Title: June 14!
Description: What the World is Watching


eStragand - May 30, 2007 04:28 PM (GMT)
Many are the days that have numbered and lingered in recent weeks without relevance or any importance above that which they normally contain. But now, as we look to the imminent future, we see a vantage point on the horizon that approaches with promise, enlightenment and all-around prominence. For it is on this soon-arriving day, that the normals know as "Flag Day", that the Superstars of DWB shall ascend and scale to new heights and penultimate challenges.







In other words, I'm going to launch our site on June 14 (a Thursday).

Took this out of the "Members Only" area so we can announce it to the WORLD.

If you've expressed interest in writing a column, please have at least one page submitted to me by June 13 at "admin--at---DaWrestlingSite--dot-- com". June 13's not a "deadline"...more of a "guideline". If you can't make it, don't worry. You're still in the club.

I have to say that although I don't have time to really do any writing for the site, I think E is doing a great job with all of this. Keep up the good work!!!!!

I wish everyone the best with this, oh, and I might have an "in" if you guys were interested on getting FREE WWE DVD's (these would NOT be DVD-r's they would be the real deal, straight from a company) for review. When everything is up and running and there are reviews up on the site I can give whoever would do these the lowdown.

I'd be up for it. I'd start reviewing DVD's if I could get my hands on some. As for right now, I have absolutely no extra cash, and therefore get no DVD's.

I'll have several reviews read to go for the launch. Just got in a few months worth of old Mid- Atlantic TV show, a couple months of Georgia, Starrcade 83, and a few more. That plus 3-4 music reviews I've got waiting to go.

Send 'em along now. I was mulling over whether or not to ax the "music" category. So content is good.

Did you guys still want to do "staff blogs"? If not, I'll just put up kayfabed bios of the "DWS Superstars".

SamoaRowe - May 31, 2007 03:40 PM (GMT)
Ah jeez, if I was getting free DVDs for review, I'd definitely do it.

Alright, I'll get 'em to you in the next day or two. Had a show last night and a studio session tonight, but I'm free tomorrow night to clean them up and get them to you. Is there any kind of feed you can do on the music section like you did with sports? It may be weird to just have my reviews up there.

eStragand - May 31, 2007 04:01 PM (GMT)
There's a general "entertainment" feed...but it has shit like celebrity gossip, movie premieres and Nielsen ratings.

I could finish off my "all-Time Nifty Tunes" tape series of shitty 80's metal, but those don't seem too popular.

Scrooge McSuck - May 31, 2007 04:20 PM (GMT)
I'm working on a review now that'll be done by days end, but I think I could squeeze off a few exclusively for the launch.

Scrooge McSuck - May 31, 2007 09:27 PM (GMT)
OOOH! BLOGS! How does it work? :P

eStragand - May 31, 2007 09:36 PM (GMT)
I'd recommend signing up for blogger.com. Then I'll link it in.

If you'd rather your blog be published ON the site itself, let me know and I'll give you instructions on how to use blogger to do so.

A lover of fine pasty? Am I supposed to be a strip joint junkie?

Oh my..the title "Scrooge's playground" just brings up ALL sorts of kiddie jokes...

Scrooge McSuck - May 31, 2007 10:48 PM (GMT)
...

HEY! I didn't notice that. Oh well, I'll take it in the ass for that one.

That's not the only thing you'll take it in the ass for

eStragand - May 31, 2007 11:04 PM (GMT)
Tits! I love IFRAME:

http://www.dawrestlingsite.com/blogs/scrooge/

If I can offer one guideline, it's Keep it Skinny. Be careful about posting long URLs or really long (over 600 pixels) images on all blogs.

After further review--- forget about hosting blogs on the site. Use the "free blogger hosting" option under "settings --> publishing".

Scrooge McSuck - May 31, 2007 11:10 PM (GMT)
I never post pictures of such large stature! :D

eStragand - May 31, 2007 11:15 PM (GMT)
I'd also recommend removing the "dashboard" stripe on your blogs. Sort of feeds an audience into Blogger.com instead of our site.

Look for "hide dashboard" or something to that effect under "Template".

Scrooge McSuck - May 31, 2007 11:30 PM (GMT)
Hmm... looking around and I don't see any choice for disabling it. I'll keep looking, but for now, courage.

BTW, if I have the time, I can do little recaps of classic baseball games on MLB.com's subscription thing, if that would be something anyone would care for.

eStragand - May 31, 2007 11:37 PM (GMT)
Yeah. Do that.

As long as it's not GAME 7 of the 1992 NLCS.

Never do that.

Ever.

Scrooge McSuck - May 31, 2007 11:39 PM (GMT)
Well, if it's a historic game... :D

I'll probably be able to do a game per 2 week, since my attention is devoted mostly to "classic" wrestling and the fact I don't want to burn out the golden goose. I can also do a token DVD and classic video game review, but in those cases I'm not making any promises.

I'm with E on this one.

Do it and I'll have to cut a muhfucka.

Yay! Rowe, rowe, rowe your boat to Rowe's Island:

http://www.dawrestlingsite.com/blogs/samoarowe/

Just so's ya' know, your blogs will be accessible at both URL's. The dWs URL will have the site's frame around it, though.

Scrooge McSuck - June 1, 2007 08:30 PM (GMT)
NEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERD!

add me! add me!

eStragand - June 1, 2007 08:55 PM (GMT)
Yay!

http://www.dawrestlingsite.com/blogs/whitemilesdavis/

So why'd ya go with dawrestlingboard prefix, instead of whitemilesdavis.? Makes no difference, just wonderin'.

whitemilesdavis - June 1, 2007 09:04 PM (GMT)
It's an old blog I played with two years ago. May as well recycle!

eStragand - June 5, 2007 06:00 PM (GMT)
The countdown is on, daddy!

http://www.dawrestlingsite.com/

Scrooge McSuck - June 5, 2007 06:55 PM (GMT)
We demand a Kane version before the countdown ends.

eStragand - June 5, 2007 07:14 PM (GMT)
That idea has already been submitted and approved by the Championship Committee!

I was thinking about that angle from last year, where Kane would freak out whenever someone said the date of his movie. That was actually my idea for the title of this thread... but it lost something in presentation.

Scrooge McSuck - June 5, 2007 07:29 PM (GMT)
Logic?

eStragand - June 6, 2007 04:24 PM (GMT)
The countdown ...continues! Ohhhhh yes.

SamoaRowe - June 6, 2007 07:31 PM (GMT)
:D

I should really update my blog.

whitemilesdavis - June 6, 2007 07:54 PM (GMT)
Mine is from '05.

eStragand - June 6, 2007 08:43 PM (GMT)
I created a MySpace dWs/dWb profile to help with marketing and generating new members/readers. There are a lot of wrestling geeks on there, so a MySpace page can satisfy any readers who need to post pictures of shirtless men or type "OMG! Malina is sooooo hot".

I'll moderate the comments, so it won't get too out of hand.

So if you MySpace fellers get a message saying something like "Da' Wants to be Your Friend", it's me. You'll be added to the list of "dWs Superstars".

Not very creative on the naming.
