Sorting it out

[Joel Johnson @JoelJohnsonTV]

I think this week, even this whole year has proved Jon Moxley is the wrestler of the year and the most important guy in AEW.

[Joel Johnson @JoelJohnsonTV]

The man loves pro wrestling and loves his performers. This is just so sad.

[Michael Burry Stock Tracker ♟ @burrytracker]

Breaking: Michael Burry says OpenAI and Anthropic are faking the AI warnings due to slow growth ahead of IPOs

Below are his reasonings:
1. LLMs are not AI and won't be AGI. There is nothing AI to slow down.

2. Competition is coming up fast, slowing benefits incumbents.

3. IPOs need hype & puffery; "we are so awesome it could become dangerous" is hype & puffery

4. Cover for real uncontrollable slowing growth as IPOs look to be pushed out

This was actually a great bit of broadcasting in main event yesterday.

For announcers - after a big moment silence is your friend. Allow the gravity of the moment to sink in and let the crowd take the story.

In tight for the One Winged Angel + kickout w/Ospreay+Omega in the center of the shot.....silence...pause....pull back to wide shot on the jib and let the crowd carry the moment.

Not smothering the moment with sound was the right call, allowing it to breathe.

Perfect.

My favorite moment in the last 20 years as a Flames fan. Miss Johnny.

It should be!

[Peter Klein @primetimeklein]

With the news, I’m realizing now that my last segment ever on 960 is Wild Card Wednesday (on a Thursday) where I made a case for Pro Wrestling to be in the Olympics. So, a very fitting send off if I do say so myself.

[Adam Wylde @AdamWylde]

230+ people in Canadian news & sports media lost their jobs today. Six radio stations, gone

These are critical minds who report on current events, and hold people in power responsible for their actions.

No hyperbole - it's a huge concern for Canada that this keeps happening.

[Ryan Pike @RyanNPike]

I'm absolutely gutted. Not only did 960 mean so much to sports fans in this market, but so many amazing people made that connection with the fans possible over the years. Thinking of a lot of amazing friends and colleagues today.

[Joel Johnson @JoelJohnsonTV]

What a crap tweet. Hard working people lost theirs jobs. No one in Calgary was dancing when the TSN in Edmonton lost theirs jobs.

Be better.

[Dave Meltzer @davemeltzerWON]

Based on most accounts, he was a key person, but now we have Vince McMahon, Jim Cornette (who actually came up with the finish), Levesque, Shawn and Russo all taking credit. He does leave out the part of the conversation where Bret would lose to Shawn in any arena if Shawn lost in Montreal and Bret was staying for another month to do it including TV tapings, MSG and one more PPV show. That's the part of the story the anti-Hart side aways leaves out.

[Greg Wyshynski @wyshynski]

Mike Commodore on @JasonGregor's show:

“Mike Babcock’s not an idiot. Connor and Leon are going to get treated like gold. It’s the 3rd and 4th liners, the 5-7 defensemen, the rookies, the arena staff, it’s people like that who are going to be abused.”

[Joel Johnson @JoelJohnsonTV]

Greatest match ever.

[Drainmaker @TheDrainmaker]

Happy 8th anniversary of Kenny Omega becoming the IWGP Heavyweight Champion by beating Kazuchika Okada at Dominion 2018 in 2 Out of 3 Falls!

The 4th bout in their quadrilogy. The greatest wrestling match to ever happen.

A ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ classic.

Buying and controlling media platforms.

Firing commentators.

Canceling shows.

These aren’t coincidences.

It’s coordinated. And it’s dangerous.

The @GOP does not believe in free speech.

They are censoring you in real time.

That sucks! It felt like it reignited my love for Dexter

Was there live. The Dome was electric that night. One of my favorite live memories. #Flames

[Robert Munnich @Robert_Munnich]

My Favourite #Flames Goals

The Flames were down 4-2 and 5-3 in this game. Sean Monahan, Rasmus Andersson and the overtime hero Johnny Gaudreau led the comeback.

The Saddledome was rocking on this night.

Actor Jeff Daniels on Donald Trump’s 2nd term: “We’ve lost decency. We’ve lost civility. We’ve lost respect for the rule of law. We’ve normalized verbal abuse. We’ve normalized bullying. Out the window goes character, integrity. We’re supposed to elect the best of us, not the worst of us. He’s everything that’s wrong with not just America but being a human being.”
