Monday Night Open Mic

Howdy Blog O’Doomers!

Hope your day is going well. It’s pretty rainy and grey here so a nice night to make some chili or stew and lay under a blanket to read or watch some TV.

So I guess C.M. Punk signed with UFC. First I’m curious if Punk is a guy that can move buyrates and second I wonder how desperate Dana White is to get those buyrates.

Does Punk have any history as a fighter? I heard he does some BJJ but I don’t know. It’s not like the signing of Brock because Brock had some serious credibility based on his days as an All-American heavyweight wrestler.

Anyway I wish the guy well and I think it’s good on him for doing something he clearly wants to do and has a passion for. I’m sure he’s not going to be given the toughest competition to start but I’m not sure Punk is the big money-drawing star White think he’ll be.

Speaking of Lesnar, here’s a match of him back in the day with Shelton Benjamin as the Minnesota Stretching Crew.

TV Tonight is:

MNF is Packers-Falcons
It’s Slammys Night on RAW
7 NBA Games, Cavaliers are at Brooklyn
3 NHL Games, Pens-Rangers is the best bet there.

President Obama is on Colbert tonight.

Keep it clean!
