My reel game is mid, but damn, if this wasn’t a career highlight, I don’t know what is.

After a decade in tech/media, my career and one of my other passions (combat sports) finally met.

@tscpod Nice helmet

[Drew Maartensen @DrewMaar10sen]

@Sports_Alien_OG Yeah this aged like milk

[Drew Maartensen @DrewMaar10sen]

@ElonovMMA @acdmma_ Because they’re negotiating their next broadcast deal. Tom and Jon won’t fight until after that gets done (if they do at all)

@ChampRDS @TheNotoriousMMA Never seen a body shield like that in my whole life but 🤷🏻‍♂️ crack on

[Drew Maartensen @DrewMaar10sen]

@DovySimuMMA Conor

@willnitze Couldn’t agree more. They’ve jumped the shark. The smugness is off the fucking charts, South Park SF episode levels.

And I actually liked getting the righter-than-me perspective, purely because it was outside my existing echo chamber. The neo-con bashing was music to my ears.

@MmaUnderdogz People will pay to see Suga. It’s really that simple.

[Drew Maartensen @DrewMaar10sen]

@scottsimnz @seanfrank This 1000%

@acdmma_ Watered down PPVs by far.

Honorable mentions: the judges, the light heavyweight division, the hilariously bad gloves (eye pokes), the lack of effort when promoting or building fighters and rivalries, the posters, no fighter sponsorships, no cool walkout gimmicks.

@krispykriskring @elonmusk The Cummins engine is fantastic. Awesome rig.

@orenmeetsworld Man, reading thru the comments, the amount of people willingly going without insurance is wild.

Saving a few hundred each month is in NO WAY worth the risk of ruinous amounts of medical debt.

Believe its the number 1 cause of bankruptcy in the US

@TurnerNovak Isn’t this cybersquatting / illegal in many cases?

@shainadenny @msuster

[Drew Maartensen @DrewMaar10sen]

@shainadenny @msuster I would be shocked if someone’s not trying to monetize this. Especially given how many comments there are looking for the shirt lol

[Drew Maartensen @DrewMaar10sen]

@rsrouse Really appreciate this take.

So much hustle porn out there that preaches the “burn the boats mentaility/approach.”

Nothing wrong with using the time outside of 9-5 to build something on the side. Especially once you have mouths to feed.

[Drew Maartensen @DrewMaar10sen]

@shainadenny @msuster Is it ethical to use peoples likeness to sell a shirt without their consent? Even if they’d potentially agree with the message?

[Drew Maartensen @DrewMaar10sen]

@shainadenny @msuster AI ads w/ deep faked celeb endorsements hocking a drop shipped T shirt is pretty fucking sus. Even if we agree with the message/sentiment

[Drew Maartensen @DrewMaar10sen]

@theownerop The comment section delivered 😂🤙🏼

[Drew Maartensen @DrewMaar10sen]

@jappleby yo @harleyf wtf is this?
