Nick Diaz is one of the most exciting fighters in MMA. He has alot of heart and goes balls to the wall. I think it's a shame his win over Gomi was nullified because he tested positive for marijuana.
"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."
Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

WHAT?!? Let me get this straight...he tested positve for weed, and they took back his win?!? Sh!t, if he was able to beat him while he was high they should have gave him extra kudos!...Dust 2 Dust said:

I prefer UFC over Pride for a variety of reasons. Pride rounds are too long and the fights are so poorly produced that it takes away from the excitement. With regard to fighters, both organizations are pretty stacked.
AHHHH I hate people who act like they know what they're talking about. Seriously PRIDE doesn't exist anymore, UFC bought it out. PRIDE when they used to host fights actually put more money into the production, do main card fighters get a special entrance in UFC? No? Thought so. PRIDE wasn't stacked, every good fighter left for UFC since they got paid more. The only good fighter left was few Japanese fighters and Fedor Emelikenko. So now technically UFC has better fighters.Menage a Mi said:

I can't stand retarded comments like this. you realize that thc metabolites remain in the fat cells and urine for weeks after you smoke, if you are a regular smoker. no pro fighter, especially not one as good as diaz, would smoke before a fight. he did say that he smokes after training to ease the pain and relax, instead of popping a bunch of vicodin or drinking. I have boxed high and not high, and i'm more crisp and aggressive when not high.Ken785 said:WHAT?!? Let me get this straight...he tested positve for weed, and they took back his win?!?

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

I know..it was too bad PRIDE killed themselves with shady business men. The entrances were beautiful...who gets an entrance with big titan trons flashy white lights and snow falling from the ceiling in the UFC?...no one.Nip/Tuck said:

I am well aware that UFC acquired Pride. When I was referring to the production value of Pride, I was not talking about how people enter the ring. I was talking about:Nip/Tuck said:
1) How during the TV show, the camera stops showing the fight and focuses on some random Japanese person in the crowd. When we are shown the fight again, a few minutes have elapsed. Its a crappy effect. Just show the whole fight, boring parts and all.
2) Sometimes the bright lights shine down on the mat and make the thing so white that it can be hard to look at.
3) Not that Joe Rogan has ever said anything intelligent, but the Pride commentators left much to be desired.

Are you kidding me. The few times that rogan did not commentate they had Randy coutoure taking his place and the show was not the same.
Joe Rogan knows his sh!t. He is a brown belt in jiu-jitsu and has an eye for the tiniest of details. Joe rogan is awesome. The best commentator in MMA by far.
Did anyone see the Penn stevenson fight? I missed it. I am excited about brock lesnar being in the UFC. I actually think he is going to do well. he is a division 1 wrestler with freakish strength. I don't know about you guys but I have beating frank mir. He will win by decision and the fight will be fought on the ground were Lesnar will be on top of him.
"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"
You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.
For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.
Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.
The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.
