Some great ring entrances from Genki Sudo

I’m watching Cork v Galway and it’s great to see fellas handpassing with the fist instead if throwing it. I also like the rule that the ball has to go out of play before the half is over. Makes things much simpler. Football still needs a tackle though. Too many frees in Football. It’s a nice clean game though, no Kerry involvement. :)

I’m wrecked from training all week so I am going to stay in this weekend. I’m going to save my money, and liver, for Paddy’s Day. Since Lorri is gone home for the weekend I am going to spend some quality time with Call of Duty Modern Warfare II. If anybody wants to join me at any time my gamer tag is thesraid.

I read this in the Irish Independent today.  In it he says that Paul Galvin is “100% innocent” and “shouldn’t have been sent off”. Is he on crack? He punches a guy (again) which causes Eoins tooth to come out. Then he sticks his fingers into his mouth (fish hook) and worries the wound. Now Eoin had to have an operation. What kond of a thug sticks his finger into the whole where someones tooth was seconds before? And now O’Connor seconds his 6 week ban is too harsh? This is the same Paul Galvin who served a one year ban and is in trouble at work for abusing a school boy!

Still I suppose this is the same team that elbowed Nicholas Murphy in the first few minutes of the All-Ireland and nearly knocked him out. So obviously Jack has no issues with theses thugs and perhaps encourages them.

Was at MMA today and some dude kicked me with his instep right on the elbow. My elbow is okay, a little sore, but his foot looks like someone hid a golf ball in it. Plus there is a nice elbow shaped cut on it. Ouch!

In the cinema waiting for the movie to start. I came way to early so I’m playing with my phone.

Wandy had a good win against the Brit over the weekend. He played a very smart, conservative game. Not quite as explosive as in the past but much smarter. He was very happy with the win, and even shed a tear during the interview. Legend. Here is the last few moments of the fight. He very nearly forgot that he wasn’t in Pride and went to kick Bisping in the face while he was on the ground.

Went to see Hayseed Dixie in Cypress Ave Sunday night. Great band. Very up tempo energetic music. Really enjoyed it.

I found this brilliant tribute to MMA on YouTube today. Some great clips from the UFC with Marilyn Manson in the background.
