    MMA Comments that Don't Warrant a Thread

    I'm thinking that it's because Matt's dickery has that high school BMOC feel to it. The only thing big about B.J. is his head. I kid, although he does have a huge noggin. Virtual planetoid, has it's own weather system... The thing about Penn is that he seemed to be perfect for Pride's LW division in terms of size. In the UFC he seems to be caught right in the middle of LW and WW. That's not to say that BJ wouldn't rip through most - if not all - of the mid-level 170s but I think that the size differential would eventually get to him. At 155 he could probably dominate, but then again the lightweight division has that "On any given Saturday" feel to it - throw two guys in and either one could win, unless they're nicknamed "Monstah" or "Butters".

    UFC 74

    I think Grove chokes out Cote R2. But of course, to see how well the last time I made a prediction: <--

    UFC 73

    Back to the point, Burlington isn't exactly a hotbed of a town (city?), so why host a UFC event there, y'know?

    Chris Benoit Dead - Toxicology results released

    OK, so I just got home from my softball game, read some of the stuff, and I've only two words to say: Holy shit.

    Burlington? You'd think that one of the (ahem) "clubs" around Pearson would be more to their liking...
  6. Hey guys, Inside Pulse is looking for people to write about Big Brother. Also, On the Lot and Canadian Idol. If you're interested, please PM me. Thanks, and apologies to the TSM guys for the spiel.

    Transformers The Movie

    For some reason I've got a dubbed version of the Japanese TF series that calls him... Billy. From what I've read...some company in Singapore dubbed Headmasters into English...and it sucked. So that could be why. Though a Transformer named Billy would be funny. Maybe they took their cue from the Spike/Buster snafu from the comics.

    Blasts from the Past

    Well, nothing says the 80's like Bonnie Tyler, so... yeah. Nicely done video, but I could've done without the GoBots.

    TUF V: The Thread

    Well, thank goodness Machida stayed true to form, I guess.

    TUF V: The Thread

    I'm gonna have to find a tape because "good fight" and "Machida" are not normally found in the same sentence...

    Blasts from the Past

    Carmen Sandiego was good stuff. I also liked Wishbone. was great. This, by the way, is the point where you realize that I'm old: Electric Company is 70's-tastic On the subject of kids shows, we have to mention And as a bonus. here's Slimecon's Project 131 but you know you loved it. Back to animation, I also used to watch Doraemon (or Ding Dong as he was called in Cantonese). And yes, I watched it in Cantonese.

    I don't know if you could incorporate this somehow, but Bloodsport came out in 1988, has been a staple movie for cable television, and the kumite is a glorified deathmatch. My point is that we've been watching virtual deathmatches before MMA truly existed, so why blame MMA?

    Don't know how many of you are old enough to remember Force Five... - yes, this is where my username comes from. And last but certainly not least... And since I've got a bunch of mecha-based stuff here,

    I just love the gratuitous guitar solo in the middle. Here's another show with a gratuitous guitar solo, although to be honest . Also,

    TUF V: The Thread

    His attitude is, frankly, pretty lousy. He is really talented though, worthy of his nickname. He's also a big fighter at 155, and I'm not just talking about his head. That thing makes Karalexis' bobblehead look normal sized. My main problem with Penn is that he's either gotten lazy or gassed in his last couple of fights, and it's cost him. It could easily happen again. Pulver, as Mr. Peer noted, isn't really a top contender at 155, and truth be told, I think he's better off as a coach/trainer at McMilitech. It's pretty much an Asian neighbourhood where I'm at. Let me put it this way - you could say "Somebody gonna get hurt real bad" at the park and most of the adults would laugh their heads off...

    Well, at least Frank was actually in martial arts prior to Power Rangers. Most of the Power Rangers now are just actors with stunt doubles subbing in for fight scenes. ...I just know, OK? Anyway, I'd have thought he'd be a better fit for the World Combat League, but what do I know?

    TUF V: The Thread

    EHME is what's up with that. He had Ace, I had Okami. North side, near Angus Glen. I didn't know I made my being Asian a secret though? I don't want to see either guy win, really.

    Also, Karo and Manny's primary trainer don't get along (per 5oz of Pain), so Karo apparently won't be cornering either.

    MMA Comments that Don't Warrant a Thread

    I have no idea what it means, but if Dana really hated everything IFL he'd have banned Tompkins and Hordecki from cornering Stout, and Heiron from cornering the unrelated Griffins. He does seem to have some sort of ongoing love-hate feud with Militech though, and probably he doesn't like that a guy who helped tank the comic book industry is one of the IFL cofounders.

    Transformers The Movie

    Probably a lot of dialogue about how they are going to wipe us all from the planet. That we don't know what we are up against and so on. I'd imagine the Transformers on the good side will be chatty, what with the working with the humans and explains exactly what they are up against. Plus if I remember right, wasn't Jazz supposed to be the cool talking one or something? Well, he was voiced by the late Scatman Crothers, so I suppose so, yes.

    Damn cold. Just don't ask me what it was like when the Leafs last won the Cup. I'm not THAT old...

    Transformers The Movie

    Glad to see I'm not the only one who would have liked to have seen Bumblebee dropped into Unicron's acid pit/stomach in the original movie. Unfortunately, by that time, we got Wheelie. Lucky bastard. I don't have anything to play my vinyl on anymore...

    UFC 75

    While we're at it, maybe we should instead call up Dana and tell him to knock it off with the 4 cards in 30 days shit. I know he wants to outdo Vince, but this has gotten to redonkulous territory... In all seriousness, 2 PPVs at a time is a good idea. Maybe we should sticky a rumours and a fantasy booking thread for other stuff? Or is that already the purpose of the "comments that don't warrant a thread" thread? Hey, I'm in my 30s, I'm gonna be a dad in October - my mind gets confused easily, y'know?
