re: UFC Qatar (Tsarukyan vs Hooker)

Arman is an extremely talented mixed martial artist but a really unlikeable douche.
What a nice, warm blanket statement. This is hardly "reporting."
When I became old enough to comprehend I was about to get my arse whipped into submission, my dad sat me down and read me the "spare the rod" verse from the bible, and explained why parents have to sometimes spank their children. He told me he was doing it because he cared and that it would make the lesson "stick"

He never gave me more than 5 or 6 licks, but he made them count for damn sure, with a wooden paddle his high school principal had handed down to him upon graduation. When it was over, we went back to normal within a half hour.

Thank you, Dad. The lessons definitely "stuck"
If it's a personal/family matter it's nobody's business. If it's a legal matter we will all know something soon.

Do like Mahomes and pray for the guy.
CFB realized they didn’t want to compete with NFL
Short QB's can succeed if, and only if:

1. They are ELITE processors both pre-snap and post-snap in the dropback passing game.

2. The offense builds in lots of rollouts, perimeter quick game & screen game to counteract interior offensive lineman getting upfield in their throwing lanes.
Not sure how anyone can say Lane hasn’t overachieved at Ole Miss. The playing field is never level and they are far from the bottom of the SEC. He’s beaten a lot of ranked teams and keeps them in the national conversation. I always look at what people like this could do with the nation’s best resources and talent.

Eli Drinkwitz or Lane Kiffin

Next head coach should be one of these two. Both have tons of confidence and run really successful programs. Missouri has done more with less under Drink than anyone in the SEC. Kiffin is as good a playcaller and makes elite adjustments, plus he’s a proven recruiting force.
I called his career arch before he ever played an NFL snap. If you go back and watch his Clemson tape, the scheme always had guys running wide open, and the rushing comparison jumping from college to NFL is not even close unless you're so good at like Lamar or so aware of where the openings against the blitz will be like Mahomes.

He has all-pro traits, but has never been an all-pro QB.
I think the show has been really fun. What it lacks in pure storytelling it's making up for with crazy alien action. Solid 7/10 for me which is just about what I expected.
Taira is probably 2 years away from his prime. I wouldnt be surprised if he gets beat by Moreno or whoever he would meet in a title fight.

I think there a bunch of bangers on the card that just don’t carry any name recognition. It’s an awful card in terms of notoriety.
Paddy would be much larger/longer. He’d have to find a way to get on Ilia’s back or catch a leg. He’s not going to damage Topuria.
Pantoja has leveled up so much. Really solid all around.
Main and Co-Main have me pumped.

Bahamondes is surging fast but Fiziev on home soil will be motivated and he needs it bad.

Cinque Terre

For those who have been. Did you purchase the Cinque Terre Train Card and if so, did you buy online ahead of time or at the train station?

Also, if anyone has any good spots for lunch, dinner or experiences, please share. This board has been a tremendous help for me and it is much appreciated :cheers:

Allen-Vittori is hopefully the first fight of the PPV.

Would be a good one to kickoff the Main Card. If Allen doesn’t win this I’m not sure where his career goes. He might lay the gloves down.
