    The RPS Championship

    So I'm scanning through the channels and I land on ESPN.

    The Rock, Paper, Scissors championship is on. This is not a joke, this was not a commercial.

    If anyone saw this and heard the commentary - it was comedic gold.

    Such gems were heard such as; "He's dominating with the slick paper, Trevor."

    "This is the greatest moment ever in RPS history."


    "They must be tired here, rock is the easiest move to make here in RPS. The excitement here is titillating."


    Among others.

    That's a clip from the 2006 series. I don't know if these commentators are scripted or serious or what but I was fucking crying watching this. If anyone can find a clip from the 2007 please post it.

    Every UFC match I've watched in the past ends up in grappling matches. That's boring to me. Have they changed the rules since then? I remember someone talking about that but I think they mentioned another league.

    Don't know when the last match you've seen was. Personal I like all facets of the fights, but if you just like striking I'd suggest Pride Fighting Championships(not completely all striking but more of it imo) and Chuck Norris' World Combat League(stricly Muay Thai kickboxing competition), Fox sports network and Versus channel respectively.

    Yeah Chuck Norris league was the one someone mentioned.

    UFC was like, the last matches I saw was before Ken Shamrock and that other guy went to WWF. It was awhile ago. Could never get into it after seeing every single fight go to the ground and become a grappling match.

    People always think RPS is simple luck and random until I look them in the face and say, "Pick rock motherfucker, I dare you!"

    Re: The RPS Championship

    Anyone catch the arm-wrestling competitions on ESPN? Not sure which one, but probably something like ESPN78.

    It's insane. They've got like little hold bars, and one of the competitors, this middle aged dude, totally screams his head off every time he goes up to wrestle. The guys sounds like he's about to jump over the platform and tear your throat apart with his teeth.

    Re: The RPS Championship

    I watched this because i didnt wanna drop $50 on UFC >.>

    I laughed my ass off when the dude came out with 2 oven mitts and and boxing robe. He lost and blamed it on the lighting rofl. The chick with the tats and big tits was fucking smoking hot. The announcer and the big ass titties are the only things that made it watchable.
