Ode to Josh Beckett

It's my day off
I think I'll do some golfing
No matter I just missed a start
Make $17 mil
How dare you try and judge me?
I didn't even rent a car

Starts
Missing Starts
Playing Golf
Screwing Me
Screwing You
Sweet Missing Time
Off days never felt so good (so good, so good)
I feel inclined
Blow up Bobby Valentine

The Josh Beckett controversy continues. After missing a start and playing golf on an off day, Beckett got hammered by the Cleveland Indians in first start back in the rotation.

Since Neil Diamond's Sweet Caroline is traditionally sung by Red Sox fans during the 8th inning, ESPN's Colin Cowherd came up with the above song parody. 

AIW JT Lightning Invitational Tournament

Results from this weekend's Absolute Intense Wrestling's "JT Lightning Invitational Tournament" event at Turner Hall in Cleveland Ohio - all AIW wrestling blog posts. Interview and Recap Show.

The big event of the weekend was a 24-man tournament. Night one included 12 opening round matches in the tournament and night two saw the quarter-final, semi-final, and final rounds of the tournament.

The winner of the tournament is not only 2012 JLIT Champion but also becomes AIW Absolute Champion. Before the event, it was announced that current champion Shiima Xion was stripped of the title (video below).

Night One

Non-tournament match:
  1. Preshow: The Submission Squad (Gary Jay, Evan Gelistico & Pierre Abernathy) defeated Team Michigan (Maserati Rick, KJ Crush & Jack Verville) in a Beyond Wrestling Showcase match when Gelistico pinned Rick with a small package.
1st round tournament matches:
  1. Louis Lyndon defeated Mat Fitchett via cross arm breaker submission.

  2. Bobby Beverly beat Kodama (replacing Dave Crist) after hitting a superkick and a modified EVO.
