Most Sundays, for me, are spent trying to both scrape myself up off a long week of work, as well as scrambling around running errands, cleaning my house and prepping for the next week while watching ppl enjoy relaxing Sundays on the socials… Today, however, I’m 1 of those ppl.
Every time I see someone sensationalizing dog attack stories involving pit bulls, I can’t help but wonder if they’re the same type of person who likes to point out crime when it’s done by a person of color (both disgusting btw) Makes me miss my best friend even more. The best 🐶
He just passed a car for going too slow. Make him catch every red light so that the guy he passed ends up right next to him. Make him feel the other driver’s smug satisfaction.
Mike Perry, who faces Nate Diaz at #MVPMMA1, is officially 1-4 opposite notable southpaws in MMA (W: D. Roberts; L: D. Rodriguez, A. Jouban, G. Neal, T. Means) He also fought and beat Luke Rockhold at #BKFC41, but left crosses remain Perry’s common culprit. #TheSouthpawReport
The problem with the “today is the day to do X” or “I can’t do X until I do X 1st” mindsets is that, at least in my experience, pitfalls wait around almost every corner, creating butterfly effects that keep me off course Anyway, today’s been spent trying to get a stuck 📷🔋out
I recently re-watched “THE KILLER,” so you know what album I’m rocking today:
Arrow mail day (except MallRats was extinct print and ordered via eBay and the package damaging shows🤦🏽♂️)
Might have time this weekend to finally start writing about my favorite films from last yr and hoping that it helps spark some creative juices for some more fruitful endeavors… Also cleared to train again despite my wrist tear… Good things hopefully ahead in both those arenas
Well, to the surprise of some and delight of many, my time with the Dog Or Pass Pod is over. It was just as much a surprise to me as it was to you that I even got the shot, but I was immensely grateful to Pat Mayo for the opp and gave my best. Please support the show and my guy Mad Lab MMA. 1/3
#UFC326 is special for me considering that the 1st fight between Max Holloway and Charles Oliveira was the 1st fight I ever broke down publicly via MixedMartialAnalyst.com Kinda embarrassing to go back and look, but proud to be doing this for a decade +: mixedmartialanalyst.com/ufc-fight-ni...

When you head into the comments section of a topic near to your heart with good intentions only to find yourself surrounded by folks co-opting your cause so that they throw more rocks at black and Jewish people:
