I observed that with the gloves these UFC fighters wear that not many can take a big punch and recover.
Guys like NOG are rare, he takes a punch and just takes it and doesent hurt him. NOG was hit by a truck when he was young and says punches dont hurt him because he was hit by a TRUCK--
I notice that once a fighter is hurt, the opposing fighters can attack and finish them off pretty easily.
The lines in MMA are not set on who is the better fighter but they are set to how the public will react--
Guys like jardine and Couture as favorites is a JOKE because they both have really beaten no one and both cannot take a punch. Once they get hit they fall pretty fast-- I will say though Couture got hurt but NEVER QUIT, it was amazing that he survived the NOG beatings- Randy was not quitting in that fight no way in hell.
Maia showed that he has garbage standup and being trained by Wandy Silva is not a good thing as Maia's fate was pretty much the same as Wandy Silva in most fights. Wandy Silva is the last guy you want to learn stand up from. Wandy's style does not work anymore---
Was it me or wasnt Anderson Silva in the crowd wearing a SUIT but then somehow he was in NOG's corner? Did he take the suit off and then Help NOG?
Nog showed a good chin and good ground skills. His defense is not great, but he can take a punch--
Couture looked so ripped and skinny- there was no way Couture would ever beat LESNAR, they shouldnt even b...

Coming into this season I though it would be a good idea to identify the HOT QB's and teams who we feel are good bets vs the QB's who are not good and Fadeable.
HOT LIST--
BREES- this guy looks like he is playing a video game, there is no QB in this league that delivers a nicer and faster ball than BREES. It seems like he has super control of where guys are going to be. He is the most accurate passer I have ever seen in my life. Saints have weapons and look to be amazing on offense- BREES looks like the best QB i have seen play in this league---
Brady-- He looks pretty good back there throwing the ball. I think he will have a good year and do really well this season- He should put up huge numbers--
Flacco- I think he will be good this season--
Peyton- He should do well as usual--
Rivers- I have a good feeling that he will rip it up this season-
NOT---
Jamarcus Russell- IMO this guy is the worst QB in NFL history, I think he is worse than LEAF, Heath Schuler, jeff George. Basically all you have to do to beat this guy is BLITZ. Saints blitzed him every single team and were leading 38-0- HE is far too slow to throw the ball and is easy to hit cause he is so BIG and slow- He has no clue how to throw the quick reads- he is a deep passer or nothing--
Edwards-- He sucks on Bills end of story--
ELI- I think he will suffer without Burress and he is overrated--
Culpepper- He pretty much will st...

I think Bolt with his legs of a 7 footer and shiftiness of a Santana Moss or a Steve smith-- There is no competition from humans.
As I said there needs to be some good runners who are 6'10 and taller to challenge BOLT. We dont have that yet at this point..
So I am thinking will Bolt race a Horse in a 100 metre race?
Bolt has to start racing animals I think, they could give him a small lead in some cases or make the animal start 10 or 20 metres behind--
Bolt vs a HORSE would be a good race- Bolt is quicker and can run almost 50 km per hour-----If he runs really hard he should be hitting close to 60 kilometres per hour---
THe horse is slower and heavier and picks up speed after a while- I think BOLT can beat a horse--
Other animals were Bolt vs a Rabbit or a Race Dog?
To see how truly fast BOLT is and see if he is TRULY special I believe he has to start racing animals to cement his legacy as the fastest man in the world---
Ben Johnson tried to race the HORSE and lost the race, although Ben Johnson was not fast and was only 5'9 tall and had short legs. Ben almost won but the Horse blew past him around 80 metres and smoked him good.
This will happen at one POINT, Bolt is special and he has to start Racing vs animals who have 4 legs.

I was at the Edmonton Calgary game LIVE where Edmonton won 38-35.. At the airport the BC Lions happened to be there also taking a flight to Toronto where they played on Friday---
I went to Subway and was stuck in the lineup behind some BC players who were buying subs. I was surprised that the players were drinking soft drinks and buying cookies and had little regard for their diets--
I was talking to one player who told me things were going to get UGLY on wednesday night when they arrive in Toronto. He said the players are gonna wanna go out and party in Toronto.
It was clear to me as some BUFFOON from the BC team was dancing in the Subway Lineup like a clown. All he was talking about was picking up some chicks and didnt seem to be focussed on football.
So from that point right there it was clear to me when I passed through security and anotehr BC player was panicking as security was holding him back and he started almost crying trying to get through so he doesent miss the flight---
I knew that these jokers were not going to come out strong In Toronto, which they didnt as they came out FLAT and Toronto held a good lead in the first half of that game--
So on to the Edmonton game where I attended---
Initially I noticed how Edmonton who is scoring lots of points had a stretching coach and was doing proper PRO type stretches..
Calgary was sitting on their side of the field with no stretching coach and no routines. They were stre...

Dana Dana good old Dana really hit the panick button after he could not sign FEDOR--
Understanding that the UFC was embarassed and took a huge blow in their goal for GLOBAL expansion and by shutting down all competitors failed. By signing FEDOR they would have basically killed all competitors with ORTIZ coming along also--
Now the UFC cannot say it has the best fighters in the world, because they dont have the BEST POUND for POUND fighter in the world in FEDOR-- His record speaks for itself--
Now bring on Anderson Silva vs Forrest Griffith? Let's look at this match a little closer-- DANA knows that his Best fighter in the UFC is ANderson SIlva, he is ranked 2nd in the pound for pound rankings and is huge for marketing, next to FEDOR---
So DANA knows a loss by Silva is a disaster to the UFC, and also a lacklustre win is not good either again. He knows that Forrest basically is a feeder for other fighters- Forrest is not really that good- They fixed the first fight vs Quinton jackson to get a Champion from the ULTIMATE fighter SHOW to give it credibilility.
Remember the UFC was at its peak popularity when CHUCK Liddel was champion and Forrest was a great marketing PLOY as he was the average white bar fighter scrappy labourer type of fighter--
Dana approaches FORREST explains to him that he needs him to tank this fight and be cautious and let SILVA win the fight within the first 3 minutes-- This way everyone forgets about FEDOR, which is wh...
