3461	Article	kidcoffee	Man this brings me back. I totally had those wrist racers too. Loved mine to death. As for the confederate flag I had no idea there was any stigma attached to it at all as a kid. Heck I used to think it made the regular flag seem boring.		Mar 17, 2016
3460	Article	Mr Magic	Neville looks a little too big to be a high-flying wrestler. He does have a few high-flying moves, but I don't think he's earned the name "The Man That Gravity Forgot"	My Favorite WrestleMania Matches of All Time	Mar 17, 2016
3459	Article	mickyarber	@pikachulover you're exactly right. They were both fantastic IN RING story tellers. They knew how to read and respond to an audience. And another thing they had in common with all of the other one on one matchups on my list....they were well defined characters. You knew what there motivations were, you knew who THEY were. You cared about one or the other or both for a reason. That is sorely lacking in the product of today. Just as examples off my head....why should I care about Neville? He does some flashy moves, but what are his motivations? Who is he? Other than him being a wrestler with a few flashy moves, what is there about him that I should be able to relate to? There is not any time given anymore to character depth and development.	My Favorite WrestleMania Matches of All Time	Mar 16, 2016
3458	Article	pikachulover	The thing about the Flair vs HBK match was that they made it work because they are both good story tellers in the ring.	My Favorite WrestleMania Matches of All Time	Mar 16, 2016
3457	Article	pikachulover	I had some neighbors who would try to prank call me. I remember once they told me they had "Kimberly from the Power Rangers" on the phone. She didn't sound like Kimberly. She sounded like somebody with a cold. Then they said it was just my neighbor's friend who I didn't know named Kimberly who owned cheap inline skates. Which my neighbor just threw in there into the conversation.	Old School Phones: Mystery Callers	Mar 16, 2016
3456	Article	Mr Magic	Growing up is a possible factor. I was about 21 when I was starting to lose interest. It's not just growing up, though. Cruiserweights, the smaller wrestlers, usually have some dazzling moves, but not so much now.	My Favorite WrestleMania Matches of All Time	Mar 16, 2016
3455	Article	mickyarber	@Crow I too think the excitement has died down. But I wonder sometimes if it just seems that way because we are grown up now. My youngest daughter is a fan, and she is really excited about Wrestlemania coming up. Reminds me of me at that age. But as for me, I could take it or leave it these days.

3454	Article	Mr Magic	Hogan and Warrior is definitely a key match. One for the ages. Good call. The excitement for WM has died now. It's been treated like some common event. It really bothers me.	My Favorite WrestleMania Matches of All Time	Mar 16, 2016
3453	Article	Vaporman87	I definitely remember the Steamboat vs. Savage and Hogan vs. Warrior matches. Man, those were true classics. I don't think we'll ever see the enthusiasm for events like these classic matches in the future. People are more cynical, and less amused by "pretend" bloodsport. They want the real deal (MMA and such). Me, I prefer to know that nobody is actually TRYING to hurt each other, and the drama that comes with the show makes it more enjoyable. But I just think today's audience and the audience of the future won't be as engaged or entertained.	My Favorite WrestleMania Matches of All Time	Mar 16, 2016
3452	Article	Vaporman87	You would think that with today's technology, one could not be fooled by a prank call (at least not by the number and ID you see). But you would be wrong. Technology has also provided NEW ways to fool people on the phone. Take, for example, PrankDial. At PrankDial, one can type in ANY phone number they choose to be the "calling from" number, select a pre-recorded prank message set, and then listen to the response after it is recorded and saved to the site. The pre-recorded message actually responds (or doesn't respond) based on replies from the person being called. So if no response if given, the message may say "Are you still there?" "Hellooo???" But if responses are given, then the message follows it's normal pattern, and it usually results in hilarious responses.	Old School Phones: Mystery Callers	Mar 16, 2016
