This isn't people.com or perezhilton.com so stop acting like teenage girls. Three hours of MMA with a card stacked like that is a dream. If you're going to bitch about commercials then not only should you stop watching MMA, but sports in general, and dont stop there, but leave this country. Our capitalistic society is built on marketing and promoting your products and selling those products to the masses. Yes, ads ruin the overall experience, but they are a necessary evil. If you want you beloved combat sport to blossom to the size of NBA, MLB, NFL, etc, deal with it. Buy a g-d DVR box and your sports-viewing experiences will change forever. This site is for talking about fights, not crying about commercials or debating about other dumb shit. I can't believe I actually got shit on the other day for posting Kimbo/Tank actions shots. Those were awesome photos and someone whined about "giving too much exposure to Kimbo" Shut the F up. cmon guys, you have nothing better to do than to bitch about how much the other guy is bitching?

Your first instinct is to bitch about a positive change in the sport. See the difference? But hey...if you want to be miserable while watching it, enjoy! “You realize of course, that you’re complaining about complaining”

I don't look at life in absolutes. I can be happy about the extra hour of programming, and I'm very happy about this card. It really is a good one. At the same time, I can also be critical of the amount of commercials they're stuffing down our throats. Hope this clears up my position for you. “Is it not possible for you to just be happy with the fact that you get to see more fights and this is an excellent direction SpikeTV is taking?”

that’s what i didn’t understand..

but yea.. i agree with you, Evan.. but what’s worse than the fact that THEY [and i'm saying that because, although i'm an MMA fan, i don't complain] do complain the most.. is that they complain about nothing..

like.. commercials.. i mean, hell.. there was a lot of commercials during the SUPER BOWL also… why wasn’t that bad?? why is it sooo wrong to show commercials during cable fights??

i mean.. now, they’ve upped it an hour.. so you’re going to see more fights than usual.. no matter what..

so why STILL complain??

I may be alone here but it just seems that nobody complains more than MMA fans. I visit NBA, EPL, NFL and MMA forums daily to see what people are saying (again maybe it's just me) and it seems like nobody complains more than MMA fans. I am probably setting myself up to get flamed pretty hard here but so be it. “elaborate??”
