I was talking about Angle. Seems below him to go on TUF considering he's already an Olympic gold medalist in a very relevant discipline.

Weird that he didn't pass his medicals. I wonder what that's all about.

I don't know. Koscheck went on there (and didn't win). Galvao tried out (didn't get picked because of his english). Vinny Magalhaes went on there (and didn't win).

The difference is that Angles is already well known and has money. But Being that he is a HW, I would think Dana would do what he needed to do to sihn him since HW's suck.

Went and saw Moneyball today. A bit slow in parts, but good overall.

In case you were wondering, the sport that the movie was revolved around is called baseball.






Speaking of movies, I wanna see Moneyball, Dream House, 50/50, and Contagion. I wouldn't mind seeing Straw Dogs or Abduction either. I saw The Help awhile back...I liked it a lot

I think you mean cricket.

I'd like to see Dream House, but the reviews are shitty. I don't know anything about 50/50. I'll wait for DVD on the rest.

I'm looking forward to: Ides of March, Real Steel, Anonymous, In Time, The Rum Diary, Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy, Mission Impossible 4, Sherlock Holmes 2, The Adventures of Tin Tin, The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, and maybe The Three Musketeers.

BTW, The Help was actually set and filmed in the city in grew up in.

If you are a fan of westerns...check out The Proposition.

And Postman was a great movie.

Plot for The Proposition...


Rural Australia in the late nineteenth century: Capt. Stanley and his men capture two of the four Burns brothers, Charlie and Mike. Their gang is held responsible for attacking the Hopkins farm, raping pregnant Mrs. Hopkins and murdering the whole family. Arthur Burns, the eldest brother and the gang's mastermind, remains at large has and has retreated to a mountain hideout. Capt. Stanley's proposition to Charlie is to gain pardon and - more importantly - save his beloved younger brother Mike from the gallows by finding and killing Arthur within nine days.
