This is a great card! :up: I love your lack of commitment Barn! :lol:

So who are you going for?

These are mine (although not saying they will win, just who I want to win)

Henderson
Ramage
Petis
Akiyama (pretty sure if he doesn't win this he may be out of the UFC)
Kongo

Word. Very seldom do I actually "root" for a particular fighter, so I don't have much of a vested opinion in who wins these fights. The only one that I maybe have a slight preference toward, would be Joe Lauzon; but really, I just hope they're exciting fights that further the guy's careers. And this card really does have some great match-ups. I get the feeling that somebody in the Hunt v. Kongo matched is going to get KTFO.

As far as coming over, I'll try and let you know, Nate. You'll have to do your best to remember though, that I have a wife that loves to watch UFC also, and that we have five children that require our care. Leaving the house to go watch UFC, isn't always our wisest option. =)

I would be down. Champs changed their deal up a bit. They no longer give a food credit. Still a good place to watch the fights. There is also a place on Arapahoe and 25 called Finn McCools that we have been going to now that JDs doesnt show the fights anymore. I think they charge as well.

Either way we should get a head count an make a reservation.

But yeah how can I forget this, you bring it up everytime I invite you for any UFC :lol: YOU need to remember though that it is not easy to set up this when people won't commit and not about to buy the fights for a chance someone comes over last minute. Just got to think both ways man.... :dunno:

Either way we should get a head count an make a reservation. No way! They must have changed this recently then! Last fights I went to Red and Jerry's instead (had terrible food though), so must have happened on the last fight...how lame!

I am down for whatever man, so we will check it out as we see if more people are interested! I am watching these fights regardless, but would be nice to get a crew to wacth them together again like the old CSC days!

Alright, screw it.... If you guys want to come over and watch them at my place, then call your mom, cause it's on.

The PPV is on me, and I'll try to get Tanya to cook up something good. Ya'll can bring the beer!

Oh yeah... I normally start watching everything very early, so I'll have the (streaming) Facebook prelims going, and the FX prelims. :up:

Edit: I live near the intersection of Arapahoe Rd. and Potomac (think ~3 miles E. of I-25). You can PM me or give me a ring for more specifics.

So, what's going to happen is at least one of us will show up, we'll get engrossed in the fights, and then you and your wife will slip away for a while? You paying for the PPV is the babysitting fee, correct?

J/K. That's mighty nice of you to offer to host.

Nice, thanks Barn, you know Eileen and I will be there for sure :up:

If anyone is not sure where Barn lives and is close to Belleview and Santa Fe we could always car pool or meet up somehere on the way! I will be getting there early as I watch ALL the fights too.

Ha! I hadn't actually thought about that until now, but I'll keep it in mind! :lol:

So yeah.. If anybody besides Nate and his girl, and Mdub are planning on coming by, just do what you can to post up or let me know somehow. When I broke the news on Tanya last night, she only asked that I let her know how many she's cooking for! :yumyum:

I'm in for Saturday. I'm not familiar with the FB CSC page and I hardly ever check FB anyway. Barn - can you PM me the address.

How about if we all pitch in for pizza or chinese food instead of your wife having to cook?

As far as food, we can do whatever. Maybe Tanya can make a little something for the early arrivals who like to watch the prelim fights, and then we can do pizza/chinese later on for the PPV fights. As long as there's beer, I'll be happy.

Just got home from riding, wife and kid are gonna get a shower we will grab some beer and head your way. Any official decision on food yet?

Sat Feb 25th, 2012, 05:37 PM
Sounds good Grim. Tanya is prepping some chicken enchiladas that should be ready in the next hour or so. If that's not everybody's cup of tea or whatever, there's always pizza and Jimmy John's!

I heard from Nate about 35 minutes ago, and he's on his way.
