Ceasing action on Blogger

For those of you who know me and my weird, possibly a bit OCD, obsession with even numbers (and by even numbers I mean in increments of 5) I have decided now would be a good time (my 30th post) to cease action on this blog and solely use my Wordpress blog. While Blogger has a couple features I will miss, like email and SMS blogging, Wordpress has so many extra features that outweigh email and SMS blogging, which I hardly use anyway. Besides I like my layouts better on Wordpress.

So please if you follow this blog, please continue to follow me on Wordpress. Thanks guys.

The Ultimate Fight US vs UK

So, I decided to check out the UFC's reality TV show, The Ultimate Fight (TUF), on Spike TV because it is the United States vs. United Kingdom. The US team is lead by Dan Henderson and the UK team is lead by Michael Bisping. I like both these fighter and I figured it would be interesting country vs country. The show premiered April 1 with the UK holding elimination fights at Michael Bisping's gym "The Wolfslayer". The fights were good, nothing out of the ordinary happened. It was when the show continued next week where things got interesting.

Episode 2, the following week, started off with a bang. Jason Pierce fanted, but was ok and would continue to fight and win. Another welterweight, Christian Fulgium, was having trouble making weight and did ultimately not end up making weight so was not able to continue on the show. Lightweight fighter, John David Shackleford, was found to have a herpes legion on his forehead and therefore could not compete on the show. This left two fighters, welterweight,Kiel Reid and lightweight, Jason Dent, with no one to fight to get into the house. Well don't worry they wont just into the house, Dana White, brought in two standbys to take these eliminate fighters.

Frankie Lester and Rob Browning were brought in to fight Reid and Dent, respectively. This moved pissed me off, specifically for that Rob Browning, TUF 9 competitor Junnie Browning's little brother. Yeah I know you can't fault Rob for Junnie's idiotic antics and White even said this himself, but Rob would prove everyone correct in the fact that he is exactly like his brother in episode 3.

Epsiode 3, which aired tonight (4/15), gave us a glimpse at the house and the team in it. Of course Junnie, I mean Rob, started drinking and running his mouth and throwing eggs at the other fighters on the basketball, eerily similar to Junnie's antics. EVERYONE, and I mean EVERYONE in the house was pissed off at Rob and rightfully so. People like him do not deserve to be in the house. I am kinda curious if Dana would have thrown him out for his antic if he was able to make it in the house. That's right, luckily Rob got his ass kick by Jason Dent and was eliminated. This is always good because I was torn in whether to keep watching the show if Rob made it into the house. Luckily I can keep watching the show with no qualms.

I am looking forward to this season.

First Offical Game at Citi Field

Unfortunately due to work, I was unable to catch the opening ceremony, and missed most of the game due to 24 (which I am not upset about). Why I am not upset well 1. 24 is the best show on TV, 2. David Wright hit the first Met home run (a 3 run shot) to tie the ball game. Typical Mets I don't watch and they produce.

Unfortunately the Mets were unable to come up with a W, after a 3 base error by Ryan Church in right field, combo'd with a balk by Pedro Feliciano a few batter latter to bring home that go ahead run. Mike Pelfrey didn't help the situation by giving up 5 earned runs in 5 innings pitched. As long as we come back and win the series all will be forgotten, maybe?
