Sometimes in this business, I feel like the guy that's riding in the car with someone that's got a lot of crack on them, and we get pulled over by the State Troopers. You and me both buddy.

I do have to say, I did catch an episode when I was in the States and I did enjoy it. It reminds me of a show we have in the UK called Loose Women which really is a guilty pleasure. But I just don't like Rosie as a host, nothing to do with the whole angle and stuff, it's just she's caused more harm than good IMO. I think it's safe to say that the show hasn't been the same since the deparcher of Meredith Vieira, but it still doesn't make it any less entertaining. Rosie does/did seem better fit for her own talk show, as it was a years ago. Even when she was going ga-ga for Tom Cruise (before he went crazy), that was fun stuff. I'm different...I take the whole ultra-macho notion that The View and Rosie are evil as a rule. Both always annoyed me, and moreso with Rosie when my uncle's late brother told me about seeing her at some club and her being nasty to people. And there's the little matter of her supposedly bullying the staff of her late magazine to back that up. And now she's gone off her rocker and thinks she's God and forces her opinions and her sexuality down people's throats. OK it's good to be proud of who you are and what you think, but there are others who have done it and do it in a much less obnoxious fashion and don't feel the need to strictly wear their label 24/7. In my eyes, Rosie did EXACTLY two things of some merit: 1) She gave Caroline Rhea a chance (sue me, I liked Caroline) 2) She rid us of Star Jones

If she ignores it, good for her. But more than likely, she'll fire back...and she'll attack all of us fans as "braindead, mysogynistic slobs" in the process. NO! She will write one of her mono-alphanumeric-symbol-laden poems about it on her blog. "Wrestling fans u r dumb, Vince can't u c u r not funny..." BTW I am going to write to Ask Rosie and force the matter as to whether or not she saw the "match," just for sh*t and giggles...

I was watching the entire debacle thinking one thing... "Please let this be the setup for Stone Cold's comeback tonight."
And when it wasn't, and I watched in all it's terrible glory, I don't know if I was more ashamed at Vince for airing it or myself for watching all of it.

Please, I don't need to see an aged Austin who can't wrestle a full match anymore back in the limelight, burying younger guys who can't get one over him because he can't wrestle.

But I have a sinking feeling it would end up turning into the scenario I mentioned. Then Austin walks out cause he doesn't want to job to Donald/Ace.

My friend you have just come up with one of the greatest analogies ever. I have nevr laughed harder at anything on this board. The funniest yet saddest part is that it's entirely true.

Seriously...would you? <Smark mode on> Well he's from ROH so he should go over everyone on the WWE roster, dammit! </smark mode off> Don't mind me I like having a go at Austin (mostly cause it pisses off my one friend ;-)) Now, before I dig this hole deeper, well I went and did it...yes, I filled out an "Ask Ro" question form asking what she thought of Raw if she knew...

I guess there was more fueding between Rosey and Donald in recent days, it was covered by a few morning shows. Though the whole match wasnt even talked about at all, NBC's and Vince's big match failed to spark interest, and kinda was like a SNL skit or a Jay Leno monologue, where it made fun of the fued, but it's not gonna make it to gonna be big deal to talk about. Where if people knew that NBC and Donald were apart of this, I'm sure more people would be talking. Kinda like the K-Fed match being on New Years Day, most of the morning shows were still on break, though K-Fed kinda fell as a celeb by the time the match took place.

Check it out: www.rosie.com/blog/sections/ask-ro/ She basically gives four-word-or-less answers to everything. Nonetheless, I say we all go on a cyber field trip and bombard her mailbox with questions about Raw. (Link's closed for now to get the question form...but keep checking!)

WWE made a bad decision trying to mock her, because all she has to do is show a clip or a photo of Vince with Trish barking like a dog to ridicule the WWE's management. In a battle of wits and arguments between Rosie O'Donnell and WWE Creative, Rosie owns them.

She's like a robot or computer. Just read her reactions out loud in a robotic voice, it's hilarious. Heart writes: Why are you so loud-mouthed? I have a daughter and would be ashamed if I acted this way in public like you do. Act like a mother and a female and represent. i hope ur daughter watches tv so she can see strong women with loud voices and become one Pam writes: I hope u and BW do not let DT cause a split in your relationship. That is what men do!!! If he does, he wins!! I believe BW truly cares for u. I hope y also feel that. He is a jerk. smart girl pam nancy writes: You would not quit the view over DT, would you? he has no power here off before someone drops a house on him and his ego
