Brut posted:One of the things that make me not really that mad at Dana for running these events (If I try to set aside me wanting to see some loving fights) is that all around the country people are ignoring basically all the rules everywhere, so I don't think these few events are gonna have that much impact. If everyone was being super obedient with the lockdown this would look a lot worse. Meanwhile here in Korea, we've had zero new cases. The only new cases they've identified were people who have traveled into the country recently and are under a mandatory 2 week quarantine.

I mean gathering your fanbase to all get sick and die together even at 25% capacity seems like a long term business plan that isn't really sustainable

The plan is empty arenas for the near future. They are ~$2B in debt and desperately want to meet their ESPN contract obligations. Other sports leagues/promotions don't really have the same financial pressure they have put themselves in.

I was just going off of the news reports that the plan for most sporting events UFC and otherwise is to start with limited capacity and scale upward once they let fans in Hopefully that's at least a few months away

Are all of those designs stolen? lmao Like maybe you can classify it under "parody" or something but I'm like 99% sure I've seen that triangle somewhere, without the octagon on it, and same goes for that island map with the compass, again minus the octagon and the UFC flag. I don't personally recognize the others but I wouldn't be surprised... Shine posted:At a glance, the light-blue one kinda looks like it says "FIGHT ISLAM." Whoops!

The Hotline shirt might replace my fading Pride FC gear, with an extra for framing in the disaster memorial museum erected some twenty years from now.

With as scrawny as the Survivor contestants tend to get, it’d be more like trying to keep weight on for the whole shoot. Instead of everyone fighting a weight class higher than normal, they’ll all be phantomweights by the end of it.

For real though you can still be sporty in beat up jeans, a flannel shirt with the sleeves cut off and a mullet Top it off with a cowboy hat and you've got the regulation uniform for the oildome, bitch
