Welcome back kids. Now that most of the Gonzo Compadres have recovered from their varietal trips to SXSW, we're back and getting down to it. Well most of us anyway.

Cheescake of the Year...again! It's that time once again kids. That's right, its the only time of year that Dan Fogelberg gets any regular airplay. Thank the gods. It's also the time of year when we look back and see where we've been and where we're heading. It was another good year for the Gonzo … Continue reading GonzoGeek’s Top 10 Posts of 2010
We already know Jonathan Brookins and Nam Phan will be in the semi-finals. Who will join them? That's what this week's show is all about. They've saved Bruce Leroy's fight for the very end, presumably to milk every last bit of his irritating personality before disposing of him (see also - Slice, Kimbo). Our first … Continue reading The Ultimate Fighter – Season 12, Episode 10
Well, it all comes down to this doesn't it? After weeks of fights and injuries tonight either Court McGee or Kris McCray will the the Ultimate Fighter. Both guys have had a rocky road to the finals. McCray fought back into the competition through the wild card fight. McGee got a second shot when he … Continue reading The Ultimate Fighter – Season 11, The Ultimate Finale
We're down to four. In a special two hour show, we are scheduled to get the two semi-final fights. You know what that means? That's right we'll find out who our finalists are. You know what else it means? Right again. Lots and lots of filler. The show opens with new coach, Rich Franklin, taking … Continue reading The Ultimate Fighter – Season 11, Episode11
With only one fight left, this week's show featured the guy we love to hate, Jamie Yager, taking on Josh Bryant. Yager has talked trash for the entire series. Unfortunately for his opponents, he has backed it up with some sick knockouts. Tonight he takes on the guy the housemates called Spongebob Squareback. Yager has … Continue reading The Ultimate Fighter – Season 11, Episode 10
The first thing we see when the show opens is Tito Ortiz telling his fighters he needs surgery on a slipped disc. Sounds more like he's trying to duck Liddell to me. I'm just saying. Tonight we were scheduled for two fights. The first one was Kris McCray and Kyle Noke. The two guys took … Continue reading The Ultimate Fighter – Season 11, Episode 9
When last we checked in with our Ultimate Fighters, several personnel moves led us to the precipice of the quarter finals. Before we can get there we've got to go through the wild card fight. New to this season, the wild card fight gives a pair of fighters a second chance to advance. Last week, … Continue reading The Ultimate Fighter – Season 11, Episode 8
Well, May sucked. Let's just leave it at that. I got behind on everything, including these. I plan to make up for that tonight. I'm forgoing a live viewing of tonight's 2 hour finale in order to write my reviews of the four episodes of TUF Season 11 I missed. When last we convened, there … Continue reading The Ultimate Fighter – Season 11, Episode 7
We're back again, and so is Chuck Lidell. Having retaken control in our last episode, Lidell is in charge of setting the penultimate first round fight. In doing so, he chooses Nick Ring (Team Ortiz) to take on Court McGee (Team Liddell). Ring was Ortiz' first overall selection and Tito feels pretty good about the … Continue reading The Ultimate Fighter – Season 11, Episode 6
