NFL franchise tags: who gets them
NEW YORK While the league and union play a game of chicken over a new collective bargaining agreement, the 32 teams also are playing tag.
As in applying franchise tags to key players.
It's another contentious issue for both sides, with the owners saying they have the right to franchise players before the CBA runs out March 3, and the NFLPA claiming with no agreement for the 2011 season, how can anybody be franchised? While the merits are debated, an impressive group of stars, including Peyton Manning and Michael Vick, will have been tagged by Feb. 24.
By applying the exclusive franchise tag, a team must pay the player the average of the top five salaries at his position. Manning, naturally, would get such a big paycheck anyway - he's almost certainly headed for the most lucrative deal in NFL history at around $23 million should he remain Indianapolis' franchise player.
More likely, the Colts will reach a long-term deal with the four-time MVP that probably will be his final NFL contract.
Baltimore's Haloti Ngata, the NFL's best nose tackle, will get around $12 million - if the tags stick.
Barring a new CBA in the next two weeks, the union will continue to fight on this issue, even though some of its members will collect a windfall from being tagged.
San Diego's Vincent Jackson, for example, is in line for a phenomenal payday, even if he isn't one of the league's top five wide receivers. Certainly, Jackson had to go through some distressing maneuvering to get to this point, including a seven-game holdout and three-game team suspension in 2010. But his salary for 2011, assuming there is a season, will go from around $300,000 to a projected $11 million.
Jackson also could wind up elsewhere. Along with Ngata, Jets linebacker David Harris, Chiefs linebacker Tamba Hali, and Patriots guard Logan Mankins, Jackson received a non-exclusive tag. They can negotiate with other teams, with compensation for signing them two first-round draft picks.
That's a steep price, although a game-changer such as Ngata might be worth it. Then again, the Ravens almost certainly would match any offer, particularly if it came from an AFC team like the Jets, Colts or Chargers, all of whom could become even more of a Super Bowl threat with Ngata anchoring the defense.
A number of teams aren't expected to use the franchise tag, including the Bears and Lions, who have said as much. Others unlikely to franchise a player are teams with no pending free agents worth the kind of money it would cost: the Cardinals, Bills, Bengals, Browns, Texans, Dolphins, Saints, Rams, 49ers and Seahawks.
At the other extreme, Jacksonville tight end Marcedes Lewis is worth keeping. So are Steelers linebacker LaMarr Woodley and Panthers running back DeAngelo Williams or center Ryan Kalil.
Tampa Bay must choose between linebacker Barrett Ruud and guard Davin Joseph. Minnesota could tag Sidney Rice, who comes off an injury-plagued season, or linebacker Chad Greenway.
Asked whether the CBA uncertainty might factor into the decision, Vikings player personnel vice president Rick Spielman said, "Potentially it can because of the restrictions you have with getting some extensions done on these guys. It puts you in a bind a little bit."

Slow Cooker Kung Pao Chicken Recipe
- Posted on
- 13 Comments
When this blog first started over three years ago, only three of the sisters were really contributing to the blog. The other three were in college or high school and really didn't understand blogging, let alone even care about it. We finally got them on board and they now contribute recipes and crafts at least once a week, but cooking and crafting isn't their true passion (gasp! Say it ain't so!!).
A couple of months ago we were brainstorming on how to tie in their passions of fashion and style on a budget - and Six Sisters' Style was born. We have been busy designing some fun clothing items (for real women's sizes and styles) that will shortly be for sale (we are so excited!) and a couple of times a week, we will be sharing some of our best beauty and fashion secrets and tips on the style blog.
While our main passion is still everything that goes on here (for me, it's always about the food!), but we are so excited about this new venture and hope you will join us!
You can follow Six Sisters' Style on Instagram, Facebook, and Pinterest.
Now onto the recipe . . . because I know that's the reason you are here.
This recipe couldn't be more simple. If you are feeling adventurous, you could make your own Kung Pao sauce, but the Panda Express bottle that I used was delicious. It did have a little kick, but my kids still ate it!
Slow Cooker Kung Pao Chicken
1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts (frozen or thawed- whatever you have on hand)
1 (18.75 oz) bottle Panda Express Kung Pao sauce
1 red bell pepper, diced
1 green bell pepper, diced
1 bunch green onions, diced
1 (8 oz) can water chestnuts (optional)
1/4 cup peanuts (optional)
Spray crock pot with non-stick cooking spray and place chicken inside. Pour bottle of Kung Pao sauce on top and cook on low for 5-6 hours or high 3-4 hours. For the last 30 minutes of cooking*, turn the slow cooker to high (if it isn't on high already) and add diced bell peppers, water chestnuts, and peanuts.
After finished cooking, remove chicken breasts and cut into bite-sized pieces. Return chicken to slow cooker and stir until chicken is completely covered in sauce.
Serve over white or brown rice.
*You can add the peppers in at the beginning and let them cook all day, but they tend to be pretty soggy. I prefer the peppers to be tender but still have a little crunch to them, which is why I add them at the end.
Makes about 4-5 servings.

It looks deliiiiicious!
How exciting! I am looking forward to the clothing items! Camille, I LOVE your crockpot recipes! They are always so good! Keep up the great work!
Thank you for the nice recipe and congrats.
We had Chinese take-out for Mother's Day and I'm craving more! Looks wonderful. Very exciting news about the clothing line! Can't wait to see what you'll have to offer
Do you add the green onions to the slow cooker when you add the peppers or do you just put them on top when it's done?
Made this for dinner last night and it came out great. I left my chicken breasts whole when serving and used half a white onion instead of green onions and no peanuts. Cooked mine on high for 3hrs. Family loved it!!
I love Kung Pao Chicken and can't wait to try this! I would like to try adding zucchini to it as well. Do you think I would just add at the same time as the peppers? I am hoping it is not too spicy for my kids, who don't like anything spicy.
I made this recipe a few weeks ago and loved it!! However, it's a little spicier than the rest of my family likes. Do you have any suggestions as far as different sauces I could use instead to make it a tad less spicy? Thanks!!

Alive Lyrics - Mya
So Alive
Oh oh oh oh, oh Yeah
Just call my name and I'm already there
You don't need to write it in the sky my ba-by
I can make the stars light up for you I swear
My love's in your forever
So as we dance, all night
What the love going up to the milky way
You'll let me know
Hold tight
I promise, I promise, I'll never leave your side
When you're holding me,
Kissing me, loving me – I can't deny that with you I feel so alive.
sponsored linksThe sweetest melody, in my ear, chemistry, is blowing my mind, with you I feel so alive.
With you I feel so (alive, alive)
With you I feel so alive
You can take a look inside my heart
I'm sure that you will find a picture of us
From a single spot
We'll always shine in the dark
If your hand fits mine perfectly like a glove,
I just hope that nothing comes between and breaks us up
What we share is incredible, but magic comes
So don't stop, doing me right.
With you I feel so alive

Digging the Past! A Celebration of Archeology and Fossils drew hundreds of history lovers, rock hounds, and amateur collectors to the Falls of the Ohio State Park on Saturday.
The event combined two older events — Archeology Day and Earth Discovery Day — to offer a variety of hands-on activities including throwing an atlatl, an ancient weapon used for hunting; digging for artifacts or minerals; crafting a clay pot; or touring the fossil beds.
The events were combined in anticipation of a major overhaul of the Falls of the Ohio Interpretive Center's exhibit space. The center will close November 23 and should reopen in late 2015. Read more.
When the first Europeans entered the Ohio valley, they encountered hundreds of mysterious earthen mounds and enclosures.
According to University of Cincinnati architectural historian John Hancock, a primary reason the ancient American earthworks seemed so mysterious was their vast scale and subtle geometries. That made them fundamentally different from traditional Western ideas of what architecture should look like.
Wanting to learn more about these strange and monumental structures, European-American settlers, soldiers and missionaries often asked local American Indians about them. The answers the Indians provided tell us much about what the historic tribes of the eastern Woodlands thought about the earthworks, but they do not appear to cast much light on their original purpose and meaning. Read more.
CHILLICOTHE, Ohio — The ancient people of the Hopewell culture who built earthwork mounds in Ohio 1,600 to 2,000 years ago continue to give up their secrets.
The latest might be a "woodhenge," a circular enclosure of wooden posts. Imagine Stonehenge, but with timber.
National Park Service archaeologists who are excavating a field at Hopewell Culture National Historical Park near Chillicothe believe they have found evidence of such a wooden-post circle.
It would have been built by the same civilization that constructed the earthwork mounds near Chillicothe, in Heath and Newark, and near Lebanon in southwestern Ohio. Read more.
A geologist studied fossils to confirm that stones used in 19th century Ohio grain mills originated from France. Fossils embedded in these millstones were analyzed to determine that stones known as French buhr were imported from regions near Paris, France, to Ohio in the United States. Dr. Joseph Hannibal, curator of invertebrate paleontology at The Cleveland Museum of Natural History, was lead author on research published in the Society for Sedimentary Geology journal PALAIOS.
The study documents a technique that uses fossils to definitively distinguish French buhr from similar-looking Ohio chert (also known as flint). The most revealing fossil is a one-millimeter wide reproductive structure of a charophyte (a type of algae also known as a stonewort) that occurs in the rocks of the Paris Basin, a geological province centered around Paris, France. Read more.
Archaeologists excavating Ohio Hopewell mounds occasionally come across the remains of people who had been buried with separate human skulls. Hopewell artisans also sculpted representations of decapitated heads and headless human torsos.
Does this mean Ohio's ancient American Indians were headhunters?
Mark Seeman, professor emeritus at Kent State University, says that these decapitated heads were battle trophies. But Timothy Lloyd, an archaeologist at the University of Albany, points out that some of the bodies and skulls belonged to women, who seldom were warriors in indigenous societies. Read more.
CLEVELAND — The beer was full of bacteria, warm and slightly sour.
By contemporary standards, it would have been a spoiled batch here at Great Lakes Brewing Company, a craft beer maker based in Ohio, where machinery churns out bottle after bottle of dark porters and pale ales.
But lately, Great Lakes has been trying to imitate a bygone era. Enlisting the help of archaeologists at the University of Chicago, the company has been trying for more than year to replicate a 5,000-year-old Sumerian beer using only clay vessels and a wooden spoon.
"How can you be in this business and not want to know from where your forefathers came with their formulas and their technology?" said Pat Conway, a co-owner of the company. Read more.
MARIEMONT — At the village swimming pool, on a bluff high above the Little Miami River, an Ohio Historical Marker recognizes one of the most important archaeological sites in eastern North America.
It's long been known that American Indians buried more than 1,000 of their dead at this place, which archaeologists call the Madisonville site. The historical marker says it is "the largest and most thoroughly studied" site of the late Fort Ancient culture, which spanned the years from 1450 to 1670.
And yet, since 1879, when physician and archaeologist Charles Metz began excavating the burial grounds and identified an earthwork built by the Indians, major mystery has lingered: Where, exactly, did those people live?
Two weeks ago, on the flood plain below the bluff, students of University of Cincinnati anthropology professor Ken Tankersley dug up what they believe is the answer. Read more.
COLUMBUS, Ohio — Authorities are seeking people they say vandalized an ancient snake-shaped Serpent Mound by burying what may be hundreds of small muffin-like resin objects at the southern Ohio earthworks.
The Columbus Dispatch reports that the objects buried at the 63-acre Native American site in Peebles were embedded with aluminum foil and quartz crystal. Three have been found so far.
The Ohio Historical Society says a YouTube video posted by a group calling itself Unite the Collective shows people running across the earthworks. It includes comments by individuals describing themselves as "light warriors" who say they planted the objects to "help lift the vibration of the earth so we can all rise together."
Authorities say those responsible face misdemeanors punishable by up to 90 days in jail and a $5,000 fine. (source)

Hey there!
Your first question is tricky to answer, because I think that architecture is the one true liberal art, that can only grow and benefit from making interdisciplinary connections with other visual arts, sciences and areas of study. Or at least that's what I've studied during my time here, so I am VERY biased. I'm interested in how architecture can act as a lens, or filter, through which all my other interests go through. Because of this, I think that you should take EVERY course into consideration. Bennington allows you to make seemingly hidden or unknown connections between different disciplines, either because you want to complement them with each other (dance and music!) or you want to find what underlying idea brings all your interests together (the intersection of film, electronic music and painting through personal narratives, I don't know!). Because of architecture's capability to benefit from other disciplines (and viceversa), I've taken electronic music, ceramics, drawing courses, digital modelling, some literature, a bunch of assorted social sciences (political science, sociology), public action, etc. Do whatever you want with architecture, because it allows you to do so!
You're qualified to work in an architecture firm with any degree really, as long as you're good enough and they see in you whatever they're looking for in an employee! Will you be working with their design team, legal team, planning, construction, reasearch, etc., depends on your skillset, and not your degree necessarily. Legally though, you can only be certified as an architect if you have a certified architectural degree from a school that offers it. That being said, students do go to grad school for architecture after Bennington, and do end up working as AIA certified architects with their own firms.
Listen to this song!
~Carlos '14
First of all, we don't have 'programs' here, but we most certainly offer architecture courses! And there is an architecture professor, who could become your personal mentor and guiding light in the great adventure that is personalized college education! And there are architecture students here (SPOILER ALERT: I'm one of them) who do eventually go to grad school for architecture to become working architects if they so desire.
Short answer: Yes, you may definitely pursue that field if study if your heart calls out for it, and become an architecture student yourself! You can also just take it for fun, in a spur-of-the-moment kind of decision, and still get something out of it (or with any discipline for that matter).
If you're interested, here's a link to my final project for last term!
And here's a quote from one of my favorite architects, the late Luis Barragán:
"Any work of architecture which does not express serenity is a mistake"
Maybe you can join us one day to learn how to make the impermanent beautiful, how to transcend the human condition through drawings and design, how to express serenity…
~Carlos '14
Yesterday, I had my final critique for my architecture class, Twisted Siblings: Relationships Between Painting and Architecture. I designed a pavilion and the landscape it sits on based off specific compositional cues that I took from two paintings that I analyzed during the term (for those interested, they were this Christopher Wool painting and this painting by Sarah Morris). I was interested in the idea of designing a landscape that is informed by specific axial gestures, and that is only understandable through the pavilion that sits above the entire landscape. In a way, the landscape would only be readable because of the pavilion, and the pavilion is only there because of the landscape.
A proud Carlos!
Site plan view of my model!
Model detail with George the 1/4 scale male model!
Plan and section (pencil on bristol)!
Exploded axonometric/sketch/conceptual drawing (pencil, pen, on bristol)!
I don't know if this is the answer you were looking for, my friend, but this is something that didn't exist until two days ago, that stems from the things that keep me up at night you know? To most people, these images are just cool-looking drawings and models, that relate to architecture. These are the results of my passions here, the craft that I don't mind not sleeping a lot (or at all) for. I try to rationalize why I like making meticulous pencil drawings on paper that does not forgive my mistakes, drawings that take hours to make, a process that does not allow for erratic decisions or irrational gestures…but it's what I love doing. The beauty of slowness, of process, of not sleeping more than 2 hours in 2 days just to talk about an idea for 15 minutes!.
But look at how happy it makes me!
~Carlos '14

Do you want a cheap meal? An expensive meal? Light bite or full on bloating.. you decide. Yo sushi is great because you choose your own adventure, and you don't have to share or get what other people in your group are eating. The sushi is good and they have a good mix of seafood, meat and vegetarian dishes.
Each dish comes around on a conveyor belt and you can pick and choose what you want. Each meal is also in a coloured bowl depicting the price for that item. Each bowl ranges from about 1 pound to 5 pounds. Obviously the cheaper priced bowls are less inspired and less filling and the more expensive ones have a lot more time put in to them.
When a yummy looking bowl comes by you are likely to grunt and point or say I want that one loudly so diners around you understand your intentions. If they misunderstand you and grab the bowl you wanted, you can then grab a cheaper bowl and throw its contents at them. No, actually you can't do this but I have been tempted.
Luckily they usually put out plenty of the same bowl and they space them out. If you see something you wanted that was taken or there is something on the menu, you can order it up at no extra charge easily. If you order miso soup you get free refills of it, you pay for all other drinks which do not have free refills. You also have to pay for the SELF SERVE TAP WATER?! Weak.
Anyway, give your meal some time because you can fill up quickly and they always send something awesome around the belt after you are full. For 2 people with non alcoholic drinks, soup and a good mix of cheap and expensive bowls, you will spend 35-50 pounds.
Why oh why yo sushi? Every time I get a 40% off coupon I try you again only to come out of the meal feeling like I paid too much for too little.
Really not a fan. Nothing is remarkable, the gimmick of the revolving plate is now overdone, and if you can actually get a friendly AND competent waiter, well than lucky you!
I'm not trying to be mean, but really there's no point going here unless this is your only choice for a sushi lunch or you just really love conveyor belts...
I kinda like this place. Yeah the sushi is mediocre and the chefs are lary, but it has a certain charm to it. They've managed to combine the traditional Japanese sushi boat experience with the simplicity for us dumb westerners to be able to enjoy it. They've managed to successfully franchise the product and you get a very consistent product no matter where you go. The only thing that bugs me is the lack of rolls and sashimi. Lots of noodles, etc but it would be great to see more inspired rolls going around the conveyor belt.
This one in particular has a good location, inside the Fulham Broadway shopping center.
The healthier option to quick and easy, fast food. Yo sushi is always an enjoyable experience. However, having been to this branch twice, I do feel that the service is better at the waterloo one. Saying that, the food is always good. Definitely recommend yo sushi to anyone thats new to the sushi scene as its where I started out too.
Great place for families and friends, maybe not so good if your going in a large group...
I have given this branch 3 stars as there was a time they forgot our order, and made us miss the start of a movie...but everyone makes mistakes, right?
Good place, though the staff can be rather thinly spread. Came here yesterday with a friend, and I had to ask for a green tea about 3 times before they finally brought it. The waiter also spoke very bad English, and could hardly understand our orders. It took my friend about 5 tries to order the sushi roll she wanted, and when they finally brought it it was the wrong order and had to be sent back. Their Sunday deal of 10 dishes for £20 is really good, but it's very disappointing that they don't offer it at more venues. I miss their old deal of Sumo Sundays, which was all you can eat off the belt for £20 on Sundays. I'll be back at any rate. I do wish they stayed open later than their current hours, though.
Yo! Sushi at Fulham Broadway is a suitable sushi feast when one is required. Perfect for trips relating to the cinema or for a general quick bite, although it will never blow your mind as it did when the chain first came out. Don't go too crazy as sushi can end up being more costly then you were intending to spend!
Yo! Sushi is great not just for sushi lover but chicken katsu currey, which is only 3.50! what a bargain, and the restaurant is so muych fun because u sit up on a table next to a revolving food trolley and you pick what you fancy. it may seem confusing but colour codes on the bowls show you how much each bowl would be. You even get your own tap water tap at the table! Thats what you call service. Ha ha only problem is you pay for how many glasses you use, me and friends were a bit cheeky and used only one and shared it! They had this great deal as well when i was there, i fyou bought 5 bowls you got 5 free, me and my friends were so full afterwards but happy with our deal!
I do like Yo!Sushi; this one is well located outside the cinema in Fulham - so it's great before or after a movie for a quick informal (and relatively healthy) bite to eat. A bit formulaic now, it is probably in need of some injection of new ideas but kind of still works. (for those who dont know, it is a chain of Japanese 'fast food' self service on a conveyor belt)
Yo Sushi (stores can be found nationwide) is a quick and clean sushi resturant. with the novelty of watching your food go round on a conveyor belt. it isn't expensive and and staff are friendly.
Never had a problem with yo sushi in terms of the food and the service. Just that it never seems to fill me up and means I end up spending far too much. nice food though

TNA filed a lawsuit against WWE in Nashville yesterday, it's reported.
Nashville City Paper reports that an injunction was filed yesterday alleging that a former TNA employee, Brian Wittenstein, who went on to work for WWE earlier this year, supplied the company with "confidential information and trade secrets".
WWE informed TNA that Wittenstein had been divulging said trade secrets on May 7th. He was fired by WWE.
The information allegedly offered up included details on wrestlers' contracts. TNA claims that the company is now trying to poach TNA talent with this information, citing Ric Flair as an example. The Hall of Famer reportedly tried to end his deal with TNA two days later, they claim, in order to return to WWE.
In the lawsuit, TNA states: "This wrongful disclosure and misappropriation allows WWE to effectively price TNA out of the market and cause irreparable harm to TNA's business and profitability. WWE now knows the confidential details of TNA's business affairs including its marketing and business strategy and analysis, which leaves TNA vulnerable to WWE's unfair position in the market."
"In order to injure TNA and gain a competitive advantage, WWE intentionally interfered with TNA's contractual relationship with Ric Flair and maliciously used the trade secrets and confidential information provided by Wittenstein to approach Ric Flair."
WWE's lawyer, Jerry McDevitt, responded: "Our reaction is that no good deed ever goes unpunished. What the WWE did here is what you would hope any company would do in these circumstances it found itself in."
More on this story here.
Thoughts: Though not specifically female-related, a very interesting story to keep track of given the parties involved. Who doesn't love a good courtroom drama?
I read about this earlier, very curious to see what the outcome will be.
Otunga is 20-0 at Legalmania and works for free. TNA has no chance.
What about Mr. Joseph Park, Esq.? He would eat David Otunga alive.
As I messaged DivaDirt on Twitter the funniest thing is now the WWE can countersue TNA for using Real American for Brooke Hogans promo video. Real American is owned by WWE which is why Hogan has to use Voodoo Child or a watered down Version of Real American, Plus TNA is suing based off the assumption of Flair rejoining the WWE after it was Flair who quit on his own, Morgan finished his dates, and left, and Alex Shelly left on his own for never being used. So if TNA even tries to pull those 3 it's over for them. Plus it was public knowledge of Morgan's dates running out it was all over the internet so anyone can pull that up and prove it to be a shut case. TNA isn't doing themselves favors with this lawsuit at all.
The "Real American" song is owned by Rick Derringer?.
Yeah, wonder if we'll see Morgan and Alex in WWE at all.
As for Ric Flair, WWE paid him to go back because obviously TNA did use Flair very good and Flair was a big part of the company so WWE decided to get his ass back.
I will remember that last sentence after WWE will have to pay cash to TNA.
By the way, what happen to WWE network? LOL
I hope we will see Morgan and Shelley in WWE cause they are both great workers! :)
Too bad they let Morgan go since he was their main eventer at Ring a King too.
And it begins… They didn't take the WCW route and try to take WWE head on, Dixie runs to court. This hopefully angers Vince enough to upgrade all aspects of his company to make TNA look bad
Here's hoping that that does get to happen can you imagine the talent wars they can pull off
yes… The WWE would have to bring Kharma back, maybe Trieh or Lita. Pull the trigger on Beth vs Natalya. Put Naomi in the ring and let her go wild. The possibilities are endless
I'll take the latter, please.
And ill take all of the above………
lets see how this turns out
its funny how wwe fires the guy and admits he gave information…..had they never told on him this might not have happened…
but if TNA found out then WWE would be in much bigger trouble for keeping the info to themselves
i wish TNA would learn when they play with fire there gonna get burned, and for a company that is kinda struggling with money and everything, they are gonna waste money on sueing WWE, for something that WWE came to them and told them was going on. like seriously they should have thanked WWE, for telling them,
but it says they are now scared WWE is gonna sign all the TNA talent that contracts are coming up, but when you think about it, WWE never really signed very many TNA wrestlers, Kharma, Consqnes CReed, and maybe a few more, its TNA that is signing all WWE talent,
i find this so pathetic by TNA, its crazy
WWE may have told them, but they still went ahead and used the information in a wrong way. But judging from your post history, we all know you're bias to begin with.
"Used the information the wrong way??"
How do you even know they used it? How can anyone prove in the court of law that the WWE maliciously used those information to acquire talents from TNA and gain leverage when it comes to negotiating deals with said talents? The WWE is the biggest dog in the yard and if they really want to sign a talent or get them back to their side of the fence they will stretch their muscles and flash you their cash. Lots and lots of cash. If they think you are worth an X amount of cash they will offer you an X + Y amount of cash. They don't need an ex-employee from a struggling company to come out and divulge "secret" information for them to make a move and snatch every talents they'd consider to be worth their dime.
It's certainly easier for them to make competitive offers to TNA talents to lure them away when they have all of their contract details.
It might only be a slight advantage, but an advantage none of the less. And if it's true that they were holding onto the information for three weeks, then clearly they must have had some reason for doing so (unless you want to argue that they were too busy preparing for Wrestlemania or that WWE simply forgot about it since they 'care so little about TNA').
There's a very coincidental timing with the alleged breach of confidentiality, and all this recent news about Flair, Morgan and Shelley definitively going to WWE. Perhaps TNA are just being opportunistic, but there's no doubt more going on than what is being reported at the moment, and the details should come out in due time.
I'd be pretty sure that TNA wouldn't be prepared to go to court without more evidence than what we've heard about so far (to be honest, there's very little information about the case beyond the initial injunction to prevent the defendants destroying potential evidence).
'Struggling with money'? Dixie Carter and Jeff Jarrett have both said that the company has been profitable for several years now. So have other people such as former TNA employees Road Dogg (currently a WWE agent) and Terry Taylor (seen at FCW recently).
This is in contrast with WWE whose stock price has been nosediving over the last year, and who delivered their first quarter in the red (since the early 2000's I believe) in Q4 last year.
Thank WWE for holding onto confidential information for 3 weeks instead of returning it immediately? TNA allegedly knew about the information leak from a WWE source tipping them off before hand, so if WWE became aware that TNA might know, they had no choice but to contact TNA, unless they wanted to face ever stronger legal penalties.
The last former WWE talent that TNA signed to a contract was Matt Hardy I believe, all the way back in January 2011. You might also want to count Gail Kim late last year, but she made her career in TNA. It's simply naive to believe that WWE wouldn't want to raid TNA's talent. Several former employees have said that there was significant interest in quite a few TNA talents (specifically Bobby Roode and James Storm as singles competitors). WWE have been depleting ROH's talent roster for a while now, so it's clear that they're desperate for new stars, given their reliance on older stars at the moment.
So of course TNA is going to be 'scared' of WWE raiding their talent, and there's no doubt that they should be. Vince McMahon has killed many a promotion by raiding their talent in the territory days. The WWF itself was almost killed off by WCW taking most of their top talent in the 90's (which forced them to make new stars in the Attitude Era). ECW suffered from losing their talent to both WCW and WWF. TNA has continually struggled with having their elevated talents leave to WWE (which is the main reason Jeff Jarrett kept the belt on himself all those years).
If you simply expect TNA to lay down and let WWE take anyone they can buy out, then you obviously don't want to see any sort of competition in the industry. Competition is what drives the companies to do better, and is how us as fans get a better overall product. Simply siding with 'Team WWE' every time, is only going to lead to them further monopolizing the market.
The Attitude Era was so good because it had to be, otherwise it may have been curtains for the WWF/E. I dont want to see either company fold. I want them to push each other and provide quality programming. We have seen what happens when the WWE gets complacent. WWE could provide a good show just on wrestling talent alone, when there is little/no competition their product tends to be poor all the way around.
Just like other markets where monopolies exist, the consumer is the loser. Just remember that WWE cheerleaders.
What you have are mere speculations. It will not hold up in court. If they're relying on the information that they've allegedly received from a WWE source then their case against the defendants doesnt have any legs unless that person comes out, corroborate with them and testify against the E. Even then it's still going to be wobbly. That person is basically going to be the witness and their only evidence to a crime that may or may not have happen. Sure they can call those rumoured stars about to jumpship on the stands to testify. But that's taking a lot of risks and I don't think TNA would want to do that. They don't know how contract negotiations with those stars went but I'm pretty sure a conglomerate like WWE doesnt lay everything out in the open to sign a talent. So how is that going to help their case against the WWE? It might actually hurt them. What we know so far as facts are : The person who divulge those sensitive informations was terminated for doing so. TNA was informed of the matter. TNA sued the WWE. That's it. Everything else are pure speculations.
I'm not taking sides, I'm actually critical of both promotion. You on the other hand is obviously leaning firmly towards TNA. That's fine. But I only want to comment about the merit of their case against the WWE. So with all the information that we have so far, I think it would be very difficult for TNA to prove their allegations.
I agree that from the information currently reported, TNA doesn't have any evidence to win the case, but keep in mind that the case hasn't even begun yet, and you'd have to have a very low opinion about TNA's competence (and their parent company's) if you believe that they don't have anything else as proof.
Personally I couldn't say at this point whether I think TNA will win the case. But for that matter, I don't think any of us can make that judgement until more details come out. I do believe WWE's behaviour suspicious, and that there's definitely more to this than a cut and dried case.
It wouldn't be able to go to court without significant evidence.
TNA are already losing to Daffney in a lawsuit.. can they really afford to lose to WWE?
TNA just needs to settle the case pay Daffney her $15 dollars and move on.
how rude, $15?? for all those injuries she suffered thanks to Terry Taylor and Dixie Carter's ignorance, I think more than $15 will cover the cost of her medical bills.
TNA are going to lose to WWE, accept it!
All I've heard about the lawsuit is that the attorney who represents TNA in Texas, requested to represent them in Tennessee. The case doesn't begin until next month, so there's no evidence that anyone is 'winning' or 'losing' it at the moment.
With that said, most people only know one side of the story, and according to Terry Taylor (who mind you is always highly spoken about by pretty much the majority of people in the industry), the medical fees were taken of.
It seems people are forgetting that WWE kept these important files for WEEKS before informing TNA they had them. WWE was BIG TIME in the wrong for that.
Thank you!
TNA is a joke and will do anything to get publicity in mainstream media. Not many people care about TNA, even wrestling fans.
They still average about 1.4 million weekly in the US, which isn't all that bad really (although their viewership has been falling lately). They have even more viewership worldwide. Clearly millions of people do care about what they put out every week.
WWE will also do anything to get mainstream publicity. It's basically all that Vince McMahon has ever attempted to do, and that is for his company to be accepted as 'mainstream'.
If TNA has any sort of case at all against WWE, even if they end up losing, it would still be good publicity for them, since not everyone knows that there are other wrestling promotions besides WWE, which is perhaps what you suggest (because you can't care about something you don't know).
I highly doubt they are doing this just for publicity though, especially since there's a legitimate grievance here.
Wasting money? If WWE is trying to steal away their best talent and It's illegal. You are supposed to do something about it. Who knows if they win and end up getting some serious cash out of WWE which would be hilarious.
WWE is such a joke, lmao at people who still watch it LOL
I like TNA but they are going to loose and WWE isn't that bad -!-
I guess we will see that. Hahaha!
Yeah, only PPV saves them.
How would they win? As JJ stated, WWE has the money & better law team to squash this. They could very well destory TNA if they pleased.
Joke? Oh, right kinda how a man is holding a knockouts title. Or how Dixie has become a JOKE by letting people take over her own company? Yeah that's a JOKE.
Excuse, do you work in WWE or TNA to know financial situation?
WWE is very "rich" if they're still wannabe a TV network..
Wow, I got more jokes about WWE then you, I doubt you will read them all since true hurts to WWE marks ;)
Anyone with a brain knows WWE has the amount of money to buy out TNA. I guess that explains why you don't understand this.
LOL and what channel is TNA on? Spike. Honey get your shit togetehr please. Feel free to state those jokes, you love taking shots at WWE, yet act as if TNA is the best company ever. Hiring Brooke Hogan LOL.
They have money but TNA isn't going anywhere, TNA isn't for selling ;)
You wanna talk about United States? What about TV station in United Kingdom. They know what real wrestling is, TNA beats WWE every week and TNA just started and beat them.
Brooke isn't going to wrestle but here are lists of female JOKES in WWE:
Hiring Kelly Kelly, Ashley Massaro, Ashley Flair, CAMERON, using Naomi as a dancer LMAO, The Bella Twins, Maria Men…. something, Maria Kanellis and the lists goes on.
You want to know why TNA beats WWE in the United Kingdom? WWE is on at like two in the morning over there while TNA is on at a better time. And if you don't think Brooke will eventually somehow end up wrestling, you're just fooling yourself.
They might as well sell. Dixie's sold out already.
CONGRATS! TNA beat WWE in one country, big deal right?! Let's point out TNA hm? Hiring Brooke Hogan, the whole Daffney situation, the whole Roxxi thing as well, as underpaying roster members, & let's see shitting on homegrown talent. Oh & there's not being able to make their own stars & using WWE has-beens. Want more?
And LOL yes because the Bellas were bad right? Actually Ashley barely had training, hardly the girl's fault. Have we even seen Cameron wrestle before? Hm, didn't think so. Maria? Perfect example of a DS girl having a passion for wrestling. You look so idiotic right now.
If TNA were such a joke, they shouldn't be beating WWE in any country under any circumstances (unless you accept that WWE is a joke too).
Men holding women's titles? The owner of the company losing control of it (in storyline)? Being on the Spike network? Brooke Hogan? 'Celebrity' authority figures? These 'jokes' have already happened in WWE.
It's arguable how big of a star Bobby Roode and Austin Aries are, but both have been pushed consistently above ex-WWE talent for the past year as the two top champions in the company, and neither have been 'shitted on'. The only ex-WWE talents who are current champions at the moment are Devon and Gail Kim. Both who have been in TNA longer now than they ever were in WWE. The rest are all 'home-grown' talent.
Yes it isn't Ashley Massaro's fault at all. It's WWE for putting her on live television without giving her any training, and forcing her to learn on the fly. Same case with Kelly Kelly, who would arguably be a lot better if she took some time off just to work on her basic wrestling skills. Instead both girls are used as running jokes to describe poor wrestling.
Anyone with a brain (and who has done some research) knows that the company that owns TNA (Panda Power Funds) could easily afford to buy out WWE if they wanted to. Probably the reason that they haven't, is because WWE is simply not a good investment (hence why their stock has always struggled). TNA is only really a tiny asset for Panda, and any gains or losses it makes are fairly inconsequential to the overall company. Of course it needs to be profitable to justify keeping it (which it is believed to be).
Some of your other points I could hold you to account for, but I'll leave it at that.
@redsandman99: There have been a few weeks when you could combine the individual viewership of all WWE shows shown in the UK (Raw, Smackdown, NXT, Superstars, Experience, AM Raw .etc) including their repeats (ie. Raw at a better timeslot later in the week), and Impact Wrestling would still have more viewers. With that said, the most valid reason why TNA does better is that they're on a free to view channel (about 95% of the population have it), while WWE is only on pay TV (about 40% I believe).
I believe the only thing keeping TNA alive is the knockouts. Everything else fails in comparison.. Sadly enough the knockouts aren't enough… Because overall the WWE is a league of its own
Oh TNA…
Going after the man in question is the right decision. Going after WWE is stupid, unnecessary and going to cost them. WWE has a fantastic law team and they aren't going to lose something when they aren't in the wrong.
We might look at this in ten years time as the first step towards TNA's closure.
How are they not in the wrong? They have confidential information that isn't supposed to be theirs, and are using it to a attack a company that isn't a threat to them.
I would understand if TNA was in WCW's level and was actually competition, but this nothing more than bullying a child.
That's what TNA is alledging and as of right now they have no facts to prove WWE even benefitted from the information, let alone claim WWE is trying to "attack" TNA.
Here are the facts we know so far:
Wittenstein gave the information to WWE who then fired him for doing so and told TNA what happened. TNA responds by trying to sue them. That's it, that's all the facts.
Bringing Flair into the equation is going to backfire for TNA because he's been unhappy for months and HE wanted out of his contract. If WWE approached Flair with an offer that isn't illegal; if they said to him "We know you're making this amount and we can top it" that would be illegal. It's doubtful WWE would have done that in the first place (they would have known in advance they could top his offer so would have no need to say it) and that's basically what TNA's argument rests on at the moment, which would be incredibly hard for them to prove.
Really, it's hard to see WWE as the baddie here unless you're TRYING to see them as the baddie. If you take the information as it is, it doesn't look good for TNA. It might even sour the court's opinion of them for trying to go after WWE as well, rather than solely go after Wittenstein (which they would easily win).
It has been reported that TNA was tipped off by a WWE source about WWE committing illegal activities against them 3 weeks before WWE officially contacted TNA about it. If this is true, then there's an obvious question mark about why WWE would stall, as opposed to contact TNA immediately.
As you have said, we really know very little about the case beyond what has been reported. I doubt TNA would be playing their full hand to the public (and WWE) right away. You've essentially made the assumption that all that we've heard so far is all the evidence TNA has against WWE. None of us are the position to say whether this is or not the case.
I agree that WWE has a very good lawyer in Jerry McDevitt (who is incredibly cunning), but from his statements it seems like they're already on the back foot and trying to mitigate their losses. At the same time, TNA surely has very good lawyers as well through their parent company. How good the lawyers are though is besides the point though if we're discussing whether WWE is at fault or not.
TNA's 'closure' is wishful thinking that has never eventuated despite how many times people say it. I think the only way your statement would occur is if Vince McMahon suddenly wanted to do everything he could to put TNA out of business (in which case TNA might be better off not winning the case).
You're right that maybe TNA has something else up their sleeve, but it would have to be something strong because this won't be good enough. Like any lawsuit they needed to lay their best hand down on the table to start with and if this is their best hand then they're in trouble.
Unfortunately (for society) how good the lawyers are does matter. Right should prevail over wrong but often doesn't. Often the better law team wins the race. WWE has a strong, intelligent and crafty law team with decades of experience and knowledge of the business and contracts. They are the stronger team in this case, and so far they have a very good case.
Personally I do not want TNA or any wrestling promotion to go out of business so it is not wishful thinking. I want alternatives and competition so that every company steps up. I want more places for the stars of tomorrow to perfect their craft and places where people who will never get the main spotlight still get a chance to shine. But the persisting rumours of TNA's less than stellar business practices and money issues persist for a reason. People more in the know than any fan or standard dirtsheet have expressed the same worries about their closure. With every risk like this lawsuit, it becomes easier to look forward in time ten years and pinpoint this as one of the key mistakes they made.
There's been new information reported (I'm not meant to link to anything here but I'm sure you can find it) that the lawsuit hasn't actually been filed yet, and all that has occurred is an injunction on the defendants from destroying evidence. A lot of the information going around is actually misinformation (including some of the things reported here).
So once again, it's hard for any of us to really comment on the case until the actual lawsuit it at least filed.
I do agree that WWE will most likely have the stronger law team, since certainly they will have more experience in the wrestling industry, but some of the issues being dealt with here are not specific to wrestling (like inside information), so the playing field might be more even here than for WWE in other cases they've had. It's not like WWE haven't lost court cases in the past either.
Also, I'm not sure who you're referring to who have talked about TNA's closure. The only people I can think of are Jerry Jarrett and Jim Cornette, but neither are particularly credible when it comes to their opinions on TNA. Perhaps they would be actually complimentary about TNA now that their good friend Vince Russo isn't there anymore.
On the contrary I've heard quite a few former employees who believe that the company is doing fine at the moment and is not going to go out of business any time soon.
they should do it to Divas. :))
It'll most likely be settled out of court.
This is like poking a bear with a stick. WWE will tear them apart in court, though I guess you have to pay for those live episodes in some way? I doubt Vince is even bothered by this, as is custom with anything inolving TNA. Irrelvant.
WWE marks LMAO!
Copy and paste, nice…
Which company is relevant though? Oh, thought so.
To wrestling fans, it obviously ain't WWE.
Only little baby kids watches WWE and wrestlers go there because they can make lot of money since WWE started before.
TNA is only 10 years old and look what become today! A global phenomenal!
WWE will go DOWN in the next 10 years! ;)
Crying @ global phemonal. Stop lying to yourself. It's not cute. If anything TNA will be dead in 10 years. Ask any hardcore indy fans, they'll shit on WWE, but they damn despise TNA even more. I didn't realize you took a poll on WWE's audience?
TNA has been stuck in a rut for about 2 years now.
Indy fans are jealous because lots of indy shows were opened and debuted in TNA time and TNA succeed while other indys failed.
Hahahaha, very funny, I'm gonna laugh when DivaDirt in 2010 year won't report any news about WWE because WWE won't be anymore.
At least TNA isn't losing fans every year so stop lying to yourself and wake up ;)
"I'm gonna laugh when DivaDirt in 2010 year won't report any news about WWE because WWE won't be anymore." Um, what?
ROH & DG USA have better wrestling than WWE, but they absolutely trump TNA. Wrestling matters? How about the Impact after BFG, 7 minutes of wrestling – LOLTNA. (Google it, absolutely hilarious how bad they are)
Let's go to a TNA house show – 300 people. Let's go to a TV taping – 1,000 people. Biggest PPV of the year – 2,000
WWE house show – 3,000 – 6,000 people. TV taping – 8,000 – 10,000. Biggest PPV of the year – over 70,000.
TNA PPVs get around 3,000 buys (6,000 at best). WWE's worst PPV got 96,000 buys – hm, I wonder who's better!? WrestleMania got 1.4 million buys this year. More PPV buys than TNA gets in viewers
Your numbers are ridiculously wrong. You could have proven your point with the actual numbers without having to exaggerate them.
TNA house show: anywhere from 300 (very rarely) to 6000+ (in UK, of course only three or so times a year). The average is probably around 1000.
TV taping: I believe the last few in the US were all in the realms of 2000 to 5000. The UK taping I believe was 10000+.
Bound for Glory 2011: 3500 to 5500 (reports vary, most likely due to how much papering is factored in)
WWE attendances vary widely, especially between Raw and Smackdown shows. Raw is almost always 8000+ for a taping, less for house shows depending on the arena. Smackdown has really struggled in the past year. At times their TV taping audience has been less than 3000 and they've had to 'curtain off' the majority of the arena.
Wrestlemania always gets a massive attendance, but this year they still weren't sold out on the day of the event, and had to cut prices (reportedly some people were given free tickets) to get an attendance record.
The Wrestlemania 28 PPV buys was actually kind of sad. WWE announced it had 1.3 million buys (not 1.4 as you said), which got them quite a lot of publicity. However, the recently revised figures are that it was only 1.22 million. Obviously it was still a lot, but I doubt it was a mistake that WWE were off on their estimate by 800,000.
Your TNA buy figures don't seem to be based on anything factual (not even Meltzer's 'early estimates' are that low). Not that I buy into what Meltzer reports, but he reported that Lockdown 2008 got 55,000 buys, so if you want to believe his usually low figures (since he is the only person who has ever tried to 'report' them, although no one else has ever corroborated his 'estimates'), then you have to take his highest figure as well. In truth, no one can actually know what TNA's PPV buys are since they're a privately-held company. Very few people in the company know what those figures are (not even some of the top executives know), so one of them would have to have been leaking that information for the past (whatever) years (what they have to gain from that I have no idea).
This is mainly off topic though (initiated by yourself), but I just thought your figures should be corrected. Although it's sort of obvious that WWE should be pulling in higher attendances since they've been around for so long, so you're merely stating the obvious.
This is like poking a bear with a stick. WWE will tear them apart in court, though I guess you have to pay for those live episodes in some way? I doubt Vince is even bothered by this, as is custom with anything inolving TNA. Irrelvant. LOL
I believe in morals and ethics, and I feel what is WWE is did extremely unfair and wrong. TNA is not a threat to them in anyway, so I don't know why they feel the need to attack them.
But of course, the fans are just turning this into a popularity contest, not even taking into account who is actually wrong here.
So it was a fair for Dixie a few years ago to announce Christian going back to WWE? I think not.
I'm a little confused by your comment, WWE aren't attacking TNA, they are defending themselves after doing the right thing by telling TNA about Wittenstein. Dunno what Dixie was thinking anyway, it's a lost battle
I'm sure all will hopefully be settled, hope it doesn't get dirty.
Of course they're defending themselves. They're the ones being sued. Allegedly they were the ones who threw the first stone though according to the lawsuit.
Whether they did the 'right' thing is all relative. If they held onto that information for 3 weeks (as alleged), then it clearly isn't 'right', and they only contacted TNA as a cover up, which is probably even worse than not telling them since they're purposely attempting to mislead TNA into believing they only just became aware of the information. It also makes it harder for them to scapegoat someone below, since it's more likely that the higher ups were aware about what was going on.
@Katie: That's not particularly relevant to what's going on here. But regarding that situation, Dixie Carter was asked in an interview to address the rumours about Christian returning to WWE,and she went ahead and confirmed them. It was pretty much a foregone conclusion at that point that Christian was returning, so it's not like she really spoiled anything for anyone.
You know I always wondered if ric flair was really working for WWE while he was in TNA. Him and hogan is really working with WWE to find out everything that goes on in TNA.
It'd be hilarious if they just went to TNA to see how much they could do. LOL Dixie you dumbass.
That'd be funny lol.
TNA is fucked. Enough said.
TNA scores less than 1.0 ratings almost e every week. TNA's roster is full of WWE has been wrestlers. There is no way they could put WWE out. Other than impact spoilers and photo shoots, they're rarely on here. The WWE has something going on outside of the ring constantly
What does that have to do with the lawsuit?
I'd imagine it was a reply to the hilarious claims that WWE will be out of business in ten years.
Agreed JJ. I see the Internet still doesn't have an IQ limit set. A real shame.
That it was lol
I don't think TNA will be what puts WWE out of business. But it isn't unrealistic that WWE couldn't go out of business in the next ten years. And mainly by their own doing.
Their stock is currently at 10 year lows. Their ratings (including viewership) have been falling for all their shows in the US (Superstars and NXT were both pulled for low ratings). They lost money in Q4 last year. Their PPV buys (outside of Wrestlemania) have dropped in the past few years. Attendance has been lower (especially for Smackdown).
WWE Studios continues to drain on their profitability with no sign of being axed. The WWE Network that the company has already spent millions on (they've taken out a $200 million line of credit from JP Morgan Chase Bank to finance it) was supposed to have debuted at Wrestlemania this year, and is still yet to find a carrier that actually wants to broadcast them.
There has been an absence of creating many new stars in the past few years and an increasing reliance now on older/Attitude era stars to headline shows and main event (Lesnar, The Rock, Undertaker, Triple H, Kane, Big Show, and to a lesser extent: Cena, Jericho, Albert/Tensai, Christian, R-Truth, Rey Mysterio, Mark Henry) to keep ratings and PPV buys from dropping even further (after botched youth movements in the past like the Nexus). Once all these big stars are gone (in the next 10 years probably), then there's only a few talents at the moment that have been built up enough to bridge that hole (CM Punk, Daniel Bryan, Sheamus), and none of them are proven draws yet (quite the opposite in fact).
Clearly WWE is facing some serious problems in the next decade, and given the massive amounts of money to keep their company operating, if their revenue streams begin to dry up, they're going to have to scale their company back, which is only going to cause further problems at an operational level.
WWE Raw now moving to a three-hour format every week could be disastrous given how much it hurt WCW Nitro when they made the same move (which was at WCW's height!), so overall WWE's future prospects don't look very good at all unless they make some dramatic changes to their business.
I think it's hilarious how Piggie James just shuts down the pissing contests with logic.
They have no case. WWE could of sued Dixie Carter for going around saying how Christian re-signed with WWE.
WCW did the exact same to WWF in the 90s, that's how they got Lex Luger, Rick Rude, Alundra Blayze and even Jeff Jarrett – the man who went on to be a co-founder of TNA.
This will not end well.
I don't know why TNA even tries…they must know they can't hold a candle to WWE. WWE could sue TNA fr them using real american for brookes promo but they don't.

Ratings & Reviews
Janet and Ken helped us sell our home this summer and purchase a new home. I highly recommend Integrity Choice Realty to anyone looking to sell or purchase a home. The biggest compliment I can give them is that we never felt like they were doing anything other than what was in our best interest. Ken and Janet are quite the dynamic duo, Ken is the tough negotiator that you want on your side and Janet is the one who will stick through it with you until you find exactly the home you want. We sold our house this summer in three days and are very happy with the home we ended up purchasing in Midlothian. We have already recommended Integrity to a friend of ours who is looking to sell there home and this recommendation is to anyone else out there looking for a realtor that is going to fight for what YOU want!!!!
Janet and Ken Carroll could not have been more attentive than they were.
My husband & I had planned to sell our home and retire to our home place in Ohio. He passed away before the sale happened so I was left to follow thru on my own. The buyers bank lagged behind and closing dates kept changing. My belongings had been picked up, so I was living in an empty house, just waiting.
Ken was very compassionate and understanding and made many, many calls to get the bank moving. I truly believe if it had not been for his understanding of my situation and his constantly follow thru with the bank, and the buyers agent, I may still be in Richmond today.
I know a lot of people in the Richmond area and you can bet if they decide to sell their home, I will definitely recommend this group.
Sincerely Ann Harrison
This was a great company to work with. We had lots of showings and several offers. They kept us up to date on everything. They took excellent pictures that really showed off our house nicely. The house sold alot faster than we expected. This is a five star realty company. Our thanks to Janet and Ken.
ICR was our third attempt at selling in a very tough market. Janet & Ken got our house sold in 28 Days! They should have been first. Everything from the staging contact to the repair company they recommended was great. We even saved on the commission. Communication was excellent. Everything was as easy and stress free as we wanted. Skip the big names next time and see what Integrity Choice Realty can do for you in the Richmond area.
We met Janet Carol through another referral. Janet came out to our house and from the first meeting until the time we closed and even after we closed she made sure we were taken care of. Her professionalism was outstanding and she always kept us in the loop of what was going on. She made great suggestions that made a tremendous impact on how our house was presented to prospective buyers.This was key in selling our home and Janet made it happen quickly. If you are looking for a great realtor and person;call Janet Carol.
My house had been on the market a year prior to my signing with Integrity Choice. Few people had viewed the house and no one made an offer to buy it. The house was 30+ years old with lots of special features and upgrades. In my inital interview with the agent we discussed the real estate market, their working relationship with clients and their strategy for selling the house. Within a day of the listing being placed on their website, I had a viewing and an offer. Although this sale didn't work out, my agents were optimistic and provided the support I needed to get through this issue. Within the next few months, many people viewed my home. My realtors always provided me with advanced notice of the viewing taking into consideration my schedule and supplied me with the necessary feedback after the viewing. They were always available to answer questions or to handle my concerns. When a contract was finally submitted, they were able to negotiate a price that was reasonable to both parties. Their friendly, patient, and caring help in locating a new residence - a perfect match for my needs - was additionally appreciated. I would highly recommend Integrity Choice Realty to anyone desiring to sell their home.l
We thoroughly enjoyed working with Ryan Carroll at Integrity Choice Realty. My husband and I recently relocated to Virginia from Arizona 10 months ago. Not knowing the real estate market very well on the east coast, we were lucky to have found Ryan! Ryan worked above and beyond to meet our every need and was very accommodating with my husbands intense work schedule. Ryan was very knowledgable about the most desirable places to live and the housing areas that had the highest resale value. This young man is definitely on the ball!! There was no doubt that Ryan understood exactly what we were looking for in a home and made the whole process of buying a home very exciting and enjoyable. Thanks Ryan for being a part of our new start in Virginia!! Much appreciated, Doug & Carrie
Janet and Ken worked tirelessly to get my house sold, and Janet and I had a great time finding another house. She was very helpful in considering the pros and cons of my purchase. Ken is the tough negotiator! He's the one you want on your side when a low offer is made on your property. Thanks to both of them and their team. I can recommend them without hesitation!
Ken and his staff were extremely responsive and helpful right from the beginning. Ken's advice on everything was great from getting the house ready to sell to pricing and negotiating. He recommended contractors to do some work before the listing and to remedy some items found on the inspection. The contractors were all top notch people who did a great job in a timely manner. He kept us informed during all steps of the process via phone calls, emails and texts. Our house had an offer the first day it was listed and negotiations were completed in just a few more days - unheard of in this market. We've never had such great service from a Realtor.

Marlins-Rangers Preview
Miami Marlins at Texas Rangers
- With its 4-3 victory over the Cubs on Sunday, Miami avoided a sweep in its weekend series at Wrigley Field, and won for the fifth time in the last seven games overall. The Marlins are 14-8 (.636) in one-run games this season -- second best in MLB (Padres are 13-7, .650).
- The Rangers lost, 17-7, at home to the Indians last night, and have dropped three straight games (all to Cleveland) by a combined score of 28-12. Texas is just 6-14 in its last 20 games at Rangers Ballpark -- the second worst home mark of any MLB team since April 28.
- These clubs last met in 2011 with the Marlins taking two of three from the Rangers in Arlington. Miami is 4-2 in six all-time games vs. Texas at Rangers Ballpark (also won two of three in 2003).
- Tom Koehler went 5.0 innings and allowed three runs (all earned) last Wednesday in Tampa, beating the Rays and snapping his personal two-game losing streak in the process. Tonight marks Koehler's first career appearance vs. the Rangers.
- Colby Lewis allowed five runs (all earned) in 5.0 innings last Thursday vs. the Orioles, garnering a no-decision in the contest. Lewis (1-2, 6.85 ERA in his last four starts overall) will be making his first career appearance against the Marlins tonight.
- Miami is 7-0 during interleague play this season -- best of any team in the majors. In fact, dating to August 13, 2013, the Marlins have won 12 straight games vs. American League teams overall -- one shy of tying the Yankees (2003-2004) and Rays (2004) for the longest interleague win streaks all-time.

By ALAN FERGUSON
(AP) -- In their attempt at an unprecedented 14th consecutive interleague win, the Miami Marlins will face a pitcher who's been at his best in recent matchups against NL opponents.
While helping the Texas Rangers avoid a season-high fifth consecutive defeat, Yu Darvish looks to improve to 6-1 lifetime in interleague games and win a career-best fourth consecutive start Wednesday night.
Christian Yelich had a career-high four hits, including a two-run, two-out go-ahead single in the seventh, and finished with four RBIs as Miami (34-30) won 8-5 in Tuesday's series opener. Miami's 13th consecutive interleague win matched the MLB mark set by the New York Yankees and Tampa Bay in 2004.
"It's one of those baseball things you probably can't figure out," manager Mike Redmond said after his team improved to 8-0 against the AL this season. "I'm sure there's probably somebody a lot smarter than me that can figure it out, but we just go out there and try to win a ball game."
As it tries to make history, Miami will also attempt to solve Darvish (6-2, 2.36 ERA). He's 5-1 with a 2.20 ERA and 58 strikeouts in his last six outings, spanning 45 innings, but labored Friday against Cleveland.
Darvish gave up a season high-tying four runs and nine hits - his most allowed in 43 starts - in seven innings. The right-hander, though, earned a 6-4 victory after Michael Choice's go-ahead homer in the seventh.
Darvish had 1.14 ERA in his previous four outings and matched a season high with 12 strikeouts in a 2-0 win in Washington on June 1. He is 3-1 with a 0.31 ERA in his last four interleague starts and a 1.55 ERA in seven overall.
"We'll have our work cut out for us," Redmond told the team's website. "He just has that ability to make guys miss. He throws some offspeed pitches that just seem to float out of the zone. He's been pretty productive. He's one of the best in this game. We'll definitely have a challenge out there."
Darvish is facing the contending Marlins, who have won six of eight overall and nine of 13 on the road, for the first time. Miami trails Atlanta and Washington by one-half game in the NL East.
The Marlins will likely need a better outing from Jacob Turner (2-3, 5.93) if they want to gain sole possession of first place for the first time since May 8. The right-hander has allowed five runs in back-to-back starts and given up four or more in six of eight this season.
Turner, however, got enough support for an 11-6 victory against Tampa Bay on Thursday. He was 0-11 with a 4.09 ERA in his previous 18 road starts and 0-2 with a 4.67 ERA in his first three this season.
Turner is making his first start against Texas (31-34). He had no record and a 2.25 ERA in three interleague starts before beating the Rays.
Texas has dropped 16 of 22 at home, posting a 5.73 ERA in those games - well above its already AL-worst 4.60 overall. The Rangers are playing without first basemen Mitch Moreland and Prince Fielder, but Rougned Odor returned from a sprained right shoulder Tuesday, going 2 for 4 with an RBI single.
Odor, though, also committed an error that led to Yelich's go-ahead single, one of three for Texas.
The Rangers haven't dropped five in a row overall since a season-high, seven-game skid Sept. 9-16.

Police tell KMOX News the two men, one wearing a clown mask and the other wearing a shirt over his face, forced the clerk at the store on South Lindbergh and Union into a supply closet at gunpoint.
After tying her up they proceeded to steal 25 to 30 smartphones.
The two fled in a dark-colored SUV.
