Same old, same old.

But for some reason, I keep watching this meathead bonanza of a show.

I got high(er) hopes for this one actually

lighter weights means that we at least have the potential of some talented, undiscovered fighters, and Mayhem and Bisping are both great personalities for this sort of thing.

Tatum: I think he's a good man. I like him. I got nothing against him, but I'm definitely gonna make orphans of his children.

Silly string!?!

Those Ultimate Fighterists are truly incorrigible!

I've been crossing my fingers for donkeys for 13 seasons now!

All my prayers are answered

I am so excited about the donkeys.

Would it be in bad taste to.....

Never mind.

Only reason to watch

Is that there will be fights to get into the house (if I remember right). So, actual fighting in the first episode.

I should know better by now, but I can’t help but to get excited for this new season of TUF. Hell, just this trailer was more entertaining than everything in the last season combined. Fingers crossed, hope I won’t be too disappointed again this time.

if there is one problem I have with TUF...

Is its serious lack of barnyard animals. Rampage had the right idea with the chickens, but they are generally excluded from most seasons. Its not right, damnit!

Do what I do

DVR the show. And fast forward through most of it.

The key is to hit the guy in the jaw really hard before the other guy does it to you.

You can’t have a good time without farm animals.
I’m looking forward to this.

I love this show

Yep, it’s the same formula, only the benefit is a new batch of fighters and new coaches every season…and we get to see which ones actually make it to the UFC and have any sort of success and which ones crash and burn completely.

I really hope Mayhem’s team kicks Bisping’s team’s ass…and that Miller pokes fun at Bisping at every turn.

even if they get a minute of face time, the fighters usually get more opportunities than normal.

The thing is

Almost all of them for the last 5 seasons (including the winners) have shown little UFC-level quality.

I respect your opinion even though it's wrong.

i get the feeling this one will be different considering the weight classes.

A lot of FlyW will come out of this as well
