McCall pretty much out of his league in this one. He is a great prospect, but Aldo is elite.

Ridiculous. McCall just couldn't get anything going. :-/

[The Rocketmen]

Just like real life. Except in real life, Aldo's win comes with a one-year injured reserve.

[The Sandmen]

Kind of...except when you do that to yourself. Then it comes with a "Why the fuck did I just pay $60 for that?"

[The Rocketmen]

Yes, never do those crazy crazy things.

[The Sandmen]

Then I won't, and that problem is solved.

Back to task, though, I still think McCall has a promising future here and I am excited to see where he goes from here. When Hansen got destroyed by a who's who of the top ManMMA LWs, he rebounded to win the belt. What's next for Ian? Time, as they say, will time. Is that how that goes? Yes.

The saying is "Time will tell" actually... and I agree, to an extent, or else I wouldn't have picked him up, but it did take 36 points into Hansen to get him the title, could be more than that for McCall, unfortunately. :-/ That's just based on other things I've done with my other fighters,

[The Rocketmen]

I prefer time will time. Because it is also a true statement.

Time After Tell, by Cindy Laughter.

[The Rocketmen]

I think that song would have been more known had she sung it that way instead. But all she can look back on is a song that is hardly known by anyone. Including Father Time.

[The Sandmen]

I went to a Lauper concert at the casino. Twice. She was good. So bite me. Hahaha.

[The Rocketmen]

I don't enjoy putting things in my mouth so stop requesting it.

I also enjoy Lauper.

[The Sandmen]

Take this!

(puts keys in your mouth)

[The Rocketmen]

Mmmm sour keys. They are super.

[The Sandmen]

Now I put week-old honey in your mouth. It's on a stick of dynamite. Fuse lit. Held by a cerbil wearing glasses. All of which are also in your mouth.
