Due to recent time constraints I’ve found myself in the annoying position of having more to rant about with less time to actually rant. That led me to pondering whether it’s possible for me to rant faster. Often while ranting I veer off on a tangent for several paragraphs before (occasionally) returning to the point.
My biggest fear is that by speedranting I’ll cross a fine line between ranting and raving. If I do cross such a line, please pretend this rant was called, “An attempt at speed raving” and that it was a huge success.

YYYYAAAAWWWWWWNNNNNNNNNNNNN

As long as I don’t hit the snooze button and go back to sleep for another few weeks I’ll be doing a lot of updating (and a bit of ranting) over the next few days. Year end events (and the first few from this year) are updated and ready to go live.

Wouldn’t it be nice to have an event where after it’s done we just talk about wins and losses? Here it is the day after the ultimate fighter finale and at best the winner of the season is the number three story. Seems kind of silly to me, so I’m going to start off talking about the winner…

Recently I’ve noticed a growing trend of people trying to claim someone can’t be “top 10″ because they haven’t beaten “top 10″ people. As a whole the term “top 10″ is incredibly flawed, but I’m going to try to navigate it as best I can during this rant while I explore this perception that some MMA fans have.

There is a situation brewing that I think is semi-interesting (slash) semi-retarded. I’m going to layout what I know, speculate on what I suspect, and then hopefully have someone set me straight…
