Oh shit, it's DJ Tet, the only tolerable Non-Casual Duke fan! What's up?

Also, I like MMA more than the No Fun League.

True story: 9/11/01

9/11 happened. We watched the events in history class. Rumors persisted the rest of the day but I didn't give a shit cuz they cancelled MARCHING BAND PRACTICE FUCK YES. So I went to mupepe's place, played some dreamcast (sonic adventure 2 and legacy of kain: soul reaver) walked home, got on the internet and complained that 9/11 would delay metal gear solid 2.

FIRST WORLD PROBLEMS.

THE NAIVETE OF A TEENAGER.

The glory days!

[Himu]

the commentators during yesterday's tennis matches reminded me.  I'm not thrilled to be so aloof because it's slightly messed up that I remembered the 9th as Dreamcast's 12th anniversary and not this.  At least no one cares about Final Fantasy 8's anniversary.

if not then, someone would start a "where were you when it happened?" thing.  Then a "When were you when Osama died?"

 

I'm pretty sure ff8 sold more worldwide than the dreamcast

[Himu]

I'd love to get into mma but don't know when the fuck it comes on

who the fuck watches spike?

I went to class, then to football practice, and then I went home to jack off to pornography.

[Himu]

i'm pretty sure i jacked off that day too

going to the store to get more beer!

beer day!

[DJ_Tet]

me: "wake up...you know what today is!"

her: "whaaaa...i'm not having sex at 6:30 with the kid up..."

me: "no, today is a very special day!"

her: "uhhhh, labor day was last weekend..."

me: "thank GOD *someone* forgot!"

I thought this was about the start of the NFL season. 

Prole doesn't like sports.

i'm not against sports: i watch mma and boxing from time to time. but national televised team sports? idiotic slow-moving pageantry for toads. the nfl isn't watchable by ANYONE with a functioning cerebral cortex. seriously, try and watch an nfl game independent of whatever stupid regional tribalism you tout like it matters (you underemployed fucks) -- it's barely and sporadically engaging like the dysentery shits, at BEST. and the dumb fucking chatter from the commentators? if you can endure that shit, i never EVER want to hear you mock george lopez again, because it really *is* the most inside tribal idiot humor and observation imaginable. fuck off, nfltards!

Which is exactly why I thought it was about the start of the NFL season.  The conversation is just as apt.  I guess it would require Prole to actually have knowledge of what made today really special, however.

Sup T, how's UK looking?  Duke looked strong on that China roadtrip, always fun to get an early start to the season.

Get good beer or I will SMH you to death.

[Boogie]

You can't mock the NFL and mention that you watch MMA in the same sentence.

Careful now, Gundam.....

I'd love to get into mma but don't know when the fuck it comes on

who the fuck watches spike?

UFC is coming to Fox and FX starting in November.

And who the fuck needs to know when MMA "comes on"?  It's the internet age, himumumu.  You look up the popular fighters, you download and watch their previous fights to get acquainted and interested in them.  Upcoming fights come on PPV every month, and so you get a bunch of friends together and split the cost of the PPV, or go to a bar to watch it.

OH MY GOD, THAT'S SO FUCKING COMPLICATED

[Boogie]

God no.  Man hasn't invented a sport as awful as soccer.

lol, soccer.

lazy. I'm going into this with the wrestling type of thinking. You watch every week and then they have a ppv once a month. so it'd be easier for me to get acquainted just by watching every week. but then every time i try to watch ufc, they have some stupid reality show thing on and I just can't give two fucks.

plus all my friends watch wrestling because they're feggits. not interested in ufc. but I'll research if it's FOR YOU, boogz.

I remember taking a break from homeschooling, walking upstairs and noticing no lawn care noise coming from outside. I figured maybe the onslaught of lawn care folks at various people's houses were taking a break, then I turned on the TV and saw the tower burning on every single channel. I didn't finish any more school work that day

[Himu]

I'm wondering how many other people started watch UFC in the 90's? Cause I started then. Even owned a Dreamcast game.

was all about wrestling in the 90's

[Boogie]

Weren't you like 9 when the 90s ended?

I actually only started watching MMA in 2002.

[Himu]

i don't remember mma getting really popular until like 2003/2004

[Dickie Dee]

In the 90s it went around as a taboo thing on VHS

[Himu]

I'd like to get into it because from what i've seen, it's like pro wrestling without the bullshit. having an interest in boxing and martial arts definitely helps.

[Himu]

I didn't finish any more school work that day

I was 17, I had spare in the morning, and was working in my uncle's tobacco field for the harvest.  I finished the work in the morning and went home to get ready for school.  When I got home my mom called and said that terrorists had crashed planes into the Twin Towers.  I turned on the TV in time to see the first tower collapse.

I then rushed to school.  The school had just recently installed TVs in every classroom, so the whole school day was spent watching CNN.  

[Boogie]

i don't remember mma getting really popular until like 2003/2004

The reality show The Ultimate Fighter aired on Spike in 2005.  That's when the sport began to get popular.

Agreed 100% with what you say about football.  I liked it as a kid because all my friends did.  Once I was old enough to think independently, I realize how fucking stupid it all is.  It's a dumb sport played by mostly dumbasses but commentators and fans analyze the shit out of everything and make it seem a lot more complicated than it really is.  Also, please STFU about how football is like going into battle.  

What's worse is that during football season, NCAA is in your face just as much as the NFL.  I don't get how so many people invest so much emotion into schools that they didn't even attend!   As much as I dislike the actual game, I'm 10x more annoyed by the whole culture of football.  People can't even give it a break during the off season because the're fucking sheeps that can't resist the forcefeeding from ESPN all year.  

[Himu]

I have no problem with football but I hate how it's in your face year round, even during off season. I try to catch up on my Astros to see how bad they played for the day and I'm swamped with football shit and this is mid-summer.

[Smooth Groove]

I wonder what Prole thinks about basketball.  My love for the sport has nothing to do with tribialism.  I don't have a favorite team but I hate the Lakers, my hometown team since forever.   It's the stunning athleticism and skills that entrance me.  I can watch a game as long as it's good basketball. 

[Himu]

in other words you wish you were a distinguished black fellow

how does it feel to watch basketball, smooth? watching those tight, smooth dark muscles vibrate before grabbing a rebound? do you get sweaty when you see a team run a good pick and roll? do you try to see the creases of their third legs when they do a slam dunk?

Sup T, how's UK looking?  Duke looked strong on that China roadtrip, always fun to get an early start to the season.

I saw that Duke in China game, you guys looked good. UK seems young but vicious, gonna be a goddamn good season all around for the NCAA Bluebloods.

Smooth Groove threw away 'murican football for the glory that is fat ronaldo

Fat Ronaldo was responsible for turning me into a football fan.

True but I loved watching crackers like Nash, Nowitzki and Bird as well.  I even find Jimmer Fredette pretty entertaining. 

[Barry Egan]

On 9/11 our high school history teacher said something like "whelp the world trade center is gone but we've got shit to do.  Open up your textbooks please.". Than a year later I made an emo post on neogaf about how that event revealed the truth about society to me and blahblah emo high school shit and drinky crow trolled the shit out of me.  :'(

My English teacher said the twin towers were gone through tears.

basketball's watchable -- the athleticism is on parade even if the showboating grows old in in the nba. since we lost the sonics it's never on in the bars here, which is the only way i'll watch sports on teevee.

[Great Rumbler]

you useless fucks should just put on your warpaint and your furry loinclothes and ook it up at each other without all this stupid pageantry gettin' in my face and/or airwaves, i could be watching reruns of simon and simon or something instead

Even if sports weren't televised, they wouldn't show Simon and Simon reruns, unfortunately. It would just make room for more brain-dead reality TV shows and NCIS/CSI/Law & Order spinoffs.

[cool breeze]

nothing about this is brain-dead (watch the volume)

Don't ever send me a porn PM again.

[Smooth Groove]

I didn't even know who Fredette was until you told me, fool.   It's his crazy almost half-court 3-pointers that intrigue me.  I'm surprised that his coach didn't chastise him for taking such shots even if they went in. 

[chronovore]

I remember, I think I was talking to my sister on the phone when the first news hit. It was entirely unclear what had happened, so I assumed someone had mistakenly plowed a Cessna into the tower, and everyone was up in arms about nothing.  While we were talking, the second plane hit, and I began to realize that something major was going on.

Wrath2X, you said it didn't affect the rest of the world, or wasn't really a changing point for the rest of the world. I'd argue that the viewpoint is very short-sighted. With 9/11, a host of personal freedoms were curtailed in the USA and a vast amount of additional resources were dumped into the military-industrial complex. The decade of military adventuring which has ensued has had a direct affect on many places in the world, and I'm certain that this change in policy for the country with the world's largest military budget has had an indirect affect on the entire world.
