Danzig’s TUF 6 Blog

In his blog on this season of The Ultimate Fighter, Mac Danzig gives his impressions of episode 11 of the reality series:
To all my wonderful readers: Sorry if this one is short, but I’m concentrating on full time training and honestly, there’s not really much to say about it. Oh yeah, if I seem like a smart-ass jerk at times, maybe I am, but keep in mind, I’m trying to make this blog entertaining, so here goes …
Well, this episode (entitled “Upper Decker”) revolves almost entirely around the Saunders vs Speer fight, and the toilet incident. Great, episode, eh?
Somehow, in the fight recaps, Richie is again praised for not getting destroyed as bad as everyone expected, disregarding the fact that George had a virtually no-win situation on his hands fighting someone four to five levels below him. It’s like a professional chess player playing against a toddler with an extra chromosome, and when the toddler takes a pawn before losing, everyone praises him for it. In that case: Great job, Richie! You are an inspiration to us all.
Richie would make one hell of a great T-Ball player.
The toilet incident: Up until this point, none of these guys (War, Richie, Troy) really had shown that much blatant disrespect to anybody. We were about one week away from going home when this happened and I was not in the mood for that kind of nonsense.
There really isn’t much to say about it. Richie wasn’t going to get up when I walked towards him. He was hammered and decided to play a fake role of “I’m gonna sit here and laugh, it’s no big deal.” He knew people would hold me back and he wanted no part of it. This guy is hilarious. He says that “my bark is louder than my bite.” I have to laugh at that. This is coming from a guy who submitted by whining like a little girl into George’s anal cavity while kicking his feet like Fay Wray in “King Kong.”
When Billy told me about their little prank, I just told myself; “Don’t do anything that will get you kicked off the show.” And I didn’t. I can understand a lot of pranks out there, but that was pretty nasty. On top of that, a prank should be played on someone who you’re friends with, not your enemies. Otherwise, it’s the difference between something that is silly and laughable, and something that causes huge problems.
I was in my closet thinking about how I should handle the situation when I heard J-Roc kick the door down. I then heard some yelling and I ran out there because I assumed that we were fighting. Once I got to the room, it was just a bunch of guys yelling and holding each other back and basically trampling Bowman who had fallen to the floor in a valiant one-legged attempt at breaking the squabble up.
I don’t know … the whole situation sucked because I don’t associate myself with people who do stuff like this and here I was, forced to be around them. But that’s the formula for the show and that’s what I signed up for, right?
I told them to clean it up, they did, and I wasn’t trying to have anything to do with them anymore.
The fight between Tommy and Ben was pretty boring with the exception of Tommy’s no-quit attitude during the arm bar. I have to admit, that was in really deep. Tommy won’t tap. That’s all there is to it. He’s tough as hell and it’s from his upbringing. If someone is going to beat the guy, it’s gonna have to be with technique and precision. You can’t let the guy hold you down and grind you out. Easier said than done, as we saw here.
Stay tuned for next episode, people. This whole experience is almost finally over and I couldn’t be happier.

You really make it appear really easy together with your presentation but I find this topic to be actually something which I believe I might by no means understand. It kind of feels too complex and extremely extensive for me. I’m taking a look ahead for your next post, I¡¦ll try to get the cling of it!
I am not sure where you are getting your information, but great topic. I needs to spend some time learning more or understanding more. Thanks for magnificent information I was looking for this information for my mission.

The new Zune browser is surprisingly good, but not as good as the iPod’s. It works well, but isn’t as fast as Safari, and has a clunkier interface. If you occasionally plan on using the web browser that’s not an issue, but if you’re planning to browse the web alot from your PMP then the iPod’s larger screen and better browser may be important.

Between me and my husband we’ve owned more MP3 players over the years than I can count, including Sansas, iRivers, iPods (classic & touch), the Ibiza Rhapsody, etc. But, the last few years I’ve settled down to one line of players. Why? Because I was happy to discover how well-designed and fun to use the underappreciated (and widely mocked) Zunes are.
