Quick UFC 130 Review

Rick "The Horror" Story upsets Thiago "Pit Bull" Alves at UFC 130.

UFC 130 went pretty much as expected, maybe more dull than anticipated, if anything. Hit the jump for my thoughts on the event, and what to expect moving forward.

New Arcade Fire.


Hypocrite, reader
My double, my brother
Where did we lose our way?
It's like we're speaking in tongues
It's like we're speaking in tongues

UFC 130


UFC 130 is tomorrow night, and although the card was definiley hurt by the withdrawl of Frankie Edgar(back), Grey Maynard(knee) and especially Thiago Silva(alternative medicine) it should still be a pretty decent night of fights. The outcome of the main-event is probably a foregone conclusion, but the rest of the card is full of fairly even match-ups. Here are my thoughts:

Remembering Macho Man


The year was 1993. I had been an avid sports card collector, frequenting the local hobby shop with as much regularity an 8 year-old had the means to. On this day though, something strange happened. I was stunned by what I saw. It wasn't what I'd come for, and it certianly wasnt anything I would see on a hockey card. I don't even think I had noticed the shop had been primarily a comic book store until that very moment. It was Superman. Drenched in thick black blood, in the arms of a crying Lois Lane. His ripped and torn-up cape, a makeshift flag, flying half-mast in the wind over the cracked cement of downtown Metropolis. Superman was dead.

Radiohead - Lotus Flower

There's an empty space inside my heart
Where the weeds take root
And now I'll set you free
I'll set you free

Lykke Li - I'm Good, I'm Gone(2008)

And if you say I'm not OK
with miles to go
If you say there ain't no way that i could know
If you say i aim too high from down below
Well, say it now 'cause when i'm gone
You'll be callin' but i won't be at the phone
