Not trying to step on Rodja's toes (he's probably just busy with other stuff), but I got curious. The scores are:

Winner : Alexander - 22

19 - Rogue
17 - jas123, beo
13 - MrEZE, size, CryingEmo

10 - Lake, grila jj
9 - brass monkey
8 - Decadone
7 - Andro69
6 - rodja
5 - UNCfan1
4 - biggerthantex

*Gifted you were a little too late. Some of the results were posted already.

EVERYONE REP ALEXANDER. If you can't rep him immediately, rep other contest participants or board members until you can.
 
Congrats Alex, just repped you.

Completely off topic, but ersatz, were you playing the Halo 3 beta week or two ago? Someone had your name exactly.

And I pwned him repeatedly.
 
I did f'ing horrible. At least I got the two main fight right and the Irvin/Silva fight was a fluke.
 
You kicked ass, Brah! :nutkick: Rock on, Baby!! :head:

I'm still trying to figure out how you fixed this, Alexander wins by picking Alexander?! :think:

Just kidding, you done good, for once :stick:
 
Well damn I am just going to listen to Randy Couture from now on! He called both upsets! But I mean damn how could you have guessed Houston Alexander over Jardine in a 1st rd. knockout lol.
 
Couture's only right about 70% of the time in his picks for the Fight Network, he's not as reliable as the best of us here. That's just on par with straight picking odds favorites.

That's the truth, do the numbers. I have, cause I'm doing this with real money.

Great fighter, just ok fight picker.
 
I hate to brag, but many people do refer to me as the fight professor. Watch out for me on the next pics contest where I'm sure to score a bagel. Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaar Conehead(H. Alexander).
 
Simmer down, not quite, never will be Quadros.

If I, The Bas Rutten of this here place, ever pull the proverbial Rodja, won't happen, but I'm just saying, I'll find a way to blame you, somehow, someway.

I was about to slip in a :twisted: comparative to the swiftness of Stephen Hawking, but no, never mind. That's just mean, I only do mean on Mondays.

What is the "proverbial Rodja", if I may ask???
 
Settle down, Goldie and Blatnick. I like the subtle Rogue Drone > Randy message in your post. Someone's ego is on a "definitive meteoric rise".

For the record, I actually liked Blatnick even though he was rather goofy. Didn't know he wrestled Karelin until recently. Now I'll go practice my "entangled arms".
 
One) That's your interpretation, not necessarily the implied intent but Two) in this case, correct, Randy Couture, has, like anyone else, skills far greater than mine but demonstrably not in this one.

Three) Guilty on the ego, my spin on that would be it's one of my core beliefs that one must cultivate a great measure of internal certainty in order to be successful in an environment of great uncertainty, that's how and where I operated for a long time. It's a fine line between this and perceived arrogance, and I do cross that line frequently, but again, my belief, better to err over that side than to live too far back from that line.

Four) That's along the lines of what I squared away last night and Five ) Yesterday's Blatnick would be an welcome upgrade, IMO, from Today's Goldberg, that guy's a waste of space.

Anyway, 'nuff said.
 
It ain't no thing. I please all of the people some of the time, some of the people all of the time, but never all of the people all of the time. I am the Rooster.

I take everything Mentally seriously and Emotionally not, my Human mind analyzed and responded, my Mammalian Mind shrugs most everything off, my Reptilian Mind is coiled, ready to strike.

That's sounds like some kind of cult vooodo psych, but that is the way the Homo Sapien Tri minds work.
 
Jas, all I have to say is, I'm the sh*t, get used to it. Kidding of course, I fuc*in blow, but who the hell could be good at picking in this upset era anyways?

Bas Rutten of this place? You must mean Harold Howard. And another thing, no joking around in this forum, you know that is frowned upon by :whiner: and:type: :twisted:

Harold Howard. Damn it, I couldn't think of his name and was too lazy to look it up. All I could think of was Blatnick. :frustrate

What's the score now?
Rogue - 2 wins
Alex - 2 wins
Jas - 1 win
TattooP - 1 win
Mr EZE - 1 or 2 wins?

Where do you come up with this stuff, Rogue? You must be interesting when you've sucked back a couple of pitchers.

Solid words. This concept works well with women, I have found. Not to be, you know, completely off topic or anything.
 
@ Alexandrovich- too funny, the pictoral play of an insider joke, most won't get it, I think SS might.

@ Jas -Ain't I a pistol? I ain't backing down, it ain't me.

For the Season, done like NASCAR does the Winston Cup, not a fan but it's a good way to credit individual ability and the way Teams and Leagues do it - not an accumulated score, too lazy, but in the top three in every contest that I chose to be in, no one else has been able to do that.

@ Thrall

It's the norm here for threads to trail off into OT. This is unlike any other subforum at AM, we cut up and on each other faster and better than anywhere else.

There's a steady crew of smart regulars here, and you ain't seen nothing yet, once Alex and Jas and Savage and Beo and all the others get going, it's slapstick down and dirty. I try to stay above it all, me oh so proper, but I often have to defend myself from their Juvenile and Perverted Jabs.

I'll stop BSing for the **** of it so much,which I've done a lot lately, and prove that I have what got me cred, some real insight on the what, why and how of this game.
 
Yep. There's a lot of good-natured OT joking around here. One second we're discussing the big fight, the next Rogue's telling a story about how he ran into a wall with an erection and broke his nose.:twisted:
 
We have since UFC 67 , I believe, and a few Prides, and will continue to, it's a good way to generate interest, opinion and analysis and pad our rep points. For those of us, cough, who can win.

Yeah, don't break your arm patting yourself on the back, RD. :cool:

It's just too bad we can't use these points to neg rep anymore, that was fun for slapping around dickweeds, throw some point subtractions and nasty comments and watch the *****fests that resulted.

**** you, jas - it's not my fault that my Honker greatly exceeds my Inchworm. As stated, I'm too oft the target of their sordid swipes, I don't why they always pick on me, the burden of being a mild mannered midget that bullies slap around. :twisted:

Great, yeah don't start negging my 5 points should have banned me from any contest. Although I did win a bet with a guy on the Page/Liddell fight:thumbsup:
