I agree to a certain extent. Certainly from watching his specials and sets on youtube or wherever he doesnt seem very funny at all. But i went to one of his live shows with Duncan Trussel supporting before a ufc event and it was surprisingly good, although the funny bits were mostly ad-libbed stuff and audience interaction. So ye a lot of his actual material isnt very funny. My buddy who came who hardly knew who rogan was and not really a ufc fan or anything even said it wasnt bad and had some laughs. But then were were very drunk! We had some good banter with trussel after as well

Trussel is great. i have only seen online stuff but can't imagine its worth seeing live. i saw a clip the other day of an old JRE ep with Duncan, it was great. reminded me of what the podcast used to be like, couple of guys talking shit and being funny. now every podcast is like a super serious interview. where Rogan is trying not to cause offense. also correcting the guest every 5 seconds, that shit is grating. needs Trussel back on asap.

I think rogan was on trussels podcast yesterday or something. Saw trussel tweeted about it

Maybe Walsh is a racist name for whiteboys in Japan, like Gringo in Mexico.

tanaka-kang was amazing. thought tanaka barely took round 3, but cant be mad at the decision.

I'm putting 5 units on hunt motherfuck everyone else, also putting 1 on gomi. Jury's a beast but i'm a gomi fanboy+ that 1 hit quit.

Managed to hit arlovski too last weekend at 2 units, HA. How bigfoot was a 4-1 over anyone is beyond me, dude's been ko'd before and it's the hw division.

Glad I wasn't a pussy and arb out because of that weight issue! Man this thread was really on roys d, don't know what you guys saw in him. He struggles mightily any time he can't get his opponent to circle left. And as far as ground game, I've had faith in Hunt's ever since i bet struve against him. I was so positive struve would tie him up and sub him with ease but he survived with the pasty dutch octopus and blew a couple different parlays for me.

Who was on Roy besides Jib?

Paper trail posted one of the most laughable fight breakdowns i've ever seen earlier in this thread.

Bumdeal · 09-20-14, 10:07 AM

Last night started terrible and ended fantastic for me. Was still a losing night though, put myself in too deep of a hole early.

Fading Caceres was the bet of the night. That line was a head scratcher.

Jury/Tate/Lim/Horiguchi was the parlay that payed here.

Walsh robbery really screwed up my night and cost me a profit. That one hurt.

Jib and Paper were sure that Hunt is a can. I tried to tell them otherwise.

Get it into your head. He was DUE for a win. You don't think W/L patterns are functions of skill do you?

I love when fish like you sit down at my table. Have you ever considered that red is winning so much for a reason? According to my data, on win streaks of three or more, red wins 57% of the time. Roulette isn't like sportsbetting where you can watch tape as a crutch, it's about split-second decision making and intuition. Only the truly elite and gifted gambler beats roulette consistently.

Yes he's an absolute genius

Wow, that's even worse than I would've guessed. Dane Cook is funnier than that.

Yeah. Amir looked like hamburger after the fight. Close to a stoppage.

I felt like Walsh looked good in some of the fights, but in others he was clearly outmatched.

I never understood Hicks' appeal, although admittedly I haven't seen a ton of his work. His stand up seemed less funny and more angry and preachy.

Not a big hicks fan myself; just thought Rogan would be similar due to the whole libertarian angle.

I do like some angry and preachy comedians though. I was at Carlin's last show a few days before he died.

Carlin just did it better, Hicks was kind of a discount knock off in my mind. Very preachy but he has excellent points on most of the issues he touches on.

I heard he was kind of out of it at toward the end though, any truth to that?

And yes, Rogan is cringeworthy

Carlin? No, his last show was terrific, as edgy as ever, he looked old for the first time, his posture was quite poor, but he was terrific. I believe it was two days before his death IIRC, I've got the tickets laying around here somewhere, it was at the Orleans in Vegas.
