Canada's rate of child obesity in children is rising - CSN Stores maybe the answer

 

It's no mystery why American kids are fat. They love fatty foods, sitting on the couch playing video games and WATCHING sports; as opposed to playing them. So here's an idea to make sure our beloved Canadian children do not follow the path of our southern friends. I'm on a site right now, called swingsetsandmore.com. It offers brand name swingsets, bikes, trampolines and tons of other accessories for bargain prices. CSN Stores has over 200 online stores where you can find anything you need whether it be swingsets, fitness equipment, or even cookware!

It's pretty dope, actually.

If your kid doesn't like sports or finds themselves not fitting in with athletics at school, you need to hook him/her up with a trampoline! Provides endless physical exercise and tons of fun! Haven't you seen gymnasts' bodies? They're unreal.

If your kid is already over weight, a swingset will help them develop a fit core and build leg strength to get rid of that nonsense and become healthy and comfortable again.

SO - Here's the deal:

KO's and Oks for the UFC

Chael goes to jail.

 Well, maybe.
Dana White has put Chael Sonnen's career in the UFC on hold after Sonnen had been convicted of money laundering. He illegally transferred $69,000 into his account; how? I don't know. Something to do with plumbing. But it happened. Read more here.

In a press conference yesterday, Dana White made the right call by announcing that Sonnen will be put on 'time-out' until he gets his personal life together. Sonnen's manager also made a statement saying Sonnen plans on complying with authorities (UFC and other) in order to make this event go over as smoothly as possible. 

A good move on Dana White's part since the UFC is still struggling to enter their ideal market and join the ranks of the cable TV network that includes the NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL. However, as White tries to legitimize MMA more and more, his efforts are still quite different from other leagues. Simply banning an athlete from a fight may actually be more detrimental to their career than in any other sport.

MMA fighters have a maximum amount of fights that they are allowed in a year. In fact, UFC fighters range between 2-3 a year to 12 times (once a month - if the doctor clears them and rarely does this happen). In considering this, top pay-per-view fighters are looking at $500,000 (GSP made $400k for UFC100) at contract; including bonuses and not including endorsements. For someone of Sonnen's caliber, provided his sponsor(s) drops him, he may be missing out on between $200,000 - $300,000. 
My favourite part about this - he only laundered $60,000. That's not even half of what he could of made at UFC 128.


Here are my predictions for UFC 126:

• Middleweight Championship bout: Anderson Silva (WINNER) vs. Vitor Belfort^[1]
• Light Heavyweight bout: Forrest Griffin vs. Rich Franklin^[1](WINNER)
• Welterweight bout: Jake Ellenberger vs. Carlos Eduardo Rocha^[1](WINNER)
• Light Heavyweight bout: Jon Jones (WINNER) vs. Ryan Bader^[1]
• Bantamweight bout: Miguel Torres (WINNER) vs. Antonio Banuelos^[1] 

Well there you have it. I'm out.

And remember...when you're in the eyes of the public: it's better to be safe than sorry.
