    McGregor vs Mayweather - Aug 26

    Floyd just stacking up points I think since round 3.

    Conor just looks gassed, not really hurt.

    Figure that's only 18 minutes, so not quite at his UFC limit yet.

    Conor needs to stop that shit, but Floyd is just turning around and ducking.

    Now Conor looks gassed

    McGregor vs Mayweather - Aug 26

    Well no way Floyd's winning those first couple rounds throwing 4-6 punches total. But he's probably going to dominate later rounds.

    Floyd coming on finally

    Don't expend nearly as much energy in a boxing round as MMA though.

    Didn't see many empty seats in that last look.

    Probably about right. Think Vegas had at least six $1M+ bets on Floyd as of earlier today.

    McGregor vs Mayweather - Aug 26

    People getting there late as shit. Also would be nice if announcers stopped saying Conor is the only guy to win UFC belts at 2 different weight classes. Just only guy to hold 2 at one time.

    McGregor vs Mayweather - Aug 26

    Maybe to a fan who's never seen Floyd fight before, I guess. I don't know in my mind this type of match up (boxer v. MMA fighter) you'd expect the MMA guy to be going for the KO while the boxer would just be landing combinations at will to win an easy unanimous decision. Given who each of...

    McGregor vs Mayweather - Aug 26

    At this point even average sports enthusiasts know what UFC is about. The idea a boxer wearing larger gloves should be able to knock the UFC fighter out is kind of silly. Almost any sports fan knows what Floyd is about too, defensive boxing. Dancing around and making Conor look silly never...

    McGregor vs Mayweather - Aug 26

    Well I sorta meant it as seems silly to claim Mayweather should be embarrassed if he can't KO Conor cause he's never had a boxing match before. Pretty sure if Floyd can land punches at will, and evade most everything Conor throws making him look bad for the entire fight he'll have proved his...

    McGregor vs Mayweather - Aug 26

    Not sure if serious. Possible of course, especially using 8 ounce gloves...but Mayweather hasn't been as much of a knockout artist as his career has gotten on. Also McGregor has never been knocked out in 24 professional MMA fights, against guys using 4 ounce gloves who can also elbow, knee...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    If I were guessing, I'd assume we finally get more Bran/Sam stuff in the finale, Cersei does some shady shit somehow (I guess this isn't much of a reach, just expected every time at this point), and they will leave a cliffhanger for next season. I'm hoping they resolve (or make not as terrible)...

    Given the length, something major will have to happen...but I'd imagine it'll be more about setting up next season than a lot of conclusions just yet.

    Only pays out $182k. I mean, "only"...but for risking a million.

    Agreed. He's even guaranteed he's going to KO Conor as well.

    NFL 2017-18: Watch athletes destroy their brains

    Announcers doing this game on NFLN are horrible. He's out of bounds, but even if he wasn't, it can't be a fumble cause ball crosses the line either way in his possession.

    McGregor vs Mayweather - Aug 26

    Sorry, yes the majority of money is being bet on Floyd (biggest bet was north of 800k), but due to odds the books in Vegas will be taking substantial loss overall if Conor somehow were to win.

    Most of the money is on McGregor. I heard more than 90%.

    NFL 2017-18: Watch athletes destroy their brains

    Going to be competing with the Jets for that. I think Jacksonville is thinking they can get by with the better of the two (and honesty, that team has a lot of talent, they should only require decent QB play to flirt with 8-8).

    NFL 2017-18: Watch athletes destroy their brains

    Haha speaking of the want to win thing, stuff out there about Jets potential tank job. But again, I think there are several teams that probably think he could lead to increased wins this year, but if you have a young guy you're grooming, you might not want to bring in a guy who could be a...

    Niners fans know it's going to be a few years anyways. Kaep is better than Hoyer too haha. But I'm sure Kaep and Gabbert both are happy as hell to be out of San Fran (even if I think they killed it in 1st round of the draft this year). As others have noted, Kaepernick being a potential...

    NFL 2017-18: Watch athletes destroy their brains

    Didn't get to see a lot of his games, but did watch some. Always seemed to be playing better than the results. His receiver play was unreal bad (although given who they were fielding, that's not too surprising), and his D blew something like 3 double digit leads in game he was in I believe...

    NFL 2017-18: Watch athletes destroy their brains

    I think the SJW fear is overblown. Last year wasn't an aberration like he was on a team that was helping his numbers. His team was terrible. Worst defense in the league, terrible receivers. Also a lot of the narrative about what he can and can't do as a passer is based on old assumptions...

    well, I think only Trent really went full vegan. Like I said, he only did it for a month too, he's back to eating some other stuff now. Just something they were experimenting with.

    NFL 2017-18: Watch athletes destroy their brains

    Brady isn't a vegan, but his diet is extremely strict from what I recall hearing lately. Trent Williams on the Skins just went full vegan for a month, and was discussing it with rest of our O line. I think he's going to continue some form of hybrid diet trying to stick to certain parts of a...

    NFL 2017-18: Watch athletes destroy their brains

    And here I thought the vegan or similar diet plans were all the rage among guys to extend their careers. Also last I heard, he was going to stand for the anthem this year. As for the hipster part...well you gotta take some bad with the good I guess.

    This all assumes Dany has absolutely zero interest in actually seeing for herself whether everything Jon had been saying could be real. Which makes less sense than anything else. Of course there's a part of her that's going to want to go (not to mention the heavy foreshadowing of her and Jon...

    NFL 2017-18: Watch athletes destroy their brains

    I think it's less about race (although it does play a part in why so many people cry so much about the protest) and just whiny fans making waves that owners don't want to deal with. Cutler's deal shouldn't be used as a comparison to Kaepernick's, as Cutler was a guy done with football, whereas...

    United and City with fairly easy Champions League group draws. Real Madrid in worst group imo with Dortmund and Tottenham. Liverpool's group a little tougher than United or City, but still doable for them to advance, I believe. Chelsea have a tougher group as well with Atletico Madrid and...

    I'll have to disagree with the "pithy discussion" while trudging up a hill. I figure that's exactly how it would all go, especially given how many of them hadn't been around one another before. That was really the best part of the episode, all the spectacle aside.

    NFL 2017-18: Watch athletes destroy their brains

    Cousins will actually likely get more than that if he has another season like the last 2. But a season like that would mean once again being a top 10 guy stat wise...which Kaepernick isn't that. Also Glennon's deal is for 3 years and $45 million, and the way it works out it's more like a 1...

    NFL 2017-18: Watch athletes destroy their brains

    I remember hearing both that he wanted starter money and that he was willing to accept backup money. $20M is a bit much, that's like top 15 money and he's not getting that even without the protest stuff. $15M or less sounds reasonable. I'll put it like this, no way I'd take him over Cousins...

    NFL 2017-18: Watch athletes destroy their brains

    As a starter you run into a few things. Outside of the top 10 guys, depending on the year, guys 11-25 can be sorta interchangeable at times...except in experience in their system, skillset fitting system, etc. So really any team with one of those guys would be weighing a marginal upgrade at...
