QUOTE MMA fighter Vasquez dies weeks after fight By Dave Meltzer, Yahoo! Sports Sam Vasquez of Houston may have become the first fighter to die from injuries sustained in mixed martial arts competition in North America. A report by The Fight Network cited the Harris County (Texas) medical examiner's office confirming Vasquez's death at 8:15 p.m. Friday. The cause of death was not released. Vasquez had been battling for his life since taking a hard right to the chin from 21-year old Vince Libardi on Oct. 20 during a Renegades Extreme Fighting show at the Toyota Center in Houston. The blow knocked Vasquez out and he was rushed to St. Joseph Medical Center, where he stayed until moving to hospice care on Monday. The 35-year-old Vasquez was competing in the featherweight division (145 pound weight class) in the third match of a 12-match card promoted by Saul Soliz, the longtime boxing coach of Ultimate Fighting Championship superstar Tito Ortiz. The show was overseen by the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation. Calls to the department on Sunday were not immediately returned. After taking a flurry of punches from Libardi, Vasquez collapsed in the ring and the fight was waved off at 2:50 of the third round. Emergency medical technicians worked on him in the ring for several minutes until he suffered what appeared to be a seizure and was rushed to the hospital... This is a tragic loss...but I fear opponents of MMA (McCain, among others) will seize upon this tragedy to renew the ban debate. =/ -------------------- |

So what happened? Did the refs really give the Patriots the game? No. The Ravens penalized themselves to death and made a bunch of other boneheaded plays. The players were saying it was obvious ref bias when the Patriots got a second chance to go for it on 4th and one. No, morons, look at the replay and you can clearly see your idiot coach signaling for a time out before the ball was snapped. On the second fourth and goal the Ravens DB mauled Welker in the endzone giving them another first and goal. Then the Pats scored and Bart Scott flipped out and got an unsportsmanlike conduct 15 yard penalty, then he got another unsportsmanlike conduct 15 yard penalty when he picked up the refs flag and threw it into the stands, then he had to be restrained by his teammates because he looked like he was gonna murder the ref in the middle of the field. Watching the Patriots kick off from the Ravens' 35 was hilarious. That's what lost em the game - Bart Scott being a dipshit and other uncalled for and undisciplined play. -------------------- ![]() ![]() |

Yeah, refs didn't blow it for them. The only SEMI questionable call was the defensive holding called on the watson play... but it wasn't any worse than some non-calls that favored baltimore. They basically screwed themselves out of stopping the patriots 3 times on that last drive.

I should have started Peyton over Romo, and I should have benched TO.

pats game opened at 27 pts.... geez The spread could be 47 and I'd still take the Pats and the over. Seriously, how are they not scoring 80 points here? You don't attempt to humiliate Bill Belichek and get away unscathed. They're gonna run up the score like a motherfucker and the postgame handshake between Belichek and Mangini might reinvent comedy as we know it I'm fully expecting the Pats to do something crazy like declare the punter inactive for the game. That would be hilarious. "Just know this, Mangini....We aren't punting this game." That would be the greatest psychological mindfuck in sports history -------------------- ![]() ![]() |
