Here's to you, Urban Meyer

By: Harvey

Urban Meyer . . . if you read this, ol' Harv has some advice: eat shit and die.

After all, what else would I say to a guy who made a blatant asshole of himself by taking a reporter (Jeremy Fowler of the Orlando Sentinel) to task for printing a quote from Florida wideout Deonte Thompson that was perceived to be a dig at former Jesus-loving Gator Tim Tebow.

Thompson praised John Brantley, Florida's QB-in-waiting, for being more of a pure pocket passer as opposed to Tebow's "running back who occasionally throws" style of play. Thompson's point seemed to be that it was easier to get in a rhythm with Brantley, since you pretty much know he isn't going to leave the pocket, but in a poor choice of words referred to Brantly as a "real quarterback."

Now, keep in mind that Fowler didn't misquote Thompson -- that has never been an issue. Meyer's problem seems to be that Fowler had the nerve to print such a quote, rather than acting as nothing more than a PR officer for the university, forgetting he ever conducted the interview and saving the dignity of poor, widdle Timmy Tebow.

Well, fuck you Urban Meyer.

The blame for this entire fiasco falls squarely on the head of Thompson, and nobody else. He's the one you should be angry with, yet you're too big of a vagina to discipline one of your own recruits, whose ass you surely had to lovingly lick just to get him on campus.

So instead, you take it out on some reporter who did nothing more than his job. Some poor schlub in the evil media, which is easy to blame for all the world's problems. People love to piss and moan about the media, after all. Plenty of sheeplike dipshits heard this story and immediately took Meyer's side, no doubt.

Maybe Urban should take a longer leave of absence this time and take a long look at what a prick he has become. While he's at it, maybe he should realize that Tim Tebow was NOT a "real quarterback". We'll all figure that one out for sure after some dim-witted NFL club drafts his sorry ass four rounds too soon and can never get any more than a good pre-game prayer out of him.

If I was Fowler, I wouldn't have accepted your apology, either. I would've told you to shove your apology up your fucking ass, then I would've helped you get it up there courtesy of my foot.

Lesnar vs Carwin

By: Guido

It doesn't matter the opponent, Lesnar will still beat him to a bloody pulp.

I don't know what the hell happened to Mir Saturday night but he was shit. that's one of those...hmmm...9 out of 10 times, Mir wins that fight. this just happened to be that one time. I wasn't impressed with Carwin. I was shocked as to how ineffective Mir was. Mir put up a better fight in his loss to Lesnar last summer.

I guess there is the possibility that Mir was training for Lesnar all along with giving a second thought to Carwin. It's just a thought.

I know Cain Velasquez is waiting in the wings for his shot, but i think Dana will have him fight someone in the meantime and that's probably gonna be Mir.

Of all the heavyweights in the UFC, Mir has the best shot at beating Lesnar. Of all the heavyweights in the world...again, Mir. Not Fedor. Not Sylvia. Not Rogers. No one can or will beat Brock Lesnar.

Peppers forces Brown out

By: Guido

With the Bears upgrading at DE with Julius Peppers, Alex Brown is now expendable. The Seahawks have shown interest in Brown but not his lame ass $5 million a year deal.

GSP, of course.

By: Guido

As predicted, GSP rolled through Dan Hardy, who failed to land anything. Clearly Hardy wasn't the right choice of opponent for Georges. I do have to give Hardy credit for not tapping when GSP had him in an arm bar and when GSP had a nasty ass kimura on him. That was crazy and made the fight entertaining for some of the 25 minutes. But, in the end, Hardy just wasn't up to GSP's level. It goes to show that you can shit talk all you want but isn't not gonna make up for lack of skill or lack of preparation.

So who's next for Georges? My thinking is former Purdue wrestling captain Jon Fitch(22-3-3). Fitch has dominated every opponent he's had in the UFC which has lead to an impressive record of 12 wins and 1 loss under UFC contract. That one loss came at the hands of GSP at UFC 87. GSP won the fight easily with Fitch by unanimous decision(50-43, 50-44, 50-44).

What Dana White wants is for Fitch to fight his teammate, Josh Koscheck, to determine the number one contender for GSP. When asked after UFC 111, Fitch replied, "I wouldn't be open to that."

Dana White's thoughts, “He doesn’t want the title shot that bad then.”

Apparently Thiago Alves and Paul Daley are also in the mix. Alves last fight was a loss to GSP at UFC 100. Paul Daley has the same game as Dan Hardy and they are both loud mouth Brits. Daley beat Dustin Hazelett by KO at UFC 108 and will face Josh Koscheck at UFC 113: Machida vs Shogun 2.
