(DISCLAIMER: This editorial may have some jokes for comedic purposes because the author doesn’t believe in writing stuff as a scientific article.

Sometimes the best stories aren’t written, they are witnessed. I say that because here recently the Schmoedown world has seen a couple of amazing stories that didn’t happen on paper – they happened in real life. Peggy Gubbins wanted to be a part of the Schmoedown so bad that she joined the fan leagues to…

The 2021 Movie Trivia Schmoedown season is nearly upon us, and with Free Agency now complete, we have a better look at how the factions will stack up in Season 8.  The 2021 Draft is this Friday, January 29th, and the faction rosters will be filled.  Nine rounds will take place, seven on Friday and…

Some big moves happened in free agency, especially on the Dungeon’s side of things with their big gets. Then we had Finstock doing Finstock things when he acquired JTE on the signing special. But none of these seem to have the controversy that the move the Den made when they grabbed Marisol and immediately traded…

Earlier on in the season, we here at the Let’s Get Ready to Talk Schmoedown Podcast had a valid discussion on the championship belts. Why would anyone want the belt when it seems to only be hurting your faction because you weren’t allowed to join the tournaments? Mike Kalinowski actually made the decision to drop…

After all the big news, I think one thing that is getting pushed out of the top stories is the first number one contender’s match of the year. Jeff Sneider vs Dan Murrell is something that is, to many, a dream come true style of match. Whether it was bad timing or them just barely…

To say that The Den had a disappointing year would be an understatement. The promise of TOM and Paul Preston as a team never developed into match wins, the focus of the Innergeekdom tournament was more on who she chose to put into it instead of the results, and the only person from the faction…

Besides Dan Murrell, Ben Bateman is the biggest question mark in the free agent season, based on the fact that we know he is going somewhere else and how good of a competitor he is. Where he goes will change the course of free agency. Unlike Murrell, who I feel can work with just about…

There are a couple of runs in the Schmoedown that come to mind when you ask the question, “What is the greatest run in history?” Paul Oyama going 6-0 all the way to the belt, the seven in a row that Samm Levine did on his way to a title, and hell, some will even…

Was this the best Schmoedown Spectacular ever? Justin Hamilton believes it is, and I would agree. The eight and a half hour epic broadcast was longer than I had anticipated, but the time was filled with incredible matches and the return of storylines. In a year where everything was derailed by the COVID-19 pandemic, they…
