Getting there…

Sorry for the lack of updates. Hang in there, I’ll have a lot more in the upcoming weeks. As for tonight, you have Hasim Rahman and Wladimir Klitschko and the finale of The Ultimate Fighter. I’m taping both, so don’t tell me anything. Also, something needs to be said about the great cruiserweight battle between Steve Cunningham and Tomasz Adamek on Thursday night on VS. Even on a “dead” week, we’ve had some good battles. Be back Sunday with more thoughts.


Hurricane Ike still doing damage…

Personal post here. Hurricane Ike didn’t just wreck Texas. It has hit hard back home in Ohio. While there was no rain, the winds got to as much as 80 mph and knocked out the power in more than 1 million homes in the Dayton-Cincinnati area.

That includes my parents. The phone reception has been awful at best and nonexistent at worse. Please keep the Ohioans in your thoughts and prayers.

It’s not getting much national news, but my Ohio brethren have gone four days without power. Doesn’t seem much in contrast to what some others will have to go through, but it’s still something.

To my Ohio brothers: you’re in my thoughts.
