I sometimes am not too bright, so I may need help with this one. How will I know if my Off Topic Post is really On Topic or will it be way off or right on, which would be off to be a valid post for this thread? Help me out with this dilemma.

I was never into fighting too much, but then I got EA's MMA game and started watching some Strikeforce on Showtime, and I completely fell in love with it. I love that it's so strategic and not just all about brute force. And the condition those guys keep their bodies in always amazes me as well.
I watch MMA matches once in awhile as well. Not sure if I will get the time to watch the match, but I agree with you that Shane's stamina is a little suspect Glenn.
Any hockey fans around here while we're looking at alternate sports? My Vancouver Canucks are just 2 games away from taking the cup for the 1st time.

Huge fan... Since mid 90's. The original Ultimate Fighting Championship was the best... Thanks to Royce Gracie
Here is a solid video for you all to laugh at, hehe
Canadian bacon is a pork product. The foods described by the term “Canadian bacon” are very different, depending on where in the world the consumer is. This can sometimes lead to confusion, especially for travelers. In the United States, “Canadian bacon” is a salted and cured meat much like conventional bacon. In much of Canada and Great Britain, however, “Canadian bacon” is an entirely different food, cured and treated in a different way before sale. Availability of the two different types of bacon varies, depending on one's location.
In flavor, appearance, and texture, Canadian bacon is closer to ham than it is to bacon. The meat is lean, slightly sweet, and juicy. Unlike regular bacon, Canadian bacon does not crisp up in its own fat while it is being cooked. The meat is meant to be served in a soft, juicy stage of cooking, and it will be dry and tasteless if it is allowed to crisp up. It is also usually served in thicker wedges than those used for conventional bacon.
That's just typical work ethic DD. They have never done anything the easy way and start to coast when they get cocky. You also have to remember that the Sedin sisters are upset because they are late for their summer vacation back in Sweden and going this far in the playoffs have ruined their plans.
I am sure the Canucks will prevail in the end. This is just the kind of frustration they have always provided us over the years.

On that last swing, if you stop the footage at the top of his swing, he's actually looking pretty good. He brings the club head back nice and flat (although I hate that dramatic wrist movement he puts in at the beginning), and he's obviously shifting his weight. But then it just goes all wrong from there, haha. So awful on the down swing. If he would just watch the video of himself about 50 times, I think he would realize what he's doing so wrong. But I guess some people just refuse to practice and learn.
And I'm sorry, Skinnie, but Charles Barkley will ALWAYS win for world's worst golf swing!
