Dr. Dre Beats by Monster Cable Headphones Review  

I just picked up the Dr. Dre Beats headphones by Monster Cable and I must say my feelings are mixed on these bad boys.

The Good:

The case they come in! Nic can back me up and say the case is awesome, it is shaped like a football and on a rainy day could take the place of your pigskin if you lose it.

The low end bass is spectacular, if you are an introvert and do not like hitting the clubs but want to feel like you are in one then pick these up.

The comfort level on these is off the charts, I would think between the ear cups and the amp in the headphones my ears would get hot but they do not. I could see myself wearing these on a flight for many hours without a problem.

THEY ARE LOUD, they apparently go as high as 115dbs which is just absurd. To test we put the headphones on a table and turned the source up to full volume and we could hear them from across the room.

The Bad:

They make music that is encoded poorly sound really bad. You will need minimum to rip at 320kb or possibly lossless to really hear these things go. I am on the fence if these headphones do the trick for anything but R&B, Hip Hop and Drum and Bass. Like I said before these headphones bring the club to your head.

Keith Jardine vs. Brandon Vera at UFC 89

Watch out England cause Keith Jardine and Brandon Vera are coming for you.

The fight has been announced by Keith on a radio show in New Mexico recently and I must say this one to me is nearly a wash. I think vegas odds will give Vera the edge, but Keith is an odd one. He fights with no fear and holds his hands like a monkey. I expect this fight to be nothing but standup which to me is great because with Leben and Bisping and this fight you are guaranteed to see a knockout

George St. Pierre Needs to Prove Himeself to Challenge Anderson Silva  

According to Anderson Silva's Manager/Translator Ed Soares "That sounds great a€¦ I think GSP is an incredible fighter. But I think GSP needs to prove himself. He still hasn't had a successful title defense [at 170 pounds]. I don't really feel that he deserves (a fight against Anderson Silva fight) yet. Go defend your title a few times and then we'll talk."

I totally agree.

Affliction Salaries approach 3.1 million Fedor only 300k!  

Here are the salary numbers for Affliction Banned. I assume Fedor got a share of the revenue generated by the PPV event because 300,000 makes no sense.

DePodesta gives his unbiased thoughts about Brian Giles  

I gotta hand it to Paul DePodesta. For being a guy who has ridden Billy Beane's coat tails right into sunny San Diego he puts together one heck of a blog. At the link below he discusses what went in to deciding that Brian Giles is unavailable at the trade deadline and what his plans are for the team moving forward.
