I just got paid extra to do, literally, 90% less work.

Tyson Fury won.

Look into the heads up matches on DK. You don't have to hit some hail mary card to win. You only have to be smarter than one other idiot. They're definitely P4P better than the large fields, but easier to beat.

I've been waiting for 4 years to make that ****ing quip, the ****** beat me to it by two posts.

Nah, edited. Too soon. Unfortunate he died young.

Bellator is winning the math game in a HUGE way. The UFC is definitely putting their money where their mouth is as far as the best fighters, but Bellator realized that they can get a shit-ton of eyeballs at a fraction of the cost by putting on weird freak-show fights and not giving much of a **** about the athletic meritocracy of it all... and the strategy is paying off. Bellator 145 beat the last UFC Fight Night, WITH Hendo and Belfort as the main. http://www.bjpenn.com/mmanews/bellator-145-beats-ufc-fn-sao-paulo-in-viewership/ If you want the MMA demo and can get 1.5 million eyeba

The comparison pic is Lazy, uncut Jones between fights with Now-Jones who is all cut up, preparing for his comeback. This is what he actually looks like at weigh-ins, which is a more apt comparison. Also, if he's bulking, the larger question is can he even still make 205? I think he wins the HW crown easily if he wants, but chatter is it that he was struggling to make 205 and HW was inevitable, much like a move-up is inevitable with McGregor.

Hewing small logs for a chair with copper and cast iron accouterments (which I also have to make). I really hate that 'rustic old-West'y cowboy cabin' look. I'm tempted to shoot a coat of bright pink paint over the whole ****ing thing when its done and just ship it like that. Its for a semi-celebrity, so I'm sure they can be persuaded its all just art and its supposed to be that way.

Holy ****, anyone reading about this WBC shakedown of Miguel Cotto in advance of his fight with Canelo?

She had no idea what to do when she encountered someone who wasn't afraid of her and skilled enough to dish it back. I do believe (one hundred percent) that what we saw there was an emotional crumbling, more than a physical one. Women are all emotionally unstable. Her fight game amounted to being the bully. What do bullies always do when they pick on that guy who they estimated wrong? I think she can take it back, but she's going to have to get her mind right. Taverdyan is a ham-and-egger. He just filed bankruptcy claiming that he had no assets and hadn't filed taxes, ever. Avoiding Fe

Here's an example of how much of a 'strategic thinker' Tarverdyan is. http://www.bloodyelb...nkrupt-ufc-news

Its entirely possible that bourbon manufacturers realized that there was a consumer surplus and they were leaving cash on the table relative to what their dumber customers were willing to pay (watch and guitar manufacturers realized this, too), but the 'scarcity' factor is horseshit. It may never be cheap again but the mania we're seeing is classic greater-fool stuff and as sure as the sun rises, there will be a time when people look back on it and chuckle.

The have zero performance record, other than stumbling into Rousey before she was famous. Name one "high level" guy who has trained there that isn't an Armenian (and excluding Travis Browne who was chasing Rousey's ass, as evidenced by that outcome)?

The hype train before this fight was the worst I have ever seen. RONDA ROUSEY ISN'T A ONCE IN A LIFETIME FIGHTER, SHE IS A ONCE EVER FIGHTER! Stuff like this: https://www.reddit.c..._drinking_game/ I am tempted (and just may yet) to make a video that rounds up all the hype material, all the chatter, all the UFC promo's, some of the choicer Reddit and forum posts, and put them in video format with some amusing editing. Dana White is ****ing despondent. Rousey was the biggest thing they ever had. Look at his humbled, 1000 yard stare as he addresses 'making this fight' in such a way th

The same went for Starting Lineup figurines in the early 90's. This is not sustainable. It takes nothing- N--O--T--H--I--N--G - for most any of these breweries to double, triple production capacity. Bourbon is straight commodity product. Overproduction will occur shortly, once the people apt to horde have gotten their fill and the panic subsides. Then, things return to a sane equilibrium. Classic 'greater fool' market.

Literally, I have no idea what you just said there. Her coach is shit because he's way, way low level relative to what Holm gets in a place like J-W and Rousey's involvement with him is some pre-fame loyalty thing, not a deliberate decision to find the best camp. His involvement in the fight game seems to be some kind of ethnocentric thing with Armenian fighters, not as a high caliber operator. Rousey is his meal ticket. He is nothing without her. She only gets better without him. Did her mother say something like this? Because if so, her mother is correct.

This bourbon thing has Beanie Baby elements to it. Has it entered the 'full ego' phase yet where the uber-desirable brand/vintage has been crowned and the dumbest participants are hysterical in driving up the price to get (whatever that is)? Because that's when you know the pain is just around the corner... http://www.wsj.com/a...rrel-1418004595 Seems bourbon makers learned a lesson from the ammo market. Noting drives buying and hording like artificial scarcity.

Holm looked better last night than she ever has. I wonder if she'll be a dog in the rematch, because her performance was dominant. Ronda Rousey's attachment to those low rent Armenians must end. The stakes are just too high. Shit tier training and terrible, terrible strategy just cost her seven, maybe even eight figures. You stay loyal to your town doctor when you have the flu. You go to the best when you have cancer. She isn't fighting the toughest girl in the Zumba class anymore. She's taking on the very best of all comers. She needs a better team. Deep down, I think she knew she ha

Whittaker decision'd Hall. I'm not watching the fight so I'd be interested so see how it went down. That Noke front kick was the nastiest body kick I've seen in a while.

Perosh needs to retire worse than anyone in the UFC. He has aged out of competitive viability. He looked too old out there.

I am awaiting confirmation that my shoe guy is OK.

Bad news: at least 60 possible really good suit tailors reported dead with the toll expected to rise.

Now you're cooking with gas. I've found a less invasive method is to pretend like I'm adding something up and ask them to answer a simple calculation for me. "Hey, I suck at math. What is 28 X 3?" A man capable of making a proper suit can answer that within 2 seconds. Anything less, you may as well have your suit sewn up with twine strung through a cobra fang by a 9 year old in Bombay.
