The UFC isn’t dead. They are more popular than ever and over the last 3 months have been putting on some incredible fight cards.

I'm not a wrestling fan, but they seem to have avoided the nonsense; but I could be wrong.

I see the college game being corrupted as well before this is over. In my state Kentucky the damned fools are bitching about the name Rupp Arena where UK plays it’s home games. The media made Adolph Rupp out to be a racist when he was clearly not and ahead of his time trying to integrate the college game. Uneducated and ignorant fools and the coaches not saying, protest on your own time and try and learn about what you speak because you sound foolish to those who know history and the truth.

As for the pros, screw them, I quite the thug NBA 25 yrs ago. I stopped watching MLB when they went on strike in 1994 and screwed up the whole season, a pox on both the players and owners houses and when the first knee went down in the NFL and the coaches and owners went down they went off my radar. I won’t even watch highlights of the pros on the local news sports segments, the channel is changed. May they all die as paupers: owners, coaches, players...

UFC is mixed martial arts, not pro wrestling. Although wrestling and grappling are used just as much as striking. They are real athletic contests not scripted events like pro rassling.

Fortunately, Jerry cured me of being an NFL fan years ago. I realized I wasn't a NFL fan, I was a Cowboys fan. Landry, Staubach, Jethro Pugh, Drew Pearson.

When Jerry started talking about glory holes and such, I was out.

Tennessee, like most universities, does not have its players on the field during the national anthem.

I enjoyed the first two, but as a Longhorn, I knew how sleazy Barry Switzer was. I loved his nickname, “Bozo the coach.”

But Barry sure mastered the art of “under cussing”

“Tennessee, like most universities, does not have its players on the field during the national anthem.”

With regard to my post, your point would be what, exactly?
