Why Three-winning Streak Called Three Peak

Does weed mess up ur conditioning?

Smoking pot will cause the same amount of damage to your body as smoking cigarettes. I just cannot get why any athelete would smoke weed. That is stupid. If you want to be a great athlete you must begin by taking care of your body as well as your mind. Pot is for losers and don't be one.

Word that rhyme with mediterranean? OR Greek?

(1) The tougher one is, of course, Mediterranean. That's because the accent is on the THIRD syllable from the end (called the "antepenult" in classical grammar), and any rhyme should match ALL THREE syllables, beginning with the vowel. To clarify -- a perfect end-rhyme must match ALL sounds from the vowel of the accented syllable to the end of the word. (A "near rhyme" --see below-- does not have to exactly match each sound but must take them into account.)

In other words, for a perfect rhyme you need words with the accent on the 'antepenult' and ending with the sound /-anian/

Examples (mostly adjectives for or names for residents of certain nations):
- Albanian, Iranian, Jordanian, Lithuanian, Mauritanian, Panamanian, Romanian, Tanzanian, subterranean

There are also some very usable "near rhymes" in which MOST of the sounds match. Especially good are those whose only difference is the use of an /m/ in place of an /n/ sound (these sounds are very close to each other):

- cranium, geranium, uranium, titanium
- epithalamium (means "wedding song")

Other decent near rhymes:
- radian, circadian, Aracadien
- avian
- stadium, palladium, radium


(2) Greek --

perfect rhymes:
- antique, beak, bleak, cheek, chic, clique, creek, critique, eke, freak, geek, leak, leek, meek, oblique, peak, peek, pique, physique, reek, seek, sheik, shriek, sleek, sneak, speak, streak, teak, technique, unique, weak, week, Zeke

near rhymes:
- beat, cheat, compete, complete, conceit, concrete, Crete, deceit, defeat, discrete, discreet, elite, feet, fleet, heat, meat, meet, neat, peat, Pete, pleat, repeat, replete, seat, sheet, sleet, sweet, teat, treat, tweet, wheat
- beep, cheap, creep, deep, heap, jeep, keep, leap, peep, reap, seep, sheep, sleep, steep, sweep, veep, weep

What makes a wrestler's legacy?

We've seen many wrestlers accomplish many things from defeating big names to becoming World Champions. However, not all wrestlers are remembered. While guys like Ric Flair, Hulk Hogan, Stone Cold, and others will be remembered throughout wrestling history, others will likely be forgotten. Legends like Nick Bockwinkel, Lou Thesz, and other legends likely won't be remembered in the next decades despite some of their accomplishments in the past.

So, what is it that makes a wrestler stand out in history? What is it that will make wrestlers memorable in the future? Is it something you have to accomplish or does it just happen as your career advances? Are wrestlers being forgotten inevitable?

Explanations would be greatly appreciated.
