Crushing Hopes and Dreams (prologue)

Happy 101st post! Enjoy!

Rascal's Journal
March 27, 2006
You know that feeling? When you know something is about to come true. When you can taste the answer to the problem on the tip of your tongue. That is how I felt about that Dogpalooza victory. My dreams were fulfilled. At the first Dogpalooza, hard, icy, justice had been served on a steamy platter with a side helping of... victory. I had been told I was not big enough, that I was not strong enough. But now, those days were over. I was the king on top of my own personal mountain.

Yet, I caught myself writing the speech... of my retirement from the world of tug-of-war. Maybe, somewhere, distantly, I thought that was it. That was all I was ever going to achieve. I guess that is basic instinct. You do whatever it takes to stay on top of the heap. But I was not basic anything. I would never be basic. So, as the ink dried on the half- finished speech, I made up my mind. Anything to keep me competing was good. After all, my dynasty, my reign, was just beginning. Anything and everything was possible for me. Welcome to the world of Rascal....

South Park "Not Funny" Review

Good night, amateur trolls that trolled a troll and trolled themselves into a troll, brothers. With one episode to go in the season, South Park has remained consistently funny and on-point with their humor, though I worry about how their going to wrap all of this up. There are a good six to seven ongoing storylines right now, and only one episode to finish off a few of them. There was no clear focus this week, but I'll start where the episode ended, with Gerald's troll-based storyline. It's pretty satisfying to see the Troll Hunter's massive revelation; that he is, in fact, just another troll, bent on world destruction. Even Gerald couldn't find the humor in his master plan, as the Troll Hunter is truly in a league of his own. With the world on the brink of war, the trolling has truly begun, as the Troll Hunter went to work on his own employees and the other trolls, though why they had to be naked for that is beyond me. Kyle is always a sucker for saving the ...

Also, it's the debut of one of SmackDown's newest tag teams, The Revival, as they face Raw's Golden Truth. Universe Mode Main Event December 14th, 2016 Location: Greensboro, NC The Revival vs Golden Truth Goldust and R-Truth are talented veterans, but it was Dash Wilder and Scott Dawson that controlled this match. They looked very impressive in their debut, using a slow pace to pick apart the Bizzare One, before finishing him off with a Shatter Machine to pick up a big debut win. Winners: The Revival Rich Swann vs Drew Gulak- Cruiserweight Classic Group B Match This was the classic match up between high flying and technical brilliance, and it was Gulak's slower style that controlled this match. Swann got in his offense whenever he could, hit...
