  1. How would a NATO invasion of Warsaw Pact go?

    War. War never changes. It would go nuclear very quickly.
  2. Sports What Ifs.

    1) What if the Browns stayed in St. Louis and the Cardinals moved to Baltimore? How does this change the dynamics of expansion? Do the Cubs end up in the NL West with the Baltimore Cardinals now in the NL East? Do the White Sox end up in the AL East? 2) What if the New Orleans Saints were...
  3. WI: Disney Goes Bankrupt in the Late 80s/Early 90s

    Turner purchasing Disney assets becomes pretty interesting for just the butterflies alone. I imagine Disney’s full assets would be broken into pieces. This would obviously butterfly away a merger with Warner. Let someone else deal with that one.
  4. What if the Houston Astros beat the Mets in the 1986 NLCS?

    I honestly don’t think there was much stopping the Mets that season. The Mets had better pitching than the Astros overall that year. Maybe if Ryan had his Game 5 performance in Game 2, who knows what would have happened in Game 7? Your best chance for a Game 7 is for Nolan Ryan to have...
  5. Confederate Victory: When does the Confederacy become a pariah state?

    They always were a pariah state. Britain and France did not bother with recognition/intervention despite the fact that it would check the growing power of the United States.
  6. Wrestling WI: WI Bret Hart retires (temporarily) after Owen Hart's death?

    Bret Hart would be a huge boon for TNA in the early days. Sting would come on schedule and the young promotion would get some decent star power early on. Bret would certainly get treated better in TNA as a way to pay him back for misuse in WCW.
  7. Why Did the Confederate Constitution Have a Single-Term Presidency?

    This is a point that's often missed in discussions. If Britain, France, and the US were the top three, the CS certainly competed for fourth at the time. Germany hadn't unified yet. The interesting part of the Kaiserreich mod is that things actually happen in there as Marx expected. That's...
  8. The Cornette Call: A Pro Wrestling Timeline

    Cue WCW being sold to Vince McMahon on schedule.
  9. Realistic Confederate Victory map?

    The realistic map? It doesn't exist.
  10. What actors/celebrities would you save from an early death and why?

    Randy Rhoads was already mentioned. Today is the anniversary of his death. Stevie Ray Vaughan: At the time of his death, Stevie was at the top of his game. He was only 35 years old when he died, and the world of blues and rock has been much poorer for it. What more could he have done? I...
  11. Dixie Forever: A Timeline

    The attention to butterflies in this world was a good idea. China being influenced by a less centralized nation could prevent China from becoming communist. The destruction of Wahhabism will have major butterflies.
  12. Dixie Forever: A Timeline

    He does seem like the sort of person who would be a Mussolini like figure in this timeline.
  13. If We Didn't Shake Hands, How Would We Greet Each Other?

    Since I am such a metalhead, I like the metal horns (or evil eye) as a form of greeting.
  14. Dixie Forever: A Timeline

    This is interesting in the fact that Colombia was able to escape the war without many consequences. The British look to have kept the Archipelago of San Andres, Providencia, and Santa Catalina. Prohibition is an interesting touch here. It looks like Prohibition will be even less effective...
  15. Dixie Forever: A Timeline

    Since the Allied forces entered Constantinople, does King Constantine I of Greece get crowned Emperor of the Greeks by Patriarch Germanus V in the Hagia Sophia? I could imagine that being supported by Berlin.
  16. AHC: Christian Iran

    Nestorianism can possibly gain traction in Iran simply because the Ephesian Schism left it disconnected from Rome. If Iran becomes Nestorian in the fifth or sixth century, this has a major impact on the dynamic between Constantinople and Ctesiphon. Wars of religion between the two empires...
  17. Dixie Forever: A Timeline

    I would imagine that the UK would have seized Saint Pierre and Miquelon early in the war due to their proximity to Newfoundland very early in the war unless the Monroe Doctrine somehow deterred them from acting. If not, the gloves are off now.
  18. Dixie Forever: A Timeline

    I'm a bit curious as to how the war is going in Africa, Asia, and the Americas.
  19. The Cornette Call: A Pro Wrestling Timeline

    I may be a WCW mark, but I would have wanted to see a better match to end the streak rather than what occurred in OTL. Maybe if Goldberg goes on a tear like it was originally planned, it would be cool.
  20. Rock albums from alternate timelines

    An interesting idea I had from a series of interviews. Killing Is My Business... And Business is Good! Year: 1985 Personnel: Dave Mustaine - Lead and rhythm guitars, vocals Slash - Lead and rhythm guitars David Ellefson - Bass guitar, backing vocals Gars Samuelson - Drums/percussion The...
