The Internet is all abuzz over Dana White dropping some F-bombs on a helpless little Sherdog contributor. We here at Bullshido have our own spin on the subject, which I recently posted in a thread in our MMA Forum.
The gist of it is that Dana White's rant is OK by some of us. In the interests of appeasing our advertisers, however, we're going to fill up another paragraph or two talking about it so that our own F-bomb laden commentary isn't showing up on the front page of our website.
Regardless, I'd like to personally congratulate Dana White for having the testicular fortitude to express himself directly and without reservation.
Here's the post:
You know what, BRAVO Dana. I'm so fucking sick of people using the mealy-mouthed "you're mean" attack on people who speak their mind and call out bullshit bluntly and directly. It's something my 9 year old does when you tell her something she doesn't want to hear; it's shameful for adults to try and use the tactic.
MMA is a sport for grown-ups, involving grown-ups, and is targeted at a grown-up audience. If "fuck you" offends you, then
1. Watch another sport. Might I suggest the Ultimate Hugging Championship?
2. Fuck you.
Sherdog's built their audience on half-witted individuals providing "analysis" (emphasis on the anal) of a sport in which few of them actually participate. If Dana White wants to call bullshit where he sees it, he's under no obligation to pull punches or play nice.
If more people would call it like they see it, the world would be a much better place. Sure, some simpering, milquetoast, mouthbreathers would have their poor widdle feewings hurt. How much more efficient would things be run if we implemented a Fuck You policy? Here's an example:See how efficient that would be? No wasted words, no inferred meanings, no dicking around. So what if feelings get hurt, your feelings shouldn't matter past age 12 anyway. Besides, a few hurt feelings would be a fair trade for a society in which fewer people hid behind false niceties to snipe from the safety of what's "polite" with their crappy input. Stupidity, in any form, deserves no respite, no shelter, and no sanctuary. That's the core of how we do things around here, and everyone on this website either agrees with it, or spends a lot of unproductive time pulling their panties out of their crack.
Good for him.

From the office of the President of the United States
Dear AIG CEO:
Fuck you. Get your goddamn shit together or I'm going to play basketball with your fucking nutsack. You've got two weeks to unfuck this situation or there will be hell to pay.
Fuck you again,
Barack Obama
