Been a while since our last podcast - this week on the NBS Podcast we have two guests - two of the NBS Rookies - the Ultimate Utility Player Tony G and the Young Thriller Derek Moss. It's a long one and we cover everything that went on during their rookie years, training at the NBS, and their upcoming matches at November Reign.

This week on the NBS Podcast we have as our guest the promoter of NWA Supreme Dave Cavavos to help Crimefighter and MOAV5706 run down the new NBS 25 for October 2011. Before the rundown however, some unexpected news about NWA Midwest that may break as soon as this weekend, we ask if it's appropriate for an underaged person to wrestle a match and a few other items. Be sure to download this one as it goes 100 minutes in length.

From time to time, enough nonsense happens in the area that our resident Mad Conservative Crimefighter needs to rant to which he demanded that have the entire hour to speak on what all is driving him mad...as such, this episode of the NBS is not sanctioned whatsoever by the executive producer Chris Lee, nor our sports entertainment analyst MOAV5706. The views expressed by the Mad Conservative are solely his own and do not reflect the views of his friends, colleagues, promoters, wrestlers, or anyone else in the United States. This week the Mad Conservative speaks out what happened at the certain promotions in Springfield last month, the sale of GAW, and ridiculousness of blip.tv's policies (the host site for the NBS TV) and the embarrassing exploits of the president of the Access 4 Producers Group (which airs the NBS TV on Thursdays).

This account has hit full...so we are going to switch back to our second account for a while until it fills up. In the meantime check out this week's new NBS podcasts here -

This week it's Chris Lee, Crimefighter and MOAV5706 with the countdown to the 2010 NBS Awards.

Due to the overwhelming responses to this years NBS Awards we had no choice but to move it to a bigger location. The 2010 NBS Awards will now be held on Sunday, March 21, 2010 at the Skywalker International Sports Complex, 400 E. Eldorado Decatur, IL, and hosted by Attitude Inc.: "No Hype" Guy Smith, "The Spotlight" Spencer Powers, and Micheal Shard. Doors will open at 6:30 pm and the award show will begin at 7:00 pm. The nomination process will continue until March 15, 2010. Any and everyone can be apart of this process and is more then welcome to join us at the award ceremony.

The only thing we ask of you is that you give solid reasoning with your nominations. As successful as the last two years events have been, we still find it astonishing that the majority of individuals that participated where not able to give reasons for there nominations. This is the most important step in this whole process. This is your chance to convince us that the individuals you want to nominate deserve the award. Everyone must understand that the number of nominations isn’t important; it’s the quality of the nomination that we consider the most important element. If, by chance, you have a hard time coming up with reasons why someone should be nominated, this is probably a good indication that you might be nominating the wrong person.

This event is for everyone in Central Illinois Pro Wrestling to come together and celebrate everything that is so wonderful about Central Illinois Pro Wrestling. This isn't a time to crap on anyone, throw a fit, or be negative. That doesn't make anyone better. It's time to recognize the best of the best, the individuals that work hard to stand out from the crowd and a time to show everyone that hard work and dedication at any level can be rewarding.

Our goal is to get nomination ballots from everyone involved in Central Illinois Pro Wrestling. So please help spread the word. We have no doubt that all of us working together can make this region the best it can be. We look forward to hearing from all of you. Please copy and repost this any and everywhere you feel necessary.

If you want to be involved and have your voice heard, all you have to do is simply copy and paste the categories from below. You then type in your nominee for each category followed by your reasoning. You then simply send them to us via Myspace message or email us at thenosebleedseats@yahoo.com .
