I always thought rogan and goldberg decided that rogan would talk technique and golberg does the other stuff. That could make it seem like goldie doesn't know anything.

They're following the standard sports broadcasting format where they have one guy for "play-by-play" and another guy for "color commentary".

I think Rogan is OK (if unprofessional), but I never liked Goldberg.

I went to watch Vitor-Jones that I hadnt seen yet and it just made me realize why I hate Rogan and Goldie. First, they are showing the stats before the fight and they say Jones has a 12.5 inch reach advantage but the screen says 84.5 and 74.5.....the morons cant even subtract. Then, just minutes into the fight they say "Belfort NEVERRRR does submissions off his back" seconds later he almost ends the fight with an armbar. Lastly, during the break between rds 1 and 2 Rogan says to McCarthy "get yout big ass out of the way" so they can see the armbar. These two are not only clueless but also morons and are not the least bit professional. Its like they took two moron fans out of a bar and said "you want to announce fights?" Dont even get me started on the frequent "ITS ALL OVER!" that the pill popping junkie says when the fight is still going.Just a few more reasons why Goldie and Rogan are douches.

Wow. I just watched a long interview between ariel helwani and GSP. Link here: http://www.mmafighting.com/2013/3/13...-open-workouts

In the last 10 seconds GSP made a comment about Nick that touched on the convo we were all having earlier. He said Diaz has social anxiety and that is the reason he didn't show up to the Open Workouts.

To SPX, you ever think about interviewing Myle Fury Jury? He gives breakdowns before a lot of ufc events. He says who he thinks will win. It could be an intersting piece. He does it sometimes and other times not.

He's a real ufc figher that releases his own breakdowns.

Did a bit of research on this. It appears to be a fine camera, though I've never personally worked with it and in fact have never used a Nikon.

I did watch this vid and, after watching it, if you're willing to drop a bit more cash, I would probably suggest going with the Canon t4i, mostly because the side by side videos seem to be better on the t4i (though this could be due to the settings used on the Nikon . . . when shooting a film, you basically always set everything manually instead of trying the auto system) and also because you can change the aperture in the t4i while the video is actually recording.

With that said, here are a couple of Nikon 3200 test vids I found and I think they look good. Though bear in mind that they have been put through color correction software so it's not raw footage straight from the camera:

One other thing to keep in mind. . .

With DSLRs, there is a 12 minute recording limit. This is because they can't create video files greater than 4 GB. So if you think you're going to want to use it to do long recordings, you'll want a camcorder like the one I liked you to the last time we talked about this.

Hmm, that's interesting. I can't say I'd thought about it, but let me give his shit a look. Thanks for the heads up.
