Into the new year
By: Clay
Last year Sports Jerks performed like we had borrowed some PED's from Ryan Braun. Then September came and we let Caleb Hanie run the blog. Big mistake.
I can't promise 2012 will be any better but I sure can say that it wont be any worse. I have some new cards to post, takes on the baseball offseason, Pujols, the Bears, the Blackhawks and of course UFC.
So here's to Clay Guida and Chael Sonnen title shots, the Cubs continued rebuilding, the Pujols effect on STL, a successful Bears draft and a Blackhawks Stanley Cup. .

Chael Sonnen Returns at UFC 136
By: Clay
The opponent has changed but the location remains the same. Rather than fight Lyoto Machida as reported by Fighters Only Magazine, Sonnen will now face middleweight Brian Stann to determine the next challenger for the UFC middleweight title. At some point, one must mention that Stann is an ex-marine. And we will undoubtedly hear Stann talk about it and the UFC promote it leading up to the fight. So, there is our mentioning of it. No more.
During an interview with Ariel Helwani of AOL, Chael stated, "...there's a karate guy at 205 pounds, I might stop there on my way back to 185 pounds...". This deal was almost done when apparently the UFC scrapped it and just decided to go with a number one contender match at middleweight.
Either way, it works for me and I look forward to seeing Chael give a beating to ol' Hero Boy Brian Stann.

Jake Shields Training with Chael Sonnen, Matt Lindland
Goddamn, that's a mean look from Chael. Did the photographer say "money laundering" as he snapped the photo. If he did, he probably got an ass beating from Chael's evil doppelganger.

25 of the Greatest UFC disses ever
By: Clay
Honestly, you could do this whole clip with just Chael Sonnen. And then at the end of the clip, Koscheck just sounds like a moron.

More From the Wacky World of Chael Sonnen
By: Clay
This Chael Sonnen excerpt is taken from Fighters Only. Bring the pain, Chael!
"I happen to know, from one of my very highly-placed sources at the UFC, that Michael Bisping's 'goodwill account' is seriously overdrawn with the company. He's on very thin ice wearing really sharp skates, if you know what I mean. So, there are only TWO possible outcomes for him: He can fight me, or he can get released," Sonnen stated.
"He needs to fight me to keep his job. But...and this is a big but...I don't have to fight Michael Bisping to keep my job. If I decide not to fight him, they'll set me up with some other contender I can ridicule, then pound into fine powder. But Bisping's got me, or he's gone. I hold the "whip hand" in this deal; so if he wants to feed his family without going on the 'dole', he better apologize."
"Spitting on Jorge Rivera's cornermen brought disgrace to himself, to the sport, and to all fighters, me included. That's why, first and foremost, Michael Bisping owes me an apology," Sonnen said.
"Once he agrees to do that, I'll decide what form his apology should take. I may want a singing apology. I may want him to choreograph and perform a little "apology dance". I may make him kiss my ring like I'm the Pope, or kneel before me like I'm the King and he's being knighted. I'm not sure what I'll decide on...but he does owe me an apology."
God damn that Chael Sonnen is one crazy rascal. If there's one guy who knows how to sell a fight, it's The Rock. But if there's another guy, it's Chael Sonnen. If this fight does happen, it could possibly be a middleweight title contenders match.

Chael Sonnen Ready to Fight, Bisping/Rivera
By: Clay
Finally Chael Sonnen is free to fight after serving a six-month suspension and paying $2,500 fine from the Cali State Athletic Commission. Chael and the UFC are now free to negotiate a fight for an upcoming show for Chael. My guess would be that we will see Chael take on Michael Bisping.
Lots of fighters have thrown their name in the hat to fight Bisping after Bispings actions following his fight vs. Jorge Rivera last weekend. My take on the Bisping situation is this; He apologized and he was amped up from the fight. I understand that the knee was illegal and he was penalized for it. And if you watch the replay, you see Rivera move his right leg and foot in a way that would indicate he was about to stand up. Basically just bad timing by Bisping. Those things happen. Rivera should consider himself lucky that he was even given an opportunity to fight Bisping as they are clearly on different levels of the middleweight division.
Rivera did a good job selling the fight but made himself look like a royal ass by doing it. And then he also puts his boxing coach in the mix, who isn't even a fighter. He's just a coach. So he needs to limit his words and actions. Now, I can see how spitting on someone is fucking low bullshit and I would be mad too, but they can't complain because Bisping gave them the finger. What is this, fourth grade? they all need to grow up.
Now, Sonnen is one of the handful of fighters to say he wants Bisping. Here is Chael's email to UFC matchmaker Joe Silva.

Re: Spitsbing & his tainted victory
Joe:
If you get a chance to talk with him, please mention to your idiot-in-residence Michael Spitsbing it’ll be a little tougher to knee ME in the head when I’m charging at him like a runaway train and mincing him through the fence like a boiled potato, should we ever have the pleasure of each other’s company for a few (VERY few) moments in the Octagon.
Oh; and I’d suggest to him being a little careful about spitting on any of MY cornermen, since any one of them can beat him up as badly as I can. Thanks ever so much.
Hope all is well.
