Strongman lifting huge tireNorth America Deaf Strongman (NADS) Games is coming soon!

You probably have seen Strongman games on ESPN channel. I watched it few times and it’s very interesting.

No matter how big (bodybuilder or big guy) you are, its matter of strength you have. Believe it or not, you don’t have to be bodybuilder to enter if you are big and strong enough to play this game.

Those strongman players will play few games like pulling truck, tire flip, log lift, 18 inches deadlift, atlas stones, much more. It is hard than you think – trust me!!

We now have our own NADS which will give deaf and hard of hearing men and women opportunity to play for fun and prizes. Of course, the best thing you will be able to communicate with each other easily. It is no different between this game and other deaf sports.

NADS already got few strong sponsors line up – if you know someone who could sponsor this new NADS, please contact them directly at NADS@deafstrongman.com

If you know someone who is big or strong, tell them about this exciting program. Tell them you find out from my blog. Maybe I should participate – maybe not. Hehe…

UFC: The Ultimate Fighter

29 08 2005

UFC logoAnyone who loves to watch Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) will enjoy this new TV series called The Ultimate Fighter 2. It is similar to Survivor at Island, Average Joe, Americas Idol, or Hells Kitchen on TV.

Apparently I didnt know about it till recently which means I really miss entirely series of The Ultimate Fighter 1. It will be show every Monday evening on the Spike TV channel.

In my case, I always record it with my old Replay TV device this way I can watch it whenever I get chance to watch.

They just started 1st episode last week and three fighters already eliminated than its original plan. (split group - welterweight and heavyweight) It is tough than you really think. This is much bloodiest than regular boxing. Final player from welterweight and heavyweight will get three years contract and big bucks.

If you are not into this thing, dont bother to watch it. Their rules for fighting at UFC match is no poke eyes or kick their balls, the rest is up to you. Thats why its a lot more exciting than boxing.

UFC Rocks!
