Dana still drops f-bombs and I'm sure they don't give a fuck, just censor it). People get way too worked up over this kinda shit, but when there are countless movies with decapitations, gun shot wounds, and other horrific scenery they don't really say much. But yet they bleep out language, it's all funny really.

You're right, Sherdog isnt a major network and Dana can say whatever he wants to on there. I just think Dana should start the trend of cutting down on vulgar language himself as presiddent of UFC. It will only help in impriving the image of MMA. The sport seems brutal now, but it will be accepted eventually like boxing did and MMA will become mainstream where all the kids will begin to watch it. It seems crazy now, but once people accept it as a sport, MMA fighting will be seen as norm and how they present themselves to the mass media will be a big thing and become magnified. who knows? Maybe that is some years away and I am just getting ahead of myself.
off-topic, I thought it was cool Dana gave such an extensive interview to Sherdog.com. I know Sherdog is big among MMA net users, but I thought it was good of Dana to give them this 3 in the morning.

I really like Dana, and think he is a GREAT MMA promoter and buisness man; however, I don't think his language is becoming of a President and face of the UFC
