: Settle an argument, if you know anything about wrestling, Mr. David.
: Would you say that Mr. Collins' arguements would constitute a heel (good guy to bad guy) turn because of his over-the-top antics in his insults and counterpoints... or would it constitute a bad-guy to popular-anti-hero turn, because his vitriol is focused at yourself, who... because of the repute of feuding with Kevin, true or not, would be considered a heel on this board?
: Mr. Collins says its a pure bad guy turn, ala... say... Triple H... and I say it's a strict anti-hero babyface turn ala early Steve Austin.
: That being said, foofer-nutter-popper-whill.

I don't know what Mr. Collins was before, so I can't say what he's turned into. If I had to guess, I'd probably go for the latter option, i.e., bad-guy-to-popular-anti-hero. Of course, what that would imply is that the more danger there is of my being seen as something other than a heel, the more desperate Mr. Collins would become...which could be entertaining. Because as the desperation mounts, it will become that much more obvious in his postings.
Geez, it's starting to sound like "Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom," isn't it. Let's wait in the high grass and see what happens...
