Special K

My husband and I were ROFL at that pic of Tito in his cell. So freaking funny!!

OMG SU, that gif is freaking hilarious!

StillUnknown - Your Gracie gif had me laughing out loud here at the office.

"The Horror."

I wish they'd shown it on the broadcast.

Sounds like even though Ricky's fight went to a decision (which I know he's totally pissed about), it might have been more entertaining that the Silva fight, lol. I must watch this Silva fight, the curiosity is KILLING me.

It's sad, I used to really like Silva. However, the last fights I've seen him in and hearing about this fight really make me dislike the guy. He seriously needs his clock cleaned. And don't even ask me why I'm hating Silva now... but still love Brock, haha!

Also, Silva knows a lot more about the English language than he and his interpretter lead people to believe.

Such a close fight, man. I say you have to do more to take a belt away but I can't fault Edgar. He executed and the judges saw it. One of them is apparently a fan.

Did BJ half-ass his training for this fight, or what was his deal?

Dang hearing you guys talk about everything makes me sad I missed out on this card! Lol! I want to see want Silva did (or didn't do) in the title fight. I'm going to have to watch this when I get back to the States.

The good news, Ricky Story won his 3rd UFC fight in a row last night!

:ols:

That's hilarious. You have to admit, Dana's pretty freaking funny sometimes.

The time is now for Anderson Silva to just vacate the middle-weight belt and move to Light Heavyweight. He has already proven he can hang at LHW, and right now the Middleweight division is suffering from the same problem as Welterweight and Lightweight, which is that the champion of said divisions are basically in a league of their own, and anytime someone is named #1 contender, it is simply because a "#1 contender" is needed in order to hype the next title fight in said divisions.

This way Anderson Silva actually gets some competative competition, and it allows for his shadow to vanish from a division that desperately needs other fighters to grow and mature and for some other fighters to come out on top.

Doubt that is going to happen any time soon.

All the way from Madagascar, ladies and gents! She can't stay away from MMA!

My husband skyped me the results from this last weekend.

martin kampmann's injury that forced him off the UFC 111:

THAT'S gonna leave a mark, lol.

Yeah, I'd say he's going to have issues with that for the rest of his fighting career.

Our boy Nick Diaz never dissapoints when someone gives him a mic.

I love Diaz. He is such a character. I think we could gather enough content to make a 365-day "Nick Diaz Famous Quotes" calendar

good to see Corey Hill back competing and winning

Wow, he's already back?! It seemed like his injury was only a few months ago, good grief. I'm glad to see him back too.

She's scared she might get a boner rolling w/ women.

somehow i had brock pegged as a nancy pelosi loving liberal

Always good comedy in this thread

neither fighter has any standup, Maynard's face looked pretty bruised up at the end of the fight.

even though he won, i cant see him getting a shot at BJ after that performance. i see edgar getting it for sure now

If he does get BJ, he is going to get killed, lol.

Is that the fighter you guys know?

Yeah. He was in our wedding this past fall.

However, it's not just that, Matt and I were reading through the play-by-play and Lennox got Ricky in a reverse crucifix and Ricky basically picked him up in a fireman's carry and slammed him. I really wanted to see that, lol!

That was a ridiculous armbar by Dunham, I think he broke Escudero's arm.

Escudero needs to learn how to tap. Hopefully this will teach him :doh:

Sidenote: I'm pissed as hell they didn't show Ricky Story's damn fight. :mad:

I'm gonna be at the Fight Night in Fairfax on Monday, I'm pretty excited! We MIGHT have an extra 70 dollar ticket if anyone is interested, our seats are pretty dead center on the side.

Anyone here ever been to a UFC event before? I have no idea what to expect haha.

Have fun, wish I could be there. Do me a favor and cheer as loudly as you can for Ricky Story

I'm pissed I don't get VS on direct tv. I really want to see this card.

Yeah, same situation with my husband and I. We stream it on our laptops though, so it's not a huge deal.

:hysterical:

Okay, here come the Lesnar lovers...

Hewrow...

Just wanted to jump in and give props to SU for all the links. Thanks so much!!!

And to all the other regulars in this thread, Merry Christman, Happy Hanukkah, and Happy New Years. You guys always make this thread fun and intersting...one of the better threads in the ES TG....and a LOT more fun to come here for solid information than wading through the loads of crappy-dappy on Sherdog.

BTW, I was watching the WEC and missed the Strikeforce card but I just saw that Scott Smith got his ass kicked all fight and made another 3rd round KO comeback on Le. I'll have to watch the fights online.

Yeah, it was pretty unbelievable.

Found this NSFW photo of his scene:

http://blogs.creativeloafing.com/dailyloaf/files/2009/11/riley_medium.jpg

The nudity is blocked out but barely.

OMG!!! That's the exact same couch I have!

Speaking of people no one wants to see naked... war machine is doing porn now. Apparently it's old news that I missed that I heard about at a bar last night.

Okay, I hadn't heard this either, so I looked up his wiki page...there is now a warrant out for his arrest (don't know if he's been arrested yet) because he went ape**** at a porn actresses birthday party, attacked a bunch of guests, sent them to the hospital and ran off to hide from the cops. :laugh:

I know people getting hurt isn't really funny, but can we get more random here!?!

Guy needs serious counseling.

My husband just told me about Cyborg possibly posing for Playboy. We got a good laugh over dinner about that. Come on boys, you know you'd love to see that!

I'd find a good independent garage:)

but yes thats about right for a pump,filter and injectors from a dealer

I would be surprised if the injectors were bad,but who knows

added

w/o injectors it is a 3-4 hr job max and while you do want a quality pump,they can be had cheaper than the stealer...err dealership..

Thank-you very much TWA. That's what my husband is pretty much saying too.

From a dealer 5-6 hundred total would be my guess in your area.

I guess it doesn't have a "normal" fuel pump mechanism (according to my dad) and the mechanic called me today and said the pump injector thingy has to be replaced along with the filter...to the tune of approximately 975. AHHHH!!! Does that sound right?

Okay, I have a 1997 Ford Mustang. Over the past month, the stupid car has been dying on me sometimes when I'm idling, or slowing down around a corner. Sometimes it won't start, like it sounds like it's starting, but the engine won't turn over. After about 5-10 minutes of trying, it usually starts back up and goes for a bit, then dies.

I took it to the Ford dealership today (fittingly, the damn thing died on me about 300 yards from the dealership) and the mechanic is thinking it might be a fuel pump issue.

Question for mechanics here: how much should a fuel pump cost approximately? How much labor is required to replace it? Basically, how majorly am I screwed financially with this BS?

Speaking of heavyweights. How long do you think it will take Kimbo to finally climb the ladder. He is basically invincible standing up and has improved his slams and ground game. I think he would give Fedor a good run for his money.

This argument is just absurd on so many levels.

This wouldn't be a bad fight to hold over the fans until Brock can finally fight again and it could potentially answer some questions about both fighters.

Interesting, I'd like to see that match-up.
