Now that football is over and basketball isn't getting in the way, it's time to get back to MMA.
Saturday on "MMA Nation" we'll be talking to David Samuels, writer and author of The Atlantic's "Rampage". We'll talk about the origin of the article, Dana vs. Lorenzo and the ascendancy of MMA. We'll also check in with boxing blogger Scott Christ of BadLeftHook.com. He'll help us breakdown De La Hoya vs. Pacquiao and more.

I'm always stoked for MMA Nation...
Samuels is cool. Scott knows his shit and it will make 2 consecutive MMA Nation appearances for him prior to watching fights that night with us.

Our BE name is important to us. We get to decide how and when we share it and we have to be very careful how we do.

Looking forward to listening to a full two hour show this afternoon! Will be interested to hear your thoughts on the K-1 event and TUF finale if you can squeeze them in between the interviews.

![A little publicity for me today in the Washington City Paper. To wit:
But listening to Kinard, it sounds like management has decided Thomas can transcend his surroundings.
"We thought we’d experiment with some different kinds of shows last year, and of all of them, MMA Nation is the only one that lasted," Kinard says. "I wasn’t aware of anybody else doing [an MMA show]. And [in April] he outperformed our normal weekend ratings by more than double. We started out thinking this has the potential to be a nationally syndicated show, and that’s still our plan. You see MMA all over the place on TV, so why not on the radio?"
I hate to be over the top with the self-promotion, but no one is going to hand me the job and career I'm after. I want to work in MMA full time and the fact is I have to make it happen for myself. Thank you to everyone who has ever shown me an ounce of support towards the pursuit of that dream.
Onward and upward.](http://cdn0.sbnation.com/fan_shot_images/54844/1244671916_m_cheap-1_small.jpg)
