    I haven't really got an opinion one way or the other but this does make him seem hilarious.

    I think he's a mouthpiece. :D

    Does he still think he could beat Mayweather in boxing?

    I know what fight I want to see next. McGregor vs. all those people in that video. Jesus wept.

    In fairness it's an MMA fight he said he'd beat Mayweather in, he actually said Mayweather is unbeatable in boxing, but he'd fight him anyway. It will never happen in a million years of course

    He is a mouthpiece, it has made him a millionaire.

    There are plenty of really really good UFC fighters that won't make as much money in their entire careers compared to what he's done in 3 years.

    He plays 'the fight game' to perfection. Media whore that backs it up (I don't think he 'didn't back it up' vs Diaz, he swung and missed though). He's basically taking WWE tactics to the UFC to drum up more attention, more sales, more money.

    If saying he'd beat Mayweather in Boxing adds another $100k to his paycheque, he'd be mental not to say it! Words are cheap, why not sell them for silly money!?

    Well, I finished Making a Murderer, and it was crap. Tedious by the end. Good TV, but from an objective, thorough, logical, coherent, scientific point of view - just crap. If I had to listen to any more of the dreary Avery family members, I'd go mad.

    This guy has gone to some effort to present the other side of the story.

    All I'll say is that an incorrect rape conviction does not equal a thoroughly upstanding citizen, angel-like, who would be a saint in another life.

    No one comes out of it looking good. He's probably guilty, the policy are probably corrupt, the judge was an arse. Just makes me glad I'm not American.

    Never had to rent a car from Dublin airport but I always use Hertz when I fly to Glasgow. Never had any trouble with them.

    Although one time they did give us one of these weird looking machines...

    Do you remember I said three weeks ago that I was going to attempt a half marathon in three weeks? Well it's tomorrow... I will get over the line. The run starts at 10am and the matches starts at 13:30am. So as long as I'm finished within three and a half hours.

    I felt the same by the end. They're making a second series!

    Which I'll skip.

    I'm listening to "Serial" on the way to work, at least it's balanced, and I'll probably take Greta Massive Saliva up on The Jinx.


  • Administrators Posts: 55,090 Admin ✭✭✭✭✭awec


    I think the second series is about a different case.

    I find Dooleys great to deal with, I've rented from them ten or more times the past couple of years.

    Good luck. I'll be getting up at about 10am to cook a fry up before heading to the pub.

    I imagine you just have the sound of SH rugby playing through all the halls in your house to help you relax, like:

    Tucker and Dale vs Evil. Hilarious film forgot how much I liked it.

    Also on Prime, Lucifer is pretty good. Vikings is immense and Black Sails is... still watchable.

    Netflix - House of Cards!!!! New season such a big fan again. And still Californication :D

    (I've been working away with work so literally beasted out so much tv... and Rome Total War)

    I know people say Heroin is very addictive. But clearly these people have never had pistachio nuts.

    The person who came up with Pringles' catch phrase was actually eating pistachio nuts at the time.
