Is it weird to anyone else the amount of pickers here that pick the SF events more than the Bellator events?  Its hundreds.

Intersting statement there... I wonder what the demographics of Tapology are.. Are there more members from outside the US?

@Kalibo, I think there's more Americans than any other race by a long shot but for sure Tapology is one hell of a global community when you think about it. It really has a successful horizon when you think that it has members from so many places
