    These tools give MMA a bad name. They are the most childish group of people I have seen in a long time.

    I was thinking the same thing. It seems like every season gets worse and worse. As the sport becomes more and more mainstream - it attracts the tough guy crowd that no longer has a basis in traditional martial arts and never learn about honor, respect, and the spirit of budo.

    The quality of fighters have dropped greatly. Look at the first 2 seasons many of these guys like Leben,Swick,Stevenson,Southworth,Florian,Quarry,Sanchez,Griffin,Gurgel,Burkman,Whitehead ETC who had won titles and fought on big shows. Now you got all these unqualifed young fellas who think they are the **** because they are on TV without busting there ass like the guys before them who yeah where on the show to but earned there spots.

    I agree with both of you. They need to stop using house entertainment as a major criteria in picking contestants.

    From business perspective I think they pick the best athletes then come the crazy people. This way the show stays legit and keeps the ratings up. So you'll have someone legit winning the show while the show seems like a mad house.

    You'll still watching that?? That has turned into a soap opera

    They need to change the format to make this interesting and to somewhat punish these ****ers...

    Let them fight the UFC Champ at the end.. You win you get the belt..otherwise you get the **** beaten out of you...theyre wasting peoples time by giving them contracts and ****..They want the shot, give it to them instantly..I swear some of these assholes wouldnt even bother joining

    Sadly, the show has devolved into nothing more than a reality series about a frat house. Tonight's episode was repulsive. You think Nog was cumming in his training partner's food on his way up the ladder? Hell no. While the red team retaliated with some nasty stuff tonight, most of the pranks and stupid **** have come from that blue team. They're a bunch of drunken clowns, and Frank Mir just laughs off their antics like they're a normal part of being young. Well, they're not. They're a normal part of being a disrepectful little ****, though.

    I am guilty of tuning in once in a while but man...Im not traditional and all but these guys are a bunch of slobs...It might hurt UFC eventually..imagine thse guys as role models..if the UFC is going to be mainstream..they cant have athletes that makes Terell Owens, Pacman Jones look like choirboys

    Hey hey hey!!!!!:nono:nono:nono:nono Leave my Dallas Cowboys alone!:D

    I agree, they are immature assholes and it's repulsing for an "old man" (29) like me.:-(
     
  12. I've thought this for the last few years now. I actually stopped watching but after watching the WEC fights at my bros house, we turned on TUF. Once the childish/disgusting pranks started, I actually got up and left. It's giving the sport a bad name.

    I always watch the show. It is set to record in my DVR :D Dana needs to get his head out of his ass and realize that these kids are hurting MMA more than helping it.

    At least Owens and Jones have actual ****in talent!!..Great talent!
    These guys are worse than the cast of Surreal life in that they really are worse than B list actors...I agree with the post above...I think Dana is realizing now that it may have been a mistake letting this season on air.

    Like I said, if you want to attract serious aspiring TUFers...let them fight straight for the championship as the prize...because it will be either a ****in beatdown or if they hang or even win, then you have found real talent.

    You look at these guys bios and almost all of them have absolutely no credible fighting backgrounds.

    Dana picks entertainers not fighters for TUF.
