livejournal: OMG, last night's episode of The Contender was soooooo gOoD!!!!

Blogger: Seriously. If you've never seen the show, this week's episode (Andre Eason vs. Walter Wright) will be playing sporadically on ESPN for the next week. Check it out.

livejournal: THX soooOOO mch to the anon. commenter who recogniZed ystrdy's fish.

Blogger: After joking that the fish was maybe an alligator, J.C. searched the Internets yesterday afternoon and decided the fish was a shortnose gar, relative of the alligator gar. The commenter, though, pointed out that the fish is actually a sturgeon, "the prehistoric fish that never became extinct." And the commenter, it appears, is correct. To think, I had prehistory right there at my feet.

I have hurt myself from laughing at you this morning. I have only been awake for ten minutes. See how much I love you, that I come here with my hair all messed up and sleep still in my eyes? That's dedication. Or else it means I have no life, I'm not sure.

The Contender is great. And I'm totally a fan of Wright, although I think he needs to tone down the theatrics inside the ring.

Thanks, Fringes. I should have required everybody to comment in each mode.

Rebecca, you could at least brush your teeth before showing up--or use some Scope or something. But messy hair and sleep in your eyes are acceptable.

Dave, Wright was totally solid in that fight. So precise. But I can't imagine anyone watching who didn't want the little guy to come through. Those blows he was attempting to land, though, despite the slow-motion and musical effects, were mostly blocked by Wright. Such manipulation. Which is why it's so good.
