Matt Hughes has always been a piece of a shit, long before he started MMA. He was dumb enough to document it in his autobiography. This Amazon review really sums it up for me:

This reminds me a lot of the story that goes around every Super Bowl that women are being illegally trafficked into the city where the game is being held to satisfy the allegedly voracious appetite for sex. You do a little digging and find out, every single time, that it’s bullshit; an urban legend. That’s not to say…

My thought: That padding must stink to high heaven.

I think it really depends on your definition of “friends”. There’s maybe six people that I truly consider to be my friends in my life, the sort of people who deeply know me and that I would help out pretty much no matter the situation. There are other people that I’m friendly with, and some of them are my exes, but I…

You could/should add Jim Irsay, I’m sure he can really bring a clear-headed perspective.

+1 Bowlcut and Panda Express plate

Last person to touch it was the opposing team. It’s only offsides if your teammate passes it to you when you’re in an offsides position.

That’s why the OP said “all but eliminate”.  Sure, stuff like this would continue to happen, but there’s a lot less of an appeal to this sort of thing when you can go to a legal brothel.  You see this in the drug trade too, with the legalization of marijuana increasingly Mexican drug cartels are less powerful and more…

Quite frankly, I don’t think many politicians care about the people they supposedly represent anymore. Democrats got scared, really badly, when Reagan kicked their ass for 8 years (12 really, given the 1 term of George H.W. Bush) and they moved more to the “center left”. What Democrats failed to understand was that…

I’ve been #TexasHard before, had a great time in Dallas if you know what I mean.

He really needed to work on his concentration in training camp.

Nah.  Seattle has gone through tons of booms and busts, Boeing, Microsoft and back in the day the timber industry.  If Amazon fades, something else will come along.

I was playing Guild Wars 2 a few months ago, replaying it with some friends and delving into some of the expansion content.  But you’re right that they haven’t put out many games.

+1 gotta watch your footing

Some geese like to winter at the pond next to my apartment, they are absolutely terrifying and also jerks.

I mean, you can see how freaking big those monsters are when you play Monster Hunter though, since you are a human in the game, it’s not as surprising to see those charts if you play the game(s). You’ve got a pretty good idea of the size of Anjanath when he does this for example:

Overly exuberant estimates of revenue.  They thought they would make enough off of concessions/tickets to pay people.  They were wrong.

I feel like Europe is just waiting for Trump to go away.  They know (or hope) that the American political system is fickle and delicate enough to spit him out like the piece of shit he is, it’s just going to take time.  So in the meantime, they extend the minimum courtesy to Trump and his cronies and wait for the next…

As a millennial, I think it’s more of a health and money thing.  Most Millenials (as countless articles have catalogued) don’t have a lot of spare cash floating around.  Plus with a lot of us focusing more on personal health, we tend to limit our alcoholic beverage consumption.

My guess is that the “breather” was for the kid taking a knee or elbow to the nuts. It happens sometimes in wrestling (and other fighting sports) that someone will accidentally take a blow to the balls, typically the referee gives the competitor time to recover and that amount of time is at the referee’s discretion.  I…
