I would not blame Del Rey one bit if when she got back to the hotel that night, she had her own personal "Einhorn is Finkle. Finkle is Einhorn." moment.

Speaking of which, can someone explain to a non-American what laces out means?

Speaking of which, can someone explain to a non-American what laces out means? Pure speculation on my part but I'm assuming that when placekicking, American football players want the laces of the football (which are there for the quarterback to grip when he's throwing) facing outward so that the surface of the ball is uniform for when they kick it and thus will provide better accuracy. If the laces are in, I'm assuming that causes the ball to be less accurate when struck. So in the context of the movie, the belief/excuse of Finkle for why he missed that Super Bowl field goal was that Marino held the ball with the laces in, causing his kick to go wide.

And caused him to create his cozy little shrine of a room. Well.... it was cozy if you're Hannibal Lecter.

I hope we get a Women of Honor match in Charlotte! I plan to be there with 3 or 4 friends.

This is in fact what it means and it was also humorously referenced in the movie Ace Ventura which put it in the minds of many people.

Ace Ventura is what we've been talking about all page man!
By the way from reading the reviews of this show I think it may be the first ROH DVD I buy for this womens match, the title encounter and the main event as they are getting great praise.

I'm a little biased as I've been following ROH more this past year because of the Steenerico feud and Davey Richards, but I do heartily recommend it and cannot wait to own it on DVD. I showed it to my friend who's never seen ROH before but likes his wrestling and he was blown away by it.
Plus you get to see Hermie again! And DP even slipped in a Bossom allusion.

Dave even plugged Diva Dirt, and said he had "a passing interest" in women's wrestling... hmmmm.

You just picked the wrong shows. There have been several solid women's matches in ROH that were given time to develop. Some of them: ... MsChif vs. Daizee Haze (Stylin & Profilin) ... Even though it was involved in the Jimmy Jacobs/Delirious/Daizee Haze angle, the match wasn't affected in a negative way. They got enough time and delivered a good match. The complete show is worth to watch, but it would have been better without Ric Flair.
