    The latest writethru isn't leaving very much wiggle room. Seems like you'd want to be careful about posting the potential equivalent, body-count-wise, of O.J. in your sidesaddle.

    I really don't know what to think of all this. The thought of Benoit actually killing is wife and kid seems so irrational to think, especially of all the comments of how 'great' and 'respectful' of a man he was during his tenure on earth.

    Honestly, I don't even know what to think. Probably not, but the wrestling mark in me is saying a humble classact like Benoit would never do such a thing.

    One of the detectives said that when the facts come out, it's going to be a little "bizarre." So god only knows what this is going to end up looking like. I probably wouldn't put a picture of him in my sidesig (though I know the people here that did it did so earlier in the day, when this stuff wasn't out there), but it's not a slam dunk ... yet.

    Nothing's been proven right now, so it'll stay. If anything does come up, I'll change it.

    But wouldn't they have said he wasn't responsible as to clear up a few things right away?

    Happened to flip on RAW tonight, mainly to see what kind of shit they were doing with the preposterous Vince is dead-angle. Saw this, looked at roomie as John Cena cried his heart out and said "Wouldn't it be some shit if this was a murder-suicide while on some kind of 'Roid rage?"

    I really didn't want to be right, if only for the sake of wife and child.

    That's funny. Having my creds questioned by an admitted fanboy of sports and non-sports alike.

    I'll compare my creds to yours any day of the week. That lede is fine, and the only reason you don't see it is because someone you believe to be "a humble class act" from what you've seen on TV is involved.

    Blow it out your ass, fanboy.

    Beej, I thought it was a crappy lede, too.

    It's about the death of three people, not about the make believe storylines on television that most people could give a shit about.
