It was brought to my attention that Acetruth and Hostile are now team mates, and I had scheduled them to fight each other at JFC 25.
So I talk to my team and twsjajms and Showdown both agreed to break their matchup in order to take on Acetruth and Hostile respectively, in order to help me avoid a match between 2 guys from the same training camp within my team.
So, the new matchups will be:
acetruth23 vs twsjajms
Hostile vs Showdown
The other 6 Team Cast fights will remain the same

This was your plan all along. How unprofessional.

It shows lack of preparation and unprofessionalism no doubt.
At the same time he is lucky I could care less about his matchups.

Well it is obvious he wants sHOwdown and Ace to make it into the house.
The sad part is I see twsjajms pulling off a HUGE upset and taking Cast's golden boy out before he even gets a glimpse of the house.
sHOwdown is a cream puff. Nuff said.

Yes meat, mimicking someone is the highest form of flattery imo and its clear Castella saw the err of his ways and decided he should make the matchups similar to how his Hero Buffaloblue did.

Very true. I still cant believe he cant see twsjajms as a contender and he thinks "feeding" him to his boy Acetruth is the right thing to do.
WWBBD?

I aassume Castella will be wearing one of those in Vegas and looking at it before each bet or major decision.

Without Andre Castella is nothing. Even Andre told me that by PM the other day.

So meat tell me, do you take BB's balls out of your mouth before you speak, or do you just mumble your words?

This may or may not be true on several levels
In the end - I have only 4 jfc fights(I'm 2-2) with 3 of those being decisions and 1 sub lost to Lightsout84 by 10 points.
This whole thing - from the pick process forward - has been a display of how personal feelings play significant role - despite some people(particularly buffaloblue - not so much castel who has been nothing but professional) saying it is all about business and the best will do this blah blah blah.
BB has been the epitome of someone who can't keep his emotions in check which will likely lead to his team losing this(whether I lose or not is irrelevant in that regard)
Just fyi - I did go back and check my points in the 4 fights I've been in compared to those of the teams - if you have time, it may be interesting - I had one very off night(ufc 94 where most people had an off night) other thant that, It is interesting to see the 3 other fights vs the current cast.
Ace is very good though and I am glad the switch was made for me to fight him - Ace is one of the best - if not THE best fighter selected to participate - he has good, high point wins, and his 2 losses were close. He is one of the few that if we had gone head to head the last few fights would have had a decided advantage over me - its a big opportunity for me - the fight with Showdown(and if I had been fortunate enough win) would have been big just because of name recognition - but with all due respect, Acetruth23 is better.
To Recap
BB is an emotional whiney 12 year old girl in the body of a 40 year old man
Showdown is a good fighter and has my respect - and I hope he wins so we can be team-mates and possibly meet further down the road(after we eliminate all the other teams)
Acetruth23 is imo the best fighter attempting to be in the house
I wish ace and all the other fighters good luck from castellas team
Everyone on the girly-mans team has my condolences

Not sure why you cant understand this, it was spelled out in plain english.
BB = girley man = numa numa guy
Yes Ace just happens to be the best fighter trying to get into the house. The #'s say so and they don't lie

The numbers mean that he has picked well, and has been matched up with fighter that didn't pick as well, or that Ace has had better luck. If he is in fact the best fighter, then why have JUF at all? Just declare Ace the winner now and be done with it. I for one do beg to differ that Ace is the fave. No, it is not me either.

I expect all 16 of my fighters to push for a place in the final
On paper, Ace is the best. But he still has to prove it.
On paper, I am certainly not the best fighter in the JFC. But I am champ
Personally, the numbers mean f--- all except for ranking purposes. It all comes down to the night. If he ain't good on the night, he will lose. Because twsjajms will bring it. I honestly don't care who wins my 8 fights, as long as the 8 people that get into the house push themselves to be at their very best, for every fight.

On paper, I am Joe Scarola. I come from a good camp, have great submission skills, but when it all boils down to the big picture, I will leave my team and house, to go home and get a nice slice of tang.
