Shane Douglas Was Smart

Irregardless of what you think of former Pittsburgh-area wrestler Shane Douglas, you gotta admit that dude's lexicon is like a nucular war on Pennsylvania's edumacation system.

And now I'll quit using fake words.

I dug up some old video of the former ECW Heavyweight Champion and New Brighton native (probably a neighbor of Terry Francona) dissing wrestler Terry Funk in some post-fight interview.

What was that, Shane? What was Funk's knee smash into? Obliteratitry?

And thanks for dominating that Steelers hat while you're making up words. Its not like the rest of the country already has some bias against the region as dumb, hick country. Keep proliferating the ignorance, man.

Yeah

Go Steelers! Black & Golddust says so.

Thumbwrestlers Rule

Indulge me on this slow Friday. I mean, come on...its a leap year/day, for cryin' out loud.

I came across Mental_Floss' WWF Superstars Quiz and started thinking about Thumbwrestlers. There's no adequate video of these amazing toys on the Youtubes, but I found this site. They actually had the commercial to download, so I embedded it using the awful fantastic Blogger video embedder.

I know for a fact I had Big John Studd and Hillbilly Jim. Nothing sick about sticking your thumb into a hole just above a rubber wrestler's ass.

Good times, the '80s.
