About SoberDude »

I've been a big fan of MMA since the very early days of the UFC. I support my local sports teams, regardless of how good or bad they may be, or how heart-breaking seasons may end (Vikings 15-1 season).

I also support the local MMA fighters in my area, so that means I am a fan of Brock Lesnar, Sean Sherk, Roger Huerta, Brock Larson, Brett Rogers, etc.

My day job has me sitting behind a computer all day, although I don't have much time to write. My primary reason for being on Bleacher Report is to read all the great and not so great articles that interest me. I do appreciate the time and effort that goes into writing on this site, I know it can be very time consuming.

SoberDude commented on The Great Debate Part Two: Is Brock Lesnar No. 2?

Given the chance, Lesnar at 100% will smash Fedor. Fedor is afraid of the competition in the UFC. Fedor in the UFC will be Crocop part...

Now you are just delusional...Maybe after Brock trains another 5 years and Fedor goes through 5...

I have just published a battle cry for (LSU) Tiger Nation. It's a must read for Tiger fans and it might be my best literary effort to date, I hope everyone will enjoy regardless of team or sport affiliation.

I really like your P4P list. One concept I would like to see though is a top 10 list, regardless of weight. That would provide plenty of discussion. Thanks.
