Not hit either...if I did it would be Big Country. Don't see how Werdum can TKO/KO or sub him so only way I see him winnin his decision

I agree but I see werdym using the same gameplan as the big foot fight

Going big on Nelson, small bets on Scotty and Starks. Probably won't play anything else unless Thompson opens at evens or better

The Fobfather · 01-29-12, 09:07 PM

I like the Roy Nelson pick. Don't think Werdum offers anything on the feet and Roy Nelson can more than hold his own on the ground. Seems like the early money is on Werdum though.

I almost feel like the linesmakers are setting a trap for casuals who will see a big, fat Nelson vs the guy who beat Fedor and jump all over Werdum.

The Fobfather · 01-29-12, 10:40 PM

Wouldn't mind getting Nelson as a dog.

BTW, Prop Joe, I'm assuming you're a fan of the best tv show ever? (The Wire).

The guy who beat fedor was meaningful til two other guys easily did it. Hell, werdum is the guy that almost got beat by fedor now.

Wrong!

1) The Wire
2) Look Around You
3) Workaholics
4) The Thick of It
5) Spaced

Workaholics, ahhhhh, thought I was the only one who watched that show. Probably the only show on Comedy central that I care to watch.

Season 2 started out slow but the last few episodes were great.

illmatick · 01-30-12, 01:24 AM

Personally think Breaking Bad has run its course. The First two seasons were pretty epic though.

Show absolutely kills me. Wife and I have to pause at least once an episode so we can recompose ourselves. Sometimes she even makes me Eggs Tyrone.

Watched this clip 30 times and still can't make out the whole thing.

I wasn't really thinking of comedies. I love Workaholics. I see the main dude from it at the comedy clubs here in town. It's a great show, but I can name better comedies: Freaks and Geeks, Arrested Development, Party Down, Trailer Park Boys, The In-Betweeners, Louie, Curb Your Enthusiasm, Extras, Always Sunny...

Are you kidding me? The last season was incredible.

I'll give you Arrested Development, should be on my list. Never got the love for trailer park boys though. Watched one episode and was bored out of my mind.

I felt that way about "Spaced" - I couldn't get through the first episode. I paused it and planned to continue watching later, but never did... Have you seen PARTY DOWN? I think you'd dig it. It's streaming on Netflix.

gabe · 01-30-12, 01:52 AM

Shit, I can't believe I forgot about The Larry Sanders Show

ONE OF THE BEST!!

Yeah, I've seen all of Party Down, it's good and I like all of the people in it, but its mostly forgettable.

I think to get into spaced you have to grow up a comicbook or sci-fi nerd.

Have you watched Look Around You? It's way nerdier than spaced, but the concept is terrific. It purports to be a science educational series but the facts are all quite wrong.

Bless you ants. . . Blants.

haven't seen, though i love peter serafinowicz

PARTY DOWN was the SHIT son! Most under-rated show out there. U remind me a bit of Roman DeBeers, Gabe!

lmao i'm nothing like him. i guess the only character on that show i can somehow relate to his henry.

Vitooch · 01-30-12, 03:30 AM

Breaking Bad is the best show on Tv!

Boardwalk Empire is incredible also. Havent finished season 2 but so far i am very impressed.

Its Always Sunny is my favorite comedy. It's dumb humor done absolutely brilliantly. Soooo many hysterical clips on youtube. 30 Rock is also excellent. Anyone watch Spartacus?

gabe · 01-30-12, 03:34 AM

I stopped watching 30 Rock a season ago. Kept getting worse and worse.

First season of the new Showtime show HOMELAND was pretty sick.

Kaladarus · 01-30-12, 11:58 AM

What's going on with Nelson as a dog? I really like him in this fight as many of you do. The bookmaker line seems to be moving up and down with slightly more action on Nelson. 5Dimes opened Nelson up at +105 and increased their starting limits to $250. Not sure this line will stay with Nelson as the dog, but we will see. Locked up the +105 right away.

I see too many advantages for Nelson here. I think he will be able to control the fight and keep it where he wants it.

, think I missed this episode.

Agree with Homeland, solid writing for sure.

Beelzebubzy · 01-30-12, 12:23 PM

Homeland had a weak ending IMO.
Dexter was really weak this year as well.

I've seen quite a few who feel the same way, personally I thought the addition of Colin Hanks character made for an interesting story. It was perhaps not as good as some of the previous seasons, though still good and fun to follow IMO.

I´m also a fan of Workaholics! And Sons of Anarchy is quality.

Beelzebubzy · 01-30-12, 12:49 PM

After this discussion we should rename UFC 143

UFC 143: Showtime

I wanna watch Luck on HBO, suprised all of the Degens here are not mentioning that yet

Vaughany · 01-30-12, 12:52 PM

Tht the Michael Mann one? Starring Rainman

Beelzebubzy · 01-30-12, 01:08 PM

Yes, Nick Nolte, Denis Farina, and The Dustin Hoffman-Focker

gabe · 01-30-12, 01:50 PM

I think Dexter has sucked for the past two seasons. It sucked during it's 3rd and 4th season too but then made up with it with that John Lithgow 5th season.

SONS if pretty good, but I'd recommend people watch The Shield before that. Takes place in the same TV universe.

illmatick · 01-30-12, 01:54 PM

Spot on about Dexter. Seasons 1,2 and 5 are the only ones worth watching. Did they even use the same writers in the last two seasons?
