Machida declines the fight with Jon Chicken Bones Jones, Vitor Belfort (???????????) to face Jones at UFC 152...

QUOTE (zenryan @ Aug 23, 2012 -> 09:54 PM) Jones is everything that the UFC doesnt need. He has a boxing mentality. He is already trying to hand pick opponents based off of PPV buys(must be getting a cut) and is now ducking 185 pound fighters. Yep. Never thought id see the day when ufc fighters were allowed to cancel whole ppv's on their own. What happened to dana white's balls as the boss?

QUOTE (CrimsonWeltall @ Aug 23, 2012 -> 01:46 PM) Why the hell would Sonnen deserve a LHW title shot? its not so much that he deserves a title shot, but he was the only one willing to ask to be the replacement, its a fight that pretty much everyone would want to see and it would keep the fans that paid for tickets/airfare/hotels from getting screwed. I miss champions like Matt Hughes that would fight anyone at any time. From Joe Lauzon: "Not only has this screwed over all the fans that bought tickets, non refundable airfare, took off work, made arrangements, etc… but think of all the fighters. Fighters that put in full camps, flew people in that helped them trains, etc. By the time I am actually fight, I spend close to 20k between corners, flights, expenses, coaches, etc… and then to have the whole show cancelled because ONE guy didn't want to fight. This ONE guy that had trained an entire camp, who was the CHAMP and at the top of his weight class, who was going to fight someone who didn't do the camp, and was fighting UP a weight class."

UFC 151 cancelled, Dan Henderson with a slight MCL tear.. Chael Sonnen asks to be the replacement and Jones ducks, i mean declines the fight. Jones will fight Machida at UFC 152 (now 151) in toronto, september 22nd.

QUOTE (kjshoe04 @ Aug 22, 2012 -> 08:06 AM) Unfortunately wont be able to hit Boulder. Going to Denver and Fort Collins for a wedding. I'll be hitting Tour de Fat in Fort Collins for sure though. If you've never been id recommend the buckhorn exchange in denver.. Home of the best damn steak ive ever had, its also a national landmark and a great taste of the old west.

alexeiiiiiiiii

this team has been tough to watch all season, but man its fun to watch giancarlo nail some sick HRs. I really hope he doesnt join the yankees one day.

mlb.tv in general is amazing IMO. I can bring my laptop when im forced to go to my mother in laws house and catch the sox and marlins games at the same exact time. It saves me from having to give Comcast my first born child in order to acquire a decent package that includes Comcast SportsNet.

QUOTE (CanOfCorn @ Aug 20, 2012 -> 11:49 AM) According to ESPN...Shawne Merriman cut by the Bills. Coop'll fix him

QUOTE (greg775 @ Aug 14, 2012 -> 01:24 PM) Ozzie has been as placid as Lake Elizabeth and Marie at 6 a.m. on a to-be-hot summer day since the Castro thing.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Aug 16, 2012 -> 08:08 AM) So Black ops 2 and GTA 5 are coming out this fall/winter. Any intel on here about those 2? I dont think theres been much detail released yet but man this is the best time of year to be a virgin. We've got madden, black ops 2, GTA 5, Borderlands 2, Halo 4, Assassins creed 3, the new fifa, the new NHL, the new nba2k.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Aug 16, 2012 -> 07:18 AM) You sound surprised. This is a stadium where the fans routinely throw piss on the opposing players. I know it was just a friendly in a half-empty stadium, but that was still an awesome win. Hopefully it leads to them winning a WCQ down there sometime in the near future. yep.. and ive seen fans there force themselves to puke in a bucket and then try tossing it at whichever American player is taking the corner kick. People that come to that stadium as a USA fan have major cojones. They might not try to kill each other like they do in select european stadiums, but these guys still make philadelphia sports look like an elton john concert.

http://www.operationsports.com/news/555725...-its-ugly-head/ The only way you can use custom rosters is in a Play Now session. Thats the biggest load of crap ive ever seen from EA. The whole reason I get these football games is so i can enjoy an online dynasty with my friends. Knowing the s***ty track record the roster guys at EA have... ugh...

Im obviously still going to buy Madden because on release day Carter224 is going to force me to like always. But the make or break feature for me is this connected careers thing. It sounds like a cool idea, but it had better be worth not being able to edit rosters AT ALL.

These buehrle vs halladay games go by way too fast

QUOTE (chw42 @ Aug 15, 2012 -> 09:49 AM) Which MLB team wears white socks? preferably the team thats named the white sox i would guess.

Why do the white sox wear black socks with their uniform instead of white socks?

Happy Bday Carl!!!! Were going to Le Olive Garden tonight for some endless pasta bowls, no girls allowed! Happy bday to GoSox too.

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Aug 14, 2012 -> 12:13 PM) I don't think anyone is disputing the strength of the weapon that killed him, it's the seemingly lack of interest the characters had when he died, or the lack of acknowledgment by ANYONE really that he died. No camera close up on his face, no parting words, so sense of relief. It's like Tulisa (or w/e her name was) totally stripped Bane down from a big badass villian to just a regular henchman, and then Catwoman quickly swept him under the rug seconds later. His build up was so great, his tear down was so fast and unimportant seeming. I am batman.. Your argument is invalid

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Aug 13, 2012 -> 02:49 PM) Even this is a better death scene than that lame Bane death scene..... funny thing is you're right. that would've been awesome.

QUOTE (Joxer_Daly @ Aug 13, 2012 -> 11:41 AM) Myself and a pal from Finland tried some earlier this year, as documented here: It was really foul, but not as puke-inducing as I had hoped. Unfortunately, the cameragirl didn't film the 'drinking the liquid from the can' part. It was a very funny evening, though. awesome video, im interested in picking up a can of that now.

so when does the drilling for oil start? #25centspergallon

QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Aug 13, 2012 -> 07:06 AM) Olympic soccer medals: North America 3 Asia 2 South America 1 Europe 0 How about that? it would be a different story if the age limit to participate in the mens olympic soccer tournament wasnt set at 23. Imagine the REAL Spanish team being allowed to participate? Also the tournament in general would be so much more exciting, almost like a mini-world cup.
