Erin Andews drunk at Super Bowl Party

Here is an embarrassing video of ESPN's Erin Andrews drunk and talking to a model named Brooklyn Decker. You can tell Andrews is totally wasted and she is very annoying as she tries to joke around with Decker.

Video of Countdown to UFC 143

UFC 143 lacking in star power

UFC 143 takes place this Saturday night in Las Vegas at the Mandalay Bay. I was looking over the main card and was surprised by the lack of star power on this Super Bowl weekend show.

Fans might tune in to watch Nick Diaz vs. Carlos Condit but the other four fights on the main card leave a lot to be desired.

The weak co-main event is between Roy Nelson and Fabricio Werdum. I like Werdum but I have no interest in this fight. It is Werdum's first fight back in the UFC since he lost to Junior Dos Santos a few years ago but this match-up with Nelson didn't pique my interest.

The other three fights are Josh Koscheck vs. Mike Pierce, Renan Barao vs. Scott Jorgensen, and Ed Herman vs. Clifford Starks.

The mainstream MMA fan will not know any of these fighters except for Koscheck. Who are the rest of these guys that are supposed to entertain us at UFC 143?

Barao could be a star as the guy is on a huge winning streak and is a legitimiate contender in the bantamweight division.

Pierce is a wrestler who might be in over his head against the veteran Koscheck.

I don't think the Herman vs. Starks fight will be talked about or tweeted about on Twitter and it certainly won't be Fight of the Night.

The UFC has had too many shows lately and there seems to be an event every single week of the month. This is all fine and dandy if there were enough star fighters on the roster.

Unfortunately for the UFC, Tito Ortiz is on his last legs, and Chuck Liddell and Randy Couture have retired.

Even the prelim cards seem diluted now and filled with fighters you will never see or hear from again after a few fights in the UFC.

UFC President Dana White always says that the media and fans are "idiots" if they judge a card before the card happens but he is wrong about that.

It doesn't matter if Starks and Herman put on a good back-and-forth battle because most fans want to see their favorite fighters in the cage and not fighters that people don't care about or never heard of.

Fans won't pay for the pay-per-views or watch the shows if they don't know the fighters or care about them.

Why do people like to watch Chael Sonnen fight? Sonnen makes people care about him and they watch his fights not because he is the greatest fighter in the world, or the most entertaining,but because fans want to see him win or lose due to his crazy persona.

I still remember when Sonnen was just a regular fighter on the UFC roster who had no personality and didn't create controversy. He was boring and his fights were boring and hard to watch as well.

Once Sonnen opened his mouth and became controversial, fans started to notice him and now he is a full-fledged star.

The UFC needs more star power and UFC 143 is severely lacking in it.

Video of the dunk by Blake Griffin on Kendrick Perkins

Here is the video of Blake Griffin's dunk on Kendrick Perkins. I know Twitter is abuzz over this "dunk" but I am not that impressed at all.

Griffin is 6'10 and he made a two foot shot. Now if he starts making 3s, I would be impressed. I rather see 6'10 Kevin Durant make shots than Griffin get his dunks.

If a smaller guy like Nate Robinson dunked like this on Perkins, then I would be amazed. This dunk over Perkins, not so much.

UFC on Fox 2 was a huge disaster

UFC on Fox 2 was a huge disaster as fans inside the arena were leaving during the main event,  and viewers watching on Fox were probably switching channels during the two-hour broadcast last Saturday evening.

The prelim portion of the card in Chicago actually had some decent finishes but all three fights on the Fox broadcast went to a decision.

I don't know whose idea it was to have Demian Maia vs. Chris Weidman as the first fight on the show but it wasn't a smart one. Maia was supposed to face Michael Bisping but Bisping subbed in to fight Chael Sonnen after Mark Munoz was injured in training camp.

Weidman was the late replacement for Bisping.
Fox and the UFC could have substituted Maia's fight vs. Weidman for one of the prelim fights such as Lavar Johnson vs. Joey Beltran or Cub Swanson vs. George Roop.

Both of those fights had knockout finishes.

It is kind of funny how fans were complaining how the Cain Velasquez vs. Junior Dos Santos fight was too short on UFC on Fox 1 and now they are complaining about the three fights going the distance on UFC on Fox 2.

Fans are not just complaining about the lackadaisical fights on the broadcast but also about the many commercials and on-air talk between the Fox broadcasters.

The first fight did not start until after 20 minutes into the first hour and there was only one fight in the first hour. Talk about a good way to drive viewers away.

The UFC and Fox should have a high-profile fight to start off the show next time and maybe fans would continue to tune in to the whole show.

Skip all the on-air talk between the broadcasters and maybe there can be five fights shown live instead of just three.

Spike TV was showing old UFC fights during the Fox broadcast and those fights were vastly more entertaining than any of the fights on Fox.

Let's hope the UFC will have a better show this Saturday night when UFC 143 takes place in Vegas.

Ray Lewis Speech after the loss to the Patriots

Here is a one-minute video of Ray Lewis speaking to his teammates right after the tough loss to the New England Patriots last Sunday thanks to a missed field goal by Billy Cundiff at the end of the fourth quarter.

This shows how great a leader Lewis is and although the loss hurts, his speech is still very powerful and puts things into perspective.

Female MMA fighter Jordan Garza doing a muscle up

Here's a video of a hot young girl named Jordan Garza doing a muscle up. A muscle up is tougher to do than a pullup or chinup. I see guys try this move at the gym all the time and fail.
