I'm not sure how many of you have noticed, but we've been having some trouble with our hosting company for the last few weeks.
It came to a head today when we were down for most of the morning and early afternoon.
There's nothing more frustrating to me than sites that are too heavy, load slow or lose connections. And it drives me up a wall to know that I actually operate one of those sites.
Especially, when I want to post some news or update the site and I can't!
I just want to let you know that we are working on fixing the problem and should hopefully have a great resolution in the near future -- so bear with us, please.
We want your experience here to be a good one -- not a pain in the ass.
Thanks for your understanding, patience, support and participation.

While I have your undivided attention, I just want to mention that you may have noticed a special contributor to UFCmania the other day, Jesse Holland.
He wrote a fine piece on Randy Couture's decision to come out of retirement. Click here to read the post.
Hopefully, it's something you are going to see a lot more of here at UFCmania -- and not just from Jesse.
I'm sure you guys and gals can easily tire of my news, rants, site updates and all the other nonsense I'm responsible for on this site.
The truth of the matter is that I have my hands full with a lot of different projects and I don't get as much time as I would like to really write some critical stuff.
I also enjoy reading other opinions on subjects, especially when they are well put together.
Long story short, I just want to thank Jesse and let you know that we hope to have more contributors like him on UFCmania to give you different perspectives on the UFC.
Also, expect a lot of good things from us down the road. We've got some great things in the works that will make daily your visits here that much better.
Yes, it is possible ;)
