I’ve said it a million times on this site “I love MMA” and to most of you out there on the internets there is only one place to watch MMA, the UFC. For a MMA freak like me, there are plenty of places offering fights but far few put on anything that is even worth my time and definitely my money for PPV. Don’t get me wrong, there are more than a handful of organizations that DO put out good fights and I love supporting the little guys but some people just try to cash in on the “craze” and really make the sport look bad.
One of those up and comers that I respect is Bellator fighting and at their last event I saw a fight finish in a way I have absolutely NEVER seen before. The only video I could find of this actually runs 1:06 and kind of shows how the fight was going up to the point of the mystery move (I will reveal the move after the clip) So with that I ask you readers : Was this luck or skill??? Check the video and let me know.
The move was actually an inverted triangle choke. Most of you have seen a triangle but it is usually applied by the fighter on the bottom of the guard with their victim postured over top of them. This move was sick and definitely original as far as “in fight” goes. Well done Toby Imada and Bellator for putting on a good card.
I know the quality isn’t that great and its not as cool as the MacAskill vid but you HAVE to stick around to the VERY end to see the last trick he pulls off,.it’s pretty amazing. The video shows skater William Spencer doing very unorthodox tricks with and without his skateboard. Spencer seems like quite the unique fellow, as you will see in the first few seconds of the video, constantly yelling at himself (Yes! That’s him yelling at the start) and just the stuff he thinks of doing with the skateboard is…well…pretty unique itself. Check the video out below and MAKE SURE YOU STICK AROUND TILL THE END..AND DON’T SKIP FORWARD…I’M WATCHING!!!

Ladies and Gentleman, introducing a now virus free (online anyway) GOAT…DIESEL!!! My man D.A.G came out of the wilderness and tried a few things for me but like everything in life it was the last resort that solved our problem. At first, we thought it was our versions of Word that needed to be updated but when that didn’t work, I thought I was done for good. So I get an email yesterday that says I need to update my anti-virus and BAAAM like a bottle of penicilin, Norton stopped that burning feeling my got when he tried to perfrom simple tasks…My computer now virus free I am ready to roll. (I can’t believe I made it through all that without a swine flu crack)
Some of you may ask, “How did you post about the playoffs and the Jays, if you computer was ‘broken’ “. And then I’d be all “I know you are but what am I”. (Sorry, I haven’t been on here in a while and I am excited OK) This is something I actually had lined up before my comp went down but never really got to it. We have ghostwriter, who has actually been with us from damn near the start. Sin City (I just made that nickname up) he has posted about 6 stories on here and we are slowly going through the old stories and marking them. That way you all don’t get confused and think I learned how to write actual, entertaining story with structure as opposed to, well, THIS I guess…
Upcoming stories that you can look forward to being disappointed in: Anderson “The Sleep inducing Spider” Silva: What happened and what’s next?, GoatDiesel and Bryan Colangelo Sitting in A Bar…D-R-I-N-K-I-N-G, NHL Mock Draft, NBA Mock Draft, Playoff predictions and much much more….
LET’S GO RANGERS…GAME 7 IN WASHINGTON…ITS ALL YOU!!!

You may have noticed, you may have not? But we have been tweaking a few things here and there visually, posting more videos, live blog and more of a “chat” type atmosphere in the comment section. Although, thats just us high and mighty types who think we know everything. And now we wanna hear from the most important person….ME YOU!!! What do you want to see more of? Less of? Try out for change? Cover more of? We are here to serve you, my people, so let’s hear it!
For example Coletrain insisted, I mean, suggested we get on top of NHL and NBA mock drafts and guess what? I banned him from the site….No just kidding, I am working on them right now. See, ask and you shall receive!
I just want to thank everyone who comes back daily to check us out and drops a line or two in the comment section, without you I feel like I am only writing for myself and my mom and dad. And as cool as my life was from birth to age 23, I could stand to hang out with someone else but those aforementioned for awhile even if it is online (damn it is my life repeating).
Well like I said, leave it in the comment section and I will make it happen. Remember…sports related stuffs only please.
