Make this sticky!!! Oklahoma fighter story...

The Thread titled Oklahoma Fighter story in my opinion should be sticky... I have read alot of threads in my day and up until a couple of months ago I haven't even posted I just read threads...

The Oklahoma fighter story thread is about a daycare worker by day and a cage fighter by night!!! There is a youtube video about it on the thread... and it explains it all... BUT IT IS SOME OF THE MOST POSITIVE PROMOTION OF THE SPORT I HAVE EVER SEEN!

Reasoning behind wanting it to be sticky:

This is some of the most positive promotion I HAVE EVER SEEN FOR THE SPORT OF MMA!!! I think sherdog viewers should be informed of this guy because he is promoting our sport in such a great way. He is showing that us fighters are not beer drinking drunks that went from bar fights to the cage and that most of us are civilized and its awesome for the sport! I posted in that thread that this guy is truly showing the dumbass politicians against MMA how its a sport full of elite athletes and we work hard and are good people!

I commend this southern guy for helping atleast the whole state of Oklahoma become more aware of the sport and I think that this guy has done the sport of MMA a big favor!!! Every fighter has to deal with the shit of people critizing them as being violent thugs who just continue to feed peoples bloodlust.... This guy shows that its not about that at all and really opens peoples eyes to a different aspect of the "SPORT!"

Anyways I may get flamed I may not but go find the thread first and watch the short video clip! Don't flame me until you see the thread and see how helpful this guy was in Oklahoma... I wish that it was on national news and not just in Oklahoma... It would have done alot of good here in Iowa and in my home state of Texas!

This is just my opinion and I hope some of the sherdog people agree so that most of the sherdog viewers can see this... We should all try to find some sort of way to positively promote our sport and this dude did a great job at that!
