    Best episode by far (so far). Dillon getting stuck into Joanna lol. Also some amount of love from the boys and girls of the NYPD. Also sneakily spotted Andrew McGahon rocking a SUIT!!

    Deadly from Dillon. Haha. Good man. Get stuck in there. Conor is so good at that media stuff. Takes it all in his stride. I don't know how he does it. Constant cameras and photos and questions. He does have a lot more media distractions than any of the other guys which is always a worry. Good episode.

    /end rant.

    TL;DR : Conor - hire me i'll sort that sh1t out for you for free from my bedroom.

    This whole post is about writing and grammar. I get that you are interested in writing but this is a thread about Conor McGregor, on an MMA forum. Your post is completely off topic (yes its about Mac Life but the whole thing is about grammar..), there is an off topic thread if you want to post there but please stop posting unrelated stuff in other threads - we discussed this already over pm.

    Conor McGregor owns The Mac Life. This is a Conor McGregor thread.

    My post was highly critical about the standard of writing on the Mac Life and how it reflects on Conor McGregor.

    How in Gods name you can deem that "Off-Topic" is beyond me - it couldn't be more "On Topic". If there was a thread for Manchester United football club, which there is, then surely people are allowed to criticise articles from the official club website which reflect badly on the club.

    By your rationale deeming this "Off-Topic", nobody should even post Youtube links or articles from The Mac Life in this thread. The Mac Life is either fair game to discuss, analyse and debate (in here) or it isn't.

    You can't arbitrarily decide what elements of The Mac Life people wish to discuss or how they relate to Conor McGregor.

    Well, factually, you can and you just did by deleting my post (unfairly).

    You've been great to me over PM's and i respect your moderation but you've got this one very wrong imo. If you're deleting my post then you must continue to delete all Mac Life talk from this thread or post a warning to not discuss The Mac Life. This thread is either about Conor McGregor or it isn't. If it is, then it includes everything from fighting, Call of Duty, celebrity friends to the Mac Life (videos to pictures to authors to writing). If it isn't, then fair enough.

    By your logic you could also then legitimately discuss the web-design of McGregors website or similarly vaguely McGregor-related stuff.

    There has to be a line. Dont think too many people here wanna wade through pages of guff about what some people perceive to be bad grammar.

    No offence.

    Listen - I moved your post first of all its not deleted. Secondly you werent discussing MMA, you were off an a rant about the grammar of the articles. Posting a video of the Mac Life for people to watch, thats fine..discussing whats in the video also fine. Writing a long rant about where people put comma's, apostrophes and use capitals and dont..completely unrelated and off topic. This thread is about Conor McGregor - it isn't about creative writing. End of - discuss the topic in the off topic thread or pm me but the discussion on it here is over.

    100%.

    I think people should be allowed call out the basic design of The Mac life website if they want to. It's Conor McGregors website ffs. It relates 100% to him.

    Anyway, moving on.......

    lol class :)

    Press Conference 8pm Irish time.

    Still think it's bad form not having Chris Weidman on the main Presser, after all he has done campaigning to legalize the sport in NY.

    Another clear sign nobody gets what they deserve in mma, being the company guy does not pay.

    He's been absolutely shafted this week. I was a little emotional watching him yesterday. You can tell he imagined being center stage after the countless hours he invested campaigning to legalize it. Instead he's sat 5 feet from Jeremy Stephens with barely any mainstream media coverage. Sad.

    He's a big lad, I'm sure if he beats Yoel he'll get to headline in NYC for the title.

    Ronda did as much if not more than him to legalize MMA in NY and she is also not on the card.

    Lol.

    Told ya. Something fishy going down! He's nowhere to be seen this week. For someone with Conors famous loyalty, it's perplexing that he wouldn't have the man who is at least 25% responsible for his entire career not being there. Without Egan there is no McGregor getting involved in MMA (in all likelihood). Ok without John there's defo no McGregor but still Egan is huge.

    If he's not there saturday night there is something seriously fishy going down. I was whispered a rumour by someone who claims to know Egan but i'm gonna wait and see if he shows up Saturday first.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,683 ✭✭✭Subcomandante Marcos


    Plot twise. Egan is the father.

    you cant just tease us like that! :D

    I seem to remember artem calling him ''tv tom'' or something along those lines at one stage, think it was his severe sessions episode. Id say the problem, If there even is one, is money.

    Re : chris Weidman

    I heard dana white going on about Khabib saying there's no way he cannot give him a title shot, he's worked so hard, or words to that affect. White says it's the right thing to do!! what a snake he is.. as if he's an authority on the RIGHT thing to do.

    It's sometimes easy to forget how big a star he is. I remember years ago being on Grafton Street 4 days before Xmas and i spotted Michael Buble skulking around and got a quick picture. Then a huge group of carol singers (girls) spotted him and the whole street went mental chasing him up and down for photos, autographs and the like.

    It's that level of fame now and continues to grow. He's got people like Drake and Kanye West and Ronaldo messaging HIM first because they're fans. I read an article somewhere a while back saying for athletes and celebrities, the UFC is their sport. It's the "In" thing right now and Conor is top of the pile.

    Great to see Andrew McGahon with a slick haircut, wearing nice clothes and happy. He deserves it.

    Great episode :) ive watched that and the mob one and cant see Andrew, where abouts is he ?

    Dillons a savage

    He's in the last 2 on the Mac Life. He just cut his hair. His ponytail is gone. Look on the basketball court he's standing behind Dillon.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,924 ✭✭✭wonderfullife


    €2 is def within my budget lol but there's a lot of people unhappy that he's charging for this. I guess people are just used to emoji's being free.

    As i said earlier, and i won't write an essay again (lol), ....fastest way to alienate your own fans is to exploit them.

    Anyway, presser due up in 20 mins....... I'm gonna throw out a wild prediction that he'll be less than 15 mins late.

    He's not charging for this app. AppMoji, Inc is.
