I've Been Burnt

I'm pretty sure I gave a small introductory post about Major League Jerk a couple months ago and never though anything else of it. I figured that blog would last about a week and be a complete train wreck. Well, I was right about the train wreck part, but the blog has been going strong* for like 2 months or something.

Made up of commenters from The Big Lead, MLJ has turned into a fairly comprehensive and sporadically (I'm being generous here.) funny baseball blog. They even do game recaps - so you know they're for real!

Anyway, one of the contributes (and I use that term loosely) "interviewed" me recently. The "Contributer," "clown" (A pretty dumb name as far as internet monikers go, but he's Mexican and clowns are like Gods down there, so he doesn't realize how dumb a name it is. You want to laugh? You should see his real name.)

I'm aware that I just put three words together and trailed off into parenthesis. I can do whatever I want, it's my blog.

And that is the line of thinking that clown used when he posted our "interview." Read it for yourself over at Major League Jerk, a site I don't completely hate.

*strong = sucks

UFC Fight Night: Breaking News

On Saturday, July 19th at 9pm, SpikeTV will broadcast UFC Fight Night 14. The fight will be shown live, from The Pearl at The Palms in Las Vegas. Oh yeah...



... I just found out this afternoon, that I'll be in attendance. That's right - I'm going to Las Vegas.

It will be my first ever trip to Vegas. Hell, it'll be the first time in my life that I go West of Michigan.

I sure hope my flight has a stop-over in Idaho. I want to see all the sites. I mean, I've been a huge fan of potatoes my entire life. Baked. Mashed. You name the pota... Wait a second...

What am I talking about? UFC! Las Vegas! Vegas, baby! Please send money for me to gamble away! Unlike TBL I'm not too proud to take a handout. Now if someone would just explain to me how PayPal works...

I'll be releasing more details as I learn them.

Three things I do know at this point in time:

1. I'll be staying somewhere in this area.

2. I'll be seeing a current UFC Title Holder making his debut in a new weight class.

3. I'll be posting sporadically the entire weekend. Of course, I have no idea what sporadically means. Is a single post with a picture of me outside the hotel and the words "Holy shit, this is awesome!" considered sporadic?

Hopefully, my trip doesn't end up like this.

Dale Earnhardt Is A Big Mo

I was in the grocery store the other day buying groceries to eat. When I was done picking out the groceries that I was going to purchase I made my way to the checkout lines because that's what good upstanding members of society do.

As I was standing there, waiting to put my groceries on the little conveyor belt, something caught my eye. Well, well, well. Look at that shit right there. It's one of my favorite "athletes" of all time, Dale Earnhardt Jr. And he's on a candy bar!

While I'm fairly certain I would have noticed a Dale Jr. candy bar under any other circumstance, the fact that this one said "Big Mo" on it really stood out to me. I can't imagine what anyone involved in this was thinking. I mean, this candy bar is gay.

Forrest Griffin is the New 205 lb Champ! Hell F'n Yeah!

I could hardly enjoy one of the best fights of the year because my stomach was in knots for 25 minutes as Forrest Griffin defeated Quinton "Rampage" Jackson to earn the light heavyweight championship. It was retarded. I need to try to sleep and digest the incredible performance I just witnessed.
Did I mention how fucking excited I am right now? You couldn't ask for a better fight.
