Why You Like Wrestling?
If you break down wrestling into it's simplest form wrestling is broken down into two catagories.... Wrestling matches & Storylines...

If you were to believe that Wrestling matches & Storylines makes up 100% of all of the wrestling industry, which do you find more important, and what percentage would you give to each part of wrestling....

For example to me wrestling goes like this:

30% of my intrest goes into actual wrestling matches

where as 70% of my intest goes into the storylines...

Basically what I'd like to know is how does it break down with all of you?

If there was a topic like this up the other day I'm sorry I started this thread... Just show me where the old topic was and then the mods can delete this. I've been patroling the boards pretty regular the past few days and I haven't seen it. Maybe I just passed it by...

Call it a cop out if you want. But without the sports aspect, it's just a soap opera. Without the entertainment aspect, it's at best something like shoot fighting, or at worst another phony "sport."

Both are important to the end result product.

We're all aware that you need both, I'm just asking what you like more. If it's too close to call then just say 50-50. Don't tell us what we already know.

I don't either.

Now, is it actually necessary to explain that it's possible to have an opinion that does not break down into an easy formula of percentages?

TRANSLATION: Are you being intentionally dense, or do you need it broken downfor you?

Just because people call you on your foibles doesn't mean you have to call them stupid.

I was asking a simple questions and I wanted a simple answer. You always find the need to give answers to questions no one asked or give a answer that is on the fence.

I just wanted a simple percentage answer from anyone that wanted to give it. If you didn't want to give a percentage answer the why even post on this thread? Do you have an outstanding need to make others feel as though there questions, answers, and opinions are worthless?

The question was not simple, only the idiot who asked it.

The question, why do you watch wrestling, how you break it down, doesn't automatically mean a simple answer. If you can't handle that, you really need to get off the internet before people shallening your simple notions makes your thick skull explode.

I like 'Pro Wrestling' because it's unique and one of the greatest forms of entertainment there is.

as for your ... other... question

50-50- Storylines make you watch, but good wrestling keeps you on your seat

Personally for the TV shows, the storylines keep me interested. I can survive on like one *** match a month w/o really complaining.

But come PPV time, it's all about the wrestling. If they suck, I don't give a rat's ass how many run-in, swerves, debuts, etc. there are.

You got a knack for calling people stupid and then talking around your reasons why you say the nonsense you do. Perhaps your talking in circles works with others, but not with me. Your a smart guy, you just have a bad habit of trying too hard to sound smart. Your smart, you don't have to try so hard. However, if you don't think you can break answers down into a simple form, then your not all that bright anyway.

Also, you have this notion that I'm angry, and you seem to think that when people crap on my idea that I take it to heart. I really don't I'm quite calm. The only reason I continue to get some of these notions through to you is I respect you, and I really do think your a smart guy. Your probably smarter then me. However, you have a lot to learn about being civil.

60 wrestling and 40 storyline... I enjoy the wrestling aspect alot, if it's a great match, or a few great matches, but a shitty storyline, IMO, the matches can save the whole storyline... Storylines are important though, for obvious reasons...

I would say the wrestling
I think I enjoy the storylines more, but I watch more of the wrestling.

What I mean is that I watch the PPV's (either pre-recorded ie, over the past few months, i've watched every PPV of 2003, '02, '01, '00 and 8 of the 12 '99...but i dont watch raw all that reguarly

OK, I'll be honest, I read it as 51.1%, but 49.9999 (however many there were)% + 50.1111 (however many there were)%, will still make 100.1111 (however many there'll be)%

Um, no it won't, it will be 100.

If it was 50 + 50.11111...etc. then yes it would be 100.1111...

It's 100.1111 (etc) the way he put it.
If it was put 49.9999999999999999999999 + 50.0000000000000000000001
that'd be 100.

So what's 50 + 50.1111111 then?

Surely it can't be the same as 49.9999999 + 50.1111111 because the 49.9999999 has gone up 1?

The diference between 49.9999999 and 50 is 0.0000001

It's negliable, but I won't deny it's there.

It's too late to explain right now to be honest, maybe tomorrow.
