Anyway, have you ever just not liked somebody? For some reason, I can't stand Dana's personality and I usually like arrogant pricks like James Toney, PBFand the old RJJ. It's just that I can't get used to the fact of a business owner being so unprofessional. He's the opposite of everything my college teaches me about running a business, and the fact that I know I would get fired in a heart beat if I was cursing and disrespecting my employees, other orgs, and potential clients. (generalizing) It just seems so much like wrestling,

Not to say Don King isn't a prick but I don't like Dana. I really don't care about Don enough to not like him.
That's the great thing about owning your own company (or co-owning it)
There isn't really anyone to fire you. Your boss are the people who buy/use your product and they vote with their dollars, so obviously the fans as a whole don't mind that Dana drops F-Bombs when he does interviews.

I understand that you are upset by having your ideals you are taught shattered by the real world, but hey, that's kind of how it is. I too vote for college teaching you the ideals and framework, and real life work experience teaching you the rest.

It has been my experience that your degree will serve as a formality, while your resume' is what will get you hired and paid.

That said, it seems like hating on Dana is the en vogue thing right now. Too me this is the left overs of Randy fans that have finally figured out that Randy is wrong, so they can't defend Randy, but instead attack Dana to feel better about it.

To all, get over it. Dana and the UFC have done a good job, and there are many good reasons that they are #1.
