your mighty leader of men Coach Pelini is a jack ass! You deserve to play a 6-6 Washington team in the holiday bowl. You know who will be watching this game? You proud Cornhusker and your wife/cousin! This is the first spare bowl on my list.

A big problem with college football is there are way to many bowls these days. I would say the main problem but I think we all know lack of playoffs is the main issue. When I was a kid going to a bowl game was a big deal! No coach would of got fired ala Dave Wannstedt for making it to a bowl game. Now you better make it to a big money bowl or you gone.


I thought this week I would look at the 30+ bowl games and eliminate the ones no one will watch. The list starts with CornHusker vs Huskie. We have already seen this garbage! We all know the black shirts will stop the very over rated Jake Locker and Husker wins to my chagrin.


Ok New Mexico Bowl you are Happy with two 6-6 teams? One thing I know is I won’t be stopping down for BYU and UTEP. Sorry New Mexico your bowl is eliminated!

It’s the New Orleans Bowl Troy vs. Ohio. Who Cares? Gone!

So no one wanted Boise State except the Las Vegas Bowl? The Las Vegas Bowl is supposed to be Mountain West # 1 vs Pac 10 # 5 but that did not happen this year! SO you have Boise vs Utah. Come on man! I’m not saying Boise should go to a BCS bowl but 1 loss to a very good Nevada team should not land you in the Las Vegas Bowl! If the Holiday Bowl was smart they would of paired Boise vs Nebraska. Now you have a game! They didn’t and we all know what is going to happen here! Boise wins by 10,000. Las Vegas Bowl you are eliminated.


The Texas bowl will pair Big 12 whipping boy Baylor vs Big 10’s bitch Illinois. Waste of time and Space! Texas Bowl you’re f’n out!

The Meineke Car Bowl pays out a million bucks! Nice but the give us USF vs Clemson. Gag! Barf! And flush down the toilet bowl. This is a game we will never see on ESPN Classic even with their 24/7/365 coverage of old sports. Sorry Car Bowl hasta la vista baby!

The Ticket City Bowl will be played at the Cotton Bowl but the Cotton Bowl will be at Jerry world in Arlington. Make sense? Hell no! The Ticket City bowl also lined up the greatness of Texas Tech(I can’t even type that with a straight face) and NorthWestern Spares. TicketCity Bowl you never should have been created. This game is going to be about as lame as putting your guns up!

Next week it’s on to the BCS where certain match ups have really pissed me off.

TCU EASTbound




TCU shocked the college football world by bolting to the Big East this week. As a TCU fan I think it's a great thing for the Frogs and the Big East! As a college football fan i feel sorry for the Mountain West and NCAAF.

The Mountain West will lose Utah and BYU after this season and TCU after next. That's a big hit. Unlike the Big 12 the Mountain West went out and did something about it and replaced the schools that left. The Mountain West lost the University of Utah and BYU but has replaced them with Boise State, Fresno State, and Nevada. Now you have a pretty strong conference but wait TCU bolts! WTH?

Could you imagine TCU and Boise in the same conference? That could develop into one hell of a rivalry. Then you add an up and coming program like the Nevada Wolfpack and a decent program like Fresno you are building a nice base. You can argue this conference of misfits would be stronger then the Big East,ACC or even the Big 10. Yet they will not get an automatic BCS Bowl bid and because of that TCU left.

What Could of Been
Mountain West North
Boise
Nevada
Utah
BYU
Wyoming
Colorado State

MW South
TCU
Air Force
San Diego State
New Mexico
UNLV
Fresno State

and a Mountain West Championship Game





However that's all what could of been. The reality is TCU made a great move for them! This move also really strengthens the Big East Football schedule also. So TCU and Big East both win! Even though they left the Mountain West out in the cold they had to. If they ever want to play for a national title this is the only way.

Now TCU will be playing in front of the biased East Coast Media every week. They won't be a little red headed step child along with Boise State. They won't be that cute little school that went undefeated. The rest of the nation is going to find out what us Fort Worth peeps already know which is the TCU Frogs are contenders.

Let me take a shot at the mighty Texas Longhorns. Shame on you! You greedy bastards! You made sure you got paid and to hell with the Big 12! You should of been begging the Big 12 to add TCU which TCU would of jumped at but you didn't.Your Longhorn's attitude was let's keep the conference small so we can make an extra 5 million a year. Then Karma bit you in the ass didn't she? What Bowl are the Longhorns going to again? Oh wait......


TCU's move good for them! Great for the Big East! Bad for college football overall:(

Regulators Bet Up



They Took My Rings, They took my Rolex! I looked at the brothers and said damn what's next?




Yeah it's been a tough couple of weeks for the old Professor L-Train. My record picking against the line has dropped from 19-8-1 to 21-14-1 over the past two weeks! I would like to apologize to all the students at Sports Daddy University. I know I let some of you down. This week you all get an A! In A Lot of money if you bet my picks!

It's funny on Friday night I was having drinks with my Friend Paul and he told me how horrible my picks were last week. "You are taking to many road dogs and you know better!" he said. Turns out he was right. OK this week safe picks and hot chicks


LSU -32.5 over UL Monroe. Really who the hell is UL Monroe and how is this spread only 32.5?


AZ -4 over USC
Nevada WolfPack HOOWWWWWWWWWWWW -8.5 over Fresno State


NFL where my record is now 10-12-1

STL +6 over San Fran
TB -6.5 over Carolina

Big Bad Best Bets 11-4


Well the World Series is over and my picking distraction is gone. I know my picks sucked last week and to be honest with you, I didn’t put as much time into doing the research as I should have. The Professor would like to apologize to you that lost some cabbage.

Like any good gambler knows tomorrow is another day. This week I have done my diligent research and guarantee you I will go 3-1 this week at least. How can I guarantee that? Because I’m confident and maybe a little cocky that’s how! So now let’s all pray to the football Gods or Lady Luck or whoever you worship when placing your bets. The Professor says:

Baylor +7 over OSU
Nevada One man Wolfpack -10.5 over Idaho
Missouri -4 over Texas tech
OU-3 over Texas A&M


It’s a tough year for Texas schools unless your name starts with a T and ends with a U and has a C in between. As most of the nation will be watching Alabama vs. LSU at 2:30 on Saturday, I will be watching the #3 team in the country take on the # 5. It’s TCU vs Utah and this should be the national game but the evil SEC wins again and gets the network game. GO FROGS and I’m praying to the Football Gods and Lady Luck that you are the Big Bad Purple Bracket Buster .
