Print"Hey Jared (Shaw), you're 60 million dollars in the hole, retard. Get over it.
These idiots pop up and they start throwing all this money around and they think they're going to come out and go head to head and compete with the UFC? It'd be like me starting a fast food joint saying 'I'm going to take down McDonald's'."
-- Dana White

However abrasive this statement may be, he’s got a valid point that others have made in a more eloquent fashion.
Speaking of TUF, the show has its good points, but I get so tired of the same old “get drunk and tear shit up” formula.
I couldn’t believe they had a whole damn pantry/closet full of liquor in that house…smh….I knew they had access to alcohol…but I didn’t know it was like THAT.

I don’t know what I thought, but I couldn’t believe the wall to wall boos thing, either. Maybe I just didn’t think they would be so brash about showing it to the audience, and erasing any doubt about their tactic of using alcohol to increase the drama factor.

It’s a TV show, they need shit like that to make it exciting to keep attracting viewers.
No one is forcing them to drink, they’re all big boys, if they don’t want to drink, they don’t have to.
I’ve always thought the “give them alcohol to provide drama” idea was overrated. The house is still designed to separate the wheat from the chaff, and self-motivation is a key quality toward success in the UFC. Give the fools every ability to shoot themselves in the foot, and most of them will.

He can fall back on the "promoter" title to call people names
It’s like, I’m a graphic designer— but if I spill paint everywhere, I just tell people I’m an artist.
Should have probably included the quote from Shaw that made White go off on his tirade to begin with.
“With this card and this lineup, we hit the mainstream, we hit the hardcore fans and we hit Dana White hard.”

He might be correct, but I’m so sick of Dana White.
"Well if it's gonna be that kinda party, I'm gonna stick my dick in the mashed potatoes."

Except now he’s running the most relevant fight league in MMA and doesn’t seem to have any real competition. Who else are we doing to listen to? That colorful CEO at Sengoku?

Paul Tagliabue THOUGHT this about Vince McMahon but didn't SAY it out loud
‘Nice league you got there. Pity if something should happen to it.’
You all can call me a nuthugger or UFC groupie or whatever, but mark my words, when they carve MMA’s Mount Rushmore, Dana White is on it.
