Dana White to Sports Illustrated: “If you don’t know anything about what you’re talking about, you probably shouldn’t talk about it”

Click this link and you will be sent to a video containing arguably the largest collection of fools and dullards to ever discuss MMA. As that famous line in Billy Madison went: “What you’ve just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.”

I think that sums it up nicely. If you want the brief description of what went on in that horrifying link above, it was basically four imbeciles thinking the UFC was WWE. It’s tough to watch, and today, Dana White got his revenge, kind of. Sports Illustrated brought the UFC president back on the show just so he could talk down to them and call them dumb dumbs. It went well.

“I honestly thought you guys were calling to apologize because you were embarrassed at how ridiculous your show was,”

“Now as I sit here and talk to you, you’re even more ridiculous, and I’ll bet you this whole interview doesn’t see the light of day. If your producer’s smart, he’ll take this tape out and throw it right in the garbage so the world can’t hear what I’m saying to you right now.”

“If you don’t know anything about what you’re talking about, you probably shouldn’t talk about it,” “That sounds like a really good idea. That’s why you’ve been getting smashed by fans and why I smashed you yesterday at ESPN. Because if you’re going to talk about something, you might want to do your homework and know what you’re talking about, or at least you might want to have at least seen the fight so somebody on that panel would have had half a brain to say, ‘You know what, I saw the fight. The guy was viciously knocked out. How could that be fixed?’

“The conclusion of your roundtable should be that you guys should do your homework and understand exactly what it is you’re talking about. And if nobody watched the fight that day, you should at least know the sport is regulated. At least know some general things about the sport. At least do your homework.”

This concludes our pointing and laughing at SI for the day. Man, those people get paid a lot of money to act that dumb.
