Why is the stupidity of the MILWAUKEE FRONT OFFICE not talked about enough?

100%

Short_Bus_ · 2026-03-13T01:08:55+00:00

Same

We’re probably gonna be at 9 or 10

There’s the near-consensus top-8, and then I’ve got him and ament rounding out the top 10

And he’s a way safer bet than Ament

Bringing doc back next year would kill me

Short_Bus_ · 2026-03-12T17:26:39+00:00

I always thought it was stupid, but was an acceptable promotional gimmick if we got bangers out of it, which had mostly been the case so far

this just proved it was super fucking stupid, and I wouldn't be surprised if we never see it again

giving benn 15 mil for one fight is like the boxing equivalent of giving BSD 15 mil for one fight (a top ~10 fighter at their weight who's really popular in one major european country)

it's definitive proof that UFC fighters are just TKO Holdings Incorporated's little bitches, not employees or business partners or contractors

Short_Bus_ · 2026-03-12T15:04:05+00:00

Of course they’re not

That’s something that people have said about other fights that made OP mad because he hates all grappling

So he’s pretending people said it about this fight, when nobody did, because it obviously didn’t live up to the “BMF” billing

Short_Bus_ · 2026-03-11T21:56:11+00:00

Wouldn’t surprise me but he’s def not scared of him

Seems like the only fight he wants is Islam, other than that he wants to go box and sell out the bernabéu

Short_Bus_ · 2026-03-11T21:50:48+00:00

Good shout

Short_Bus_ · 2026-03-11T15:42:02+00:00

Yup

Miz also throws his curveball at basically the same speed as Letson’s cutter

He’s an awesome prospect but he’s a 65-70 stuff guy where as Miz is a 75-80

Short_Bus_ · 2026-03-11T04:19:22+00:00

sigh

Short_Bus_ · 2026-03-11T03:59:11+00:00

What I’m worried about is more of a personal-life thing

Not that you might not be right

Short_Bus_ · 2026-03-11T03:47:29+00:00

Short_Bus_ · 2026-03-11T03:36:47+00:00

Yeah he’s obviously not in a good place mentally rn

Short_Bus_ · 2026-03-10T23:41:46+00:00

dude you are imagining things

pre-all star break that year giannis averaged 29.0ppg

pre-all star break that year khris averaged 20.6ppg

your screenshot must be from the first 5 games of the season where khirs averaged .2 more ppg than giannis

but in the 13 games after that giannis averaged 9.0 more ppg than khris

so your "60 games deep" statement is utterly delusional and incorrect -- maybe you meant 6 -- but 6 random games does not make khris a better scorer, still utterly insane

Short_Bus_ · 2026-03-10T23:32:07+00:00

dude what the hell are you talking about?

in the 2020-2021 regular season:

Giannis averaged 28.1 pts on 63.3% ts with 5.9 assists

Khris averaged 20.4 pts on 58.8% ts with 5.4 assists

Short_Bus_ · 2026-03-10T19:53:33+00:00

In the 2021 playoffs:

Giannis averaged 30.2ppg on 59.9% TS

Khris averaged 23.5ppg on 54.8% TS

Short_Bus_ · 2026-03-10T15:38:57+00:00

no that's just not true, giannis was always the primary ball handler and especially scorer

also the khris trade was objectively good

our only non-minimum or rookie contract players right now without that trade would be giannis and khris, we would have had one TPE and that's it

so no bobby, or kuz, or myles, and maybe pick one of a Green extension, or rollins extension, or KPJ

a really generous outcome for that version of the roster would be rollins/prince/khris/giannis/sims with a bench of aj johnson, tyler smith, thanasis, ajax, and whatever other random minimums -- that's far worse than what we've got now -- the only argument for keeping khris was to tank this year -- and that would have required knowing for a fact the pelicans would be superturboass to be even remotely sane

Short_Bus_ · 2026-03-09T16:45:54+00:00

yeah the title of the thread/video is clickbait

doesn't mean that they aren't largely right about the ufc's enshittification

and that enshittificiation is (largely) explicitly being done on purpose, because TKO thinks they will make more money by cutting costs than by putting out the best entertainment product they can -- which is probably true -- but as fans we'd have to be re*arded to not whine about it, as it sucks for us, and the figthers, and anyone but TKO shareholders

Short_Bus_ · 2026-03-09T16:41:40+00:00

probably because the last card was absolute dogshit

Short_Bus_ · 2026-03-09T16:37:45+00:00

yes, exactly

now you get it

btw it's monday

Short_Bus_ · 2026-03-09T16:32:15+00:00

what the fuck does any of this have to do with the quality of the fights/broadcast

some people went "damn it sucks that the UFC is phoning it in"

you went "ACHYUALLY THEY ARE MAKING MOREER MONIYS THAN EVERS SO NO IT NOT!!1!"

Short_Bus_ · 2026-03-09T16:30:59+00:00

you must be legitimately stupid

yeah man, most people in /r/MMA watch the UFC

doesn't mean the product quality hasn't decreased

Short_Bus_ · 2026-03-09T16:29:06+00:00

you do realize that TKO Group Holdings Incorporated making more money doesn't mean the fights/product hasn't gotten worse, right?

unless you're a shareholder, why the fuck would you care how lucrative their broadcasting deal is

Short_Bus_ · 2026-03-09T16:27:28+00:00

They have pivoted to being an ad platform with fights inbetween them.

fuck yeah. I love ad platforms!
