I've lost an annual golf bet to a friend of mine and have to buy him a bottle of whisky for a third year in a row. Fortunately, I'm out with him on the night I have to present it so I'll be able to drink a good bit of it myself.
We're both big fans of Lagavulin but its too obvious...

Just how accountable are promoters to state athletic commissions though? Aren't they (the commissions) more or less in the same position as Dana in so much as they have to look like they're appalled but ultimately, they want the financial benefit of hosting these events.....? They'll issue a...
I'm not a UFC superfan either but I'm not sure I see why the genuine fans be embarrassed? All the trash talk, hype and "beef" forms part of the UFC package and like you say, its great television. Had the incident resulted in fans kicking the shit out of each other inside/outside the venue then...
