There's been a lot of frustration lately in combat sports, but then you get Alexander Volkanovski.
To me, he's the closest thing we've ever had to GSP. The way he conducts himself, the way he fights, the way he's evolved, and the way he's never changed as a human being.
Three years ago, the vast majority of us thought he was done. He gets finished by Islam, comes back four months later and gets finished again. Nobody thought he'd be able to figure it all out.
Not only did he figure it out, he won the belt back, defended it, and just stopped the previously undefeated Movsar Evloev in the second round. All at 38.
I'm absolutely blown away by this guy.
He is everything we love about combat sports. The best fighting the best. A champion who does things the right way, who carries his country's flag with pride, honor and dignity.
We're gonna miss this guy so much when he's gone.

For 28 years, 69-year-old Rick Taylor has gathered tickets from Cal Ripken Jr.’s 2,632-game streak spanning 1982–1998. Now only eight away, the retired salesman’s 16-box basement collection — each ticket labeled and shielded — ranks among baseball’s most notable. Taylor never anticipated reaching single digits, yet he feels confident about finishing.

Ilhan (if that’s her real name) got exactly what she asked for..
And since she got it, the level of confidence she speaks with has changed.

I’m firmly in the camp if you have to stay awake for 36 hours before kickoff so you don’t die from a blood clot you should probably skip playing that game.

The Jalen Hurts situation should be the end of international games for the NFL. These countries do not care about the sport. They’re not forming their own leagues. It’s just a money grab with mostly Americans who want to travel abroad in attendance. Is it going to take a player dying to stop it?

Your parents may not have given you everything you wanted.
But they probably gave you everything they had.
Make sure they know how grateful you are.

The fake news spent a week DESTROYING Katie Zacharia for calling herself an attorney.
But Abdul El-Sayed has spent years calling himself a “physician” with no medical license and no residency, and the media is completely silent.
The double standard is obvious.

The town of Fairfield, NJ gave approval for a Muslim school, with a cap of 90 students.
5 weeks in and they already got busted for flooding the town with HUNDREDS more.
Here's the infuriating exchange:

The degree to which people in the West fall prey to suicidal empathy continues to astonish me.
Read @GadSaad’s book about it!

The "far-right" is developing flying cars, spaceships, and epic military technology.
The far-left is sterilizing themselves, killing babies, and a death cult that does nothing but destroy.
We are not the same.
