Anyone who has followed wrestling in the past ten years has heard of and probably watched Eddie Guerrero. For those of you that don't know, Eddie was found dead in his hotel room this past Sunday morning (November 13). The news was quite shocking to me even though I wasn't necessarily a fan of Eddie. Initial results of the autopsy indicate heart failure. It was widely known that Eddie was a long time abuser of drugs and alcohol. However, he had just celebrated his fourth year of sobriety. The abuse of drugs and alcohol weakened his heart. Eddie was a workout fiend and this is believed to have caused more problems. The damage to his heart just couldn't take the intense physical strain he put on his body every day.

Watching the tribute show Monday night on RAW was one of the toughest things I've ever done. Wrestlers like HHH, Batista and Benoit, shed their tough guy attitudes and let their real emotions show. It's so hard to watch these guys crying. Eddie's closest friends were on the verge of a breakdown. People in the audience were sobbing, many of them probably finding out only when they got to the arena that night. Even sitting here writing this and thinking about the show, I get a lump in my throat. Eddie was never one of my favorites, but he was truly a gifted individual. He was an entertainer and an athlete that gave the WWE a different kind of flair.

Friday night there is another tribute on Smackdown. If you are a wrestling fan, watch it. Yes, it will tug on your heart strings really hard, but at the same time it's amazing to see the wrestling community come together in tragedy. Would we see this same thing happen in any other community?

The annoying alarm clock of the football season has waken the Crimson Tide faithful from their National Championship dreams. It was a very nice dream while it lasted. Although a National Championship is out of the question, an SEC championship is still on the horizon. First and foremost, Alabama must beat Auburn. After that it's up to Ole Miss and Arkansas to try and tame the Tigers. A loss by LSU to either team and an Alabama win at Auburn, puts Alabama in Atlanta after Thanksgiving.

According to Erika, students were acting like somebody died on campus today. I have to admit I was extremely bummed Sunday, but I got over it. If the team dwells on the loss as much as the fans, there is no way they will win Saturday. I'm ready for the game. It's Auburn. There's no better reason to get psyched (unless we were playing Tennessee again).

How in the world can the voters for NL Manager of the Year vote for Bobby Cox or Tony La Russa? Why is Phil Garner not the winner? Phil Garner not only led his team from a 15-30 record to the playoffs, but he also led them to the World Series. What's wrong with this picture? With the Cardinals rocketing start, of course it was near impossible to overcome the deficit in the NL Central. But, the Astros were the best team in the National League. I understand that Bobby Cox battled team injuries to lead Atlanta to yet another NL east title. And once again Atlanta was bounced after the first round by the Astros. I just don't see how there can be a better manager to take a dismal team in May and bring them to the World Series. How ridiculous.

Hard to believe this site has been running for almost two years now. I don't know how many people visit this outside of friends and family (if even they visit), but I do this out of love, hoping for perhaps some recognition and with a major helping of luck I might even get paid to do something as crazy as writing reviews. I doubt that will ever happen, but there's always a chance if someone sees my site.

Speaking of reviews, the review for Doom awaits your greedy little eyes. Click over to Now Playing to see what I thought about the movie.
