I'm Coleman screaming NO loving WAY but I know he will be back. I just hate to see him go because I enjoyed him with that group of guys and think he is valuable enough that he will be snatched up before they can bring him back. Any way you look at it, Chael is rich for life, retired, and about to be a dad. I think he won.

I know Sonnen will be back because he got popped for a fight Dana and friends said they signed him up for without asking. If Chael wasn't such a company man, he would have gone, "Oh gently caress I'm juicing right now, I can't take that fight!" Instead he knew to go with it and if he got caught it would all be fine in a year or twos time.

Intel&Sebastian posted:I'm just saying if he thinks changing his boxing style after X weeks is bad, why isn't changing it after X years even worse? But yeah I agree the best course of action here isn't to jump on the train right before it hits a curve doing 300. I remember my fencing coach, who had a long rear end pedigree of about every kind of fencing champion outside of an Olympian (plenty of Junior Olympic Golds though) that certain athletes had characteristics that a lifetime of training just would not change, and that after a certain point it was better to embrace the person's kinks and have them enter matches in a good mindset and not stressed. I think this all came out of a conversation about why he would be a grueling taskmaster with some athletes, and others he preferred to let relax going into competition. Maybe it's that train of thought in action? Penn was not going to drastically change for one fight at the end of the career so better to work with what he had?

The Chael vs. Jones coaching reminds me way too much of some things I've personally encountered and I never really thought too much about it until comparing the two. Yeah, I guess you could call it pragmatic coaching. My fencing coach knew I had entered too late to ever amount to much in Nashville. You either had to start young and establish yourself on the regional tournaments and then go crush the Junior Olympics. If you started late you had to rank in small tournaments and go up from there. It never happened at my age in Nashville because we had a lot of immigrants in the 35 years old and up age of Soviet bloc countries who could go to any of the smaller tourneys and sleep through them and still maintain their Men's A rating. My club had a chain smoking Russian ex-Olympian who never talked but was cool in that unsettling foreign guy wearing a twenty year old leather jacket way. Anyways, I've never been able to stretch my legs for a gently caress. Before tourneys people would go into intense stretching routines and I would flounder badly and get exhausted just trying to limber up my legs. My coach eventually said, "Stretch for five minutes, then relax. You'll do better with a fresh mind and your other skills than shot legs that will take five to ten years to get limber." After this, I started placing well enough to get a low ranking and enjoy myself enough to be able to coach a bit in college. He saw what I could do and made the best of it. Sadly, we had one Women's Junior Epee fencer who was always in the top three if not two in the nation. She was considered a shoe in for the Olympics if she could post a good college career. She got a full fencing scholarship to a drat good school up north but the coach fought her going tooth and nail. He knew she was a mental case before tourneys and would let her listen to music, relax, and joke around. Then she would win. The Russian idiots at her school had a, "YELL FREQUENTLY! YOU ARE WRONG! TRY HARDER! PUT A TOWEL OVER YOUR HEAD FOR AT LEAST FIFTEEN MINUTES WITHOUT MOVING OR TALKING BEFORE A MATCH AND VISUALIZE THE WIN! (I'm not loving joking on that last one.)" She then started to peter out, dropped in rankings, didn't qualify for the Olympics, and one morning jumped out of her lofted top bunk onto an upturned stiletto heel which then shot through her foot and that was it for her hopes. It was God drat angering and sad, but he called it happening before she left for college. tl;dr - My fencing coach was cool. Fencing was cool. Smart coaching is rare and very cool.

So I'm hearing a good bit of Brown vs. Lawler hype coming on. But Wandy isn't feeling it yet. She isn't even getting into the pizza from work that the young girl keeps making and sending home with me (She is the devil and wants to upset our happy home you are right not to eat her food, Ms. Wandy.)  So what kind of pick do you folks want? I will not do anything that puts Wandy in danger or under stress, but I can sense she NEEDS to release her psychic MMA power that I got by boning Keith Hackney's niece when I was in college. I have passed that power to the parrot. Now the parrot shall pick the winner. PSP Power. I'm so confused and Wandy just pooped on my desk.

Marching Powder posted:a4 sheets of brown / lawler on either side of the cage. which side wandy's on when he wakes up in the morning is our winner. or the pictures on the bottom of the cage and the one with the least poo poo on it by gameday. The problem with this one is that parrots have their favorite perches thus poop spots. I'd be rigging it to put a name next to an area.

I'm really pumped for this fight for some reason. I feel like Cormier is going to channel some 2003-2006 Fedor and throw ugly tubby man baseball death at Jones and that makes us all happy. Is Cormier a dad? I feel like he has the look and feel of a man of could fight with Dad Strength. We can win this fight, PSP. I'm going to start pep talking the parrot.
