Diaz, Manning, Fantasies, Reagan Penn, Other Stuff...

Michigan or Notre Dame? That's like asking me which testicle I want to lose.

I do think Michigan wins, and that will result in ESPN going BANANAS! over them, like they have the last 2 years. Then they'll start losing, again.

When Andrew Luck is on the Colts I'm going to be fucking cry. I hate the Colts. More so, I hate their ownership, and their fans; not the actual players. Like, I have nothing against Peyton Manning, other than the fact that his Tennessee team cheated against Ohio State in the Citrus Bowl.

The NBA may have a 50 game season? Perfect. Now if we can just shave off like 15-20 more.

My fantasy team is solid, not yet spectacular:

Matt Ryan, Matt Stafford

Ray Rice, Felix Jones, Marshawn Lynch, DeMarco Murray, Stevan Ridley


Hakeem Nicks, Brandon Marshall, Jacoby Ford, Nate Burleson, Darius Heyward-Bey, Greg Little

Vernon Davis

These aren't so much my picks as they are actual answers to your problems.

Nick Diaz is a shmuck. However, I could see him fighting in a big time blockbuster fight against Reagan Penn. Who, for the record, I think will be making a run very soon.

However, like Diaz, Reagan has his own head issues which could derail a career before it begins. By head issues, I mean, he just is all over the place emotionally. He could quit fighting real soon, or be a champion. His call.

Likelihood is Nick Diaz will NOT be cut, the UFC will hold him under contract til the end, will then take shit out on Nate Diaz, and blah blah blah.

But let ms say this about the Diazes, both of whom I know, and have covered/interviewed.

They are WITHOUT QUESTION THE MOST DIFFICULT PEOPLE TO WORK WITH, BAR NONE! I've worked with nearly EVERY UFC Champion since 2003, and these two make EVERYONE'S LIVES DIFFICULT at Zuffa. They're not bad people at all. In fact, to the contrary, they're both very nice and personable.

BUT...

They are unprofessional, and extremely difficult.

This news doesn't surprise me. However, it's unfortunate because I do believe Nick can beat Georges St-Pierre. No question.

That's all for today.
