IWs sucks now. 2 events this weekend and no one to be found. Great job fuckers.

[SPX]

I have unfortunately just not really been able to watch the past few events and I'm going to miss everything this weekend because I'll be back on the train.

I'll be back in Salt Lake and moving into an apartment on the 25th though, so once I'm settled I should be fully back into the swing of things. Oh, and I think I'm even going to get cable too!

There really isn't much I want to see this weekend. Saturday's card is complete dog shit and they are on crack if they think I am paying for that. The only fight I am mildly interested in is Werdum/Russow, but it will probably be a blow out.

Friday, I will probably watch the main event and that's it.

I might be moving to Denver, so that is something.

[SPX]

Friday's card has some pretty good matchups, I think. Guida/Maynard, Stout/Fisher, Ebersole/Waldburger, Swanson/Pearson, Miller/Funch and Hioki/Lamas are all interesting to me.

But yeah, I don't even know what's up with Saturday's card. Werdum/Russow and Silva/Franklin are interesting, but that's it.

What's up with you moving to Denver? That's weird. I mean, you haven't mentioned anything about possibly moving in the past. . .

Guida Maynard--- eh, not that interesting to me, but I will watch it I guess. Stout/Fisher is the opposite of interesting... it is not relevant and I have seen it before- twice. I wasn't that enthralled with it the first 2 times. Hioki/Lamas will be interesting, just because Hioki is a contender.

I don't think Franklin/Silva is remotely interesting. A) I have seen it; B) It wasn't that good last time IMO; C) It is completely irrelevant.

I have taken a few interviews different places... I just take a browse around every few months. Something interesting came up and they are going to offer me a job... the only issue is whether I want to travel as much as required for it. I would be on a plane multiple times per week. It is probably going to be too much time away from my family, but I am going to see what they say.

Just tell the truth and admit you're following Peyton Manning from Indy to Denver

[Mr. IWS]

I might be moving to Denver, so that is something.

Same type of work?

In my heart, I am. I think Luck is going to get hurt and screw the Colts for the next decade. Also, Polian built that team, and they threw him out after one bad season.

Yeah, same deal, different firm. It is a bigger company and I would have about a dozen attorneys under me. I would be lord of the mountain states

LOL, I like it man.

[MMA_scientist]

LOL, I like it man.

I am probably not going to take it. I don't really want to move. I am close to my friends and family, and even though Denver is vastly superior to my home town in pretty much every imaginable way... at this point in my life, I get more net happiness from the relationships I have built than from the scenery around me. Plus, I separated my shoulder snowboarding in Breckenridge about a decade ago, and that bitch still hurts sometimes, so I am kind of pissed at moutains right now. Though I do love me some snowboarding.

^^^I can understand that. Although in about 8-10 years, when my kids are out of the house, Im getting the fuck out of Philly, Im heading west.

My kids are a big part of it. They wouldn't care, but I would feel bad taking them away from their grandparents, who have nothing to live for as it is.

I actually started looking around because my buddy who has been my go to guy since HS, is moving. I started asking why I am staying here, but as the actual opportunity materialized, I am having second thoughts. I might do it, depends if I can squeeze enough money out of them to justify it. As it is now, I am only going to break even with it, and only then because I fucked up my income last year and still haven't recovered.

[Mr. IWS]

Im just looking for a fresh start. I basically didnt do anything but raise kids in my 20's and now my 30's. Me and my wife wanna just go out west and start over, get into adventures like David Carradine.
