UFC 143 Diaz vs. Condit
Well based on Fightmetric, I was wrong on round 3. They gave it to Condit in a close round. They have round 4 being the most dominant round of the fight. They do however have Condit outlanding Diaz 151-105 in significant strikes.

UFC 143 Diaz vs. Condit
And to prove how bad MMA judging can be, the two judges who scored the fight 49-46 gave the 3rd round to Diaz.

UFC 143 Diaz vs. Condit
IMO rounds 3 and 4 (for Condit) were by far the easiest rounds to score in the fight. I'm not sure how anyone could give Diaz the 3rd. Is it really octagon control if your goal is to push your opponent into a corner and punish him, yet everytime you get him there he escapes almost immediately' And regarding the effectiveness of Condit's strikes, I will be surprised if the stats don't show Condit landing more significant strikes than Nick.

(UFC 1/28/12) Munoz hurt...Now we get to watch Chael destory Bisbing instead woohoooo
Do you just ignore the strikes he throws' He landed 214 total strikes (39 significant) against Marquardt in three rounds. Against Okami, he landed 144 (91 significant) in three rounds. Those are pretty good totals. I agree that he isn't really a finisher, but to suggest that he didn't dominate Marquardt or Okami is silly.

If you want to boost your case by using the cageside judges as a comparison be my guest, but given the past record of terrible decisions in the UFC I certainly wouldn't.

(UFC 1/28/12) Munoz hurt...Now we get to watch Chael destory Bisbing instead woohoooo
Did you guys look at the Fightmetric report at all' Or are you just choosing to ignore it' In the first round, they have Chael outstriking Bisping 43-23 in total strikes and 24-13 in significant strikes. Add in the 2 takedowns and that seems like a pretty clear round for Chael.

No, it is 3 rounds because it is not the main event. Additionally, I'm pretty sure this show is 2 hours long.

The Finals: Best Picture Nominated Film Bracket 2000-2010
You say that Chigurh isn't unique, yet every character you compare him to is inhuman in some way (monsters and fantasy characters). Chigurh is a human, plain and simple, yet he encompasses all the traits that would normally be assosciated with fantasy monsters. Michael Myers would be the closest thing to a human from the group you listed, but his inability to be killed makes him inhuman.

You really think Buffer would accidently add that in' Seems a little absurd since he is reading off a card.

You think that a sane person who has been wrongly accused of murder would be doing cartwheels in the courthouse (or precinct) shortly thereafter' I guess we have very different definitions of sane.

Who here has floated in a sensory deprivation tank?
Not sure if you are aware of this or not bfactor, but Rogan has actually debated with some NASA guys before regarding the moon landing. I'm pretty sure it was on Penn Jillette's radio show, you should be able to find it on Youtube.

1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1-1+1+1+1+1+1+1x0 =?
Not that it matters as far as the actual answer, but no they are not understood. The parenthesis are either there or they aren't. In their absence the multiplication is done before the addition because of order of operations, not because the parenthesis are "understood".

Top 5 players in the nba right this second
Very true. I don't know if he was mentioned once in this thread up until your post, and yet it is hard to argue that he isn't in the top 15 in the league. At the same time there are guys who don't crack the top 25 getting named in people's top 5.

NBA All-Star Weekend
While I agree that all 4 guys did a great job, I don't really think it's a good thing most objective people would probably say the contest was a little rigged. If anyone can watch Demar's first dunk and Blake's second dunk (the whole performance, including all the misses) and honestly tell me that Blake deserved a 46 and Demar deserved a 44 I'd be surprised.

NBA All-Star Weekend
There is no way Blake Griffin should have made the finals. Even if we ignore the fact that his first dunk got scored too high (a 49 on the 3rd attempt after he dialed down the degree of difficulty), how does his second dunk beat DeRozan's first dunk' They both took multiple attempts to dunk the ball of the backboard (Blake's from the side, Demar from underneath), but Demar actually threw it down between the legs while Blake pretty much just powered it through. And that doesn't even account for Serge getting robbed on the free throw line dunk. Based on just their first 2 dunks, Blake probably ...

P90x
Is the P90X workout mainly good for losing weight, or is it also useful for people who want to tone up/add a little bulk. I'm currently about 5'8", 155 lbs and am looking at starting a workout based on getting in shape rather then losing weight. Any suggestions'

Ndamukong Suh: Beastmode
Based on this, it would seem as if you never watch the NFL. It has been part of the refs job to protect the QB for years now, and has been a point of emphasis for the league. Not really arguing one way or the other on this play, but your statement is just blind to the way the NFL works nowadays.

one of the best catches of all time (baseball)
I find it amusing that somebody would take the time to make that Top 10 catches video, yet on the #2 catch it says "Enter subtitle text here" and the #1 catch says Game 7 World Series when it actually happened in the NLCS.

Re:Reminder: Survivor ...
IMO this sums it up perfectly. The challenge in Survivor is not just to make it to the end of the game, but to make it there with enough support to win the million dollars. Is Russell one of the most interesting players to play the game' Sure. Does he have one of the best game strategies for getting down to the finals' Definitely. But the game of Survivor is not solely based on those things. What makes it so interesting is that you have to balance the fact that you have to vote people out and then get them to vote for you. As was said last night, that is basically 50% of the game. And ...

Just to be clear, you do realize that 3 of the 8 teams you listed don't meet the criteria you posted in the OP, as Minnesota finished below 0.560 and Philly and St. Louis were below 0.580 at home. What was your reasoning for including these teams'

Not that I necessarily disagree with your point, but this is a terrible example to use to justify your reasoning. By all accounts I have heard George Washington was a fairly intelligent person and he felt there was great value in having slaves.

Re:USA hockey line
You do realize that arguing about the score in a game with checking allowed between a Men's and Women's hockey team is completely pointless, right' Women's hockey is played without checking, and any game between a Men's and Women's team would be played under those rules.

Re:my craps bet that is poker related.
While you didn't say that you thought the poker bet was a bad one, putting this: "so now if you have read the blizair post in poker discussion do you think the shove is plus EV'" at the end of your OP implies that you are trying to show that they are both -EV plays.
