According to EBWorld.com's Best-seller list, Smackdown is #3, even though it won't ship until 3/1.

I suppose this means that it would be the #3 seller if every pre-order turns into a sale.

That's a good sign.

wwf / cbs

anyone else think wwf might lost a little edge if it went to cbs? would cbs really allow the 'high trash' factor of ho's and the such.

i am afraid it would clean it up too much. i am sad to admit it, but i think the sleaze factor is what makes it so damn popular.

Brian, I was going to respond to this really cool news about the WWF getting bigger and bigger (top toys for boys in the UK by the way) but the following post from yahoo seems to just hit the mark perfectly so I'll just paste it.

Btw Todd, Smackdown should be an easy #1 in March.

Let's see if I have this straight.

1. WWF is the hottest media property going, with major networks fighting over it.

2. THQI has INTERNET gaming rights to WWF for the next 10 years.

3. THQI is a highly profitable company trading at less than 10X FY00 earnings.

4. 33% of THQI float has been shorted by some moron running a floundering hedge fund.

Oh my God! I've died and gone to Heaven.
