The strongest argument for keeping Aaron Glenn is that he gives the Jets their best chance at the No. 1 pick.
The man was born to lose football games.
The winless Chargers and Dolphins are coming up on the schedule.
The path to eternal glory is right there. Don't screw this up.
🚨 Ciryl Gane is scheduled to fight Josh Hokit in 14 days and we are seeing MMA fouls punished by referees MORE THAN EVER:
October 10th - Marc Goddard immediately deducts a point from Christian Leroy Duncan for an illegal eye poke without a second warning
October 24th - Marc Goddard immediately deducts a point from Narullo Aliev for shots to the back of the head without a second warning
Tonight - Herb Dean immediately deducts a point from Zachary Reese for an illegal eye poke without a second warning
MMA is changing…

Only champs willing to run the gauntlet are Volk, Van, and Yan. That’s sad…

Abu Dhabi coming right up so set that reminder and tune in as the crew breakdown the fights with a side of headlines and MMA news.
Many of the fights are lined closely but definite value in some spots and props.

The last time an Undisputed UFC Featherweight title bout didn't feature Alexander Volkanovski or Max Holloway was 11 years ago.

Conor McGregor vs Jose Aldo, UFC 194.
It used to be that when UFC fighters got cut/not resigned, they would not respond to any of Dana’s shade.
Farid has opened the flood gates.
when fighters are getting phone calls from bosses telling them, “If you keep wrestling like that, you’re going to get cut,” then you’re basically telling fighters how you want them to fight.
At what point does that cross the line? Isn’t that influencing the competition?
And if you want to release a fighter, fine. But don’t then publicly say he was “hard to deal with” or create some bullshit narrative about him that could damage his reputation and make other organizations think twice about signing him.
Release fighters if you want. Just don’t try to damage their careers on the way out
