Lol, enjoy fatherhood. Your first I presume? You’ll never be the same. Dirty diapers is the easy part. It’s the raising ’em that is hard. Good luck and God Bless, Tom. MTU

Man, and I was hoping for a new server….

Man, and I was hoping for a new server….

Thanks.

We just upgraded our server. Everything is lightning fast for me. Anyone else having issues with the site being slow please speak up. Thanks.

Again congradulations UFCmania. Looks like your kids will have a birthday close to one another.

Well bud good luck, my girl is due in September…

Not your first? Even better. Growing up an only child sucks, take it from me. I had to join the Army to get brothers. Jesse will do a fine job.
Boy or girl? I have a daugher only, but she has other sibs thank God.

Baby girl and a boy on the way (God willing).

Well congrat’s man…..hopefully it won’t be too long though..even soo…i trust your judgement on your temporary replacement…
Salute

gratz to the new addition to the family.

enjoy the time you have off

congrats on the soon to be addition to the family
and its stupid to say but if theres anything i can help with around the site lemme know id be more than willing

Congrats, hope your child and wife will be safe. I’m a fan of what you do here. I am however a little dissapointed that you are leaving the keys to the castle to that Jessy guy. I don’t enjoy his posts and little articles, I try not to read his stuff. I don’t agree with much he says, and he is constantly negative and insulting. He is judgemental, and it’s not fun to read, especially when he is putting down stuff I like (just look to the last thing he just wrote, I didn’t enjoy him saying that Never Submit is ill-conceived, that wasn’t necessary, it just makes him sound like a big mouth when he puts down stuff he has no business putting down). So Jessy, buddy, keep your crappy opinions out of the news you’re supposed to be reporting (save that for the posts if you have to) and you should do fine. Just the facts please…

Congratulations on the new addition. I only have one child as of right now, but we plan to improve upon that over the next few years, as long as we can afford it. I hope that we have girl, because my wife said we will not stop until we have one. As for Jesse, we love his articles, and maybe I can get him to post mine :) You never did message me back on that to at least give me some criticism.

Have a good vacation and enjoy the family

Chris Valentine

Congratulations from Fightstalker!

Congrats!

I don’t post much but have been checking this site at least three times a day since november and I would like to congratulate you. Kids are alot of fun and change your perspective on everything. I’m having my second the 31st of this month.

Congratulations!

Here’s a tip I picked up from the waiting room at the doctor’s office. I haven’t had the opportunity to try it but here you go anyway:

If mom wears a perfume, have her use it asap continually after birth to get baby accustomed to it. Then spray the crib when baby gets home. He/She will smell her, and sleep a little more soundly letting mom and dad get at least a few extra minutes of much needed rest.

Hope that helps, congrats again!

Congrats on having baby Mania. Hope to see you back soon.

Thanks for all the time you put in here and Congrats. I think we will be ok for a time.

Don Dunne, is that you?

I like how you slam me for being negative and insulting and then spend the rest of your post being negative and insulting. I guess the whole Goose/Gander thing is your approach to dissent.

And it’s Jesse, not Jessy. And yes, I am a big mouth.

CONGRATULATIONS!

Congratulations!!!

Have no idea who Don Dunne is, wrong on that one. I should have known you would have some kind of response. I don’t want to get into a back and forth with you, I really do hope you do a good job. And part of doing a good job in reporting news is being objective and factual. Not everyone shares your opinions or enjoys your insulting things, so in a news article, in breaking a story, leave it out. Post it after seperately if you feel the need so badly, that way readers can chose not to read that part. I know I won’t (of course running down Tim Sylvia is the exeption to the rule…) Good luck!
p.s. didn’t mean to spell your name incorectly, Jesse.

Man, so far I find most of his articles to be well done. The one thing I have noticed with any Journalism today, is that is not always objective, and most is done in a more persuasive matter. This is a matter of opinions, but I really enjoy his articles, and so what if he mouthes off in comments, there are others here who are much worse.

Later
Chris Valentine

And yes, I am a big mouth

No news here, move along please. :D

DAMN YOU! UFCmania takes place above all else, God, nation and family.

P.S. Just to be safe: I am not joking.
P.P.P.S.S. I mean I am joking.

Oh, I am with Jesse on this one, I see his his articles as good nice column and I enjoy reading them.

Oooops I forgot. Congratulations to you and Mrs. Mania.

Congrats MANIA on the new addition.

take care of you buiness

congrats mania

Congratulations

Congrats

Congratulations man. I think you meant to say that you are at DEFCON 1. DEFCON 5 is standard peacetime. Oh, and don’t spray perfume in the babies’ crib.

Yes, that is what I meant to say. Thanks for the correction.

Thanks to everyone who has sent along their best wishes — means a lot.

If mom wears a perfume, have her use it asap continually after birth to get baby accustomed to it. Then spray the crib when baby gets home. He/She will smell her, and sleep a little more soundly letting mom and dad get at least a few extra minutes of much needed rest.

If dad listens to old MMA fights on DailyMotion, install Randy Couture bobblehead doll in crib with the audio, “I am Captain America.” Kids will grow up to start charities, beat up criminals, save the nation from ruin, etc.

Congratulations on the new baby, UFCMania. Just promise us one thing: you WILL come back, right??? I’ve seen too many people have a big change in their home and family life, only to neglect the other projects they had going on before it. Hopefully, you won’t follow the trend that I’ve seen.

Does this mean no cold medicine to make them cooperative on long airplane flights?

Sorry, this is why there’s no babies coming from here. If they survive infancy with me, how could I release something I raised on the world? I’ll start cleaning out the gene pool and opt out of that.

But I think you should totally try the Couture bobblehead. My 4 year old cousin runs around with eskrima sticks shouting kiti irsia! Can you tell that his father is a pekiti tirsia guy?

Congratulations! Having a child is always a blessed event regardless of how many you may already have. God Bless!

Does this mean no cold medicine to make them cooperative on long airplane flights?

No, but I do believe in a shot of whiskey with a beer chaser. No earlier that 2 though.

congrats on the baby man

Congrat’s to you and your family! I think Jesse will do a great job. Love your article’s (Jesse and mania), and if you want to provide some insite/commentary… that’s cool! It’s a free country, and it’s your site(temorarily) Mr. Negative (the closer) is entitled to his opinions, and if he wants to hate on everything, go ahead, but really that’s no way to live! I promise that if I hear anything interesting out of JMac’s camp I will pass it along…

Name the baby Andrew, its the only way to go haha

Name the baby Andrew, its the only way to go haha

I missed something…

What are all these congrats for? He hasn’t even had the baby yet. Lets all wait until the site goes to hell and it’s been 3 or 4 days since an update. Then we know he’s gone and he’s actually had the baby. Then it’ll be time for congrats.

j/k congrats and thanks for one of my most visited site.

Good luck with your child dude!

shadow……. ohhhh scarryyy

( Hmmm, what’s this big red button do? )

Great first day Jesse. I’ll go lightly, I’m sure you’ll hear about it enough! :D

Congrats! Mania! Kids are a blast. My lil girl already wants to kickbox. My boy has been boxing for a year now.

Congrats man!

Ive wanted to leave a general comment about the site for a while now, ive just never got around to it. anyway, this is a great site, i acually go to this site first, before any of the others(mma weekly, sheredog, etc…). keep up the good work and enjoy the time off, you desirve it.

shadow……. ohhhh scarryyy

come on man who’s the fake. why you using my name. its making a joke of my name and folk wont take my comments serious if this imposter continues.

Good Luck man

No, but I do believe in a shot of whiskey with a beer chaser. No earlier that 2 though.

My 7 month old son loves watching MMA. It sounds crazy, but by the mezmerized look on his face you can tell he actually prefers Pride FC. Other favs are monster trucks and supermodels (thank God!).
God bless your family mania. Parenthood is your highest calling.

Congratulations, Great website!

I hate to be unoriginal, but congratulations and good luck. I can’t argue with your priorities. That would be selfish of me. Plus, I trust Jesse will do just fine filling in.

I didn’t enjoy him saying that Never Submit is ill-conceived, that wasn’t necessary, it just makes him sound like a big mouth when he puts down stuff he has no business putting down).

Actually I do have business putting this down.

I had the opportunity to read an advanced copy of the script for Never Submit and trust me when I tell you, calling it ill-conceived is probably the nicest thing anyone will ever say about this movie once it’s released…

Hey, congratulations! I’m sure the site will be in good hands.
