  1. Don Frye once talked about his days fighting tournament style and how the third fight is what really separated the men from the boys. One of the more interesting aspects of 3 Fights A Night tournament style is that it hugely emphasizes a certain sort of character and ridiculous toughness that one-fight-every-5-months stuff does not. I realize Bellator was only 2, but its telling.
  2. What's more annoying: the announcer or Ortiz's self-unaware, delusional egoism?
  3. See, that's what I'm saying. Mcgeary was clearly WAY better standing (Ortiz was almost embarrassing) and has great subs (and proved it) but who took him at -1000 wasn't sweating balls in that R1 when Ortiz was GnP'ing him and winning? Run that 10 times, I think Ortiz gets the boring decision at least once. Maybe.
  4. As the most irrationally mythologized and ridiculously overrated fighter of all time, he's smart to go fight in Japan.
  5. Beyond annoying. Its just ****ing terrible. Intolerable. So bad, I actually signed up for a Twooter solely to twoot at Bellator, just how heinously bad this walkout announcer is.
  6. He's definitely going to get his ass beat.
  7. He's around -1000. Zero Point Zero chance I'd take him with a line like that against someone like Tito Ortiz. Does McGeary win? Yes. He's a UFC caliber fighter and Ortiz is a decade past his sell-by date, but Ortiz is also a very experienced old wrestler and we saw with Newton, McGeary isn't quite as magical against better guys. Does it take ten parallel universe fights before Ortiz beats wrestle****s McGeary one time to a win? I don't think it does. I think Phil Davis is safer money around -400.
  8. Clay Guida fight added to FN77 on Nov 7th.
  9. Yeah, he claims he wants to come back but is hesitant. He's probably injury-spooked and won't ever fight the same again, which means he may as well try to make manager of the mine because his fighting career is over.
  10. After 5 consecutive wins and being offered a title shot immediately before going inactive, TJ Grant is now working in fertilizer mines in Canada to get by. Much respect for him doing whatever he needs to do to feed his family, but he needs an agent. Bad.
  11. aaaaaaaand, yeah. http://www.nytimes.com/2015/09/17/sports/football/draftkings-fanduel-fantasy-sports-games.html?partner=rss&emc=rss
  12. You know what annoys the **** out of me? That McMaster Carr charges $20 for a ****ing Acme threaded coupling nut. http://www.mcmaster.com/#general-purpose-acme-nuts/=yxzr6g I figure since you all keep talking about this bourbon horseshit, I'll talk about fabrication stuff that nobody is interested in, either.
  13. I wonder how long it takes for some half-retarded congressman's son to lose his quarterly trust fund dividend ape-shoving NFL games on DK before fantasy sports has a black friday.
  14. NFL refs should all be required to take public speaking classes or, conversely, public speaking classes should show videos of NFL refs announcing a call as what not to do. What makes football great isn't the athleticism or the strategy. Its the total accountability. Everything anyone does will be recorded and is subject to review. Any call a ref makes, he has to stand in front of 35,000 people and tell them to their faces.
  15. They clearly share a common ancestry.
  16. What are 6's? Some kind of car stereo speaker?
  17. Stanford is requiring Malala Yousafzai to take the SATs before being considered for entrance.
  18. They are terrible, terrible players. Bet if you have it, check if you don't, check if you aren't sure... so, in short order I start taking all the pots. They realize what's going on, one time I got snap-check-raised AI (like, he checked, I bet 3/4 the pot, then he violently- and instantly- shoved all his chips into the pot and said ALL IN, as if I was somehow obligated to call. Insta-mucked, he turned over a jack high diamond flush and everyone patted him on the back for winning a pot) but for the most part, it was straight forward theft all night. I could not get tied up with Mr 10K for t
  19. Its lame to use the wisdom and hindsight of age to mock the inherent insecurity of younger guys. We were all there once. The only good thing about your 30's is that cracking 20 year old women becomes like a 4 piece toddler puzzle whereas in your 20s, they were a 10,000 piece jigsaw puzzle but enjoy it because they have no interest in you at all once you start pushing 40.
  20. I just got done playing a $5 ante game of NL 5CD against dot Indians who all teamed up against me. One of them was 10k deep.
  21. I'm not in Illinois right now. Besides. You're some kind of a fed.
  22. That dog totally doesn't hunt. I am more capable of taking care of shit than anyone they might send, however society has delegated certain authorities to them NOT because their 5 months in the community college selects for a special breed of man, but because its how civilized societies roll. They absolutely, positively draw from the douchebag authoritarian archetype. Save for jews, queers and hipsters, the reason adult men might call the cops is because we've been disempowered to handle our own business (on matters that don't involve life or death). If there is someone breaking into my ca
  23. Like anyone on here wouldn't sing like a ****ing canary when the first rookie detective told them that they're "... facing some hard time here, but we might be able to prevent that if..." http://www.crazydaysandnights.net/2012/03/four-for-friday-the-tutor.html
  24. Dan Schneider (Dennis from Head of the Class) is known for being one of the most aggressive underage-girl-****ers in Hollywood. Apparently his entire stable at Nickelodeon (where he currently produces tween shows) is nothing more than an exploitation vehicle, there's strong rumors he fathered Jamie Lynn Spears baby. Read the anonymous comments on the CDAN blog about him. Not kidding.
  25. You think that's bad... the Chicago Public Library checks out passes to the various museums to any city resident. I've thrown that out as a snide remark before, mainly when blacks are being loud ("NICE TO SEE THE FREE ART INSTITUTE PASSES FROM THE SOUTH SHORE BRANCH ARE BEING PUT TO GOOD USE...") If blacks should be totally forbidden from one place, its museums. Its just so pointless for them to even be in there. At least in movie theaters they only annoy other retards.
