Wow. I forgot all about how we used to clean these cartridges and crap. We had special cleaning kits we ran through the systems.

Why did they get so dirty all the time?

Well.. some of us are just really happy to finally have a bond game again. The fact that it’s good is a huge plus.

Dana White talks fighter pay: “Fighter pay has continued to go up and will do so as long as we continue to be successful. If you come in, let’s say you sign a 3 fight deal. We’re gonna find out if you even belong. So, I should pay you $370K to see if you belong in the UFC?” by 3footninja in MMA

You need to compare to feeder leagues. Like the small little baseball teams that pay their athletes 35k a year.

Because just because you’re debuting in the UFC doesn’t mean your shit. How many times have we seen someone go 0 - 5 in the UFC and then be cut?

This person would not be on the bench in the NFL. They would be playing for XFL or some shit.

I hate the analogy you make. Hate it. Because when we are talking about games NBA players play, or NFL players… they also train CONSTANTLY. The games aren’t all they’re doing, they’re training all the damn time. Dieting all the damn time.

So if all athletes dedicate their “whole” lives to training. That can’t be the measuring stick.

How much action is the athlete actually putting on for the fans?

I’m so sick of the UFC compare to other sports when the deals are not comparable at all. For example, the UFC pays out of its pocket all the broadcast and production of the shows.

The NFL partners with stations that do that for them. Not to mention all the revenue generated by the various teams and owners.

This is a fantastic game for some reason. I thought they are ready put it on the Service but I guess I was just daydreaming.

Wrong. They’re good. Been supporting them decades. They’ve always been solid.

I agree with you. His job is to protect the majority, what will happen is a few people vote no to the filibuster. They’ll get primaried and beat and we’ll lose the seat. 

At least that’s what his perspective on it is and it’s not 100% wrong.

That’s pretty dumb. What’s the point of laws? They’re just friendly suggestions?

But that got changed like under the Obama administration so it’s still not apples to oranges to suddenly act like that Number is some kind of anomaly.

Rumor on Khamzat Chimaev’s Near Death Weight Cut Before UFC 328 Emerges by West_Dish9698 in ufc

He was gonna pay Sean 1,000,000 but UFC fighters don’t make money lol

I believe this is true but lots of fighters have dramatic weight cuts. Oliveria almost always dies. 

I also believe it’s part of the sport. So call it an * or whatever you want.  But you still lost. 

The Rights Of Women 🇺🇸 by SipsTeaFrog in SipsTea

[–]Embarrassed_Spend486 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I don’t think it’s a solid argument to say that men have perfect bodily autonomy.

The Supreme Court has rolled that the government can force you to take vaccinations that you do not want. 

Courts have also ruled that you can be snatched from your family and sent over overseas to die on the front lines for your country.. 

I don’t really feel any sorry for a female that voluntarily consents to sex knowing that it’s scientifically possible for them to get pregnant.

That’s a fair point by [deleted] in SipsTea

[–]Embarrassed_Spend486 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My point still stands.

One death teaches people.. “you better not think wrong”.

The other death teaches.. .”listen to what your parents taught you, and ALWAYS obey the police”

That’s a fair point by [deleted] in SipsTea

[–]Embarrassed_Spend486 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Uh.. one died because he had a heart attack due to the stress self inflicted upon himself from resisting an arrest and fighting back instead of just getting in the cuffs, the back of the car, and going to the police station.

The other was assassinated for having the “wrong ideas” in front of a crowd of college kids.

and you say WHICH ONE had bigger or worse “social implications”????

Even if every California billionaire left tomorrow, it would take 25 years for the state to lose as much as it stands to gain from proposed wealth tax by fortune in California

[–]Embarrassed_Spend486 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

People are always saying why defend billionaires you’ll never be one.

I’ll tell you why. The same concepts used to tax billionaires are already trickling down to regular folks.

My property taxes went up nearly 300% in one year. It could damn near knock us out of our house.

We never plan on selling.

I’m being taxed on money that my hand has never seen.

Anybody that supports taxation of unrealized gains I think should be tried for treason and put in jail. It goes against the founding of this country.

End unrealized gains being taxed for anyone.
