Just wanted to see if there was any interest on the board here for MJH to talk MMA. Not everyday mind you but once a month special or something. Leading into a big PPV or getting a special guest on. Im a huge fan of MMA and I would love to see them give UFC, Elite XC or some other smaller federation some love. Anyone?

Not here, but if they take your idea please announce it often so I can remember when to change the dial....

I am going to guess not since I don't know what the hell MMA is. If it relates to UFC, then no, I would switch to WIND for that segment.

They dont create interest, they reflect it. There isnt alot of interest in it I dont think.

I don't follow it enough. I do notice some blurring of lines between them and pro wrestling (e.g., "stiffer" matches and MMA-type submission holds.)

To me, its the same argument as bringing a wrestler on. Most have virtually nothing to say. Less so now, insofar as a lot of them work from scripts and can't ad lib.

I understand your concerns. I just think it would be another audience to bring in, and a few sally ass that dont watch it at all or are too scared too can tune out for awhile while they get their nails done. I remember when Chuck Liddell was fighting Rampage Jackson, ESPN as a whole did alot of hyping the fight. With the ESPN mothership behind them Im sure they would have enough power to bring someone like Dana White or Joe Rogan on for 5 or 10 mins talking about the fights in the upcoming PPV. For god sakes it Chicago Sports Radio, I think Dana could spare some time for the 3rd largest marget, especially one that he is trying to get into, and have MMA legalized. Fuck have Jhood host it, it seems like something he would know about. Or Jurko. If you like contact sports check it out thats all I can say.

Hood can bring back Wrestlemaniacs on Mondays like back on The Score. Or he can call it MMAnicas, yeah, that's the ticket.

Mixed Martial Arts is not mainstream enough for the guys to consider. Heck, they were talking very little hockey till halfway through last season. Interest determines exposure and MMA is still not mainstream enough. Personally, I would have no interest. The Cub's are in first place, football training camps will be opening soon and Urlacher is threatening to skip the mandatory camp. The Bulls are in the search for a new coach and will be in the lottery draft, hoping that even with a small percentage of ping pong balls in the hopper, that they wind up with a top pick. No-there is plenty to talk about. That might be something to suggest for a weekend show. There is already a Golf show on weekends. Perhaps they might consider a half hour for something like that on weekends. Contact Adam and suggest it.

This is all a big lie - there is no way that Chris's wife let's his ass go to Buffalo Wild Wings on a Saturday night to watch anything. I call a giant B.S. on this.

They wouldn't talk about it.

The guys will discuss NBA hoops, NASCAR, and soccer before they'd talk about MMA.

I watch MMA pretty religiously, but have no desire for Jurko to break down Uriah Faber's striking ability or Tiny to profess his love for BJ Penn.

My Dear Fiend Chris,
I get it now. You are one of those guys that digs wrestling and that Ultimate Fighting stuff. No wonder your wife has custody of your penis. you are not bothering to use it yourself.
Your Old Pal!
J.A.C.K.

P.S. Chris, do not think that this means that I do not love you. I do, you sweet little eunich you.

Im not sure how me watching MMA has anything to do with my wife, or my penis. But I tell you what, if it makes you happy to be thinking about my penis this late at night, go ahead, just please keep it to yourself.


Your friend

More lies!!!! Knowing Chris' wife like we all do - there is NO WAY she let's him have any beverages near the computer. She paid good money for that Apple IIc, and she plans on getting another 20 years out of it! You may hope to improve your man-rep by telling us you drink beer on a weeknight while browsing our fine forum, but we know the truth! Now - finish your chores!!! Times-a-wastin'!

I never thought Chris in Joliet would get the amount of shit he does, from the comment about whether or not his wife might allow him to go to a remote. It is pretty entertaining though. Chris, don't post for a while and they might move onto another victim. Might....Until then, this stuff is mighty rich.

I knew he was in for it right off the bat. If he was a reader before a poster, he should have known the same.

Thing is I never said if my wife allows me to go to a event. Thats where alot of these illiterate people on the board are wrong. I basically asked if I should take my wife, because I had nobody else to go with. Then its "Oh your a big pussy, you have no balls, etc etc." If have these fucks took 2 mins out of their day to read the posts they would see such. Instead they will continue to act cool by beating down the new guy. Thing is I have always like a good fight.

It could be worse, Chris. At least you're not known as the guy who enjoys fucking dead deer carcasses, so count your lucky stripes that you're just the guy that is pussywhipped by his wife.
