Sports - 25 June 2007

When Raw came on tonight, it showed a picture of Chris Benoit. My first reaction is "Oh my God". He was only 40 years old. Then there was Vince McMahon stating that there would be a three hour special tribute to the life and career of the Rabid Wolverine. What made me mad is that McMahon tried to fake hie death. Benoit was supposed to face CM Punk in the finals to crown a new ECW World Champion, which was vacated as a result of Bobby Lashley being drafted to Raw. Benoit pulled out of the match because of "personal reasons". Benoit, his wife Nancy, and their seven-year-old son Daniel were found this morning in their suburban home in Atlanta. Police are treating this as a murder-suicide until the results of the autopsy. I feel Benoit should be remembered as a great wrestler, friend, husband, and father. Winning the World Heavyweight Championship was the best part of his career. What are your opinions about Chris Benoit? He will be sorely missed. Thank you, Chris

We will never know if Len Bias would have played for
the Celtics, if Lakers would have lost to them in the
NBA finals, and if Celtics would have had more titles
than the Bulls. Had he played against Jordan, if
Bulls could win the titles they did. For me it was the
saddest thing I have seen in Basketball. It still seems
unreal that he never played in the NBA.

Here is a few clips of him in action:

As I understand it, when an infield fly is called by the umpire, the batter is out and the runners can advance at their own risk. My question is...at what point can the base runners leave the base? Do they have to wait until the fielder catches or drops the ball since the batter is already out automatically or can they tag up and attempt to advance immediately after the infield fly rule is declared?

Per my other question "Don't Judge" I just want to say I'm not saying that he did it, and I'm not saying that he did it. I'm saying we ALL will know for sure tomorrow. So until then I'm staying hes neither guilty or innocent

Fans can call the Slam Zone's Chris Benoit Memorial line at (214) 615-6044 ext 2309.

There is no charge to call though long distance charges may apply. After the initial introduction, there will be two beeps, then you can record up to five minutes your memories, tributes, etc of Chris Benoit.

Various recordings will be selected for play during the Memorial show this Saturday, June 30th.

Regardless if he is or is not guilty (nothing has been determined officially yet and the autopsies haven't even started) Chris Benoit gave us 20 years of the best wrestling entertainment possible from one talent. He was the most gifted and technically capable wrestling entertainer in the industry, and deeply and positively affected and influenced two generations of fans and wrestlers.

he deserves to have that memorialized, despite any weakness that overwhelmed him. That weakness simply shows us we are all human and fallible.

No money is being made from this

I am really mad that people are thinking that he killed his son and wife. I wish people would wait and see what actually happened! Please tell me if you are also mad that people automatically think he did it.

I mean its even more intriquing than the fake vince one...Did Benoit commit the murders or was it another family member..Or could it have been someone from Benoits past..

I know wrestlers come and go but their whole family??? They say it was a possible murder-suicide.

What do you guys think? Could it also be that he is part of some "bad company" or some not so legit dealings? You know -- involved with those kinds of people who decide to off you when you want out or when you couldn't fulfill your end of the bargain.

there are too many people on here bashing benoit for what happened before any real evidence has been presented. its making me sick. yes it's more then likely that he did something really terrible here, but i have seen cases where a person was holding a bloody knife and it turned out they were innocent. you can't be sure until evidence is giving. why attack a dead man without knowing anything. if the authorities don't know then neither do you. so please please please shut the hell up. yes they believe it was a double murder. homicide - but they haven't announced it was him who did it. it could have been anyone. not to mention the evidence is still raw and details change easily this early in an investigation. they could simply find out tomorrow that they were wrong and he didnt do anything. i'm not saying he is innocent. but please wait until we know all details for sure before you say some this harsh crap I am hearing. lets all leave it alone for tonight and wait for more info tomorrow.

What made him do this also? I think he wanted to be like Eddie and die like him. The day before becoming a World Champ he never was before and Chris had almost every belt but the wwe champ that Eddie had!




Give me your opnion PLEASE!

anyone notice how people saying he was quiet guy..kept to himself alot..and demanded respect..and wanted respect..so if you really think about quiet people do tend to do things like killing themselves or there loved ones..

(Virginia tech)..example..911 example..but im not saying benoit is that extreme..but key word is "Quiet"..

very intense guy in the ring..but maybe that was also coming from his personal problems too..alotta things bottle up..the ring was his stone..

if anyone notice chris benoit in matches..u didnt know alot about him other than what he did in wrestling...

but its hard to swallow and believe killing his wife and "son"..geesh your son..but than again it can happen to anyone..

i hope it wasnt this..but..most likely gonna end up something terrible..

people in texas killed and drowned there kids..so..yeah anything goes

Even soulless McMahon has to feel a little guilty about faking his death now that Benoit has offed himself.

If Benoit really murdered them, Why would he murder them, travel to Houston for the pay per view, then leave right before showtime, go back to Atlanta and commit suicide? If he did it, why didnt he commit suicide after he first did it?
