Ouch.  When it comes to the 360, I had a very poor week this time around, which is not good considering we’re a few weeks away from the halfway point.  As I think back I don’t even know where the week has gone – just one of those weeks that fly by.  I distinctly remember checking with my wife too to make sure we didn’t have any plans Sunday so I could spend the day just playing the 360, yet I didn’t end up playing it at all, resorting to spending most of the day in the backyard getting sunburnt.

Is it wrong that I hope this week we get hit with tons of rain and snow, so I have an excuse to sit on my ass and play some motherfucking Xbox??? [Continue...]

# 19. Dusty Rhodes

207 points (12 out of 43 lists)
Highest Rating: daycru and Osiris at #2

Real Name: Virgil Riley Runnels Jr.
(In)Famous Gimmicks: The Midnight Rider

Dusty Rhodes has been in the wrestling industry for 40 years now, and is easily one of the most influential entertainers in history.

All you have to do is look at a picture of Dusty and realize he isn’t your prototypical wrestler. He is short, fat, and pudgy. There are no 24-inch pythons, chiselled abs, or anything else you’d see in a regular wrestler. And because of this, Dusty Rhodes is special. [Continue...]

The Quest: At least 500 gamerscore points in every game I own.

Well it’s been 3 weeks since I last checked in, as my XBox 360 decided to do the thing I’ve been dreading since I bought the fucking thing – it broke!  And even worse – it wasn’t the RROD, so I wasn’t able to join the RROD club just yet.  For the last few weeks every disc I put in would make this very weird noise, almost a grinding noise.  It basically scared the shit out of me every time the 360 read a disc, and so the disc tray eventually died, with it opening up every time I closed it.

The worst thing was when I got the infamous coffin to send back the 360.  It arrived via Purolator, alongside another package – Grand Theft Auto IV.  Kind of like having sex with the most beautiful woman in the world(Isla Fisher) as she repeatedly stabs you in the throat.  Thankfully Canada is AWESOME, so I managed to get it back within a week.

So with that, let’s see what I’ve been doing in the 20th week of the challenge…. [Continue...]

Welcome to the second monthly UFC Rankings on No Pants Provided.

Pretty simple format, NPP Forum members are invited to vote for their Top 5 Fighters in each UFC weight class. Fighters will then be awarded points relating to their votes (ie 1st place receives 5 points, 2nd 4 points etc). The only rules were that a fighter had to have fought in the UFC in the past 12 months.

A big thank you to everyone who voted and now on with the rankings. Last month’s rankings are in brackets.

# 20. Jake Roberts

189 points (14 out of 43 lists)
Highest Rating: Osiris at #3

Real Name: Aurelian Smith Jr.
(In)Famous Gimmicks: El Diablo

It is simply a shame that in a world when guys win gold for proving nothing in this industry, Jake Roberts has never held a major wrestling title. Despite this, he is easily one of the greatest and most influential wrestlers to ever grace the squared-circle. [Continue...]
