Around SBN: Jerry Sandusky's Wife Tries To Run A Reporter Over

The Hardcore MMA Fan Classification Project

 

I am not a MMA fan. I am in fact a sociology professor from Harvard who has spent the last year researching this peculiar subset of sporting fans known as “Hardcores”. Like Jane Goodall with her chimpanzees, I have immersed myself in your society and taken notes as you formed tribes and threw feces at each other to gain dominance. Certain types of “Hardcore” fans tend to attach themselves to their favorite fighters and I have analyzed their tendencies in the body of this report.

Mass: 80 to 90kg

I love that only one of the observed subsets have mating habits, given I hail from the “Gorgeous Saintus Pierrus” subset of harcores.

Funny read, especially the Brock one. Good post =-)

I think anti canadian’s are winning the poll mister.. It’s a good thing that you’re switching nationalities this November.. :)

It’s deadlocked at 50/50.

Like my stats prof always said, “50% of people are below average.”

Keep firing Assholes!

The Leafs are back!

Your stats prof was wrong. 49% percent of people are below average.

This reminds me a bit of Cage Potato’s recent “What your favourite fighter says about you” article. It was a really funny read.

That was the inspiration. I wanted to take it to a new level.

Keep firing Assholes!

Hmmm...

Looks like I need to change my screen name, avatar, and move West. Unless of course I’m the exception because there has to be one right?
