Ugh, deadspin
The commentary there is atrocious. It’s full of people trying to one up each other with obscure sports references while trying to “discuss” the article
LOL, this is EXACTLY what Deadspin is.

A well written article,
though I think it downplays TUF by just referring to it as a reality show instead of a lengthy UFC Tryout. TUF isn’t so much a reality show Kimbo’s falling stardom is clinging to, it’s more of a chance to gain some respect back, the right way.
TUF is a reality show culminating in a very brief UFC tryout
Fighting a dozen-odd bouts in various low-level organizations for a couple of years is a lengthy UFC tryout.
It ends in an armbar or a strangle regardless.
