    I wish they would have left out Dana's foul mouthed punk ass...and told Griffin and Jackson to quit trying to be funny and coach their ffighters.

    From what I saw on the first episode,...I think they picked the wrong two guys to coach

    They only picked those guys to hype up a fight no one cares about. They'll both make terrible coaches. When you move from Randy Couture to Forrest Griffin, you know that show's gone downhill.

    It's a shame too....because TUF was the only "reality" show I ever liked.

    Just like I've always said..."reality TV" is gay............

    They bring in trainers guys, and they have some of the best in the world.

    I quite enjoyed the show.

    Dana is hilarious. I have a geme going with the wife to see if he can go a full sentance without swearing.

    Rampage and Griffin are ok but the show has never really been about having competant coaches. Some of the guys brought in are good and others not so, this year I doubt we will get too much of the training insights but alot more of the stupidity that goes on, a real shame.

    I gotta disagree.

    Dana is NOT hilarious. He is a pompous ***** who isn't any more likable than Don King. In Fact, he isn't as likable as Don. A total classless idiot.

    While I like Griffin and Jackson as fighters....they suck as coaches imo. And their "funny" act is going to be laid on waaay too thick I think.

    A big fat BOOOOOOO!!!!!!!:nono

    Rampage is a funny guy, but I did think it was a bit disrespectful taking the **** out of 1 or 2 of the fighters while they were actually fighting, lol. Tko4 you are spot on, they were only picked to be coaches to hype the fight.

    Rampage is funny being himself,..NOT being a tool for TUF to use, instruct and capitalize on.

    It isn't natural for him.

    I liked him better in PRIDE.

    Yea, it was so much funnier when Pride billed him as homeless.

    Or When they mentioned he would be paid a bounus for submitting to Sakuraba.

    Nothing like minstrel acts and attempting to fix fights, hillarious.
     
  12. The show has always sucked and taken away from the sport. It causes long delays between fights for the coaches and makes some of the fighters look like idiots outside the ring. It's stupid.

    funny you say it takes away from the sport yet the explosion of MMA in North America basically coincide with the first season of TUF. it is hard to argue that it hasn't been good for the sport.

    ****! Emo with a ****ed up haircut beats the former Marine. Looked like a cross between an MC Hammer cut, and a Mankind cut.

    I need to go **** up an emo now.
