The Ultimate Fighter Recap: Wife Addition

Hubs and I have a pretty set list of shows we watch.  My show:  Gossip Girl, One Tree Hill, Life Unexpected, Greys, Private Practice and Army Wives.   Hubs:  InuYasha, Monster, Archer, UFC, and House.  Shows we agree on:  Dexter, Cougar Town, Modern Family, The Big Bang Theory, and the entire Thursday night lineup on NBC.

Hubs will watch all my shows with me.  I usually curl up in the nook and fall asleep during his shows (normally because we watch his shows after my shows and I’m normally pooped.) 

One of Hubs’ favorites--The Ultimate Fighter.  It started last night and I of course fell asleep.  I got sucked into this show last season but Hubs kept fast forwarding during the good parts…you know the parts where all the tough fighters act like 15 year old girls in the house.  “He never helps out,” “He’s such a little wussy,” “Were you talking about me behind me back dude?  So, not cool!”

Anyway, since I’m still not working and there is nothing to watch in the mornings I had plenty of time to watch last night’s episode when I got up.   

My favorite moment? 

Norman Paraisy:  People say that French people are pretty soft or are an easy fight.  And I can tell you, you are wrong and after this fight I think the mindset of people about the spirit of French fighters will definitely change.  In a good way.

He was fighting James “the sledge” Hammortree.  Firefighter/EM T (and super hot---sorry Hubs)

First round James was getting it done.  Punches, kicks, takedowns, elbows.  James totally listened to Tito the entire fight and was definitely winning but it wasn’t a total domination by any stretch of the imagination. Norman barely bleeding (just a tiny bit on his nose) was holding his own. 

First round over:

Norman:  I’m done.  I quit.  I’m finished.  I can’t.  I don’t feel my legs.  I don’t want to fight anymore.

Seriously Norman?  What are you talking about?  You agreed to go on a show called the ULTIMATE FIGHTER!    I’m pretty sure you probably had to sign a waiver or something legally informing you death is a possibility in the octagon.  I’m sure of it.  I had to sign one every year before I went to cheer camp; I’m certain Dana White has that same paperwork.  He’s no dummy.    (Even you might not believe it based on his fight commenting ability…more on that next week!) 

Dana was totally making fun of Norman after the fight too:

Dana White:  So, Norman’s big thing was to come on this show and prove to the world the French aren’t a bunch of wussies.  (big eyes, big eyebrows) hahahahahahah.  He better look for another job. 

Sorry Norman.  I don’t think you are going to be the next Ultimate Fighter.  Or even a fighter at all considering all of America saw the almighty Dana White making fun of you….

Anyway, I’m officially looking forward to all the dramatics these boys bring this season.  And Hubs, if you are reading this, there will be no fast forwarding through the good parts—that would be the parts in between fights---the fights are my least favorite part, you know that….
