This BE/MMA Fighting partnership is fantastic. I can’t get enough coverage. So many awesome writers under the SBN banner, then you have MMA Fighting’s E Casey Leydon and Esther Lin who are both fantastic at what they do.
Yeah, I’m a tad drunk. At least I’m a happy drunk. I live this partnership. So many great writers to read under one general roof.

The way they put Tebow in his place was pretty awesome though.

I agree.
I don’t believe in God, but if I did I wouldn’t be foolish enough to pretend I comprehended it. I can’t even get my mind around the scope and size of the universe or why when I walk around New York City during the Pride parade I see a bunch of my ex-girlfriends, let alone an omnipotent divine being.

Listen, man
Who are you to presume what ‘God’ cares about? What do you know? He might love sports where people slam into each other for a minute total until the refs can stop play and give advertisers a sufficient amount of advertising time to explain that, yes, Bud is great, and if you drink our beer some fit girls will paint letters on their fit stomachs and probably, maybe, get drunk enough to go home with you?
The vanity of your post is unbelievable. Who do you think you are? Do you presume to know what God loves? Do you presume to understand that Tebow runs on grass for Mary herself?

or he thinks that being a missionary trying to convert Catholics to a “better” version of Christianity isn’t really all that great.

Gronk has a high ankle sprain. He'll be slower and not as effective.
Unless Belicheck works his “magic” by sneaking into the Giants’ practice session to video record their play calling signals, as he has done many times in the past, they’re going to lose.
I was wondering where I'd seen a nose like Nick Diaz's after all the scarring and smashing its taken
then it came to me. His nose especially the bridge of it, strongly resembles that of the Na’vi race from Avatar

Just found the best Nick quote ever:
He talks about how he got into this dangerous line of work, growing up a Van Damme and a "Rocky" fan: "Aikido and karate when I was in first grade, karate in 4th, 5th, 6th grade," he says. "And then in 7th and 8th grade, (go to the) backyard, drink a 40 and box with the Mexicans."
That's kind of an overgeneralization.
I’m one of the Mexicans and can’t box for shit.
I demand a written apology.

Condit has finisher 39 of 40 opponents, 22 of which were Nick Diaz (or his immediate family members). No amount of AK47s can save you.

In an attempt at some kind of real 'duscussion,' I'll argue
the weigh-in pictures seem to demonstrates the natural differences between fighters in a particular weight class. I don’t presume to be a biologist, but Diaz’s bone mass appears larger, and more emaciated, when he cuts to the welterweight limit.

Dan Stittgen’s 170 lbs to Matt Riddle’s 170lbs is quite the contrast. And yes Henry Martinez isn’t too huge either, but he at least has muscles around his skeleton.
