Let’s face it – every day we are routinely bombarded with questions. When you’re an emerging media company in Nashville, people just want to know what your opinions are on everything. It’s only natural. And, since our duty is to serve the people, well, we have no choice but to be present. That’s the SoBro Way. Also, aren’t mailbags just a barrel of laughs anyway? Welcome to the newest weekly recurring feature up in this bitch: The SoBros Mailbag. As always, hit us with those mailbag questions @SoBrosNetwork on Twitter, email ’em to me anonymously at thesobrosnetwork@gmail.com. And, holy shit, I need to update this terrible intro paragraph that I’ve been using literally ever since I started writing this column…

Question:

Answer:

No, but this reminds me of a story of a friend shared with me years ago. He said that there was a big ol’ lady at his office that would always turn the sink on when she went into the bathroom as if the sound would mask what she was doing to that poor commode. He said the entire office would sit and laugh as she’d go into the bathroom, turn the sink on, and then proceed to light a pack of firecrackers in the toilet bowl.

Question:

Answer:

I’m going with a snail. To me, sleep is going to be the trickiest part of this – I don’t know if I could stay up for a straight 48 hours, so I’d want to build in some cat naps somewhere if I could…just in case. We’re so disproportionate in size that it would take the snail forever to travel a single mile. I think I could build a good enough lead that if I had to, I could stop and doze off for an hour or two at a time just to keep the train rolling….even in my current fatass state.

Question:

Answer:

Absolutely – I have a few friends that I think would hold up pretty well in jail and I would be happy to give them a cut of that $50M in exchange for it.

Question:

Answer:

Man, ain’t that the truth! They were on a hot run there for a bit, but you want to talk about cooling off, that SummerSlam show was essentially boiled down to two “big moments,” neither of which I even really enjoyed. The Gunther-Punk main was awesome – that was my cup of tea, and if the show had gone off the air with fireworks and Punk raising the title, I would’ve been happy with it. Instead, we got a cash-in from a guy that is starting to wear out his welcome in my book – he just has this weird try-hard energy that comes across. I don’t think he needs the Heyman mouth piece and a stable behind him, y’know? He’s elevated past that so it’s just not really clicking for me. Lesnar is Lesnar – I’ll watch the Cena farewell tour, but he doesn’t move the needle for me anymore. I mean, the wrestling was fine, but it felt largely inconsequential. Triple H seems good at booking these “moments” that end a pay-per-view, but he needs to hammer down on the duration of the entire product. Otherwise, I will have no choice but to scroll on my phone watching Tik Toks instead of paying attention to the show.

Keep the questions coming – catch y’all next week!
