I've decided to dedicate a few minutes to tearing into this slap nuts, Timmy90, from the Divas Dirt home page. I will say that it is generally my favorite site dedicated to all things female in the wrestling world, but this poster really got my goat, and I don't like having my goat got.
"I don’t know why everyone is pissed off at this storyline. I mean come on piggy “mickie” james has gain some weight. she can’t even wear her ring gear anymore. the wwe is trying to help her. I don’t think piggy will? make in the music world, but she can be a poster child for jenny craig. she just needs to lose….30/40 pounds that all."
First of all, Jurassic slap ass, learn to write in English. Mickie James, and the unfortunate moniker on which that bastion of thinness Chris "Big Dick Johnson" DeJoseph (he is one of Smackdown's writers, after all, and handles mostly backstage nonsense instead of the real meat of wrestling, the in ring performance) hung on her, are both proper nouns. In English we tend to capitalize proper nouns. We don't go as crazy with our capitalizing as do our Teutonic friends, but some words deserve that honor and those words are specific people, places and things. Secondly, dorknozzle, Mickie James is five feet, five inches tall and weighs one hundred and thirty pounds. If she lost ".30/40 pounds" she would be unhealthily emaciated. Mickie isn't my favorite women wrestler--that honor goes to Nattie Neidhart--and doesn't even really make my top five (which is peopled by Nattie, Beth Phoenix, Awesome Kong, Katie Lea Burchill and, God help us, ODB... I'd say the Bellas but they don't really count as "wrestlers")--but she is a gorgeous women with great curves and lots of energy. Mickie may not have Awesome Kong's awe inspiring power or Nattie's incredible spunk (who but the incomparable Nattie does? well, maybe Lois Lane) but she does good work in ring and seems like a real sweet girl to boot, so creeps like Timmy90 and anyone else who would say this nonsense in earnest, not just as part of a badly conceived storyline, oughta lay off.
