WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross updated the blog section of JRsbarbq.com. The following items are among the highlights.

-Ross on UFC 109: "UFC 109 is (tonight) in Vegas on PPV. I wish I was going to be there but I'll definitely be watching on pay per view. Obviously the focal point of this event will be the fight pitting two MMA HOF'ers going at it when former Oklahoma State mat star and MMA legend Randy Couture battles another veteran and legend, Mark Coleman. Coleman has so much to gain professionally and personally if he can beat Couture which MMA fans no doubt are aware and is what makes this main event such an emotional one."

Powell's POV: This is as close as we've come to having a senior circuit in UFC. Don't get me wrong, they are both great fighters and it should be a fun bout, but if someone had predicted back in 2000 that these two would headline a show in 2010 you would have thought they were insane.

-Ross on a pet peeve: "Another small pet peeve are the 'logos' some wrestlers have on the ring attire that not even the DEA could decipher. If logos can't be ID'ed on TV then what value does it have. If wrestler's logos do have a meanings, then why don't the broadcasters tell us?"

Powell's POV: I haven't spotted too many logos on pro wrestlers that I can't decipher, but MMA is another story. Some of the ad logos on the fighters gear is so small that I wonder why the company would even bother advertising since no one is going to see their product name.

-Ross on Jack Brisco: "The memorial service for WWE HOF'er Jack Brisco will be this Thursday in Tampa at 1 p.m. at St. Lawrence Church, 5225 North Himes. I expect to see many friends of the Brisco's there to pay their respects to the best pure athlete to ever be NWA Champion.
