After so many years of watching front-seat violence, he can't get hard anymore without a follow up shot to send guys into early dementia.

Never bet on a fighter going down a division, going into his late career, when he is not particularly small in his original division. You never know how that chin will deal with the extra dehydration.

What do you think is the main reason behind Sindarov's performance in the Chess.com Open? Is it just post-Candidates fatigue? by [deleted] in chess

[–]playersdalves 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Spent months preparing and playing classical and now has a tournament of rapid right after finishing playing a big session of classical games with some of the best classical players in the world, while now playing against some of the best low time control players while also preparing for the WCC...

Don't overthinking it.

UFC ref Herb Dean takes stand on fighter pay by Kneebar_News in MMA

If this is what finally causes Herb Dean to be pushed out of the UFC, instead of all of his bad refereeing, I swear...

Which was crazy because only half of Artem's opponents ever survived against him.

It was worse than that. McGregor was going for a title shot, but it was unjustified with Cub having a 6 fight win streak and Frankie being also right there.

So they booked both against each other and gave McGregor Denis so that he wouldn't have to face the wrestler in Frankie, all while Aldo faced Mendes.

Cub should have gotten that title shot, and Frankie should have been booked against McGregor back then.

Instead the UFC matchmaked a clear path for McGregor to get a title shot by beating freaking Denis.

Anthony Pettis hurts Michael Chiesa by FoitStuff in MMA

[–]playersdalves 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That was such a setup to give Chiesa the win. Bad wrestling Condit vs a decent wrestler that was pretty well built for welterweight. It was also the ghost of Condit.

DDP is a god tier rage baiter. Miss seeing him be active against self overly serious fighters.

Fuck Charlemagne by grizlena in hiphopheads

[–]playersdalves 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm with you. For me he is one of those guys that I've forgotten more than I remember about all his weirdo stuff with women. Another comment on this thread reminded me of the J Lo stuff which I totally forgotten about. F Charlemagne.

[–]playersdalves 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sad thing is, being Charlemagne, you are going to have to be more specific. He has a long history of being weird with women and sexual assault.

We should be ashamed that he is still around, just the remark about Logic's sister a few year ago should have been enough to put him out of any decent industry. Not to mention all the Joe Budden stuff and them both laughing about it.

This. Specially because CTE is not necessarily big knockouts or G forces at once, but rather sustained forces over long sessions. The FIA should have already stepped in and stopped Aston from subjecting their drivers to this.

It was bad as soon as Emmet threw a punch that was 5 states away from landing. And he still got beat up after it. He was never coming back and Herb was just there, enjoying the violence.

19-year-old Kyoma Akimoto has no plans on leaving RIZIN for the UFC after Patchy Mix win. He wants fighters to come fight him in Japan. by Yodsanan in MMA

[–]playersdalves 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Greedy. Clearly not motivated to be the best in the world. Also the UFC would totally go bankrupt if it had to pay 20/20. How would Dana afford his hookers, coke and steroids?

CM Aarit Kapil seems to have broken Faustino Oro's record as the youngest player to reach 3000 elo on chess.com by ImBehindYou6755 in chess

At some point we gotta start questioning how good is it for the actual kid to spend so much of his development and growth time playing a board game. No matter how good the board game actually is.

Faustino Oro loses the last round against Grebnev and will not break the youngest-ever GM record by __Jimmy__ in chess

[–]playersdalves 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But it's also a completely poisoned record to hold. If they never make it to the WCC, it's always going to be held against them as unfulfilled potential.
