    Well, what is it?


    Here are my top three:

    Jesus didn't tap
    Well this is a strange one. I thought Jesus didn't tap was a club for Christian MMA fighters. As it turns out, Jesus didn't tap is a for-profit MMA clothing line put together by Christians. What's more Christian than sanctioned hand to hand combat? Well, advertising! Anyways, Jesus COULDN'T tap, his hands were nailed to a cross, but these guys are throwing money around like Jesus flipping lenders tables in the church, and we're seeing their gear all over TV and PPV. Snap, nap, or tap (or pray?).

    Condom Depot
    For the man who has to order his condoms by the crate. The site markets itself as being run by 'the undisputed champions of safe sex.' Why wasn't I made aware of this contest? I can't say all of my conquests were against top contenders... On the site you can buy condoms in quantities exceeding 3,000. I mean, at some point they basically have to admit they are just a byproduct of the brothel industry, right? You can order condoms from condom depot and have them delivered in a plain, unmarked package with "Go Live LLC" as the shipper. Makes sense if you're buying Enrique Iglasias extra-small jimmy hats but what if you WANT the postman to know you need Trojan Magnum XL's shipped to your door in the 100s?

    Pitbull Mortage School
    "What in the world could that be?" was Joe Rogan's response to seeing Pitbull Mortage School.com on Tito Ortiz's shorts in one of his later UFC fights.

    Aside from having a website designed by an underachieving 14-year old in 1997, Pitbull Mortgage School has by far the most ludicrous name for a seminar provider I have heard in my life. If that's two strikes, the third has to be the fact that a DVD of their presentation costs $600. If I'm going to spend the equivilent of one mortgage payment on a DVD it'd better star me and Megan Fox. Just saying.


    Can you think of more?

    I couldn't even find a site for that one :D

    they were a sponsor for years, then Toyo Tires came in.

    I think even at the UFC 50's and 60's Rick's Tire barn was mentioned when they listed their sponsor's, right along with Micky's Fine Malt Liquor. Fine Malt Liquor, that's an oxymoron right? Like honest politician :D
