Lean in

There a knockout video of a boxing knockout, which, sadly, I cant embed here. Very very sadly.
In the main event of Fox Sports 1′s boxing debut Monday night, cancer survivor Danny Jacobs defeated Giovanni Lorenzo with an epic third-round knockout that reaches stratospheric levels of epic thanks to Fox’s super slow-mo camera.
Don't mess with cancer survivors, unless you are referring to cancer survivor Lance Armstrong. Who, btw, is now referred to as "disgraced professional cyclist". Lance seems to have max out his cancer survivor, don't leave home w/o it, card.
"If you want to shoot me the bird, that’s OK," the disgraced cyclist says of his upcoming ride, which comes half a year after his highly publicized interview with Oprah Winfrey.
Speaking of stratospheric levels of epic; seven tours of the ef*n Tour de France. If its too good to be true, it's probably Oprah charging Swiss Sales Assistant with racism.

Media coverage like that gives playing to the cheap seats a bad name.

(1) The brilliant scientists and engineers who invented the high-speed camera could not have possibly foreseen that someday the technology would be used in TV commercials for chain restaurants to show various sauces and other ingredients flying through the air and crashing into one another.

(2) Who the fuck thinks I'm going to buy some national chain's sandwich or hamburger or something because they showed someone pressing on it in close-up slow motion so I could see the grease and melted cheese and other stuff oozing out of it like yellow pus?

What are we, a nation of fucking Pavlov's dogs???!!!

(3) Wait, don't answer that. I already know the answer.

That was awesome! Even more epic than Allistair Overeem eating Travis Browne's foot on Saturday night! The guy getting knocked out looks a little like the last shot we see of Gus Fring at the end of that super-slo-mo replay.....

Hi Lem. Still noticing the blogroll is bovine free.

Yeah what's up with that Lemmy. Why not put up Evi's blog. You can take mine down since I don't give access anyway. Evi's blog can serve as the counterweight to the pro TOP blogs.

Evens up the playing field so to speak.
