Jad, you have always written with an open mind. I enjoy the fact that not everything has to be about the UFC with you. With that being said, Ive been heading up the Affliction page. I was hoping to talk you into bringing your flavor into that particular community. Would you be so kind as to join the group, and chime in if ever there were a compelling topic that interests you? I could really use your contrasting style. Thanks and take care. TJ

Hey Jad,
If you can do an interview tomorrow at 4 pm ET with Bellator rising star Lyman Good, could you let me know ASAP? It's a great chance to interview a great fighter, and it'll only increase our good standing with Bellator. Thanks.

No problem Jad. As I said, I thought you presented some good arguments. I especially liked your idea having two refs in the cage. What do you think the odds are to ever see that in the future?

Jad,
thanks for the comment and great analysis bro.
I'm doing a new series called "You be the judge."
similar to the old group articles I used to do. I want you in on this. I just need a paragraph on what you think Rampage needs to do to defeat Machida.
